Does acupuncture need to be done many times?

Acupuncture can be done continuously. Whether a patient needs continuous acupuncture or not is not a one-size-fits-all approach and needs to be based on the specific condition of each patient. For example, patients with chronic diseases often do not need continuous acupuncture and need intermittent acupuncture.

To do acupuncture**, it takes about 30 minutes from **disinfection, acupuncture point selection, puncture, and finally acupuncture, and about 2 minutes for ear acupuncture to apply and pressure seeds**. Outpatient**, except for the first three consecutive days**, every 1-2 days** thereafter.

Regarding the acute phase of some diseases, such as the onset of acute lumbar sprain, acupuncture is generally done once a day, and the disease will be stopped. For some chronic diseases, as well as sub-health conditioning, you can choose acupuncture once a day for 10 to 12 consecutive days, then rest for 3 to 5 days, continue the next course of treatment, or stop. You can also choose to do acupuncture 3 to 5 times a week for 2 to 3 weeks.

In short, how often acupuncture is best depends on the patient's condition, constitution, and specific situation.

Hello! Moxibustion is also a slow job, take your time, I used to rub a cone-shaped hill with wormwood, about a centimeter high. Put it on the acupuncture point, ignite it from the tip to the bottom and burn it slowly, and burn it once.

It works great, but sometimes you accidentally burn yourself. I used to cut wormwood in the wild by myself. Come back to dry and rub yourself.

Now there are special moxibustion sticks, but I personally think the effect is not so good.

If the physical pain is not so severe, do it once every two or three days.

If it's severe, you can do it every day.

Precautions: Find your degree and don't get too close to avoid burns.

To enhance the effect, you can apply a slice of garlic to the affected area. This is all measured by myself.

Once a day, that's it. It depends on the condition. Generally, acupuncture retains the needle for about 20 minutes, and the same is true for electroacupuncture.

In the case of moxibustion, it depends on the condition. It's usually half an hour. You can also opt for warm acupuncture.

There are also ear acupuncture in acupuncture. That can leave the needle in place for a day to a few days, or for hours.

1. How many days does a course of acupuncture and moxibustion take, which mainly depends on the patient's physique, the type of disease, the severity of the disease and the method taken, and there is no unified regulation. Usually the condition is more severe, the onset time is relatively long, and the patient is relatively weak, the course of acupuncture needs to be longer, usually at least one month or more.

2. For new diseases, the patient has a better physique, and the treatment course is shorter for those with mild disease. For example, for acute onset of pain symptoms, acupuncture once is sufficient**. However, it should be noted that even for patients who need to take a long time, after a period of acupuncture, usually for a month, they need to rest for five days to a week to avoid repeated acupuncture for a long time, which will lead to a decrease in the sensitivity of acupuncture points and affect the efficacy.

3. Acupuncture treatment is like taking medicine, because the drug must have a certain concentration of medicine to produce efficacy in the body, which is the main reason for determining the number of times to take medicine and acupuncture; Acupuncture is the same as taking medicine, and the number of acupuncture sessions is chosen according to the severity of the condition. Just like the amount and frequency of light medication can be reduced, the heavy one should be relatively increased.

4. Acupuncture is a medical skill handed down by the ancestors of the Chinese people, and it is a medical method that most people trust from ancient times to the present, because although Western medicine has a fast effect, the possibility of disease is very high, although the course of treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is relatively long, it is from the root of the disease, so the effect of Chinese medicine acupuncture is still relatively good, which is praised by everyone. Acupuncture can be the best diseases, everyone should hear more about rheumatism, cervical spondylosis and other diseases, in fact, acupuncture also has other effects, such as the treatment of facial paralysis, ** and so on.

5. Generally speaking, the time to regulate the spleen and stomach through acupuncture is relatively long, and the course of treatment may take about 1-2 months.

There should be no effect, it is recommended that you do not worry and maintain a good mood
