Acupuncture involves the placement of very fine, sterile, single-use needles at carefully selected points on the body.
Each treatment is tailored to your symptoms, health history, comfort level and individual wellness goals.
Naturopathic acupuncture may be used alongside conventional medical care and other wellness treatments. With your consent, your naturopathic doctor can consider your medications, medical history, laboratory results and existing treatment plans when developing recommendations.
Acupuncture is intended to complement, not replace, appropriate care from your family doctor, specialist or other regulated healthcare professionals.

Most patients experience little to no discomfort. The needles used are extremely fine, and your naturopathic doctor will explain each step and adjust the treatment based on your comfort level.
The number of treatments varies depending on your concerns, treatment goals and response to care. Some patients may notice changes after a few appointments, while others may benefit from a longer series of treatments.
Naturopathic acupuncture is not covered by OHIP. Some extended health-benefit plans may provide coverage when treatment is performed by a registered naturopathic doctor. Patients should confirm their individual coverage with their insurance provider.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to areas such as the arms, legs or lower back. You may also be asked to adjust or remove certain clothing depending on the treatment area.
It is generally recommended to have a light meal or snack before your appointment and avoid arriving on an empty stomach.
