Acupuncture in Harlow

Acupuncture is a therapeutic practice that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body.

Your first visit? *What to expect.*

The acupuncturist will start by asking you questions about your medical history, current symptoms and overall health, then create a treatment plan tailored to you and explain the approach and the number of sessions recommended.

You will be asked to lie down on a treatment table, and the acupuncturist will gently insert thin, sterile needles into specific points. The needles are typically painless or cause minimal discomfort. You may feel warmth, tingling or a mild dull ache around the needles.

Remember, each person's experience may vary, and it's essential to communicate openly with your acupuncturist about any concerns or questions you may have.
