What are the benefits of acupuncture?
The benefits of acupuncture are endless. Aside from reducing pain from an affected area of the body, such as the back, neck, feet, legs, or joint pain, acupuncture helps to reduce stress levels, improve the immune system, digestive system, and it also helps to relieve common headaches. Acupuncture as also been known to assist with mental health and provides clarity to the mind, body and soul.
Does acupuncture hurt?
Although everybody has a different tolerance to pain, at House of Life, Dr Marina will ensure that acupuncture will never hurt your body or area you wish to target. The beauty of our acupuncture needles is that they have a round edge, so they never cut/break your skin. It is normal to feel the needles ‘doing their job’, but if at any time during the treatment you feel discomfort or pain, please notify Dr Marina immediately.
