Manipulative Therapies

Acupuncture can also assess and resolve the background to a problem and so ensure that the improvement gained through manipulation is permanent.

For example, a patient who tends to suffer recurring lower back problems, which osteopathy could relieve only temporarily, could find that concurrent acupuncture treatment reduced the need to return for manipulation.

Massage is traditionally taught in China as an adjunct to acupuncture, and makes an excellent complement.
