Acupuncture
Does it hurt?
Acupuncture needles are so fine that most people don’t feel them being inserted. It is normal to feel a mild tingle or dull ache as the acupuncturist adjusts the needle to direct qi. Many people feel deeply relaxed during the treatment.
What are the side effects or down time?
Rare however, occasionally a small bruise can appear at a needle site. Sometimes people may feel slightly tired after after the first treatment even dizzy. This feeling passed very quickly and may just be presence at the first treatment. After the initial appointment I advise to have a quiet day. Many after the first appointment feel deeply relaxed and feel they need to rest. After future appointments you may feel slightly energised. We always advice to keep hydrated.
When do I start feeling the benefits?
Many people feel deeply relaxed during the first treatment. Benefit can be seen early as 1-2 treatments.
How much does it cost?
From £60 for 45min appointment.
