Physiotherapy Services: The Benefits of Bulk Billed Acupuncture and Massage

Acupuncture is the ancient Chinese medicine which is designed to re-establish the body’s natural flow of energy, and relieve emotional and physical blocks. Sterilized, hair-thin needles are inserted through the skin at specific, strategic points of the body, to remove blocks and boost the body’s inherent ability to heal itself. Acupuncture can help in regulating your nervous and hormonal systems and is said to help boost the immune system. Acupuncture re-establishes or balances the flow of energy, known as chi or qi (chee) to relieve emotional and physical stagnation. Needles are used to rectify the blood and energy area of the affected area.

How does acupuncture work?

Acupuncture works by stimulating and promoting the body’s inherent healing abilities for treating many common ailments including digestive conditions, neurological conditions, and respiratory conditions. People often use acupuncture as part of physiotherapy and wellness regimes for a range of reasons, including boosting immunity during cold and flu season, relieving stress improving health and wellbeing.

For those who use bulk billed physiotherapy services, your local service provider may also offer bulk billed acupuncture. Auscare Physio, based in North Lakes, Queensland, offers bulk billed physiotherapy as well as massage and acupuncture in North Lakes. If you are looking for North Lakes acupuncture services, Auscare Physio is one service provider who offers bulk billed services.

If your body pain is uncomplicated with no prominent causes, acupuncture could be a good option for you. Consulting your physiotherapist, GP or healthcare practitioner is a good way to investigate if acupuncture is right for you.  

For many, acupuncture can help in bringing the body into balance, allowing it to function at its optimal state.             

During an acupuncture session, you might feel a momentary prick when the needle goes in, which soon turns into a dull pressure or tingling around the area.

How could acupuncture benefit you?

In recent years, bulk-billed physiotherapy has helped in bringing acupuncture to the masses in Australia. Acupressure massage therapy is used by local North Lakes massage and physiotherapy practices and national practices Australia-wide, to stimulate and activate the body’s own healing energies to prevent illnesses. The practitioner will press on specific points to promote energy flow to a part of the body that causes you discomfort. This allows you to heal more quickly. They will target the local points where you are experiencing pain or tension to relieve the discomfort. The practitioners can also stimulate trigger points to relieve tension in another part of your body which is sometimes far from the area they are touching.

Massage to reduce your physical and mental stress

Massage therapy may be used as part of a bulk billed physiotherapy regime and as a  treatment in combination with other health services, and also for other health conditions such as poor circulation, insomnia, and shoulder and neck tension. Massage, as well as physiotherapy can reduce bodily and mental stress and relieve muscle tension, by increasing the blood flow and relaxing muscles. If you live in the North Lakes area, you can find North Lakes physiotherapy clinics who offer bulk billing physiotherapy and massage in North Lakes. .

Different types of massage

Therapeutic massage pertains to the manual kneading and manipulation of connective tissue and muscles. The kneading of various tissues benefits the ligaments, joints, tendons, skin and other organs throughout the body. Instead of needles, the therapist will use their hands, fingers and other mechanical aids to conduct various types of massages, such as deep tissue massage, Swedish massage, sport massage, Shiatsu massage and reflexology. Massage also provides a range of other benefits such as relief from headaches, improvement in depression, improved mental clarity, allergy relief and enhanced immune system functionality.

Massage is a generally accepted method of health and wellbeing improvement as it relaxes the muscles, provides instant relief and helps your joints to remain at an optimum level. Besides relieving pain, massage also helps in improving associated symptoms such as circulation and muscle relaxation, improvement in range of motion and other benefits. As massage also clears the mind, it can also leave you with a deep sense of relaxation and clear mindedness.  

Can massage and acupuncture be combined?

Using both massage and acupuncture together can help in enhancing the effectiveness of each therapy, resulting in a more complete treatment. Massage can be used after acupuncture as part of an integrated therapy to enhance the benefits. Both therapies work at different body levels and combining them can bring maximum and long-term relief to body aches. Your blood and lymph flow can be improved, resulting in feeling lighter and more energetic.

Many people are amazed by how relaxed they feel after receiving physiotherapy treatments, massage or acupuncture.
