Questions
What conditions respond best to your acupuncture treatments?
Our treatments effectively address chronic pain, migraines, asthma, stress-related conditions, and musculoskeletal issues. We also treat hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and sleep disturbances using tailored acupuncture protocols.
How many sessions will I need for effective treatment?
Treatment plans vary by condition. Most patients see improvement within 5-8 sessions, with chronic conditions requiring longer programmes. Your practitioner will recommend a personalised treatment schedule during the initial consultation.
Is acupuncture painful or safe?
Acupuncture uses ultra-fine needles with minimal discomfort. It's a safe, non-invasive treatment with no side effects when performed by qualified practitioners using sterile, single-use needles in our clean, regulated clinic environment.
What happens during the first consultation?
The initial session includes medical history review, condition assessment, and treatment suitability evaluation. If acupuncture isn't appropriate, no charge applies. First treatments typically last 60-75 minutes, including comprehensive patient education.
Do you offer payment plans or concessions?
We charge £40 for initial consultations and £35 for follow-ups. While we don't offer formal payment plans, we provide flexible scheduling options and can discuss treatment prioritisation to accommodate budgetary considerations.

My Mum had her first acupuncture treatment with James Hampson in 1988. Asthma was a trouble to her but acupuncture helped considerably. We would certainly recommend James Hampson and acupuncture treatment.
