How many acupuncture sessions will I need?

Treatment frequency depends on the severity, duration, and underlying root causes of your condition. Acute issues such as recent injuries or sudden pain may improve within 3–6 sessions. Chronic conditions—including long-standing pain, hormonal imbalances, digestive issues, autoimmune tendencies, fertility concerns, and nervous system dysregulation—typically require a structured treatment plan over several weeks to months.

At our Denver acupuncture clinic, your plan is personalized based on your goals, how your body responds, and whether functional medicine testing is recommended to uncover deeper imbalances.

Additional FAQs

How do I know if acupuncture is working?
Most patients notice changes in pain, sleep, stress levels, digestion, or energy within the first few treatments.

Do chronic conditions take longer?
Yes. Long-standing conditions often require cumulative treatments because multiple body systems are involved.
