HOW OFTEN WILL I NEED TREATMENT?

In acupuncture philosophy, each person is considered unique and therefore the number of treatments required depends on the individual. Normally you are recommended to visit the clinic once or twice a week at first, although some conditions may need more or less frequent attention. Sometimes the effects of the treatment are dramatic and only one or two treatments are required. With other patients the effects are more subtle and they may need treatment over several months. Individuals may also seek treatment as a preventative measure in which case, after the initial few sessions, treatment will often be seasonal (similar to check ups at the dentist).
