The number of treatments each patient needs varies depending on their specific condition, symptom severity, and overall health. During your first visit, we will collaborate with you to create a personalized care plan.

Most patients benefit from a series of treatments to fully experience the effects of acupuncture. Similar to a gym routine, results develop gradually and consistency is important.

Initially, treatments are usually scheduled more frequently and then gradually decrease as progress is made.

From a biomedical perspective, acupuncture enhances circulation, reduces inflammation, releases endorphins (natural pain relievers), lowers cortisol (the stress hormone), and supports immune function.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views illness as arising from disruptions in the flow of qi, or vital energy, within the body.

By stimulating specific points, acupuncture helps restore the proper flow of qi through the body's pathways, addressing both the underlying causes and symptoms of disease simultaneously.
