Manual Therapy

Acupuncture
Acupuncture (from Lat. acus, "needle" (noun), and pungere, "prick" (verb)) or in Standard Mandarin, zhēn jiǔ (針灸 lit: needle - moxibustion) is a technique of inserting and manipulating filiform needles into "acupuncture points" on the body. According to acupuncture theory, this will restore health and well-being, and is particularly good at treating pain. The definition and characterization of these points is standardized by the World Health Organization (WHO). Acupuncture is thought to have originated in China and is most commonly associated with Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Different types of acupuncture (Japanese, Korean, and classical Chinese acupuncture) are practiced and taught throughout the world.
Laser Therapy
The laser-based treatment is a modern alternative to classical acupuncture and is especially applicable in cases when patients can't stand or feel uncomfortable in close proximity of needles. The effect is almost identical and even higher in certain cases. When combined with traditional acupuncture the laser therapy can be a powerful healing tool, known as hybrid acupuncture.
