Medical Acupuncture, or 'Dry Needling' is a variation of Traditional Acupuncture. It is common practice in the UK of many Doctors, Osteopaths, Chiropractors and Physiotherapists due to it's evidence based research.  It uses anatomy and physiology to develop the correct treatment approach. It manages movement ​impairments and neuromuscular pain by addressing myofascial trigger points, stimulating muscles and connective tissues through the use of filiform needles.  
​A post graduate medical qualification is usually required to practice Medical Acupuncture in the UK.
