FAQs

Acupuncture FAQs

What happens during a treatment?

A medical history will be taken before your therapist designs your treatment plan. Sterile needles will then be inserted at points to treat the whole body as well as any specific symptoms. You will rest with the needles in for a short while before your therapist removes them.
Most people don’t feel the needles being inserted as they are very fine. You may feel some tingling or a dull ache around the site of the needle. Reactions to treatment are rare and short-lived and may include some tiredness / dizziness or mild bruising. Most people report feeling calm and relaxed.
The risk of an adverse reaction is very low. Please discuss any concerns with your practitioner.
Treatment plans vary from person to person but it is usual to begin a treatment plan with weekly treatments. As the body responds to treatment, frequency of visits may be reduced.
Some policies do cover acupuncture treatment. Please check with your policy provider.
