Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact us if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How does acupuncture work?

There’s evidence that acupuncture may have effects on the nervous system, effects on other body tissues, and nonspecific (placebo) effects. It's looking at how the body is functioning as a whole, we take a more holistic approach that encourages your body to heal itself naturally with acupuncture and other alternative medicine.

Is it painful?

While the experience will be different for everyone, acupuncture usually doesn’t cause discomfort or pain. This can vary due to your level of pain tolerance and overall sensitivity. Sometimes your first acupuncture treatment will be more painful than your following treatments. This could be because certain energy points on your body are being activated for the first time. Your symptoms may worsen slightly before they get better.

How long does it typically take to see results?

Several factors contribute to how effective your treatment is and how long it takes to work. These factors include your condition, symptoms, treatment, and pain level. If you have been suffering from pain for a long time, your neuropathways are probably conditioned to function in a particular way. Therefore, it could take longer to recondition your neural pathways and create new ‘memories’ for your brain. It depends, some people only need one or two sessions, while others may need more sessions to overcome pain, stress, and other symptoms. So, you shouldn’t be surprised if your first acupuncture session does not make you feel better instantly.

Can treat multiple issues at the same time ?

Yes! No side effect and it can be helpful in maintaining good health and in treating patients with a wide range of health problems. Acupuncture may be used alone or in combination with other complementary or conventional medicine treatments.
