After I've Had My Treatment

Everybody reacts differently to acupuncture, therefore the first treatment might consist of fewer needles to allow the practitioner to assess the person's sensitivity.

After their treatment some people feel very relaxed whereas others would feel more energetic.

All should enjoy their treatment

The treating of some acupuncture points may occasionally result in slight bruising or aching, normally clearing within a few days. A minority of people may experience a brief increase in the symptoms before the acupuncture treatment relieves them.
