Acupuncture in Calgary
Dr. Shannon Ferguson, our licensed naturopathic doctor, combines acupuncture with a medical background to provide a comprehensive approach to your health. Your initial consultation will include assessing your overall health, lifestyle, and nutrition factors to maximize your progress and recovery.
What to Expect During Your Session
We will assess your issue during your session, potentially including a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) diagnosis. The needles will be inserted, and you can relax alone with calming music or have the practitioner stay with you. Acupuncture is generally not painful, although some people might experience brief, sharp sensations as the needles are inserted.
Sessions typically last 45-60 minutes. The number of sessions required varies based on the individual and their specific concerns. Sports medicine issues may respond well to just one application, while systemic and hormonal concerns might require 6-12 sessions.
Insurance Coverage for Your Care
Sessions are typically covered under the benefits of naturopathic medicine. For specific coverage details, we recommend contacting your insurance provider.
