That depends on the duration, severity, and nature of your complaint.  You many need only a single treatment for an acute condition.    A series of 5-10 treatment may resolve many chronic problems.  Some degenerative conditions may require many treatments over time.  To help reduce the number of treatments, your practitioner may suggest dietary modifications, specific exercise regimes, relaxation techniques, self-message, and/or Chinese herbal medicines, all of which may help to increase the efficacy of acupuncture.
