Acupuncture in Brisbane – A Holistic Path to Healing
At Holistic Physio, we believe true healing happens when the body, mind, and spirit are supported together. Acupuncture is one of the oldest and most effective natural therapies in the world, and it continues to help people restore balance, reduce pain, and improve overall wellbeing.
Our clinic in Highgate Hill, Brisbane offers Acupuncture treatments that are evidence-based, gentle, and tailored to each person’s unique needs. Whether you’re seeking relief from acute or chronic pain, support for women’s health, fertility or pregnancy, or help with stress and sleep, acupuncture can be an effective part of your healing journey.
What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), using very fine, sterile needles inserted into specific points on the body. These points regulate the nervous system, improve circulation, and restore the smooth flow of energy (Qi). Modern research shows that acupuncture can also regulate hormones, reduce inflammation, and activate the body’s natural healing processes.
Conditions Acupuncture May Help With
At Holistic Physio, we commonly support patients with Acupuncture for:
- Musculoskeletal pain – pain relief for back pain, neck pain, sciatica, arthritis, frozen shoulder, headaches, migraines, sports injuries
- Women’s health & fertility – painful periods, trying to conceive, menopause symptoms, IVF support, pregnancy care, natural pregnancy induction
- Stress, anxiety, and fatigue – helping calm the nervous system and restore energy

By combining Acupuncture with Physiotherapy, Chinese herbal medicine, Clinical Pilates and holistic care, we aim to address the root cause of your health concerns, not just the symptoms.

Acupuncture at Holistic Physio – Ancient Healing for Modern Stress
At Holistic Physio, we understand the toll that modern life takes on the body. Chronic stress, fatigue, poor sleep, and emotional strain are increasingly common – and often interconnected. That’s why we offer multiple therapies as part of our “whole-body approach” to healing, helping clients restore balance and vitality from the inside out.
What Is Acupuncture and Why It Works
Rooted in traditional Chinese medicine, acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that stimulates the body’s natural healing response. By gently inserting ultra-fine needles into specific points along energy pathways (meridians), we help regulate the nervous system, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. It’s not just about symptom relief – it’s about treating the root cause of imbalance.
Stress Relief and Holistic Recovery
Acupuncture is especially effective for stress-related conditions such as anxiety, insomnia, digestive issues, and chronic pain. At Holistic Physio, we use acupuncture to calm the mind, regulate cortisol levels, and support parasympathetic recovery. Clients often report deeper sleep, improved mood, and a renewed sense of clarity after treatment.
Bridging Ancient Wisdom with Modern Wellness
Unlike conventional treatments that focus on isolated symptoms, these therapies encourage the body to heal itself. It’s a gentle yet powerful therapy that aligns perfectly with our integrated care model – combining physiotherapy, herbal medicine, and clinical Pilates to support long-term wellness.
Led by Sandra Tan, our clinic blends decades of experience with genuine compassion. Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, burnout, or emotional fatigue, acupuncture at Holistic Physio offers a safe, effective path to recovery. It’s more than a treatment – it’s a reconnection to your body’s natural rhythm and resilience.
