Acupuncture Techniques We Use

Our near-Albany clinic offers a comprehensive range of acupuncture modalities — from classical Chinese methods to modern dry needling — all available under ACC or privately.

01

Traditional Chinese Acupuncture

Meridian-based needle placement following classical Chinese medicine principles. Addresses root causes of pain, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, and internal conditions. Led by Dr Robin Won PhD with 26 years of clinical mastery.

02

Dry Needling (Trigger Point Therapy)

Precise needle insertion into myofascial trigger points to release muscle knots and restore full range of motion. Highly effective for sports injuries, chronic tension, and repetitive strain — commonly paired with chiropractic care.

Electroacupuncture

Low-frequency electrical stimulation applied through acupuncture needles to amplify therapeutic effect. Particularly effective for chronic pain, neurological conditions, and accelerated injury recovery.

Cosmetic / Facial Acupuncture

Natural facial rejuvenation using fine needles to stimulate collagen production, improve circulation, and reduce fine lines. No surgery, no downtime — a holistic anti-ageing solution at our Rosedale clinic, 5 minutes from Albany.
