Struggling with lower back pain that just won't go away?
Rest helps for a day or two. Painkillers take the edge off. But if it keeps coming back — there's usually something more going on beneath the surface.
At AHAP, our registered acupuncturist Annie Yang specialises in sports acupuncture for exactly this kind of stubborn lower back pain. She targets the tight muscles, active trigger points, and overloaded tissue that are keeping you stuck — and works alongside Dr. Kylie to address both the soft tissue and structural side of your pain at the same time.
We've just published a full breakdown on the blog — what's actually happening in your lower back, how acupuncture helps, and what to expect from your first session.

Acupuncture for Lower Back Pain in Auckland: What It Is, How It Works, and When to Try It Lower back pain is one of the most common — and most frustrating — conditions we treat at AHAP.

Hip aeroplanes ✈️🔥
One of my favourite drills for hip stability, balance, glute control, and improving motor control around the pelvis.
Using the foam roller against the wall gives feedback and support while teaching the hip to control movement properly — not just create force.
If you’ve got stubborn SI joint pain, poor single leg stability, or you keep feeling “tight” on one side… sometimes the issue isn’t stretching. It’s control.
Train the hip. Control the pelvis. Own the movement.
Fire cupping 🔥
One of the oldest recovery therapies still used today for a reason. Cupping can help reduce muscle tension, improve circulation, support recovery, and leave you feeling looser and more relaxed afterwards.
Perfect for:
✔️ Tight muscles
✔️ Gym soreness
✔️ Neck & back tension
✔️ Stress & recovery
✔️ Athletes & active lifestyles
No, it shouldn’t be painful 😅
Most people find it relaxing and walk out feeling lighter and freer in movement.
