Body acupuncture is where most courses of care begin. After a short check-in on how the week has gone, we select between eight and sixteen points across the limbs, back and torso — some close to where it hurts, others far from it, chosen from the pattern we found at your consultation.
The needles are single-use, pre-sterilised and roughly the width of two human hairs. Most people feel a brief tap, then a dull, spreading heaviness. You rest for around twenty minutes while the treatment works; many people fall asleep.
Best for: lower back and neck pain, headaches and migraine, stress and anxiety, disrupted sleep, digestive complaints and menstrual pain.
