What can I expect after an acupuncture treatment?

One may experience immediate total or partial release of their symptoms which may last, or the symptoms may eventually return. In a few cases, the pain may seem even worse. This is called the rebound effect. By the next day, the pain can be expected to gradually improve. However, one should see further incremental improvement after each subsequent treatment. In a few cases there may be no immediate relief but pain may eventually diminish over the next couple of days.
