Golf, tennis, pulling up weeds in the back garden \u2013 summer\u2019s here now and we all want to get outside, whatever our idea of fun is.

I\u2019m a member of the<\/span> Acupuncture Association of Chartered Physiotherapists<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>and I often use acupuncture to relieve pain for my patients in Petersfield and Liphook for anything from<\/span> tennis elbow<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>and<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Achilles tendinopathy<\/b><\/a> to a gardener\u2019s<\/span> lower back pain<\/b><\/a> and relieving muscle spasm.<\/span><\/p>\n

Acupuncture can also be particularly helpful in treatment of<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>osteoarthritis<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/span>for pain relief.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Chinese have used acupuncture for thousands of years to treat anything from infertility and pain to menopause symptoms and skin conditions. I use a combination of Traditional Chinese and\u00a0Western acupuncture. <\/span><\/p>\n
