Frequently Asked Questions

Acupuncture encourages the body to shift out of stress mode and into a state where healing is possible.
It supports circulation, the nervous system, hormonal balance and digestive function. Most clients feel
calmer, clearer and more balanced after treatment.

Your first visit includes a relaxed consultation where we discuss your health goals, symptoms and overall
wellbeing. You’ll then receive a gentle, personalised acupuncture treatment designed to support your body’s
natural healing response.

Most clients feel very little — often just a light tap or a warm, relaxing sensation. The needles are extremely
fine, and treatments are always tailored to your comfort level.

This depends on your goals, how long the issue has been present, and how your body responds. Some people feel
improvement after 1–3 sessions, while others benefit from a short course of weekly treatments. We’ll discuss a
plan that suits your needs during your first visit.
