Acupuncture has been used to treat men’s health concerns for thousands of years and is growing in popularity. The reason for this growth in popularity is that many health issues that men face, such as urination problems, prostate problems and sexual problems, respond extremely well to acupuncture treatments. Acupuncture can also address stress, anxiety, digestive issues, weight loss, pain relief, and other ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle for men.

Pain & Stress Relief
For millions of people who live with pain/stress, acupuncture is no longer an exotic curiosity. It’s now widely accepted among the medical community. And it’s pretty popular with patients as well. Our Pain & Stress Relief Program is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine theory and has instant and remarkable results in treating pain and stress/emotionally caused conditions.
Pain Management
Whatever the cause, if you are experiencing physical pain due to overuse, injury, strain, sprain, arthritis, remember that acupuncture is an excellent way to relieve pain and speed healing of the injury. Unlike taking the painkiller, the efficacy of acupuncture treatment is not only temporary pain relief but also improve blood circulation and achieving the overall balance of your physical condition.
At Acurepoint Health Clinic, we can reduce or eliminate many kinds of physical pain, not just musculoskeletal pain. Pain from headaches, migraines, fibromyalgia, surgery, and menstrual pain are all commonly treated by us.
Pain Relief Program
Acupuncture will most often reduce pain in a single visit. However, in most cases, the pain level will gradually begin to creep back up within 1-4 days. With each successive treatment, the pain level should be reduced further and should creep back more slowly. A course of treatment is complete when the pain no longer returns, and the number of treatments required varies based on the individual’s overall state of health as well as the degree and duration of the symptom. For best and quickest results, frequent treatments are encouraged. A second treatment should take place before the pain has a chance to reach its original intensity.
Our Pain & Stress Relief Program includes:
- Individualized Counseling
- Customized Acupuncture Treatments
- Remedial Massage/Ear Acupuncture/Cupping if needed

Patient Information
First Appointment
The following suggestions are provided to help you have a safe and relaxing experience with your treatment. If you have any questions, please contact us prior to your first visit.
- Be sure to arrive at your appointment early. Arriving early will give you time to complete any necessary paperwork and relax before your treatment.
- Bring a list of current medications and try to come to the appointment in a relaxed state of mind so as to help your body accept the treatment to its fullest.
- It is best to eat a light meal or snack an hour or two prior to your appointment – you will be most comfortable if you are neither hungry nor stuffed. Also don’t eat or drink anything that can discolor your tongue (coffee, mints, soft drinks, etc).
- Do not brush or scrape your tongue when you brush your teeth before acupuncture.
- Avoid alcohol on the day of your treatment. Acupuncture is not performed on intoxicated individuals due to the increased risk of shock. It is also not advisable to become intoxicated shortly after treatment.
- Please wear loose, comfortable clothing with pants that can be rolled up to the knee.
Post-Treatment Care
We hope these tips can help to improve your comfort and enhance the effect of your treatment after your visit to our clinic. As always, if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact our clinic and practitioners.
- During and after your treatment you may feel relaxed, slightly “spacey”, or pleasantly energized. Some people feel nothing at all. All of these reactions are considered normal.
- In the hours after a treatment, your body is still going through a physiological rebalancing process. To maximize the treatment effect, avoid vigorous exercise, hot tubs, and drugs or alcohol for several hours.
- Sometimes bruising, small lumps or pain may occur after treatment. This is an indication of the body clearing out stagnation of the toxins. It will usually clear within a few days.
- Some people often can feel a little light-headed after a treatment. This is normal as it is the result of the endorphins released during the treatment.
- Drink two or three extra glasses of room temperature water following the session to allow for any toxins to be flushed out, particularly after the massage.
- The last but not least is stay warm. We also recommend a warm neck pillow for at-home relaxation.
- You may notice relief of your health concern in the hours or days following your session or it may take several sessions to experience a change. In the majority of cases, a clear benefit is evident within 3-4 sessions (although more sessions may be required to thoroughly resolve the problem).

Senior Diseases
People in Australia are living longer than ever before. However, senior life is not just living longer, but staying healthy. More than half of all adults 65 and older have three or more chronic medical problems, such as Alzheimer’s disease, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, or arthritis. Acupuncture has a long history in the treatment of senior health concerns. As seniors are subjected to a wide range of medications, Acupuncture helps to restore the natural Qi energy flow throughout the body, reducing the need for so many over-the-counter medicines. Acupuncture can also help to reduce the side effects of stronger medicines and is even known to help boost the efficacy of prescribed drugs.
Women’s Health
21st Century life-style can be challenging, particularly for women who are required to become masters of juggling multiple aspects of life all at the same time. Many women come to our clinic exhausted, dealing with “mysterious” health issues and looking for answers. Thankfully, acupuncture and Chinese medicine may be able to help and it is ideal for women looking for support in following areas: fertility, pregnancy care and morning sickness, hormone balancing, menopause support, hot flashes, eliminating painful periods and much more.
Respiratory Problems
Acupuncture is a very effective treatment for respiratory disorders, from allergies and asthma, to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It views the degeneration of pulmonary function as a systemic issue. This means that not only the functioning of the respiratory system must be addressed, but the vital function of the whole body must be addressed as well. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine are most helpful with: common cold and flu, cough, allergies, hay-fever, Stomach flu, Sinusitis/Rhinitis, asthma, pneumonia and chronic bronchitis.
Insomnia
Getting enough sleep is really important in maintaining a healthy and productive lifestyle. If you’re not getting enough sleep, or if your sleep is disrupted, you will probably find that it’s having a negative impact on your life. Traditional Chinese Medicine treat insomnia by taking into consideration your overall balance of mind, body, and spirit. The condition may be treated using acupuncture, herbal remedies, diet and lifestyle changes, and relaxation techniques. Treatment will be highly individualized and will depend on the underlying cause of the insomnia.
