This first appointment will involve spending some time getting to know you, talking about your health goals, looking at your health history and asking some questions about your lifestyle. All treatments are confidential and Vicky strives to create a safe and non judgmental space for all.

In addition, a number of different TCM diagnostic methods will be used and these include feeling your pulses and looking at your tongue.

Vicky will explain how acupuncture works and what to expect and will answer any questions you might have.

The majority of patients will need a series of treatment such as once a week for 6-8 weeks until their symptoms resolve. However some patients like to use acupuncture monthly for general "maintenance". Everybody is unique in the timeframe of how they respond to acupuncture - but its good to remember that the benefits of the treatments are cumulative.

Very fine needles* are then gently inserted into specifically selected acupuncture points on the body to regulate the flow of ‘qi’, your body’s vital energy. The needles are retained for anywhere between 20 and 40 minutes - the length of time of depends on the age and comfort of the patient.

Acupuncture generally does not hurt and most patients say that during and after treatments they feel very calm and peaceful.

In addition to Acupuncture, treatments may also incorporate other Traditional Chinese Medicine modalities such as Cupping therapy.

*The single-use sterile needles that are used come in sealed packs and are safely disposed of after each treatment.
