Frequently Asked Questions

At Onyeka Tefari Wellness and Spa, we believe that informed choices are the foundation of your wellness journey. Acupuncture is a time-honored healing practice that has been trusted for centuries to restore balance and promote natural healing within the body. Whether you're new to acupuncture or curious about how it can support your specific needs, we’ve created this guide to answer your most common questions and help you feel confident about taking the next step toward holistic well-being.

Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It involves the gentle insertion of fine, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow (or qi). This helps restore balance, promote healing, and support the body’s natural ability to function optimally.

Most clients describe acupuncture as a painless or minimally uncomfortable experience. You may feel a slight tingling, warmth, or pressure when the needles are inserted, but these sensations are generally mild and relaxing. Many people find the treatment so soothing that they fall asleep during the session.

Acupuncture is a versatile therapy that can address a wide range of physical, emotional, and energetic concerns. Common reasons people seek acupuncture include pain relief, stress reduction, improved sleep, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances, fertility support, and immune system strengthening.

The number of sessions depends on your individual needs and goals. Some clients experience relief after just one session, while others benefit from a series of treatments for chronic or long-standing issues. Your practitioner will work with you to create a personalized plan.

  • Wear loose, comfortable clothing to allow easy access to acupuncture points.

  • Eat a light meal or snack before your session to avoid feeling lightheaded.

  • Arrive a few minutes early to relax and settle in.

  • Be ready to discuss your health history, concerns, and goals with your practitioner.

Your session will begin with a consultation to discuss your needs. Your practitioner will then gently insert the needles and allow you to rest for 20-30 minutes. Most clients feel deeply relaxed during this time. Afterward, your practitioner will check in with you and provide any aftercare recommendations.

Acupuncture is generally safe and well-tolerated. Some clients may experience mild side effects, such as slight bruising, drowsiness, or temporary soreness at the needle sites. These effects are typically short-lived and part of the healing process.

Yes! Acupuncture complements many other therapies, including massage, Reiki, Biofield Tuning, and conventional medical treatments. It’s a holistic approach that works well alongside other modalities to enhance your overall well-being.

Many clients feel deeply relaxed, energized, or both after an acupuncture session. Some notice immediate improvements, while others experience gradual changes over the following days. It’s common to feel a sense of calm, clarity, or even emotional release as your body integrates the treatment.

Absolutely. We use single-use, sterile, disposable needles to ensure your safety and comfort. Hygiene and safety are our top priorities.

Some insurance plans cover acupuncture, so we recommend checking with your provider. We’re happy to provide receipts or documentation for you to submit to your insurance company.
