It depends on the severity and chronicity of your condition. Some patients see significant improvement in 1-2 sessions. Chronic issues may require 4-6 sessions combined with corrective exercise.
The most common side effects are mild soreness and occasional bruising at the needle site, similar to post-workout soreness. These typically resolve within 24-48 hours.
