How long does the effect of acupuncture last?
It depends on the condition and the frequency of your acupuncture treatments. I've found it's more of an individual basis depending on how well that individual responds to acupuncture. Usually within 10 visits you get a really good idea and can begin to ween off visits down to 2x/mo or 1x/mo etc. Some conditions can be lifelong after so many treatments like stroke that has not been treated immediately.

Can acupuncture help in treating vertigo?
We have acupuncture points for vertigo and I have helped several patients with this issue. Acupuncture can help, but for a better prognosis, at least a consult would be best. Live happy, Michael READ MORE
