How often should I come for acupuncture?

Most patients begin with weekly acupuncture treatments to create consistent neurological signaling and momentum in healing. For acute pain or severe symptoms, treatments may be recommended twice weekly for a short period. As your symptoms improve, treatments are gradually spaced out to every 2–3 weeks and eventually monthly for maintenance and prevention.

Regularity is key: acupuncture works cumulatively. Consistent treatment strengthens the neural pathways involved in pain relief, emotional regulation, hormonal balance, digestion, and stress recovery. Once symptoms are stable, many people choose to continue monthly maintenance sessions to support long-term progress, prevent recurrence, and promote overall well-being.
