Understanding Acupuncture Therapy
Acupuncture is a holistic healthcare modality that involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body known as acupoints. These acupoints are located along meridians or energy pathways that correspond to different organ systems and functions within the body. By stimulating these acupoints, acupuncture aims to restore balance and harmony to the body's energy flow, known as Qi (pronounced "chee").
The Acupuncture Process
- Initial Consultation: During your first visit, our experienced acupuncturist will conduct a comprehensive health assessment, including a review of your medical history, lifestyle factors, and specific health concerns. This information helps us develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs.
- Needle Insertion: Once your treatment plan is established, our acupuncturist will gently insert thin, sterile needles into the selected acupoints on your body. The needles are typically left in place for about 20-30 minutes while you relax comfortably on a treatment table.
- Stimulation and Adjustment: Depending on your unique condition and treatment goals, our acupuncturist may gently manipulate the needles to enhance their therapeutic effects or adjust their placement to target specific areas of concern.
- Aftercare and Follow-up: After your acupuncture session, our acupuncturist will provide you with personalized aftercare instructions and recommendations to support your healing process. Depending on your condition, a series of acupuncture sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
