New to acupuncture?

30/8/2022

We treat a wide range of conditions and clients at our clinic - so far the youngest client we’ve had was 4 years old and our oldest was 91! For many, acupuncture is their go-to treatment but we also see many new clients each week that have never had acupuncture before but are keen for a different approach for their health.

So what happens at your first acupuncture appointment? During your first appointment we like to get a thorough understanding of your condition, the severity, how long you’ve had it, and how it impacts your quality of life.

Where applicable, we will also perform a physical assessment and discuss your health goals. We develop an initital treatment plan which will allow us to better understand your individual response to acupuncture, as some people respond quickly, while others take a bit longer. This will help us determine how many treatments you may require.

​Where do the needles go? Well, it depends! Both Jessica and Wendy have studied a number of acupuncture styles (there are many!), so we customise the treatment for the client based on our assessment and your requirements. For some, climbing on top of a treatment table is one of the last things they want to do, so we’re happy to treat clients whilst they are seated in a chair with just their shirt sleeves and pant legs rolled up. We in fact have many clients that have restricted mobility come for treatment. Sometimes acupuncture needles are placed at the site of concern, for example on the back for back pain, where other times we use the body’s internal wiring and put needles in the arm, for example, to treat the back. The needles are about the thickness of two human hairs and are one-time use. Many of our clients fall asleep during treatment and all leave very relaxed.
