Many people come to acupuncture for help with specific symptoms or to relieve specific pains like osteoarthritis of the knee. Some use acupuncture because they feel generally unwell but have no obvious diagnosis. Others choose acupuncture simply to enhance their feeling of wellbeing. Click here to see the latest research. Acupuncture is considered suitable for all ages including babies and children. It can be used effectively alongside conventional medicine.
In your first meeting Quintus will ask you a range of questions to evaluate your health picture and to design a treatment plan specific to you. This first session is important for you and Quintus to establish a good working relationship.
During treatment you Quintus will use sterile needles that are used only for the session and discarded afterwards. When a needle is inserted you may feel the needle; the sensation is often like a tugging feeling or a dull ache, the needles can be left in for up to 20 minutes or sometimes inserted for only a few seconds.
This is your treatment and everything that happens in your session will be discussed with you.
