How many treatments are needed?
The number of treatments needed varies from person to person. Complex or chronic conditions may require one to two treatments a week for several months. On the other hand acute problems and very painful conditions, such as acute back strain, may require several visits within a short period of time – 2-3x/week for two to three weeks. The number of treatments also depends on how quickly the patient responds to the acupuncture; some people respond immediately, while others need a series of sessions before experiencing significant benefit.
