Headaches
Every person suffers from different types of headaches. They may be linked with hormonal cycles, stress, foods, or be unexplained in origin. I have found that often people who get a first treatment for headaches may experience one after a first treatment. The aim is to help reduce pain intensity and duration.
Muscle and joint pain
This is normally the most common reason people seek acupuncture treatment.
When there is pain in the lower back, radiating down the leg, often an acupuncture treatment can quickly help release the muscle pinching on the nerve causing the pain.
It is safe to get acupuncture treatment at any age, even if on painkillers.
