Acupuncture in Liverpool
Acupuncture involves placing fine needles at chosen points on the body. It may help people manage a range of symptoms including pain, stress and fatigue. We talk through your health first, and explain what to expect before we begin.
Other care
Acupuncture does not replace medical care. Keep seeing your GP for any ongoing health condition.
What to expect
Your first appointment starts with questions about your health and what you would like help with. Needles stay in place for a short time while you rest.
Risks and aftercare
Small bruises or minor soreness can happen. Tell us if you are pregnant, take blood thinners or have a medical condition, as this may change the approach.
Does acupuncture hurt?
Most people feel a small pinch or dull sensation. Tell us if it is uncomfortable.
How is it different from dry needling?
They use similar needles but come from different traditions and reasoning. We can explain which is being offered and why.
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book without a GP referral. If your GP has referred you under a Medicare plan, bring the paperwork and tell us when you book.
