Benefits of treatment
A typical treatment plan would have two goals.
- Resolve the presenting problem.
- Treat the underlying condition that creates the environment for disease symptoms to manifest.
Some people come for acupuncture only, generally on a weekly basis. More often clients have a monthly consultation where they receive acupuncture and herbs. Once well, many people use acupuncture & herbal medicine as a way of maintaining health and visit for a consultation on a regular or seasonal basis. The practitioner will constantly review your progress and will offer general dietary and lifestyle advice when appropriate.
