Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient medicine in which fine needles are inserted into different areas of the body to signals the nervous system and the brain to release endorphins (our feel- good hormones) which aid in pain relief and increase circulation to that area. This simple action rebalances the energies of the body and triggers it to begin naturally healing itself, bringing your body back to its balance state.

Acupuncture is also a great preventative health measure. Remember, increased blood flow means your body is better able to heal itself, and will increase your immune system response, helping you better fight off and prevent disease.
Generally, it shouldn’t hurt but It is a possibility that you might be more sensitive in specific regions such as your hands and feet, may be particularly sensitive, because they have more touch sensitivity.
Keep in mind, we want you to be as comfortable as possible. So please do not hesitate to let us know if something is keeping you from resting comfortably. ٩(•̤̀ᵕ•̤́๑)ᵒᵏᵎᵎᵎᵎ
When it comes to acupuncture, it has accumulating effects which means.. the more you come, the better things get! ٩(＾◡＾)۶
But it also depends on the individual, what we’re treating, how long the issues have been happening for and how serious is it.
For acute conditions, it is preferably to come in for more frequents treatments in the first 1 – 2 weeks
For chronic conditions, treatments are spread out over longer duration
For maintenance, it is recommended to perform treatment once a month.
Facial Acupuncture
By stimulating beauty points with acupuncture, you can expect to see improvement for problems such as
- rough skin
- acne
- wrinkles
- sagging
- dullness
- swelling
- dark circles in the eyes
- and improve complexion
A major feature of cosmetic acupuncture is that the needles are applied directly to create microscopic wounds in the subcutaneous tissue. In the process of repairing and regenerating this wound, the production of collagen and elastin in dermal cells is promoted, improving the skin tissue. It is a natural beauty method that maximizes the “natural healing power” that people originally have and strengthens the power to become beautiful from the inside of the body ♡(◕ᗜ◕✿).
In addition, the decrease in blood flow due to the stiffness of the facial muscles (facial muscles and trapezius muscles) causes waste products to become stagnant and cause skin problems. By applying acupuncture to this muscle stiffness, blood flow is improved and increased, waste products are discharged smoothly, cells are activated, and metabolism is increased.
We recommend a clean skin for treatment. Facial cleanser, make up wipes are also provided at the clinic for you to use. If you need to touch up your makeup, please bring your own cosmetics.
The needles we use are much thinner than needles used for the body, everyone’s experience is different, a mild sensation might be felt but overall it shouldn’t hurt.
Like most acupuncture treatments, results of cosmetic rejuvenation treatments are cumulative.
A typical treatment plan includes 6-12 treatments.
This will depend on age, lifestyle and goals.
As a pace, we recommend treatment once a week for general establishment
For maintenance, it may be possible to perform treatment once a month.
Some areas are more delicate than others. Where the skin is thinner and there is less fat, temporary mild bruising or swelling may occur
Also, if the nutritional status of the blood vessels is poor, the blood vessels themselves become fragile and weak. Therefore, internal and subcutaneous bleeding can happen
We take the utmost care when performing the treatment, but please understand that it is difficult to perform the treatment without causing any bleeding.
Please think of internal bleeding as downtime like cosmetic surgery.
We recommend that you avoid
- Excessive exercise
- Excessive alcohol intake
- Hot or long baths.
And you should
- Stay Hydrated
- Protect your skin from sun exposure, remember sunscreen is your skin’s best friend °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
