The Treatment

The initial consultation will involve taking a detailed history to help diagnose any underlying conditions.

This is achieved by careful questioning and may also include a physical examination, looking at the tongue and taking the pulse. The appropriate treatment will be chosen by the acupuncturist who will insert very fine sterile needles into the channels at selected points. This regulates the energy and allows the body to rebalance naturally.

Acupuncture is a very safe and effective form of treatment which considers the whole person invidually, rather than just their illness or symptoms.

It is effective on its own or will complement Western Medicine as a treatment for a wide variety of conditions.

For this first session, please allow up to 2 hours for adults and 1 hour for children.

For subsequent treatments, please allow 45 minutes to 1 hour for adults and 30 minutes for children.
