Usually it takes about 60 mins for new patients, and 50 mins for returning patients. There are shorter treatment options if only desiring to receive cupping therapy or B12 therapy.

In general, patients should start to feel the benefits from Acupuncture in 2-3 treatments. Total number of visits are determined based on the condition (duration, severity, etc) as well as the patient’s overall health.

Frequency and duration of treatment greatly depends on the condition to be treated. For something like a recent bout of sciatica, usually two to four treatments are enough. Chronic conditions however, often require more visits.

Acupuncture needles are rarely described as painful, and can be quickly adjusted if the patient experiences discomfort. We want your experience to be a positive one both in terms of results as well as the overall feel of the treatment.
