Every acupuncture treatment at Ānshén Acupuncture starts with a Chinese medicine assessment, so your plan is built around your history and current concerns, for clients across the Gold Coast.
Your initial acupuncture consultation is a 90 minute appointment where we review your health history, current concerns and treatment goals. A Chinese medicine assessment is completed before your personalised treatment begins.

Alongside acupuncture, your practitioner may include one of the following where it suits your treatment plan. These are discussed with you first.
Good to know
If you haven't been treated here before, book an Initial Acupuncture appointment: the 90 minutes allows time for a full history and assessment. Returning clients book Follow-Up Acupuncture.
The needles are very fine. Most people describe a mild sensation as a needle is placed, then settle comfortably for the rest of the session. Tell your practitioner at any point if something doesn't feel right.
Loose, comfortable clothing is ideal. You'll be appropriately covered and draped throughout your appointment.
That varies from person to person. After your initial appointment we'll talk through a suggested plan, and we review your progress as we go rather than committing you to a fixed course upfront.
Appointments are currently available on Thursdays between 9:00am and 5:00pm. Call 0408 290 001 or email us if you'd like to discuss availability.
