FAQ
Answers to
your questions
What is acupuncture and how does it work?
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine practice (TCM) that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to alleviate pain and treat certain emotional, physical, and mental conditions by working along the body’s energy pathways, known as meridians.
It is part of a broader range of TCM therapies that form a complete medical system, aimed at correcting imbalance, improving circulation and energy flow, and supporting a balanced lifestyle that promotes healing from within.
What conditions can acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture is potentially effective in treating a variety of conditions, including pain relief/pain management, stress, anxiety, digestive issues and more. It can help address both the root cause and the symptom.
Is acupuncture safe?
Yes, when performed by a qualified practitioner, acupuncture is safe and has minimal side effects. Our team at Village Remedies consists of professionals with years of clinical experience who ensure the highest health care standards during each session.
How many acupuncture sessions will I need to see results?
The number of sessions varies depending on the individual and the condition being treated. We will provide you with a rough estimate of the number of sessions required during your initial consultation with us, and develop a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.
Is acupuncture painful?
How are acupuncture treatments tailored for different health conditions?
We take a holistic approach, considering your full health history and concerns. Your session may include acupuncture, a custom herbal formula, and other natural therapies based on your condition, such as stress, mental health, fatigue, fertility, skin issues or in some cases a chronic condition.
What is a TCM practitioner?
A TCM practitioner is trained in Traditional Chinese Medicine, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, and more. They treat the root cause of your health condition rather than just symptoms, often addressing underlying imbalances that affect the body’s natural harmony.
TCM practitioners are typically registered with the Chinese Medicine Board Aphra, ensuring they meet professional standards and provide safe, effective care. They also guide patients in adjusting their lifestyle to support long-term health and wellbeing.
Can acupuncture be combined with other forms of therapy?
Absolutely. Acupuncture complements many other treatments and can enhance overall therapeutic effectiveness. Some clients also choose to combine acupuncture with remedial massage for added relief and recovery support.
How long is a session & what can I expect during the treatment?
A typical session lasts about 45 to 60 minutes. It involves an assessment of your condition and the insertion of needles, which are usually left in place for about 20 to 30 minutes.
Additional herbal treatment / herbal remedies may be recommended to support your progress between visits.
Can acupuncture help with specific health concerns like lower back pain or headaches?
Yes. Acupuncture is widely used to treat health conditions like lower back pain, headaches, neck tension, and more. Our practitioners use techniques based on both Chinese medicine and modern health science to target your symptoms effectively.
Can acupuncture help with chronic pain?
Do you offer acupuncture services in the Sydney CBD & Balmain?
Yes, we offer comprehensive acupuncture in Sydney CBD and Balmain.
Our acupuncture services include distal style acupuncture, dry needling, motor point acupuncture and electro acupuncture, and can support a range of health issues including womens health, ivf support, stress, and fatigue.
What’s the difference between acupuncture and massage therapy?
Both can relieve pain and tension, but they work differently. Acupuncture targets the body’s internal systems via acupuncture points, while a massage therapist works more directly with soft tissues. Many of our clients benefit from combining the two.
How do I book an acupuncture session at Village Remedies?
It’s easy! Simply fill out the form to schedule your appointment. You can choose the most convenient time and location for your session — we have clinics in both Sydney and Balmain.
We also work alongside other Western medicine professionals when appropriate to provide integrated care.
