Our unique treatment approach consists of three parts: Acupuncture is not painful. The needles are hair-thin and they are also very flexible yet sturdy. The pain you will feel is like a mosquito bite sensation. Acupuncture needles are 10% of the diameter of a syringe that you see at a hospital. Yes, acupuncture is a treatment method that is covered under physiotherapy. The answer is usually yes. Acupuncture is excellent for any type of pain conditions that involves muscles, bone and nerves. Acupuncture is amazing in its ability to produce anti-inflammatory, pain-relieving, and regenerative effects. Please refer to the conditions that we commonly treat list at the top of the home page. Acupuncture is cumulative and each treatment builds on the next. Typically, a series of 6-12 sessions is considered a "course of treatment". We recommend 2x/week for the first 2-3 weeks, then 1x/week for 2-3 weeks, then 1x/every two weeks for 1 month. Improvement in symptoms can be seen after a few treatments, but additional treatments will create a more lasting effect.
