How many sessions will I need?

That depends! People respond differently, - but generally it has been observed that if a problem has developed recently it requires fewer treatments. If the problem is long standing it can take longer to shift. TCM treatment also works by treating the underlying cause of the problem so can take longer than methods that treat symptoms only. It is recommended to try six acupuncture sessions to assess benefits obtained and then review. Some people can expect to start seeing improvement from the first session. Sessions are normally once a week or more frequently depending on the condition.
