What is Electro Acupuncture?
Electro acupuncture is quite similar to traditional acupuncture in that the same points are stimulated during treatment only with the addition of an electrical current. The effects of electro acupuncture are stronger then a standard acupuncture treatment. The needles are inserted as per normal acupuncture and then attached to a device that generates continuous electric pulses using small clips. These devices are used to adjust the frequency and intensity of the impulse being delivered, depending on the condition being treated.

Does is hurt?
Electro acupuncture makes a person think of something hideous like electroshock therapy or being electrocuted but rest assured electro acupuncture is nothing like that. The electrical current is so small it feels like a buzz or a tingle. You are in complete control the entire time of how high the machine is turned up and rest assured the machine does not have the strength to be able to electrocute you.
Most people come back from their first session of electro acupuncture requesting we use the machine again.
How much does acupuncture cost?
Whether it be a regular acupuncture session or an electro acupuncture session the costs are same. 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.
