Effective Relief from Excessive Sweating with Injectable Therapy

Acupuncture is a time-tested, holistic therapy that supports the body’s natural ability to heal and rebalance itself. At The Canmore Clinic in Dunfermline, we offer professional acupuncture treatments as part of our integrative approach to physical and emotional wellness.

Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic pain, stress, hormonal imbalance or digestive issues, our acupuncture sessions are designed to restore equilibrium, improve energy flow, and help you feel more at ease — both physically and mentally.

What Is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), involving the insertion of very fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body. These points lie along energy channels (meridians) and are selected to address imbalances and support the function of your organs, nervous system, and immune response.

Modern research suggests acupuncture can stimulate the release of endorphins, improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote nervous system regulation — making it a valuable tool in both physical and mental health care.

What Can Acupuncture Help With?

Acupuncture is commonly used to support:

  • Chronic pain (e.g. back, neck, joints)
  • Migraines and headaches
  • Stress, anxiety, and burnout
  • Menstrual and menopausal symptoms
  • Insomnia and fatigue
  • Digestive disorders (e.g. IBS, bloating)
  • Fertility support and hormonal balance
  • Post-viral fatigue or long COVID symptoms

What to Expect

Your session will begin with a consultation to explore your symptoms, lifestyle, and goals. Based on this, a personalised treatment plan will be created, including:

  • Gentle placement of ultra-fine needles at carefully selected acupuncture points
  • Relaxation time while the needles remain in place (typically 20–30 minutes)
  • Optional lifestyle advice to support your health between sessions

Acupuncture is not painful — most people describe a sense of deep relaxation during treatment. Many patients feel benefits after just one session, with cumulative effects over time.
