Acupuncture Helps!
Whether acupuncture helps is not just about relieving symptoms, says Gertjan. Initially, something needs to 'get moving,' and if all goes well, that should be noticeable. Often, people come back after the first session with a comment like, "Something has been set in motion." Of course, hopefully accompanied by symptom relief, but that's not necessary. I notice that it's important for clients to be involved in their process, and it helps them when they notice that their self-healing ability is at work both during and after the treatment.

Also for Menopausal Symptoms
A few weeks ago, Mieke came to my practice for the first time with menopausal symptoms as her main complaint, such as hot flashes, feeling of heat, restlessness, and sleep problems. After the first two treatments, the symptoms varied, and Mieke mainly felt like a lot was being set in motion. This made her very curious about what was happening in her body and mind, without focusing too much on the immediate desired result. After the third treatment, there was a clear improvement: fewer hot flashes, less feeling of heat, and significantly more peace in body and mind. Of course, it remains to be seen if this will remain stable in the upcoming treatments.

No More Pain After 30 Years
What comes to mind now is the experience with a client who had been in pain for over 30 years. Immediately after the first treatment, she felt relief, and she was completely overwhelmed by it. The most beautiful "side effect" was that she started sleeping better again, whereas before, she would wake up every half hour due to the pain in her body. She now visits my practice regularly. The symptoms are certainly not gone, but they are not as intense as before the treatment, which she is very happy about.
