FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What can I expect from a typical treatment?

 

Treatments are tailored to the individual. They may draw from one or a range of techniques, including: TuiNa massage, acupuncture, cupping, and moxibustion. A typical session involves an in-depth consultation, followed by a hands-on treatment designed to address both the root cause and symptoms of any imbalance.

 

How long is a session?

 

Most sessions last 1.5 hours, allowing plenty of time for assessment, treatment, and wind-down. This comprehensive approach supports deep and lasting therapeutic benefits.

 

What is the cost of treatment?

 

• Initial Consultation & Treatment (2 hours): £90

• Standard Follow-Up Session (1.5 hours): £75

• Extended Treatments (2–3 hours): Available upon request.

Do I need to bring anything?

 

Just wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing if possible. All other equipment and materials are provided. If you’re coming for the first time, you may also wish to bring any relevant medical history or details of past treatments.

 

How many sessions will I need?

 

This varies depending on your condition and goals. Some people feel significant improvement after just one session, while others benefit from a course of treatments. We’ll outline a treatment plan after your initial consultation.

 

Is Acupuncture painful?

 

Acupuncture uses very fine needles. Most people feel little to no discomfort. You may notice a tingling, warm, or dull ache around the needle site—this is a normal and often positive response known as De Qi.

 

What is TuiNa and how is it different from regular massage?

 

TuiNa is a form of Chinese medical massage that uses dynamic techniques such as kneading, rolling, and stretching to stimulate the acupuncture points and meridians. Unlike relaxation-oriented massage, TuiNa targets specific imbalances and is often part of a wider therapeutic treatment.
