Your starting plan
6–12 visits • 1–2 visits/week. This is a preliminary care plan, not an average time to heal or a guaranteed result.
What to expect
Possible goals: less leg pain and better walking or sitting tolerance. Nerve symptoms may improve slowly.
After treatment
Use comfortable movement and pacing. Follow physician or PT advice.
How we track progress
Leg pain, numbness and walking or sitting tolerance.
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
Progressive leg weakness, saddle anesthesia or bladder/bowel changes require emergency assessment.
Acupuncture is supportive care. It does not replace medical diagnosis, necessary treatment or emergency services.
