- Does Acupuncture hurt?
Sometimes a small sensation is felt like a tiny pin prick, but a majority of people are not aware of the shallow pins insertion.
- How does it work?
It works by rebalancing the body with energy/blood flow, releasing any blockages, and allow the glands and organs to function as it should, thereby relief any pain or discomfort.
- How many times do I need treatments?
Depending on the condition of the ailments, often just one or few is enough to feel the difference. More treatments are necessary for chronic conditions.
- Will the treatments affect my medications?
Both types of acupuncture will not affect any medications in any way. In fact, sometimes when the body starts healing, less need of medications may happen.
- How long is the session?
Generally allow a good hour.
- Will it interfere if I have other treatments from different modalities such as physio, or chiropractic?
Generally, it is better for your body to not have too many different kinds of treatments. Always allow about a few days at least apart. More does not necessarily mean faster result, in fact it can slow it down instead.
- Are the treatments claimable from my private health fund?
Yes most private health funds are covered for acupuncture.
- How quick can I get results?
It depends on the seriousness of the condition. Sometimes results are immediate, other times it can take a day or two to settle.
- I am so stressed and my gut doesn’t work well, will this help?
Yes most certainly. Effects are immediate for stressed clients and noticeable difference in their digestion a few days later.
- Does it matter which type of acupuncture I have, Esoteric or Traditional?
No because generally everyone will receive faster results with Esoteric Acupuncture. Sometimes both types are used depending on the ailment because they are both complimentary.
