Acupuncture needles are as thin as your hair and are nothing like the hypodermic needles that you see at the hospitals. In some of the more sensitive areas, you may feel a poke. We are here to guide you through the process and insert the needles as gently as possible. 

Loose fitting comfortable clothes are recommended as we will need access to your arms, legs, and any other areas that you may be seeking treatment for.

In most cases you need sets of treatments to resolve the issue. It's like going to the gym. You can't expect change after going to the gym once. Each treatment builds up on each other. The doctor will evaluate and recommend the proper number of treatment sessions at the end of your first appointment.
