Common Questions About Acupuncture
+ AM I A CANDIDATE FOR ACUPUNCTURE
The medical literature shows acupuncture’s effect on nearly every biophysical system in the body. I’ve seen patients suffering from a wide variety of problems respond to acupuncture treatment when nothing else has worked.
So, for most people, yes, acupuncture is something you should explore.
+ HOW MANY TREATMENTS WILL I NEED?
The number of treatments needed differs from person to person. For complex or long-standing conditions, one or two treatments a week for several months may be recommended. For acute problems, usually fewer visits are required, and for health maintenance, we recommend monthly tune ups.
+ DOES ACUPUNCTURE HURT?
No. It’s very comfortable. Most people end up taking a nap during their treatment and leave feeling refreshed and relaxed.
+ WHAT TRAINING IS REQUIRED TO PRACTICE ACUPUNCTURE?
A licensed acupuncturist must have completed a four year master's program, as well as internships and pass several state board exams. Taisha Gonzalez has gone well beyond the requirements, as she is double board-certified in both acupuncture and massage therapy.
