How Safe is Acupuncture?
There are very few adverse reactions to acupuncture but in some cases your condition may temporarily exacerbated following the treatment. This is a sign of detoxification and is considered to be a good thing. Soaking your feet in Epsom salts and hot water and getting in plenty of fluids and nutrition will ease the healing process.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
This will vary depending on your severity of pain, your diagnosis, and your response to the treatment. For a musculoskeletal problem: It is usually better to come in twice in the first week and once a week for the next couple of weeks. This ensures that we keep the ball rolling forward in your healing and don’t re-start every time from the beginning. Even when you are relatively healthy, it is a good practice to see your acupuncturist once every season, so that they may balance you & realign your internal system to operate at optimal. By seeing your acupuncturist four times a year you will be preventing imbalances, which cause disease and sickness.
