How Many Acupuncture Treatments
 
			
			
			
			
			Every patient and severity of condition is different.  For 
			example, patients with chronic issues may be treated initially weekly 
			for a few times with follow-up treatments as often as every month.  
			Less chronic conditions may be treated every two weeks for a month; 
			then tapered as needed for maintenance.   Positive 
			responses may be observed after the first session, however it can 
			take up to four treatments to determine if a patient will be 
			receptive. Each session may take 10 to 60 minutes.
