Acupuncture
Burnaby Metrotown & Coquitlam Square
Acupuncture is a traditional healing practice rooted in Chinese medicine that uses ultra-fine needles inserted into specific points on the body to restore balance, reduce pain, and support natural healing. This gentle, therapeutic approach helps regulate the flow of Qi—your body’s vital energy—while influencing the nervous system, circulation, and muscular function.
At Motion Pro Health, our Registered Acupuncturists provide treatment in a calm, supportive environment designed to help you relax, reset, and feel restored. Each session is customized to your symptoms, lifestyle, and goals so that treatment is both effective and deeply grounding.

What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points on the body that correspond to channels of energy and physiological function. When these points are activated, the body’s natural healing responses are enhanced—reducing inflammation, calming the nervous system, improving circulation, and helping restore balance to organ systems.
Modern research shows that acupuncture influences the brain, nerves, and hormones, helping regulate pain perception, stress responses, and overall wellness. Treatments are gentle and highly personalized, making acupuncture appropriate for a wide range of conditions, from chronic pain and tension to digestive or emotional concerns.
Sessions typically include ultra-thin, sterile needles, as well as complementary techniques such as cupping, gua sha, or acupressure when helpful.
How Acupuncture Helps
Acupuncture is widely used for both physical and emotional health. Many individuals experience improvements in pain, stress levels, sleep, and overall well-being.
Common benefits include:
- Meaningful pain reduction for conditions such as headaches, neck tension, low back pain, arthritis, or sports-related injuries
- Reduced stress, anxiety, and mental fatigue through nervous system regulation
- Improved sleep quality and restorative rest
- Enhanced digestive function and relief from bloating, constipation, or IBS
- Strengthened immune response and greater resilience during seasonal changes
- Better energy, emotional balance, and overall wellness
Whether you are managing chronic discomfort, recovering from stress, or seeking a restorative approach to wellness, acupuncture offers a gentle but powerful path to improved health.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Your acupuncturist begins by discussing your symptoms, health history, and daily patterns to understand the underlying contributors to your concerns. Treatment takes place in a quiet, relaxing space where ultra-fine needles are placed with precision and care.
Most clients describe acupuncture as calming—the needles create minimal sensation, and many people feel deeply relaxed or even fall asleep during their session. Your practitioner may incorporate cupping, acupressure, or gentle heat therapy when helpful.
After treatment, you may feel lighter, clearer, and more balanced. Recommendations for self-care, hydration, or gentle stretching may be provided to help extend the benefits between visits.
