Treatment-Specific Information
Neuro/Scalp Acupuncture
NeuroAlign provides scalp acupuncture treatment using evidence-informed, brain-centred approaches grounded in contemporary neuroscience. Unlike traditional acupuncture, NeuroAlign treatment focuses on modulating brain activity to address various clinical presentations.
How NeuroAlign Scalp Acupuncture Works:
When fine needles are inserted at specific scalp locations, we aim to stimulate the trigeminal nerve, which has direct anatomical connections to the brain and meninges (the membranes surrounding the brain). This helps create direct neural pathways that allow modulation of brain activity. Scalp acupuncture aims to activate the brain's natural regulatory systems and enhance cerebral blood flow. These mechanisms may produce measurable effects, often within approximately 10 minutes of treatment, though individual responses vary.
NeuroAlign Methods:
NeuroAlign uses three distinct scalp and auricular acupuncture methods tailored to different clinical presentations:
NeuroRelief Method: Specialises in pain management and relief, addressing chronic pain conditions and related dysfunction.
NeuroBalance Method: An auricular (ear) acupuncture method focused on mental health, emotional wellbeing, and supporting recovery from addiction.
NeuroRehab Method: Targets neurological rehabilitation and functional recovery following neurological conditions or injury.
Treatment Approach:
Scalp acupuncture forms the core of NeuroAlign treatment. Distal acupuncture (needles placed at points on the body) and auricular acupuncture (needles or semi-permanent needles placed around the ear) may be used as adjunct measures to support the primary scalp treatment, though these are not the primary focus of our approach.
Needle Types and Aftercare:
We use both ultra-thin acupuncture needles (0.10-0.20mm thick) and ASP® semi-permanent needles, which are typically inserted around the ear. Semi-permanent needles typically fall out within 5–7 days. You will be provided with detailed aftercare information during your appointment.
Treatment Considerations:
Scalp acupuncture is generally well tolerated. Some mild discomfort may occur during needle insertion. In some cases, mild swelling, bruising, or temporary discomfort may occur. If you experience swelling, signs of infection, or other concerns following treatment, please contact us or seek medical attention promptly.
Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to support cellular function and may help reduce inflammation and support tissue healing. This therapy is generally well tolerated. If you have photosensitivity, eye conditions, or take photosensitising medications, please inform us prior to your session.
Exercise Therapy
Exercise therapy involves guided movement and therapeutic exercise tailored to your condition and ability. We will work within your current physical capacity, but you are responsible for communicating any discomfort or limitations during sessions. If you have joint, muscular, or neurological conditions, please inform us beforehand.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping involves applying suction cups to the skin to temporarily stimulate blood flow and relieve muscular tension. Side effects may include bruising, skin irritation, or mild soreness. If you have sensitive skin, circulatory issues, or dermatological conditions, please inform us prior to your session.
Nutritional Coaching
Our nutritional coaching is intended to support general health and wellness. It is not a substitute for medical nutrition therapy or clinical dietary advice. Clients with medically diagnosed dietary needs (e.g., diabetes, allergies) should seek guidance from a licensed dietitian.
Reimbursement of Services
Services provided by NeuroAlign™ are not reimbursed by Dutch health insurers. Some international health plans or employers may offer partial or full reimbursement, typically through wellness or training budgets. If you are self-employed, it’s possible you may be able to deduct the cost of our services as a business expense.
Clients are responsible for covering the full cost of services rendered. Payment is due during your appointment, or when an invoice is provided (whichever happens first).
