About this therapy

Acupuncture

Fine-needle sessions for pain, sleep, and stress.

Fine-needle care

Acupuncture uses very fine, single-use needles placed at selected points on the body. It is most often booked for pain, sleep, stress and cycle support. Sessions are calm and unhurried. Most people feel a brief tap as each needle goes in, followed by a heavy, relaxed sensation while they rest.

How many sessions

Many people notice changes within the first few visits. A typical course runs six to eight weekly sessions, reviewed as you go, then spaced out as things settle. Acupuncture works well alongside nutrition and massage. Your acupuncturist reviews progress with the rest of your care team, so treatment fits the wider plan.

Your first session

What to expect

A calm, unhurried first visit. You can ask questions or pause at any point.

What to bring

Loose, comfortable clothing and a list of any medication or supplements you take.

Before

We start with a short conversation about your health history, current concerns and any medication you take.

During

Very fine needles rest at selected points for 20 to 30 minutes. Most people feel a brief tap, then deep relaxation.

After

Drink water, keep the rest of the day gentle, and note any changes to share at your next visit.
