Frequently asked questions
Can I have acupuncture and massage together?
In some cases, acupuncture may be combined with massage or manual therapy. Your clinician will decide whether combining treatments is appropriate based on your symptoms and tolerance.
Can I exercise after acupuncture?
Gentle activity is usually acceptable. However, you may be advised to avoid intense exercise immediately after treatment, particularly if you feel tired or sore.
What should I wear?
Please wear comfortable clothing that allows your clinician to access the treatment area. You may be asked to adjust or remove some clothing while maintaining your privacy and dignity.
Can I drive after treatment?
Most people can drive normally after acupuncture. You should rest before leaving if you feel light-headed, tired or unwell.
Can acupuncture cure my condition?
Acupuncture should not be presented as a cure. It may help manage symptoms and support rehabilitation, but results vary between individuals.
