Frequently Asked Questions
Does acupuncture hurt?
Most patients find acupuncture surprisingly comfortable. The needles are extremely fine—much thinner than needles used for injections. You may feel a brief sensation when needles are inserted, but most people find the treatment deeply relaxing.
What should I expect after treatment?
Many patients feel relaxed and sometimes a bit tired immediately after acupuncture. Some notice improvement right away, while others experience gradual changes over several sessions. Occasionally, symptoms may temporarily intensify as part of the healing process.
Can acupuncture replace my other medical care?
Acupuncture works well alongside conventional medicine and can be part of an integrative approach to health. I encourage open communication with all your healthcare providers. For some conditions, acupuncture may reduce the need for medications, but never discontinue prescribed treatments without consulting your physician.
How many treatments will I need?
This varies based on your condition and how long you've had it. Acute issues may resolve in 3-6 sessions, while chronic conditions often benefit from longer courses of care. We'll discuss a treatment plan during your first visit.
Is acupuncture safe?
Yes, when performed by a licensed practitioner. I use single-use, sterile needles and follow strict safety protocols. Side effects are rare and typically mild, such as minor bruising at needle sites.
What conditions do you treat?
I treat a wide range of conditions including pain, stress, digestive issues, women's health concerns, and more. If you're unsure whether acupuncture is right for your situation, feel free to call for a brief consultation.
Do you take insurance?
I do not take insurance at this time.
