How Often Should You Get Acupuncture Treatments?

How frequently you should get acupuncture treatments for your condition is going to depend on the condition being treated and the length of time you’ve experienced symptoms.  The longer you have had symptoms is going to increase how many sessions you need, as well as the frequency of your acupuncture sessions.

As a general guideline, Common Ground Wellness starts patients out getting treatments once per week until your symptoms stabilize. Clients with symptoms more severe, such as a pain level of 7 out of 10 or higher, may need to get acupuncture treatments twice a week until the pain level decreases.

Shelby explains how often you need to get acupuncture to get results.

Your acupuncturist will monitor your progress and adjust how often you should get acupuncture treatments based on your results.  Once your symptoms stabilize, and you feel well from one treatment to the next, we will decrease how often you should get acupuncture treatments.  If you are seeking support for low-level, chronic issues, we often recommend acupuncture treatments every 2 weeks or once per month.
