What To Expect
What’s acupuncture really like? To begin, I talk to my patients one-on-one to get to know them, their medical issues, and how they respond to the various things that affect them in their daily lives. All of these things matter to me and inform my acupuncture treatments as a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and sometimes these conversations can last a while! Each person is a unique constellation of their environments, symptoms, and personal characteristics!
After we talk, we get down to treatment. I recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing and having had something to eat before treatment. During the treatment I utilize stainless steel, pre-sterilized needles on specific areas and points of the body that remain in for approximately 30 minutes, during which time the patient is free to rest, meditate, practice breathing exercises, etc. Some folks even fall asleep on the table!
After that, the needles come out, and we will talk about a treatment plan that works for you and will give you the best results possible. You may not feel 100% different after your first treatment, but I will follow up with you afterward and reassess what’s working for you after each treatment and follow-up.
