Frequently Asked Questions About Acupuncture & Cupping
Does acupuncture hurt?
Most people find acupuncture to be a relaxing experience. The needles are very thin—about the width of a strand of hair—and are inserted gently. You may feel a slight tingling, warmth, or a mild sensation, but it shouldn’t be painful. Many patients even fall asleep during their session!
Does cupping leave marks?
Yes, cupping may leave circular marks on the skin, but they are not bruises. These marks are caused by increased blood flow to the area and typically fade within a few days. Many people see them as a sign that circulation is improving and the body is releasing tension and toxins.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of treatments varies based on your individual health concerns and goals. Some people notice improvements after just one session, while others may benefit from a series of treatments over several weeks. During your consultation, we’ll create a plan tailored to your needs.
Is acupuncture safe?
Yes! Acupuncture is a safe and natural therapy when performed by a trained professional. At Hope Natural Health, we use sterile, single-use needles and follow all safety protocols to ensure your comfort and well-being.
Can acupuncture help with hormonal imbalances and period problems?
Absolutely. Acupuncture is a powerful tool for supporting hormone balance, improving menstrual regularity, fertility, reducing PMS symptoms, and easing cramps. Many women find relief from painful or irregular periods, mood swings, and other hormonal concerns.
What should I do before and after an acupuncture session?
Before your appointment, it’s best to eat a light meal and stay hydrated. Avoid caffeine right before your session, as it can make it harder to relax. Afterward, take it easy and drink plenty of water to support your body’s healing process.
Can I combine acupuncture with other treatments?
Yes! Acupuncture works wonderfully alongside naturopathic care, herbal medicine, nutrition, and other holistic treatments. It’s an excellent addition to your overall wellness plan.
Is acupuncture covered by insurance?
Coverage for acupuncture varies by provider. While we do not bill insurance directly, we can provide you with a superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement.
