"11/10 would recommend. I went to see Elly for an issue with my knee and not only has she helped immensely with that but she has really helped me out in other aspects as well. You can really feel that she cares about her clients and the work she is doing which i believe makes such a difference in the treatment itself. I always leave feeling great and my knee has gotten so much better."

How can acupuncture and dry-needling help an ACC injury?

Acupuncture stimulates the secretion of natural healing proteins and immune factors within the body to encourage fast repair of injured tissue. It improves blood flow, reduces nerve activation to control pain, and prevents ongoing inflammation and swelling to enhance fast recovery.

Acupuncture also promotes the production of endorphins to help control the pain experience and create a deep sense of relaxation during and after treatment.

What treatments can acupuncture assist with?

  • Neck, back and shoulder, and elbow injuries.
  • Neck, spine, and disk injury and inflammation (with or without sciatic pain).
  • Hip, knee, and ankle injuries.
  • Muscle and tendon pulls and tear injuries.
  • Sprains and strains.
  • Repetitive strain injuries.
  • Dislocation and fracture recovery.
  • Whiplash and concussion recovery.

What do your ACC services include?​

  • Multi-therapy approach to recovery (where required we use acupuncture, cupping, and other therapies all in one session to get that healing happening fast!)
  • Chinese medicine lifestyle and home-based treatment guidance to support recovery.
  • Accessible after-hours appointments.
  • Full 1 hour treatment times to ensure adequate delivery of therapies and optimal communication so you understand what’s happening during treatment and how to help yourself at home.
