Acupuncture Treatment Questions

Does Acupuncture hurt?

Acupuncture Needle Size
Acupuncture Needle Size – Smaller than you think!

No, Acupuncture does not hurt. Acupuncture is virtually painless. Acupuncture needles are ultra-fine unlike large doctors needles. You can fit many Acupuncture needles down the hollow barrel of a doctors needle. Now thats small!

Our practitioners use a gentle insertion technique where the needles can hardly be felt during insertion.

Let’s also put the size of the needles used in an Acupuncture treatment into perspective. You could fit approximately 8 Acupuncture Needles inside a typical Doctor’s Medical syringe. Acupuncture needles are rounded towards the tip where as a medical syringe is sharp.

At our Acupuncture Gold Coast clinic we use ultra fine Japanese needles which are even smaller than traditional Chinese Acupuncture needles.

How long does a treatment take?
Your initial consultation and treatment takes approximately 45 minutes. Please arrive 5 minutes early to fill out appropriate paperwork. A followup treatment lasts approximately 30-45 minutes.
