YOUR CARE EXPLAINED
What Is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture uses very fine needles placed at carefully selected points on the body. The points chosen for you depend on your symptoms, overall health and the goals discussed during your appointment.
At ActiLife, acupuncture in Coquitlam follows a Traditional Chinese Medicine approach, with treatment selected according to your individual assessment rather than a fixed routine.
A Detailed Health Conversation
You have time to explain what you are feeling, when it started and how it affects your movement, sleep, work or daily routine.
Points Selected for You
The acupuncture points used during your appointment are chosen according to your individual assessment and treatment goals.
Care That Can Adapt
Your practitioner reviews how you respond and adjusts future appointments when your symptoms or priorities change.
REASONS TO SEEK CARE
Acupuncture Care for Pain, Tension, Sleep and More
You may be considering acupuncture in Coquitlam because pain is limiting your movement, tension is affecting your sleep or an ongoing concern is interfering with your usual routine.
Your first appointment gives you an opportunity to explain what is happening and find out whether acupuncture is appropriate for your needs.

Tell Us What You Are Experiencing
Share when your symptoms began, what affects them, how they impact daily life and what you hope to improve.

Review Your Health History

03
Receive Your Treatment

BEFORE YOUR VISIT
How to Prepare and What Treatment May Feel Like
Before You Arrive
Eat a light meal or snack before your appointment and avoid arriving extremely hungry. Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows access to areas such as your arms and lower legs. Bring information about your medications, insurance coverage and ICBC claim when applicable.
During Your Treatment
Acupuncture needles are very fine. You may feel a brief pinch when a needle is placed, followed by mild warmth, tingling, heaviness or a dull ache. Tell your practitioner if anything feels uncomfortable so the treatment can be adjusted.
After Your Appointment
You may notice temporary tenderness, minor bruising, tiredness or light-headedness after treatment. Before you leave, your practitioner will explain any aftercare that is relevant to your appointment.

FAQs
Common questions about Acupuncture
Does Acupuncture Hurt?
Not at all. Most patients feel a gentle warmth on the skin — some feel nothing at all. There's no heat damage, no cutting and no needles, so you can go right back to your day afterward.
How many sessions will I need?
There is no standard number suitable for every patient. Recommendations depend on the concern, how long it has been present, your general health and your response to care.
What Should I Wear during Acupuncture?
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows access to relevant treatment areas. Your practitioner can explain what access is required before treatment begins.
Can Acupuncture Be Combined with Physiotherapy?
It may be used alongside physiotherapy when both services are appropriate. The two services are booked separately unless acupuncture is being used directly within a physiotherapy appointment.
