Services
Acupuncture
Traditional acupuncture uses fine needles to stimulate energy flow and treat chronic pain, migraines, and stress-related conditions. Our practitioners combine ancient techniques with modern research to enhance natural healing. Patients benefit from improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and better sleep quality through targeted treatments.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy improves blood circulation and relieves muscle tension using controlled suction. This detoxifying treatment addresses respiratory issues, sports injuries, and chronic pain. Sessions promote skin health and accelerate recovery by increasing oxygen flow to affected tissues.
Dry Needling
Dry needling targets muscle knots to alleviate pain from sports injuries and repetitive strain. By releasing trigger points, this therapy enhances mobility and athletic performance. Patients experience faster recovery times and reduced inflammation without pharmaceutical intervention.
Remedial Massage
Remedial massage addresses muscular dysfunction through deep tissue manipulation. It accelerates healing after injuries, reduces swelling, and prevents future strains. Customised techniques improve joint mobility and restore muscle balance for long-term pain relief.
Chinese Massage
Tui Na massage regulates energy flow through acupressure and meridian stimulation. This traditional technique treats musculoskeletal disorders and internal imbalances. Regular sessions improve circulation, reduce stress, and enhance overall vitality through targeted soft-tissue manipulation.

I know a gem when I find one! I went to him because I have been struggling with low grade infections, general fatigue, lower back pain, cognitive issues as well as sinus infections. As soon as I arrived I knew I was in good hands, as he provided a full assessment and knew exactly how to treat me. I have had about 6 sessions and I am feeling so much better. He is very knowledgeable and his techniques work, its amazing! He cares so much about his patients and this is felt and rare these days. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to move towards health or who is struggling with pain or illness

Dr Ali was truly amazing!! I have seen him a few days ago for my back pain, his cupping and acupuncture treatments really worked for my back pain which I suffered for a long time. I can highly recommend him for acupuncture and cupping treatments. I believe he is the best acupuncturist.

Dr Ali Dast is a genuinely caring, patient and sincerely wants to help everyone of his patients. I have had fibromyalgia daily wide spread pain and chronic migraine since 2010 - I have been going to see him since May 2021 and he has helped me so much with my pain management. I can feel alive again after all these years. I will continue to see him to continue with my ongoing pain management. I am blessed to have found a very genuine Dr Ali Dast. He is the best! I cannot thank you enough as to how much he has helped me.

I had an itchy face and visited my GP. The doctor prescribed expensive ointment which was helpful for a couple of days but the problem returned. That was very annoying. I am so thankful to have found ADA Acupuncture Clinic. Dr Ali Dast is an excellent and caring acupuncturist. He treated me 3 months ago in just one session and the problem is gone forever!! Thank you so much doctor.
