We bring together the best of ancient techniques and modern research. Our experienced practitioners care about your comfort and results.
What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is an ancient healing method where very thin, sterile needles are gently placed into specific points on your body. Although it might sound uncomfortable, most people find it totally painless. In fact, many clients feel so relaxed during the session that they fall asleep (Vickers et al., Arch Intern Med, 2012).
This practice began in China over 5,000 years ago. Since then, it’s evolved into new forms blending old wisdom with modern innovations so we can personalize your treatment and still keep the essence of this time-tested therapy.

Thank youPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been struggling with lower back pain for the past 5 years, and only after seeing Ksenya did I finally start feeling real improvement. Ksenya is a true expert and a very attentive physiotherapist. I genuinely enjoy my sessions — nothing feels routine or “one-size-fits-all.” She uses different techniques depending on how I feel and always adapts the treatment. She carefully tracks any changes and keeps adjusting the plan, which makes a huge difference. After many unsuccessful attempts, I’m really glad I found someone who truly cares and puts so much effort into helping her patients.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 stars!

How Does Acupuncture Work?
Your body has over 500 recognized acupuncture points, and each one can affect different systems in your body—nervous, endocrine, hormonal, and vascular. By gently stimulating these spots, we help your body tap into its own ability to heal (National Institutes of Health Consensus Statement, 1997).
Acupuncture basically “reprograms” your body by directing energy (often called Qi) toward areas that need support. When needles are placed in the right points, your central nervous system releases chemicals and hormones that help change the way you feel pain and boost your sense of physical and emotional wellness (Liu et al., J Tradit Chin Med Sci, 2019).
What Can Acupuncture Help With?
Acupuncture is well-known for managing a wide range of pain-related issues, including:
- Painful Obstruction Syndrome/Arthritis
- Lumbago/Sciatica
- Neck Sprain/Stiff Neck
- Sprains
It’s also known to help with facial and cranial concerns, such as:
- Facial Pain/Trigeminal Neuralgia
- Facial Paralysis/Bell’s Palsy
- Headaches
- Hypochondria Pain
Research shows that acupuncture can be as good as or even better than standard treatments for many pain conditions, making it a great low-risk option to try on its own or along with other treatments (McDonald & Janz, J Acupunct Meridian Stud, 2017).
Why Visit Our Acupuncture Clinic in Newmarket?
Regular acupuncture sessions can do more than just ease pain—they might help you cut back on pain meds, too. According to studies in JAMA Internal Medicine (Vickers et al., 2012), acupuncture is effective for chronic issues like back and neck pain, osteoarthritis, and headaches.
How Acupuncture Provides Relief:
- Less Pain, More Comfort: By working on specific acupoints, acupuncture helps fine-tune how your body handles pain, making it easier to move and feel good day-to-day.
- A Better Flow of Signals in Your Body: Acupuncture may help your body’s internal signals flow more smoothly, leading to the release of endorphins (your body’s natural “feel-good” chemicals) and giving your immune system an extra boost.
- Your Body’s Own Painkillers: Acupuncture encourages your body to release its own opioids, which helps you feel less pain and more relaxed—naturally.
- Balancing Brain Chemistry: By influencing neurotransmitters and hormones, acupuncture can affect how your brain and body handle pain, as well as things like blood pressure and body temperature.
More Ways Acupuncture Can Help You Feel Better
Acupuncture isn’t just about pain relief. It can also help with:
- Mental and Emotional Health: Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia.
- Digestion and Weight Issues: Stomach troubles, Weight Management
