What to expect — your first session
Your initial session begins with a thorough health history – your background, what’s been going on, and what you’ve already tried – alongside Chinese Medicine assessment including tongue, pulse and abdominal palpation. From this, Tanya works out a Chinese Medicine pattern and an initial treatment plan, delivered in a nurturing, unhurried environment.
Follow-up sessions
Each follow-up begins with a review of how you’ve responded to treatment. Your signs and symptoms guide the session, and the plan is adjusted as your body shifts – briefer than the initial consultation, but an integral part of each visit.
How many sessions will I need?
This depends on what you’re working with and how your body responds. Some people notice change quickly; others more gradually. As a guide, the longer something has been present, the longer it may take to shift.
Most people start weekly and space sessions out as things settle – fortnightly, then monthly. Some stop altogether; others come back seasonally for a tune-up. What suits you is something Tanya will work out with you once she has seen how you respond, rather than something to decide from a website.
FAQs
For starters, the needles used for Acupuncture treatments at Blissful Being Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine, serving Kirra, Tweed Heads and the Southern Gold Coast, are nothing like those you get at the doctor – they are super-fine and usually painless when inserted. If you feel anything it would most likely feel something like a mosquito bite. However, if at any time during the treatment you wish to have the needles removed this will be done quickly and without fuss – you are always in charge of your treatment and you will never be left alone without having a bell to ring for immediate assistance. If you would like treatment without needles, then alternatively acupressure along with the use of special magnets on acupoints can be used instead. All other therapies offered – cupping, massage, moxibustion and Medical Qi Gong – will of course still be used in conjunction with these alternatives, as required.
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is a complete system of medicine with its own way of understanding the body, practised for thousands of years. That doesn’t mean it suits everything – what it helps with, and how much, varies from person to person.
Acupuncture may assist with back and knee pain, and with fatigue, stress and sleep. If what you’re dealing with sits outside that, Tanya will say so rather than book you in.
Acupuncture very rarely hurts – the needles are that fine. On the occasion something is felt, it’s usually akin to a mosquito bite and passes quickly. Most people are surprised by how relaxing the session is; plenty fall asleep on the table.
