Treatment and prices
Initially it is suggested that you phone for a free 15 minute chat to answer any questions you may have regarding treatment and also to ensure that acupuncture is suitable for your condition.
The first session is generally longer to allow time to discuss your condition and take a full history. It is helpful to bring a list of any medication that you are taking.
A treatment plan can then be made which will be specific for each patient. There will also be time for an initial treatment with acupuncture.

Length of treatment
The frequency and number of treatments differ from person to person. This depends on the condition. Sometimes a few treatments is all that are required but in long standing illnesses a more prolonged course will be needed. Often life style changes such as diet, relaxation and exercise can complement treatment and speed up the recovery process.
Normally a course of 5 treatments is suggested to start with as the effects of acupuncture are cumulative but each treatment programs is tailored to the individual
How to prepare for treatment
It is suggested that you eat something light, not a full meal. Wear loose comfortable clothes. You should also avoid alcohol before your appointment.
