Every treatment begins with the pulse
Our approach
Backya Acupuncture is a small clinic near Perambur Railway Station, offering classical acupuncture to people of all ages.
Each visit begins with a careful reading of the pulse — the heart of the classical approach Dr. Muthukkumar follows.
Treatment is normally given with just one needle, and occasionally two.
Every needle is sterile, individually packed and used only once.

Patient experiences
“I was not allowed to tell the problem what I have instead it was diagnosed by checking the pulse… it cannot be just shared or explained — it should only be experienced.”
“Simple and efficient medical treatment within reach of our living.”
“Great experience with this (acupuncture) treatment… I very much thank Dr. Muthukumar of Backya Acupuncture clinic, Perambur.”
