Acupuncture is used to treat chronic pain, tension headaches, migraines, neck and back pain, osteoarthritis, sports injuries, muscle tension and fibromyalgia. It is often used alongside physiotherapy or osteopathy as part of a broader treatment plan.
An acupuncture session typically costs between 35 and 65 pounds. Initial consultations may be slightly more expensive as they include a detailed health history. Some practitioners offer course discounts.
Your practitioner will review your health history and current symptoms. Fine, sterile needles are inserted at selected points on the body and left in place for around 20 minutes. Most people find the process relaxing and experience minimal discomfort.
When carried out by a qualified practitioner, acupuncture is widely considered a low-risk treatment. Practitioners use single-use sterile needles and follow strict hygiene protocols. Possible minor effects include temporary drowsiness or mild bruising. Discuss any concerns with your practitioner before treatment.
