A member asked:
Is there a limit to have many times i can have acupuncture every week?

No: No, but realistically that could be quite expensive to have accupuncture more than 1-2 times a week. The only limit would probably be your insurance and your pocketbook... And of course how much free time you have.

Not really.: If there is an acute injury that requires rapid recovery - acupuncture may be done daily. Most people limit themselves to once to twice a week. I work with wounded veterans who have many injuries - i often see them twice a week.
