Acupuncture Techniques We Use

From classical needle therapy to electroacupuncture and cupping, our Rosedale acupuncturists choose the approach after assessing you, not before.

Traditional Acupuncture

Fine needle therapy targeting meridian points to restore Qi flow, relieve pain, and support the body's natural healing. The foundation of our acupuncture practice at Rosedale.

Sa-am Acupuncture

Classical Korean technique that works by balancing the five internal organ systems for deep pain relief, stress reduction, and systemic healing. Specialised by Mike Lee with 20 years experience.

Cupping Therapy

Traditional suction cupping applied to the back and shoulders to improve blood circulation, reduce inflammation, and release deep muscle tension. Available as a standalone or complementary treatment.

Dry Needling

Trigger point therapy using fine needles to release tight muscle bands and deactivate pain points. Often used alongside acupuncture for sports injuries, neck stiffness and tension headaches.

Electroacupuncture

Gentle electrical stimulation delivered through acupuncture needles to enhance treatment depth and duration. Your practitioner will only suggest it if it suits you and you are comfortable with it.

Your First Acupuncture Visit, What to Expect

We make your first acupuncture appointment easy and comfortable. We'll explain everything before a single needle is placed.

Book Your Appointment

Book online at any time or call 09 600 1939. No GP referral required for ACC claims. We're open 7 days including weekends.

Tongue & Pulse Diagnosis

Your practitioner begins with a comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine assessment, including tongue examination and pulse diagnosis, to understand your body's current state.

Health History & Goals

We discuss your symptoms, lifestyle, sleep, and health goals. Acupuncture treats the whole person, context matters. You'll feel heard before treatment begins.

Your First Treatment

Fine, sterile needles are placed gently at specific points. Most patients feel minimal discomfort, many describe a sense of calm and relaxation during their session.

Personalised Care Plan

Following your first visit, you'll receive a clear treatment plan with expected outcomes and timeframes. We'll recommend the right frequency and be honest about what acupuncture can and cannot achieve.
