Frequently Asked Questions

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice that involves inserting thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the nervous system and promote natural healing. The idea is that energy, or "Qi" (pronounced chee), flows through the body along meridian pathways. When these pathways become blocked, it can cause pain, stress, or illness. Acupuncture helps restore balance, improve blood circulation, and encourage the body to release endorphins, which are natural painkillers.

Most people find acupuncture to be painless or only mildly uncomfortable. The needles are much thinner than regular medical needles (about the width of a human hair), so they do not cause the same pain as a shot or blood draw. You may feel a slight tingling, warmth, or pressure at the insertion point, but it usually fades quickly. Many patients find acupuncture relaxing and even fall asleep during the session.

Acupuncture is commonly used to reduce pain and inflammation, but it also treats a wide range of conditions, including:

  • Chronic pain (back pain, neck pain, arthritis)
  • Migraines and headaches
  • Stress, anxiety, and depression
  • Insomnia and sleep disorders
  • Digestive issues (IBS, bloating, acid reflux)
  • Hormonal imbalances and fertility issues

Some people also use acupuncture to support immune function and general wellness, even if they don’t have specific health concerns.

The number of sessions depends on your specific condition and how your body responds to treatment. Some people experience relief after just one session, while others need 6–10 treatments spread out over weeks or months. Chronic conditions may require ongoing sessions for long-term relief. Your acupuncturist will create a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.

Acupuncture costs range from $50 to $150 per session, depending on location and practitioner experience. Some insurance companies cover acupuncture for pain management or specific conditions, but coverage varies. It’s best to check with your provider to see if your plan includes acupuncture.
