how many needles do you use?

I use a one needle system. One needle is a potent style that realigns each person to their own unique wellness setting. Despite being only one needle, this style of acupuncture is strong. Sometimes there will be a bruise at needle site, and sometimes some people can feel the site activated for a couple of days afterward.

How does acupuncture work?

Acupuncture works with your own unique energies, by opening and clearing energetic channels in the body. These channels affect every system and organ in our body, as well as our spiritual and emotional bodies. One needle is placed in a very specific location depending on your body's needs, opening whichever channels were blocked and causing you issues.

How many sessions do I need?

For the greatest outcome, two to three sessions in a week get the best results. In saying that, it really depends on what we are working with. Chronic and complex cases will take more, and acute will take less, either way, the impact is remarkable when we cluster sessions close together. This way the body is coached into a new state of healing it can remember and keep going with. The further apart the sessions, the harder it is for the body to remember and keep the channels open, especially if the conditions have been troublesome for a long time.
