Neuro-Acupuncture
in Ottawa
What is Neuro Acupuncture?
Neuro-acupuncture combines principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern neurofunctional understanding. The approach focuses on supporting nerve pathways, calming the nervous system, and promoting healthy functional regulation within the body.
This gentle method may be used to help ease tension, support circulation, encourage mobility, and improve overall neurological balance. Individual experiences vary.
At our Ottawa acupuncture clinic, neuro-acupuncture is offered as part of an integrative approach to nervous-system support. Techniques such as electro-acupuncture, scalp acupuncture, Zhu acupuncture, cupping therapy, and microcurrent stimulation may be incorporated to enhance regulation and promote recovery of functional patterns.
