Acupuncture treatment info

  • Do not come to the appointment overly hungry or thirsty
  • Wear or bring loose fitting, comfortable clothing
  • If possible, avoid caffeine two hours before treatment
  • Remember to urinate just before your treatment
  • As a consideration to others, turn your phone off before entering our office
  • This is a fragrance free office; please do not wear perfumes or scented lotions

When a chair opens up and the acupuncturist has a chance to shake out the sheet and straighten it up, you will proceed to the open chair, take off your shoes after sitting down (never walk around the clinic barefoot) and pull up your pants to the knees and shirt sleeves to the elbows. Recline your chair back and your acupuncturist will be with you. Your acupuncturist will ask you how you are, and you can very briefly describe improvements or setbacks that you may be having; point to any area of pain, and offer your wrists for a pulse diagnosis. At this point you will close your eyes, and relax for your treatment.

 

your responsibility

you must come to community acupuncture often enough to have a good outcome. Acupuncture is not a one treatment fix. In Asia, patients often have 5-10 treatments in a two week span.

We make acupuncture affordable and make it possible for you to receive acupuncture regularly enough and long enough to get better and stay better. We want our community to be welcoming to all different kinds of people. We want to give you the tools to take care of your own health so that you will not need to rely solely, or heavily, on the insurance and pharmaceutical corporations and industries for costly and high-tech interventions. We will provide a safe environment with skilled practitioners.
