Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves inserting fine needles into specific points of the body to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and restore balance. In physiotherapy, it is often used to manage musculoskeletal pain, release muscle tension, and promote natural healing by stimulating the nervous system.
