Your starting plan
8–12 visits • 1–2 visits/week if appropriate. This is a preliminary care plan, not an average time to heal or a guaranteed result.
What to expect
Pain or tingling may lessen, but nerve symptoms can persist or improve slowly.
After treatment
Use fall precautions, appropriate footwear and skin checks; tell oncology about changes.
How we track progress
Pain or numbness, hand function, walking and balance.
After 2–4 treatments
We will review your response and daily function, then refine your timeline, visit frequency and next steps.
When to seek medical care
Rapidly worsening weakness, falls or loss of mobility require prompt oncology review.
Acupuncture is supportive care. It does not replace medical diagnosis, necessary treatment or emergency services.
