What is Medical Acupuncture?

Medical Acupuncture is a modern adaptation of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), bridging ancient techniques with contemporary anatomy and physiology. Unlike traditional methods that focus solely on "energy flow," Medical Acupuncture targets the nervous system to produce a physiological change.


At Redux Movement, we specialize in Neurofunctional Acupuncture. This involves inserting fine, sterile needles into specific anatomical sites—nerve pathways, motor points, and muscle insertions to stimulate the body’s natural painkillers (endorphins) and modulate how your brain perceives pain.


Does it hurt? This is the most common question. The answer is no. The needles are hair-thin. Most patients feel only a slight tap, followed by a dull "ache" or heaviness, which is a sign that the nerve is being effectively stimulated.

The Science: Why We Use Electricity

We often combine needling with Electro-Acupuncture. By attaching small clips to the needles and running a gentle, painless current through them, we can:
