What to Expect From Your Acupuncture Appointment
Each session begins with a detailed intake, including questions about your symptoms, pulse and tongue analysis, and an overview of your health goals. Your Acupuncturist will then insert fine needles at specific meridian points to support your body’s energy flow.
Most clients find the process deeply relaxing. The number of sessions depends on your individual response and the nature of your concerns.
In Our Experience
In the Experience of Our Practitioners
We work with patients looking for an approach that considers the whole person. Acupuncture may support both physical and emotional health by encouraging the body to return to balance.
“Acupuncture isn’t just about the needles – it’s about reading the whole pattern. It’s common for clients to feel more grounded, calm and energised after a session.”
— Brisbane Livewell Clinic Acupuncturist
In the Experience of Our Patients
Patients often tell us they feel better after their sessions in ways they didn’t expect — from improved sleep and reduced stress, to better cycle regularity and energy.
“Acupuncture has supported more than just my back. I’m sleeping better, I’m calmer, and my periods are more regular. I just feel stronger in myself.”
— Danielle, Wavell Heights – Patient

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What does an Acupuncturist in Brisbane do?
An Acupuncturist in Brisbane uses Traditional Chinese Medicine to insert fine needles into specific points on the body. This process may support the flow of energy (Qi) and help rebalance the body’s internal systems.
2. What symptoms or issues can Acupuncture support?
Acupuncture may support a wide range of concerns including general fatigue, stress, hormonal changes, digestion, sleep difficulties, and discomfort related to muscles or joints.
3. Where are your Acupuncture clinics located in Brisbane?
Brisbane Livewell Clinic offers Acupuncture at two clinic locations — one in Cannon Hill and another in Wavell Heights. Both clinics are convenient to nearby Brisbane suburbs and offer weekday and Saturday appointments.
4. What does Acupuncture feel like during a session?
Acupuncture during a session typically causes minimal discomfort. Most people describe a light tingling or dull sensation, and many report feeling deeply relaxed both during and after the session.
5. How many Acupuncture sessions are usually needed?
The number of Acupuncture sessions depends on your personal health situation. Some people benefit from one to three sessions, while others may attend weekly for ongoing support.
6. Can Acupuncture support fertility or menstrual cycle regulation?
Acupuncture may support hormonal balance and reproductive health by encouraging circulation, reducing stress, and supporting cycle regularity. Many people use Acupuncture as part of their fertility preparation or IVF journey.
7. Is Acupuncture a safe service when provided by a qualified practitioner?
Acupuncture is considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced practitioner. Our Acupuncturists follow strict hygiene protocols and use sterile, single-use needles for every session.
8. Do I need a referral to book an Acupuncture session at Brisbane Livewell Clinic?
A referral is not required to book an Acupuncture session. You can make an appointment directly online or by phone, regardless of whether you are new to the Clinic or continuing care.
9. Can Acupuncture be provided through videoconference?
Acupuncture itself must be provided in person. However, Traditional Chinese Medicine consultations, herbal support, and lifestyle recommendations may be available via videoconference.
10. What should I wear to an Acupuncture appointment?
Attending an Acupuncture appointment is more comfortable when you wear loose-fitting clothing. Most points used are on the arms, legs, and back, so clothing that can be easily adjusted is ideal.
11. What should I expect to feel after an Acupuncture session?
After an Acupuncture session, most people feel calm, grounded or energised. Some notice improved sleep, emotional balance, or symptom relief over the following days.
12. Can I claim Acupuncture on my private health fund?
Acupuncture may be claimable through your private health insurer depending on your level of cover. We recommend checking with your fund directly to confirm eligibility.
13. Can Acupuncture be used with other wellness services at your clinic?
Acupuncture can be combined with other wellness services offered at Brisbane Livewell Clinic, including Naturopathy, Nutrition, and Massage, for a more integrated approach to your health.
