Reach your health and training goals
with Acupuncture and Remedial Therapies (Massage)
Does chronic pain prevent you from living your life to the fullest?
Whether it is a sore and stiff neck from a stressful job or
that old knee injury that prevents you from reaching your PB,
we understand your need to perform in your sport and at work and
can help you manage weaknesses and problem areas which commonly arise.
We strongly believe in the value of an active lifestyle for a healthy body and mind and have been supporting working professionals and athletes in reaching their personal health and performance goals for over 10 years.
Being part of the passionate powerlifting community at Fortitude Barbell,
we have a special interest in
physical performance and pain management.
Our skills translate to the treatment of issues arising from work related overuse and postural issues emerging in home office and corporate work environments.
Cupping
Cupping is an ancient technique of using cups to apply suction to the tissues. This is a great way to stretch out the fascia, increase the local circulation and loosen tight muscles.
Acupuncture &
Dry Needling
At Bowen Hills Acupuncture and Remedial Therapies, we apply acupuncture according to the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and modern anatomical theory. Ken is a registered acupuncturist and has also trained in motor point acupuncture and trigger point dry needling.
Remedial Massage
Ken has a Cert IV in Anmo Tuina traditional Chinese remedial massage and has over 10 years experience using manual therapy to relieve tension and pain. To achieve the best outcomes in our remedial therapies, we integrate the use of modern devices such as massage guns.
Moxibustion
Moxibustion is a method of creating localized warmth over the tissues, traditionally through burning the herb mugwort. At our clinic, we use smokeless moxibustion.
Bowen Hills Acupuncture and Remedial Therapies Modalities
We blend in Chinese medicine acupuncture with remedial massage therapy. With a special focus on trigger point release in musculoskeletal conditions, we integrate the use of electrostimulation (electroacupuncture), massage gun therapy, cupping and guasha.
