Q:
What should I do before treatment?
2010-06-02
A:
You should try not to have a large meal within an hour of your appointment as the process of digestion will alter the pattern of your pulse. You should also avoid alcohol, and food or drinks which colour your tongue, such as coffee, immediately prior to treatment.

Q:
Is acupuncture treatment safe?
2010-06-02
A:
Acupuncture is generally very safe. The needles we used are pre-sterilised with top quality, and used once only, before being disposed of safely. There have been three surveys in the last six years which have shown that acupuncture is amongst the safest therapies in use in the UK today. Out of 68,000 recorded treatments in two of the 2001 surveys, there were only 14 minor (bruising, feeling nauseous) adverse events.
