What to know before your first treatment.
Prior to your treatment, you will receive a digital intake form to complete online. We review it thoroughly ahead of time, so we arrive prepared with a clear understanding of your needs and a plan in mind. When you come in, we’ll go over your intake together, answer any questions, review your treatment plan, and get right to your care. Your treatment is typically 60 minutes.
Most people feel some relief after just one treatment. To maintain progress and reduce flare-ups, many patients decide to come in monthly or as needed.
For a flare-up, a consultation is typically needed, but symptoms often subside within 3–6 treatments.
During treatment: most people begin to feel relaxed within 15 minutes. You may feel some pressure from the needling, but it should never be painful. Small twitch responses are normal as the body begins to relax. Some people also experience an emotional release.
After treatment: you may feel sore, similar to after a workout, with improvement as the days progress. The body does the most healing in the first 48 hours, so we recommend not overexerting yourself the day of treatment. Get a good night’s sleep, drink water, and eat a healthy meal after treatment.
It is recommended to have something light to eat an hour before acupuncture.
It is also recommended to wait to do acupuncture if you have the following:
All cautions, such as age, cancer, pregnancy, chronic diseases, blood thinners, surgeries and medications, are considered, and the treatment is adjusted accordingly.
