How Will I Feel?

We all respond differently to treatment. Immediately afterwards, you will often feel relaxed and revitalised, mentally and physically.  Some people can feel tired after a treatment, particularly if they live busy lives fuelled by adrenaline.

Treatment is usually required weekly for the first 4 - 6 sessions and then the frequency is reduced as improvement is made.  

The goal of acupuncture is to help the body to help itself so treatment will be diminished as soon as possible.

Some patients recover completely and stop treatment, whilst others need to keep coming, less often, for the improvements to hold.  Many patients choose to continue occasional treatment for health maintenance.

One of my favourite sayings is:

Serenity is not freedom from the storm, but peace amid the storm

To me, this captures the feeling that Traditional Acupuncture can give.  As a practitioner, I cannot change your immediate situation - often the “storm” - but the treatment can bring a sense of peace, grounding and strength within it so we can find the balance we require for true health.
