Sterile, safe and super relaxing
Acupuncture needles are very fine and flexible, about the size of a human hair. They bare no resemblance to the needles used when receiving an injection. In most cases, insertion by our Registered Acupuncturists (R. Ac’s) is performed with minimal discomfort. All needles are used only once and each point is alcohol swabbed prior to insertion. A new individual needle is opened from a sterile and sealed package for each point applied.
How Acupuncture Works
Acupuncture points are inserted in historically charted precise spots on the body. These spots when needled produce powerful healing functions such as reducing back pain, releasing the shoulders, inducing sleep and calming the mind. Other points are inserted in carefully palpated area’s of pain which are known as “ashi” points. Needling certain points have been proven to do all kinds of amazing things in the body such as reduce inflammation, repair damaged nerve tissue and balance hormones. Our treatments involve a great deal of training knowledge and intuition. We believe that zeroing in on the exact location of an issue is what has made our treatments powerful. We are experts at finding the exact spot. We get right to the point.

No acupuncture should never be painful! Although every practitioner has their own style, all of our therapists share the same belief that if you are uncomfortable while receiving care, your body won’t heal. We encourage patient feedback to let us know if a point doesn’t’ feel good or is painful and we’ll adjust the needle or remove it. Clinical acupuncture needles are SUPER thin and not meant to do anything else than stimulate a tiny spot.
Needle retention depends on your condition and what other modalities we are incorporating into your treatment (such as cupping). Usually we retain needles anywhere between 10-30 minutes.
That depends on how long you have had a condition and how severe it is. The longer and more serious a condition is, usually will indicate you will require more treatments. We do find that the sweet spot is usually around 3-5 sessions to start seeing results whether that be a reduction in pain, increased mobility etc. We will have a better idea of how many acupuncture treatments you will require after we assess your health intake and complete the first session. We will work with you to make sure you can manage bookings that align with your budget and schedule. We rarely suggest patients come more than 1/week. We do not believe in high pressure or over booking tactics.
No. We are strong at treating health conditions and are experienced at providing all of our core services including cupping, cosmetic acupuncture, moxibustion, gua sha and facial cupping. To help you choose a therapist you can learn more about our individual education and experience in our bio section.
We are a general, high-volume clinic and all of us can effectively treat any condition for a clinical acupuncture appointment. We are experienced at fixing all health conditions. Our reputation for hiring skilled and caring practitioners that can help any health condition extends to all therapists that work at The Bronte Naturopathic Detox & Wellness Centre . The only difference in “specialties” would be that some of us don’t offer Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine.
