Before Treatment: Please ensure you consume an adequate
amount of food prior to your treatment. It is important not to receive
acupuncture on an empty or overly full stomach. Additionally, we recommend
wearing comfortable and easily accessible clothing. During the treatment,
acupuncture needles will typically be placed in areas around your lower arms
and legs, hands, and feet.
After Treatment: If you are receiving treatments for pain
management, it is advisable to avoid activities that may aggravate the affected
area between your sessions. It's important to note that your body continues to
make adjustments for up to 36 hours after the treatment. There is a 10% chance
that you may experience an aggravation of the condition you are being treated
for. However, there is no cause for concern, as this is a normal healing
response to the effective and unique treatment employed. Typically, any pain or
discomfort subsides within 36 to 48 hours.
Progression and Recovery: Acupuncture treatments aim to
stimulate your body's natural healing capacity. It is common to experience some
degree of pain or a reoccurrence of the condition between your treatments. However,
as you progress through a series of treatments, the degree of pain usually
decreases. Eventually, the pain will diminish to a level where the condition
has fully recovered. It's important to note that the individual recovery time
may vary from patient to patient.
