Does acupuncture hurt? Barely, is the honest answer.

Acupuncture is one of the oldest and most studied therapies in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Very fine, sterile, single-use needles go in at specific points on the body to help your system settle, recover, and self-regulate.

Your visit opens with a short consultation about your history and goals. Needles are placed gently; most people feel only a small pinch, then deep relaxation. You rest for around 20–30 minutes before the needles are removed.

Everything we do, on one list.

Medical consultation. Vaccinations. Acupuncture. Electroacupuncture. Cupping (ventosa). Moxibustion. Gua sha. Massage therapy. Ask about online consultation when you book.

Do you have to see the doctor first? Not necessarily. You can book acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, or massage directly. For new or ongoing health concerns, doing a medical consultation first helps make sure your care plan fits the whole picture.

Yes, ventosa leaves marks. They fade.

Cupping, otherwise known as ventosa, uses round cups to create gentle suction on the skin, drawing up the tissue beneath and creating local congestion. This relieves tension and enhances blood circulation. You feel a firm but comfortable pulling sensation.

About those marks: they're round, and they range from light pink to a deeper reddish-purple. They are generally not painful and typically fade within 3 to 7 days.

Afterwards, keep the area covered, drink plenty of water, and rest.

Mugwort, warmth, and nothing touching your skin.

Moxibustion warms specific points using gentle heat from burning mugwort (moxa) held near, not touching, the skin. The warmth is pleasant and penetrating.

Afterwards, mild warmth or light redness at the site is normal and settles quickly. Give the area a few minutes to cool before you cover it up warmly, drink water, and keep it away from cold air, air-conditioning drafts included, for the rest of the day.

This is the wall you see when you walk in.

MeridianHealth Medical Clinic, in Lourdes, Lubao. Under one roof: medical consultation, vaccinations, acupuncture, electroacupuncture, cupping (ventosa), moxibustion, gua sha and massage therapy.

Worth saying plainly: TCM at MeridianHealth is a traditional, complementary approach alongside your medical care.

Open Monday to Saturday, 8:00am to 5:00pm. Walk-ins are welcome - but book ahead and your slot waits for you, not the other way around.

About the redness. It's meant to happen.

Gua sha is an ancient technique that uses a smooth-edged tool to gently scrape lubricated skin along the body to produce a reddish patch of skin. This encourages circulation and releases tightness.

Here's the session: oil goes on, the tool is stroked along the muscles, and you feel firm, soothing pressure. Afterwards, light temporary redness ("sha") is normal and should improve in a couple of days.

Add it to an acupuncture or massage session, or book it on its own with infrared light.
