Our therapists are registered with their respective governing bodies... Acupuncture Acupuncture involves the use of fine needles placed in specific points around the body to help relieve pain and encourage healing. As a whole, acupuncture aims to restore equilibrium within the body by promoting good health and function. Acupuncture at Allsports Therapy Our Sports Therapists & Physiotherapists are trained in the use of Acupuncture in common musculoskeletal disorders. We use a combination of traditional Chinese techniques alongside a modern westernised approach to assess and treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions such as joint pain, chronic conditions and muscular tightness to help speed up the healing process. Our therapists commonly use this as an additional treatment to other forms of treatments such as exercise, sports massage, advice and electrotherapy.

Very professional and friendly I would strongly recommended him. Adele Seager 25/05/2021 James has been 'maintaining' my knees for over 10 years following a partial knee replacement. His expertise and knowledge is superb. I have regular acupuncture and treatment and as a result have been able to lead an active lifestyle, including skiing! I would highly recommend to anyone, James is professional, knowledgeable & incredibly friendly. Joe 22/05/2021 Very pleased with the service I recieved for my Posterior Tibial issues. The issue has dramatically improved in a much shorter time frame than I expected. Many thanks. Andy Brown 10/03/2021 I had never been to a physio before I went to Charlotte this year, and she immediately put me at ease and explained the procedures comprehensively. Having struggled for weeks with intense and debilitating knee pain, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I am now completely pain-free and am more active than ever. Highly recommend! Thank you Charlotte! Paul Shepherd 05/03/2021 A very professional and friendly experience. Treatment has made a real difference to my mobility and strength following an injury that was recovering slowly. Thank you! Paul Marden 11/02/2021 I came to Allsports after struggling to find a physio that had availability when I hurt my back at Christmas. Within one treatment the recovery was huge, and 4 sessions on I'm virtually pain free. Geoff Wilson 27/01/2021 Very professional friendly service. My football injury was diagnosed and treated quickly and sucessfully by Charlotte who also specified excellent homework to speed recovery. Thoroughly recommended. Jolly Holly 09/12/2020 Having had upper back pain for well over 10 years and having tried a variety of suggested therapies/treatments (including 4 different physios, and osteopath and a chiropractor), none of which have made any long term difference to my pain, I turned to Allsports therapy as a final attempt to help my pain after many years of unsuccessful treatments. I was so impressed with the service that I got, Charlotte is friendly and welcoming, and easy to talk to. From my very first session she provided my with a full MOT for my back. Not only did she manipulate my back, but she also gave me a sports massage and really worked into my muscles to loosen them up. She suggested we tried acupuncture, which I was a little nervous about, but she reassured me, and the treatment was painless (barely felt it!) and effective. Without Allsports therapy, I would have paid for 3 separate treatment sessions for these three skills, but Charlotte has them all at her fingertips, and utilises them as needed after her assessment, therefore saving me a fair amount of money. Charlotte encouraged self care/ treatment in between the treatments, and provided a list of daily exercises and stretches. I have since been back to Charlotte several times and each time I come away feeling much more relaxed, comfortable and pain free. I would highly recommend Charlotte and Allsports therapy. If you think you've unsuccessfully exhausted all the options for your pain management, give Allsports Therapy a try. I think you will be nicely surprised... Robert Constant 11/10/2020 James does a fantastic job at full-body fitness (and recovery from injury), seriously complementing anyone’s cardio fitness. I had never bothered with a personal trainer, but now I see I was 100% wrong all these years. Let the professionals assess what you need to work on. Paul was also brilliant as the physio in the early days as I recovered from a cycling injury, and the combination of both at Allsports is outstanding. I could not recommend them more highly. Georgia Aviss 03/10/2020 Monika was really welcoming and professional. She took the time to discuss where I was needing treatment and focused on those areas. The massage was very effective as there was significant improvement after the first consultation. I would highly recommend Monika for anyone in need of a deep tissue massage/ or has a sports injury!

Both our Sports Therapists and Physiotherapists are trained to provide acupuncture and can therefore offer it as part of their treatment modalities. Can I have acupuncture if i'm planning on giving blood? There are strict guidelines within some blood donor collection services. Our Sports Therapists aren’t able to register with the HCPC and therefore may not meet your local service’s criteria. For this reason, it is likely that you shouldn’t give blood for 6 months following having acupuncture treatment. Please check with your local blood donation service as to their criteria as ask your Therapist prior to receiving acupuncture if you plan on giving blood in the near future. I'm fearful of needles, should I have acupuncture? If we deem acupuncture may be of help, based on your condition, your Therapist will always explain their reasoning as to why they would recommend its use, talk you through the risks vs potential benefits and what to expect. They will then ask for your consent prior to treatment. If you’re happy with this, they will proceed with the treatment. If you are quite anxious about the treatment, they may chose to treat you in lying and apply one needle, so that you can experience what it is like. That may be it for this session. Alternatively, they may talk you through the process and give you time to consider this, then if you would like to proceed with the treatment upon your follow up, then they can administer the treatment then. If you at any time would not like to receive the treatment (or any treatment) for any reason, this is no problem at all! Just let your Therapist know it’s not for you, and they will go through further options with you. Arrange an appointment
