Frequently asked questions
How many sessions of Acupuncture are needed?
Depending on your symptoms and constitution, one session may be enough or a course of several may be advised. At the first visit the doctor suggests a plan that fits your length of stay.
I have never had acupuncture or herbal medicine. Are there side effects?
Acupuncture can cause temporary bruising or soreness, and herbal medicine may cause mild digestive discomfort for some. Tell the doctor about medications and allergies in advance so the prescription can be adjusted.
Can I take herbal medicine home with me?
Packaged herbal medicine can usually be carried, but import rules differ by country. Keep the ingredient list with the prescription and check your home country's customs rules before departure.
Can I combine it with conventional medical treatment?
In many cases yes, but interactions with your medication must be checked. Tell the doctor about ongoing treatment so a safe plan can be made.
