Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions can acupuncture help with?
Acupuncture is commonly used for chronic pain, migraines, anxiety, digestive issues, insomnia, and fertility support. The World Health Organization recognizes acupuncture as effective for dozens of conditions.
Does acupuncture hurt?
Most patients report minimal discomfort. Acupuncture needles are extremely thin — much finer than injection needles. You may feel a brief tingling sensation when needles are inserted, but many patients find the sessions deeply relaxing.
What qualifications should an acupuncturist have?
Look for practitioners licensed in your state with a Master's or Doctoral degree in Acupuncture or Oriental Medicine. Board certification through the NCCAOM (National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine) is the gold standard.
How many acupuncture sessions will I need?
Treatment plans vary by condition. Acute issues may resolve in 3-6 sessions, while chronic conditions often require ongoing care. Your acupuncturist will create a personalized treatment plan after your initial assessment.
