Frequently Asked Questions.

---

Do I have to undress? 

No. All points used in community acupuncture are accessible with clothing on.

Do the needles hurt? 

Most people feel almost nothing — a tiny tap, a dull ache, or nothing at all.

Can I fall asleep? 

Yes, many people do. It’s encouraged.

How long is a session ? 

Usually 45 minutes total (10 minutes for settling in, ~30–35 minutes resting).

Is this covered by insurance? 

Yes,  if your plan covers acupuncture.
Receipts can be issued under the treating Registered Acupuncturist.

Can I choose which practitioner to see? 

Not for community sessions — you’ll be treated by whichever R.Ac is working that evening.

What conditions can acupuncture help with? 

Pain, stress, anxiety, digestion, menstrual health, sleep issues, emotional balance, and general wellness support — among many others.
