Acupuncture Treatment

Description

An acupuncture treatment typically includes the following steps: 1. Consultation & Assessment • The practitioner asks about your medical history, symptoms, lifestyle, and any specific concerns. • They may check your pulse, examine your tongue, and assess your overall energy (Qi) flow. 2. Treatment Plan Discussion • Based on the assessment, the practitioner explains the treatment approach and expected benefits. • They discuss how many sessions may be needed and address any concerns you have. 3. Needle Placement • You lie on a treatment table, usually fully clothed, with access to the areas where needles will be inserted. • Fine, sterile needles are gently inserted into specific acupuncture points on your body. • You may feel a slight tingling, warmth, or pressure, but it’s usually not painful. 4. Relaxation Period • The needles stay in place for 20-25minutes while you rest. • Many people find this part very relaxing. 5. Needle Removal & Aftercare • The practitioner carefully removes the needles. • You may feel energized, deeply relaxed, or notice subtle changes in symptoms. • Aftercare includes lifestyle or dietary recommendations to complement the treatment. 6. Follow-Up Plan • Based on your response, the practitioner may suggest future treatments. • Some conditions improve after one session, while others require multiple visits for best results.
