Ancient Healing, Modern Wellness Care
Acupuncture at Ackers Chiropractic uses fine, precise needling to ease pain, reduce stress, and support the body's natural healing, delivered by qualified TCM practitioners at our Taylors Lakes and Gladstone Park clinics.
Our Solution for Pain, Stress, and Poor Sleep
When chronic pain, stress, or restless sleep aren't resolving on their own, acupuncture offers a gentle, evidence-informed way forward. Our qualified TCM practitioners insert fine, sterile needles at specific points to stimulate the nervous system, ease pain, and support the body's own healing, at both our Taylors Lakes and Gladstone Park clinics. Many patients feel deeply relaxed during and after their session.
It suits chronic pain, headaches, joint or muscle tension, stress, and sleep difficulties, and is equally suited to patients recovering from injury or wanting to complement their chiropractic treatment.

What sets our approach apart is a genuinely integrated care model: acupuncture sits alongside chiropractic treatment under one roof, with HICAPS on-site at both clinics so eligible rebates are claimed immediately, making it easier to fit acupuncture into your ongoing care plan.
