Acupuncture session in Valencia

What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine that uses very fine, sterile needles placed at specific points on the body. In Chinese medicine, health is understood as a balance of interconnected systems — when this balance is disrupted, symptoms arise. Acupuncture aims to support the body in restoring that balance.

Contemporary research continues to explore how acupuncture interacts with the nervous system and circulation. Many of my clients come after trying other approaches, looking for a whole-person way to support their wellbeing.

What happens in a session?

Each session follows a structured approach, though the details are always tailored to the individual.

• Consultation. We discuss your main concern, medical history, sleep, digestion, energy, and general wellbeing. The first session includes an extended consultation of up to 30 minutes.
• Assessment. I observe your tongue and take your pulse, two traditional assessment methods in Chinese medicine that help me choose the approach for your session.
• Needling. A small number of fine, sterile needles are placed at relevant points. You rest comfortably for around 20–40 minutes while the needles work.
• Additional techniques. Depending on your situation, I may also use moxibustion, cupping, or electro-acupuncture during the session.
• Review. We discuss how you felt and I give you any relevant advice for between sessions.

First session and follow-ups

The first session lasts up to 90 minutes and costs 75€. Follow-up sessions last up to 60 minutes and cost 65€. Packages of 4, 8 or 10 sessions are available. See full pricing.

How many sessions will I need?

It depends on your situation and how long you have been experiencing it. I usually recommend a course of 8 sessions: the first 3 to get to know you and find the approach you respond to best, sessions 4 to 6 to focus on that approach, and the last 2 to consolidate the work done. For long-standing or chronic conditions, these 8 sessions are usually the start, followed by less frequent maintenance sessions. Some recent issues may need fewer. I will give you an honest assessment after the first session, and we will always adjust depending on how you feel.

What styles do I use?

I draw on three main traditions depending on what works best for each person:

• Classical Acupuncture — rooted in the foundational texts of Chinese medicine
• TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) — the most widely practised contemporary system
• Master Tung Acupuncture — a classical lineage that uses distal points, often away from the area of concern

Is it right for me?

Acupuncture may be worth exploring if you:

• Have tried other approaches without lasting relief
• Are looking for a whole-body, personalised approach
• Want to address the underlying pattern, not just the symptoms
• Are curious about Chinese medicine and want to understand your body better
