Generally, Acupuncture is not a painful experience. I tend to adapt a more Japanese style - I practice using Japanese needles, which tend to be smaller and finer - Meaning they have more of a delicate & smooth sensation. I do this because I prefer a more softer approach and I have also noticed patients really enjoy this, especially if they are new to acupuncture therapies. You may feel sensations of tingling, pressure sensation or a slight dull ache - Which from a Chinese Medicine perspective is termed "De Qi" meaning the arrival of energy to an acupuncture point. This is a great response! The number of Acupuncture sessions required is highly dependent on your needs, preferences & lifestyle!

Chinese Medicine recognizes the interconnectedness of the body and mind! It is often used to for both physical and emotional conditions! The duration of treatment varies depending on the nature and severity of the condition. Acute conditions may show improvement more quickly, while chronic conditions may want some more time and care.

Relaxation Massage Therapy, also known as Swedish massage, provides a soothing & therapeutic approach, focused on nurturing the body and releasing stress. The goal is to induce a deep state of relaxation - allowing for rest, restoration & recovery. Gentle strokes, kneading & rhythmic motions are applied to the entire body, encouraging the physical body, and mind to let go.

Many people seek acupuncture for conditions such as stress, anxiety, digestive disorders, emotional regulation, muscular skeletal conditions, pain management, nervous system regulation, headaches, migraines, menstrual health, fertility support, general wellbeing, energy, sleep health and insomnia and more.
