Question
Does acupuncture ALWAYS work for people? Or, does it sometimes NOT work? How long does it take to notice relief from a chronic pain condition?

Answer
Hello Kristy,

  Almost everyone does notice a positive effect with acupuncture treatment.  Some patients will not follow through with the treatment plan and do not see the desired results.  A exam must be done to determine a treatment plan, some people notice relief in one or two treatments.  With chronic conditions more treatments are likely.

Have a great day,
Dr. Brendon O'Brien D.C.
