When You May Need More Than Acupuncture

Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine can be valuable forms of healthcare, but they are not appropriate for every situation. If your symptoms suggest you need medical investigation, urgent treatment, or another form of specialist care, I will always encourage you to seek appropriate medical attention. In some situations, the best approach is acupuncture alongside conventional healthcare, not instead of it. Your safety comes first.
