What to expect

On your first visit you will be asked about your health history and current complaints.

Traditional Chinese medical examination typically includes:

• palpation of the abdomen
  
• palpation of various acupuncture points
  
• observation of the tongue and
  
• pulse taking (on both wrists)

How does it feel

For the treatment, fine, hair-thin needles are inserted into specific body points to stimulate the energy-flow in channels.
You might experience a slight pinch as the needle goes through the skin; as it reaches the channel, a tingle, warmth, heaviness or tugging sensation may be felt.

The body’s Qi may also be stimulated without needles – by cupping or moxa (a smouldering herb used to warm body points).

How many treatments will I require?

This will depend on your condition. A long-term deep-seated problem could take three to six months of regular weekly sessions to clear, whereas minor complaints could require just one or two treatments. Your age, constitution and general state of health will also be a factor.
Dietary, exercise or life-style recommendations given during the treatment should be followed to help achieve best results.
