How Acupuncture Works
At our clinic, our team uses a more modern approach to the age-old practice that is Acupuncture. By combining our understanding of traditional practices and the scientific results shown by today’s technology, we are able to provide a treatment that is well-rounded and tailored to our patient’s needs.
Acupuncture can be used in numerous ways to assist with individual health concerns. We can share that when Acupuncture needles gently enter the skin:
- The neurological system is stimulated which affects local tissues, and internal organs via reflex neurological pathways and the brain
- Hormones are regulated both on a local, mind and systemic level
- Local tissues are stimulated to decrease tension in the connective tissue and decrease inflammatory factors
These effects have been shown to encourage the improvement of many different health concerns.
Benefits Of Acupuncture
The reason why we love Acupuncture is we know how effective it is as a form of treatment for a variety of health concerns and the great benefits that come with it. Some of these benefits include:
- Relieving pain
- Improving the quality and quantity of sleep
- Helping with digestion
- Reducing inflammation
- Regulating hormone production
- Release endorphins
- Provides a sense of well-being
- Boosts the immune system

Other Treatments Commonly Used With Acupuncture
With our team, we believe in getting our patients not only the best but the quickest results. This might mean at times using multiple treatment therapies targeted at treating the health concern in different ways.
Some of the therapies we may use are Electro-Acupuncture, TENS, Auriculotherapy, Cupping Therapy, Manual Therapy such as Remedial Massage, Herbal Medicine and even Moxibustion.
How We Get You the Best Results
Most often, patients seek treatment when there is a significant problem. Like with most things, it is always wise to attend to issues before they become bigger problems.
A benefit of seeing a practitioner is getting your health concern assessed and diagnosed. Our team views health as a state of balance as opposed to having a problem or not. This approach allows for both innovative treatment and prevention of health problems.
The process is simple, the first step is to come into our clinic for an Initial Appointment. This is where your practitioner will identify the area of concern and understand what symptoms you are experiencing. We will address these symptoms to help you get relief fast, as well as look at the causative factors to eliminate this from occurring again. Follow-up treatments will be used to accelerate your healing and work on maintenance treatment to help prevent relapse. Your practitioner will provide you with lifestyle advice and coping mechanisms to assist you on your health care journey.

I had Andrew do acupuncture on me 1-2 times a week for a big chunk of this year. I usually left feeling really relaxed. I’ve made other lifestyle changes this year as well but I’m now almost 16 weeks pregnant after 3 years of fertility problems and recurring miscarriages. Acupuncture is an important part of my story now and I would highly recommend.
Words are not enough to express my gratitude towards Andrew. I had panic attacks back in May and I was unable to sleep for about 2 months after a family member passed away. I spoke to Andrew over the phone, he asked me to come see him the following morning. Andrew is very knowledgeable, empathetic, very calm and grounded by nature. I was elated when he told me that he is happy to work with me and be part of my healing journey. After 2 sessions I can already feel a significant change in my nervous system. I am sure with the help of Andrew I will be off the medications soon. Thank you Thank you Thank you so much for helping me. The entire team is a very accommodating, I would highly recommend them for being Skillful, proficient and expert at what they do.
I seen doctor Andrew with uncontrollable nerve pain and very stiff movement from the lower back. After 2 sessions I found the pain reduced by 50% and 2 weeks later my movement and pain is alot better.
Dr Andrew was super professional, left me feeling great after my treatment. Would recommend for any expecting mummas!!
Dr Andrew treated me. From my phone consultation right through to my last visit I was cared for in the most professional way. This was my first experience with accupuncture for a long term injury that I had previously treated with cortisone injections. The results I received far outweighed any treatment I had before and I learnt so much along the way. The practice is spotless and the whole team are professional and caring. I can't recommend Evolution enough.
Amazing care and treatment from the team and Dr David is amazing at what he does,really explaining and providing the best care.
Great experience all round. The practice is immaculate, and the atmosphere welcoming. Michelle's radiant personality shines though every visit and she is always ready to help with any enquiries. I could feel an improvement in my knees after the first appointment, and surgery is no longer required. Andrew took the time to understand my conditions and concerns. Thank you Andrew, Michelle, and Kent.
Amazing staff, so knowledgeable and helpful. I always have an amazing experience at Evolution
Fantastic place to come if you have any issues with lower back pain or discomfort Highly recommended this places
Andrew and the team make each experience a warm and welcoming one. The care delivered and professionalism is something I will always remember. Thoroughly recommended.
5 star practitioner, care, and facilities- looking forward to continuing with the Evolution team!
I sought treatment (acupuncture) with Evolution Medical Care recently, after reading through their stellar reviews online. I started seeing Andrew for overall health management with a focus on stress relief, headaches, mild TMJ, a sudden bout of panic attacks, and a fertility boost. It’s been about 5 weeks since I began treatment and Ive noticed I’m sleeping a lot better; the tension that was causing through my body has subsided considerably, as have the other side effects of stress. I have more energy (thanks to sleep), and a calmer demeanour. The clinic is incredibly clean (love that!),and the needles are always new, so no need for concern there. The team are friendly and the operating hours are wide-ranging, so I can go early before work or after 5pm. I recommended Evolution to my husband, who is now going too, and I would recommend it to anyone else seeking treatment. Check out their website as they have a variety of treatments and remedial therapies.
Absolutely amazing experience at Evolution Medical Care, Dr David is very knowledgeable and helpful treating patients. Highly recommend Evolution Medical care.
I have been bringing my elderly mum there for acupuncture All the staff have been really helpful in giving her different treatments for her chronic pain Great work
Feeling so much better with a positive attitude and outcome, wishing to continue my sessions
I’ve been seeing Evolution Medical Care for a variety of issues—headaches, anxiety, and even carpal tunnel during my pregnancy—and they have helped me through so many stages of life. Their combination of acupuncture and supplements has been a game-changer for my well-being. I honestly can’t recommend them enough! Every therapist I’ve seen (usually Dr. David and Dr. Andrew) has been incredible. They are not only highly skilled but also genuinely care about you as a person. The customer experience they provide is next-level—every visit feels personal, supportive, and effective. If you’re looking for professional care with a personal touch, then I would definitely check out Evolution MC, I’m a raving fan!
Very happy with the experience recieved, have had a mix of accupunture, cupping and massaging by both Dr Kent and Dr Andrew Happy with both experiences by them, very comfortable and relaxing, pinpointing any issuse and working out the best method for for desired outcome highly recommended ✨️
Dr Andrew and the whole team are extremely professional and will work with you to achieve your goals, whatever they may be.
I wasn’t sure what to expect. But i had amazing results. I’d highly recommend them
Great people…who genuinely care about achieving a positive outcome
I would like to thank David from Evolution Medical Care for helping me through my neck, dizziness, back and migraine pain, by comprehensively finding the cause of the pain and using a variety of methods to best fix the problems at the source ie acupuncture, cupping and exercises. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you so much 😊
I have really enjoyed my sessions with Andrew and find I am getting some good benefits from the acupuncture. I would definitely recommend Andrew and Evolution medical as a place to go to if you have any injury or aliments.
Andrew and the team and Evolution have been absolutely life changing. After many years of constant disappointment with specialists and Gp's, Andrew was able to turn my health around after 1 visit. I can't thank Andrew enough for the care and treatment that I have received so far. I am so glad I came here...thankyou Evolution.
I had my first appointment with Dr David at Evolutions and had a great experience. I am an anxious person and He made me feel at ease, he explained the process for me every step of the way. Thank you for a positive first experience and every experience since with Evolutions has been nothing but positive and supportive. Thanks so much
With numerous physical injuries leading to mental health challenges i was recommended by a family member to visit Evolution. As of my 2nd visit, I am extremely comfortable, confident and relaxed with my Dr, treatment and progress. I have had more positive results on 1 week than in months of my ongoing recovery. I am amazed & grateful at the early results which are allowing me to sleep better and looking forward to the ongoing progress that is ahead. I recommend anyone managing an injury of any description to give the team at evolution a go at assisting you with your health matters.
Evolution medical is a very warming and welcome medical centre with kind and knowledgeable staff! They helped me so much with multiple of my health issues. I highly recommend they to anyone, especially individuals who want to try a new medical place as you always get stuck being told nothing is wrong with you by doctors but you still feel horrible!
I hav had chronic pain in my back for most of my adult life, I have facet joint and sacroiliac issuesI’m 58. Twelve months ago I started getting pain in both feet. When this pain reached a point of desperation my daughter recommended Acupuncture. I went to see Dr David , After a quick consultation he realised the pain in my feet was coming from my back, and my wonderful world of being pain free began. By my third visit I was being looked after by Dr Andrew and when he asked me how I was doing it suddenly hit me I was 90 percent pain free and I was in quite disbelief. Now I’m just overjoyed and greatfull I finally did something to help myself, instead of putting up with it. I can honestly say I never thought I would get the results I got for my feet pain or my back pain. I’m impressed, and recommend these practitioners if you suffer from pain.
I’m very happy with Evolution Medical Care. They never pressure you into extra appointments, and the PainX supplement is amazing—highly recommend it! Dr. Andrew has been extremely professional and helpful throughout my treatment.
I wish I could put into words how grateful I am for Dr Andrew and the team at Evolution Medical Care. I came to see Dr Andrew with chronic pain concerns as other treatments and medications had not helped me in the past. I was stuck in an endless cycle of pain and anxiety, and it was significantly impacting my everyday life. I’ve been seeing Dr Andrew for acupuncture for 3.5 months now, and I have experienced a remarkable reduction in my pain! This has allowed me to enjoy the things I love again, be more active, and have confidence that I can achieve my goals once more. Dr Andrew is so knowledgeable, compassionate, and truely goes above and beyond for his patients. Not only has Dr Andrew provided me with a better quality of life now, he has given me hope for the future. Thank you so much!! Jessie 🌸
Andrew listened to my concerns and walked me through all the issues and how to resolve them with a caring and helpful attitude. I will be back next week!!
I started seeing Andrew for back and hand pain, but he also treated me for other issues, including headaches and shoulder pain. He is very knowledgeable and always takes the time to understand the root of the problem. The rooms at Evolution are spotless, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I highly recommend his services.
Saw Andrew for my pregnancy at 32w with a posterior baby to help turn the baby into a better position, his professionalism and treatment was amazing. I could feel baby responding during the acupuncture session! Highly recommend for pregnancy support
Evolution Medical Centre is fantastic. I can’t recommend Dr Andrew & his team enough. Professional, caring & very attentive. I’ve felt substantial health benefits as a result of my acupuncture treatments. Highly recommend.
Andrew the owner is a very calming and gentle presence. They have worked wonders for my planter fasciitis and fertility treatment, and both were successful! I am now back for treatment for fertility again. I would recommend Evolution Medical Care to anyone who has any issues. 10/10 for care.
What a great experience, from my initial booking, i have had great customer service, easy to book and great hours. I love getting the reminder the day before. I am really feeling a difference.
Highly recommend evolution mc staff are friendly and professional.
Evolution medical care is truly outstanding and has exceeded all my expectations. Dr David Vo’s knowledge and skills are exceptional making it an experience I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for quality acupuncture care. All the staff are very professional, friendly and welcoming and the premises has such a calm enviroment. I can’t recommend Evolution Medical Care highly enough. Thank you for helping and healing me 🤍
Always felt very comfortable, relaxed and safe. Staff very professional and friendly. Beautiful clean rooms and waiting room. Highly recommend !
Amazing staff, came here for IVF acupuncture and absolutely loved it. Highly recommend!!!
Was recommended Dr Romano by a friend, and first attended this practice years ago. Dr Romano was very professional and assisted with the sports injuries that I received, from initial consultation to recovery. I moved away for work for 4 years and only recently returned. I had a flare-up of an old injury and decided to return to see Dr Romano. I'm in treatment and responding well. I have a fear of needles. However, due to the recovery acupuncture is giving me, I'm happy to put aside my fear for the benefits. I would have no hesitation recommending Dr Romano to anyone for treatment. Very professional and knowledgeable about anatomy and injury management. Highly recommended 👌
The team at Evolution medical centre are incredible. I started seeing Dr Andrew for acupuncture treatment and from the very first session he was so approachable and professional. He took the time to really listen and then thoroughly explain what he would recommend to achieve my goals. They have all been so accomodating and flexible when I have had to reschedule appointments numerous times. I highly recommend this practice!
After one week of acupuncture treatment for an injury I sustained 18 months ago I am already seeing noticeable improvement and mobility. Thank you Evolution Medical Care.
Fantastic medical care. Just the first acupuncture session done by Dr.Andrew Romano has eased my pain so much and a great releif after suffering for almost 8 months. Hopefully few more sessions and my pain totally would be gone. Thank you everyone at Evolution Medical care.
Highly recommend Evolution Medical Care. Friendly Staff, calming atmosphere, and feeling the benefits of what Dr Kent is doing to alleviate some of my Chronic Neck and Nerve pain.
