Acupuncture treatment involves the insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific sites (Acupuncture points) along the body's Acupuncture pathways (known as meridians) to clear energy blockages and encourage the normal flow of Qi (or lifeforce) through the entire body.
The Acupuncture pathways follow the body's nervous system, and creates communication between the inner and outer systems of the body.
Acupuncture points may also be stimulated using other methods, including cupping, laser therapy, electro-stimulation and massage, in order to re-establish the balance of the body., creating harmony and health.

Generally, a consultation takes between 20-45 minutes.
‘Traditional Acupuncture has an accumulative effect similar to antibiotics; one dose is unlikely to be as effective as a course.
‘You many have suffered your complaint for many years, and still expect to be ‘fixed’ in one session.
The number of sessions required is completely individual, and depends entirely on the reason you are having an Acupuncture treatment, how long you have had the issue, and how your body responds to it.
The longer the illness, or the more severe the problem, the more treatments are required.
Firstly acupuncture needs to achieve improvements in presenting symptoms, and secondly, need to have the results ‘hold’.
‘This is why we cannot predict start-to-finish how many sessions will be required to achieve your end result at our first meeting.
It is common to expect to have 4-6 treatments, each 1 week apart.
It is, however, in some circumstances, quite possible to alleviate some acute issues successfully with only 1 treatment.
