Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can be subtle but powerful forms of treatment. Sessions are customized to the patient’s unique needs and each patient responds at a different pace.
We request that you commit to 4 sessions of acupuncture &/or Chinese herbs after which time we decide on the next course of action.
Many conditions take on average 8-12 sessions for a shift in symptoms to occur. Some patients may require more or less to see results.
