Acupuncture is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that involves the insertion of thin needles into the skin at specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow and promote healing. 

Most patients feel little to no pain — the needles are much thinner than a standard injection needle. Some may feel a tiny pinch or warmth at the point, but many report feeling relaxed enough to nap during treatment. 

Yes, acupuncture is generally considered safe when performed by a trained and licensed practitioner. While acupuncture is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience minor side effects, such as bruising, soreness, or slight bleeding at the needle sites. These effects are typically temporary and resolve quickly. If you have any specific health concerns or conditions, it’s important to discuss them with your acupuncturist to ensure that acupuncture is appropriate for you.  

Yes, the needles used in acupuncture are both sterile and safe. Acupuncturists use single-use, disposable needles that are pre-sterilized and packaged in a sealed environment to ensure they are free from contaminants. This practice is in line with strict health and safety regulations to prevent any risk of infection or cross-contamination.

At our clinic, we prepare herbal medicine in the traditional decoction method — the way it’s been done for thousands of years in Chinese medicine. We select a custom blend of raw herbs based on your condition, then boil them in water to extract their active healing compounds.

Once brewed, the liquid (herbal tea) is strained and packaged in easy-to-drink daily servings. This method ensures you get the full strength and benefits of the herbs — far more potent than capsules or powders.

The number of acupuncture treatments varies depending on your condition and individual response. Some people notice improvement after just a few sessions, while others may require more. Your acupuncturist will develop a treatment plan tailored to your needs and adjust it as necessary based on your progress.
