​Acupuncture FAQs – Flux Wellness Yandina & Yeronga

Welcome to Flux Wellness, offering acupuncture in both Yandina (Sunshine Coast) and Yeronga (Brisbane).
We promote acupuncture for stress relief, anxiety, women’s health, perimenopause, digestive issues and pain management, combining gentle techniques with mindfulness and relaxation.

❓ Where are your acupuncture clinics located?
Flux Wellness has two peaceful clinic locations:

• Yandina (Sunshine Coast) – inside Luna Wellness Collective, at 4a Stevens Street, Yandina QLD 4560
• Yeronga (Brisbane) – inside Indigo Soul Wellness, at 46 Shottery Street, Yeronga QLD 4104

Appointments are available Mondays and Fridays in Yandina, and Thursdays in Yeronga.
Both clinics offer a calm, nurturing environment designed to support relaxation and healing.

❓ What conditions can acupuncture help with?
At Flux Wellness, acupuncture can help with a wide range of physical and emotional concerns, including:

• Stress and anxiety
• Perimenopause and women’s health issues
• Hormonal imbalance and menstrual irregularities
• Chronic and acute pain (neck, back, shoulders, etc.)
• Fatigue, insomnia, headaches, and digestive issues

Whether you visit our Yandina acupuncture clinic or Yeronga location, each treatment is personalised to help restore balance and wellbeing.

❓ How does acupuncture work?
Acupuncture stimulates specific points on the body to restore the smooth flow of Qi (vital energy), supporting both physical and emotional health.
From a modern perspective, it works with the nervous system to ease stress, release muscle tension, reduce inflammation, and promote hormone balance.

❓ What can I expect during an acupuncture session?
Your first session at Flux Wellness Yandina or Yeronga begins with a detailed consultation to understand your health history and goals.
Fine, sterile needles are inserted gently while you rest — many clients experience deep relaxation or even fall asleep.
Auxiliary techniques such as Chinese Herbal Medicine, Moxibustion, Cupping, Gua Sha, or linament, may also be used.
Erin may also integrate mindfulness, guided relaxation, and breathwork to enhance relaxation.
Informed consent is obtained prior to any treatments.

❓ Is acupuncture safe?
Yes, acupuncture is generally a safe and effective therapy when performed by a qualified practitioner.
Erin Horne is a Registered Acupuncturist (AHPRA) (AACMA) with a Bachelor of Health Science (Acupuncture).
As with any medical procedure there are risks involved which can include:

• Light bleeding, bruising, or mild tenderness where the needles were inserted
  
• Temporary fatigue or light-headedness after a session
  
• A brief increase in symptoms before improvement — sometimes called a healing response
  

Serious risks, such as infection or injury to internal organs, are extremely rare and usually associated with unqualified or improperly trained practitioners. All our treatments are carried out with care, precision, and adherence to the highest standards of safety and hygiene to ensure your wellbeing and comfort. Any specific concerns can be discussed with Erin prior to treatment.

❓ How many acupuncture sessions will I need?
This depends on your individual condition:

• Acute issues (like muscle tension or injury) may improve within a few sessions.
• Chronic conditions (such as perimenopause, anxiety, or hormonal imbalance) usually benefit from weekly treatments for 8 - 12 weeks followed by monthly maintenance visits.

You’ll discuss a tailored plan during your initial consultation at either Yandina or Yeronga.

❓ Does acupuncture help with stress and anxiety?
Many clients visit Flux Wellness for acupuncture for stress, anxiety, and nervous system regulation.
Treatments promote deep relaxation, help improve sleep, and help you feel more centred and calm — especially valuable for busy lifestyles in both Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast.

❓ Can acupuncture help with perimenopause and women’s health?
Acupuncture is an effective way to support hormonal balance, menstrual cycles, and perimenopause symptoms such as hot flushes, mood swings, and insomnia.
Flux Wellness focuses on acupuncture for women’s health at both Yandina and Yeronga clinics.

Yes, most major health funds provide rebates for acupuncture.
