Acupuncture is one of the oldest healing methods known to man.  The theory of Chinese medicine is by placing extremely fine needles into specific points on the body, we restore the free flow of energy, allowing the body to heal itself.

How much does acupuncture cost?

We offer acupuncture services at two price points, one for Standard Acupuncturists and one for Senior Acupuncturists with advanced training and over a decade of experience.

We do not Bulk-bill

* Ancillary treatments such as cupping or gua sha are $75 per session (time allowance 25 minutes).

How much extra does is cost if I get cupping or shockwave as part of an initial or follow-up treatment?

Nothing .  We understand no one likes walking into a an appointment not knowing how much it is going to cost them.  At TLC Acupuncture Brisbane we are determined to give our patients the best service at an affordable price so we do not charge additional fees for these services when the acupuncturist does them as part of an acupuncture treatment.  The practitioner will decide what type of treatment you need for your complaint and with your approval will treat you accordingly.

Our acupuncture costs differ from our competition in that we also do not charge you in 10 minute blocks.  We have a set fee and set adequate amount of time that practitioners work within.  Ensuring you have the freedom to discuss your health complaints at length without having to worry about how much extra it is costing you.

Are there any additional fees?

Our practitioners will always talk to you in advance and ask for your approval if they are offering you something which is at an additional charge to your session,  These include products or treatments requiring the use of more expensive supplies.

Health funds and HICAPS

TLC Acupuncture Brisbane maintains the highest level of care and is registered with ALL the health funds allowing our patients to claim the health fund rebates.

Hicaps is available in all our clinics for instant rebates so you may simply swipe your health fund card and only pay the gap, saving you the time of having to claim the money back from your health insurer.

Health fund members can usually claim around half of this cost back, though it varies depending upon your health fund and level of cover.
