How many acupuncture sessions does it take to see results?

Introduction:

It all depends if your condition is recent or it has a long history. A tension headache, for example, can be treated with one treatment however a chronic headache might take some time to see some positive results. In all cases, we have to identify the cause of the headache to correctly treat it. Is it caused by food allergies, seasonal allergies, chemical unbalance, work, maybe stress?

We always hope for a fast recovery. Recovery time is determined by a few factors.
