1. Acupuncture basics
Learn the fundamentals of acupuncture and how it supports your health.
What is acupuncture?
Acupuncture is a traditional practice using very fine, sterile needles at specific points to support the body’s natural healing response.
Does acupuncture hurt?
Most people feel little to no discomfort. The needles are hair-thin and sterile, and sensations vary from light pressure or warmth to a brief tingling. We check in throughout your visit and adjust the treatment to your comfort level.
How many sessions will I need?
Your plan depends on your goals, health history, and how your body responds over time. After your assessment, we’ll explain a practical recommendation and revisit it as your needs change. There is never a one-size-fits-all schedule.
