Initial Treatments and Consultation

Your initial consultation will include the completion of a lengthy health history followed by a review of the information provided on the health history form. Your pulse and tongue will be evaluated so we can arrive at a TCM diagnosis. Then an appropriate acupuncture point prescription will be created and administered.

Should you be fearful of needles or have a known metal allergy please make that known to me.

Maintenance

Each acupuncture treatment builds on the one before it. Acupuncture is cumulative, with the best results acquired by allowing your body the necessary time needed to heal. For example, those in acute pain need several treatments in a shorter period of time to alleviate symptoms, while chronic conditions require maintenance treatments over several months.

Additional maintenance acupuncture treatments are recommended to ensure the ongoing good health of our clients.
