About Electro Acupuncture
Electro acupuncture builds on standard acupuncture. After the needles are placed, small clips connect selected pairs to a device that sends a mild, adjustable electrical pulse.
A session costs AED 450. Packages of 5 sessions (AED 2,100) and 10 sessions (AED 3,800) may be used across branches; please confirm before purchase.
What the treatment involves
Needles are placed as in a standard acupuncture session. Your therapist then attaches the device and slowly increases the pulse until you feel a gentle tapping or tingling.
It should never feel painful, and the level can be lowered at any time.

People often book this treatment for:
