The benefits of acupuncture are cumulative, so more than one treatment is necessary. For acute conditions, you can expect to have 8-12 treatments. Chronic conditions may take longer. Preventative treatments and treatments for general well-being may also be scheduled on an as-needed basis.

There are three major patterns of response to acupuncture treatments: a. 75%-80% of people feel decrease/elimination of pain in minutes. b. Some people don't feel change until 24-48 hours after a treatment (delayed response). c. 5-10% of people get worse before they get better (healing crisis).

They may last from a couple of hours to a few days/weeks.

First few weeks-2x/week; follow up with weekly/monthly/as-needed treatments.

- I have trained in different styles of acupuncture, but I most commonly use the following styles: - Dr. Richard Niemtzow's Rapid (aka Battlefield) Acupuncture - Dr. Richard Tan's Global Balance Acupuncture - Master Tung's Acupuncture
