Complementary Care for Parkinson’s
Parkinson’s disease brings unique challenges, from stiffness and tremors to fatigue and mood changes. While not a cure, acupuncture can offer supportive care to improve comfort, mobility, and emotional wellbeing.
Common Parkinson’s Symptoms
Parkinson's is a condition that affects patients differently. The early warning signs often start quietly, then progress to a much more complex and chronic set of symptoms. Here is a common list of symptoms I treat:
- Tremors
- Muscle stiffness
- Balance and mobility issues
- Fatigue and poor sleep
- Anxiety, depression, or low mood
So lovely to meet Josh today for my first visit. I already feel an improvement and am looking forward to my next Accupuncture appointment. The centre is pleasant and the staff welcoming and friendly. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for treatment.

How Acupuncture Helps
Acupuncture aims to understand how Parkinson's presents for each patient, whether it be a 'Wind' condition or a 'Blood Deficiency'. Its true purpose is to treat how it affects your life as a unique individual.
With this, patients often find that acupuncture:
- Relieves stiffness
- Improves mobility
- Reduces tremors
- Increases sleep and relaxation
- Improves the mood
What to Expect
- Gentle, supportive acupuncture tailored to your unique symptoms
- Holistic assessment of your presentation covering everything from posture, mental health, and more
- Complementary support to your typical neurological care
