What Does Neuro-Acupuncture Feel Like?
Many first-time patients are concerned that acupuncture needles will feel like hypodermic injections at the doctor’s office. They won't. Neuro-acupuncture uses hair-thin, flexible needles that stimulate a mild sensation when inserted.
The sensations you will feel vary depending on the body area and your unique biology and may range from a tingle, heaviness, travelling sensation, or warmth. These momentary sensations are the key to getting good results by stimulating your nervous system.
Most patients find these acupuncture sensations deeply satisfying and leave the treatment feeling mentally and physically relaxed.
Neuro-acupuncture treatments stimulate the rest, digest and healing (parasympathetic) division of the nervous system and create deep relaxation
in both mind and body.
What Results Can I Expect?
The benefits of neuro-acupuncture are cumulative. Often, more than one treatment is needed for the desired results. For most conditions, you can expect to have 4 to 10 treatments.
People often begin to feel relief after their first treatment. Chronic conditions may take longer to respond, depending on the type, severity, and duration of the condition. Preventative treatments and treatments for general well-being or maintenance may also be scheduled as needed.
Most conditions involving the nerves and nervous system can be treated with neuro-acupuncture. Clients are often pleasantly surprised that their pain or dysfunction, which has often been challenging to treat with conventional medical treatments, responds well to neuro-acupuncture.
