Discover the Power of Acupuncture in Abergavenny
If you’re struggling with aches, pains, or stress, you’re not alone. Many people across Abergavenny, Monmouthshire, South Wales and the South West of England turn to Japanese acupuncture as a natural, effective way to feel better, move more freely, and enjoy life without discomfort.
At Amatsu Centre Abergavenny, we specialise in Japanese Acupuncture Therapy, a gentle and painless treatment that helps relieve pain, improve circulation, and restore balance in the body.
Led by Stephan Grabner, our team includes highly experienced therapists like Michael Cordel, who has over 30 years of experience in acupuncture and holistic healing and Charlotte Taylor.
But how does acupuncture actually work? And why do so many people swear by it?
What is Japanese Acupuncture?
Acupuncture has been used for over 3,000 years to treat pain, tension, and various health conditions. It works by inserting tiny, ultra-thin needles into key areas of the body to stimulate healing, release blockages, and restore the natural flow of energy (known as “Qi”).
Japanese acupuncture is a gentle approach that uses the finest needles, making it a pain-free alternative to traditional acupuncture. Unlike some Western treatments that focus only on symptoms, acupuncture addresses the root cause of discomfort, helping the body heal from within.
At Amatsu Centre, our therapists combine acupuncture with hands-on therapy, ensuring the best possible results for long-term pain relief and overall well-being.
How Does Acupuncture Work?
- Stimulates the Nervous System – Acupuncture interacts with the body’s fascia (connective tissue), which conducts natural electrical impulses that help regulate pain, tension, and energy flow.
- Activates the Body’s Self-Healing Mechanism – Acupuncture encourages the body to release natural painkillers (endorphins) and improve circulation to speed up healing.
- Releases Blockages in Energy Flow (Qi) – According to traditional Japanese and Chinese medicine, blocked energy (Qi) can lead to pain and illness. Acupuncture helps restore balance, improving overall well-being.

Case Study: How Acupuncture Helped One Client Overcome Knee Pain
One of our clients recently came to see Michael Cordel after struggling with knee pain for months. They had tried everything—painkillers, physio, even steroid injections—but nothing worked.
After just one acupuncture session, they noticed a dramatic reduction in pain. Here’s what they had to say:
⭐ “Michael made us feel at ease, explained how acupuncture helps stimulate the nervous system in easing pain. My husband’s experience was amazing 👏 and after just one session, his knee pain was significantly reduced! Thank you again, Michael!”
