Acupuncture is a Traditional East Asian medical practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to promote healing and balance of the body.
Most people don’t feel the needle or report minimal discomfort when the needles are inserted. You might feel a tingling or dull ache, but the process is generally not painful.
Acupuncture is commonly used for pain management (e.g., back pain, headaches), stress, anxiety, digestive disorders, insomnia, and more. Evidence also supports its use for certain chronic conditions like osteoarthritis and migraine.
When performed by a trained and licensed practitioner, acupuncture is very safe. Sterile, single-use needles are used to minimize risks of infection or injury.
A typical acupuncture session takes 45 minutes. It will take 60 minutes if it is your first session including consultation.
The number of sessions varies depending on the condition being treated and individual response. Acute conditions may require fewer sessions, while chronic conditions may need regular treatments over weeks or months.
