How many treatments do I need?

For short-term issues, a handful of acupuncture treatments should do the job. For chronic or long-standing issues, a maintenance schedule would be necessary.  As symptoms go down the need for treatment frequency goes down.  Your acupuncturist will discuss a treatment plan with you.

Keys to getting the most out of acupuncture

*Acupuncture treatments have cumulative benefits, the treatments get stronger the longer you receive them.

*The longer you have had an issue, the longer it could take to see changes.

*In the beginning, more is better if you want to get the ball rolling faster.

*It is ok to receive treatments several days in a row, in the beginning it is encouraged.

*Try to get your next treatment before the effects of the previous one wear off.  Taking 2 steps forward will take you further than taking 2 steps forward and 1 step back.  As the effects build you will be able to go longer in between treatments.
