Acupuncture
What Is Acupuncture ?
Book an appointment
Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin, sterile, single-use needles into the skin and soft tissues, acupuncture should not be painful, but patients are often aware of a mild ache, or heavy sensation around the area treated. The needles are sometimes gently stimulated to enhance the effect of the needles.
The benefits of acupuncture include,
-reduction of pain,
- alleviation of muscle spasm and tension.
- facilitation of the healing process
- introduction of local and general relaxation.
-promotion of general well being
- improved sleep patterns.
It is a good idea to have eaten a couple of hours before your acupuncture treatment so that your blood sugar levels are not low. Occasionally people feel drowsy, dizzy or faint after an acupuncture treatment, and you may wish to be accompanied for your first appointment so that you won’t need to drive. You are welcome to sit in the clinic, and will be given a drink if you do happen to feel dizzy and need a few minutes to recover. Many people sleep very well on the night after their first appointment.
