FAQ
-
What conditions can it help?Our focus at Eldorado Healing Arts is combining acupuncture with bodywork, and electro-medicne to help people with musculoskeletal conditions and pain. However, since all systems in the body are interconnected our treatments can support overall health that creates optimal conditions for heath and healing of all body-mind systems.
-
How many treatments will I need?Each person will respond differently to treatment. Chronic conditions may take longer to respond. The usual course of treatment we recommend in 2 times a week for 4 weeks before we re-evaluate. Our goal with treatment is to increase your self-healing potential by increasing joint range of motion, tissue health, nervous system function and assist in re-organizing the subtle energy systems.
-
Will it help me?Every condition is different and every patient responds differently to therapy. That said, our treatments are beneficial for supporting the optimal healing potential of the body. In Asian cultures, acupuncture is widely accepted as a part of one's ongoing health regimen, which is a major reason why these societies have long enjoyed great health and longevity. Recent scientific research into the mechanisms of acupuncture has shown it capable of treating specific problems as well as increasing the overall systemic health and potential for self healing of an individual.
-
Will the acupuncture needles hurt?Most people find the experience relaxing and uplifting and some even fall asleep for the duration of the treatment. Although people experience different levels of sensitivity, we will work very closely with you to make sure your experience is comfortable and positive. Acupuncture needles are 25-50 times thinner than a hypodermic needle; they are so thin that several acupuncture needles can go into the middle of a hypodermic needle. We use a gentle needling technique in our clinic. Some people feel nothing at all, while others experience a brief moment of discomfort as the needle penetrates the skin. This may be followed by a mild sensation of heaviness as the body responds to the treatment.
