How does acupuncture work?
This is another common question and has a number of different answers depending on what specific we are answering. In broad terms the insertion of needles elicits a neurochemical response from the body causing a number of processes to occur within the body. This neurochemical response can help mediate pain, reduce inflammation, increase and decrease blood flow, mediate allergic response etc.

What will i need for my appointment?
For your appointment you will need yourself of course, copies of any relevant scan results or tests pertinent to your reason for coming, the names of any meds and supplements you are taking. It is often a good idea to wear loose clothing or even better bring along a t shirt and shorts to change into. it is suggested to attend your first appointment 10 mins early just remember that there may be a client in the treatment room so no dance parties in the waiting room. Headphones are always appreciated.
