Receiving acupuncture treatment can be a unique and powerful
healing experience. The first appointment is typically a two-hour
consultation. During this visit we will speak at length about your
health concerns and address any questions you may have about
acupuncture and the healing process. We will also discuss your
health and personal history in detail, and perform a gentle,
non-invasive physical examination. The primary objective of the
first appointment is to assess the underlying conditions that have
led to your current concerns. Following the initial consultation,
generally you will be seen in weekly sessions for 6-8 visits.
Typically, subsequent visits will include a short discussion with
your practitioner, followed by the gentle insertion of needles. You
will generally rest after needle insertion. Most people report this
to be a pleasant and relaxing experience. During the early phase of
treatment, significant signs of progress will likely appear. As you
experience improvement in your condition and enjoy a greater sense
of ease in life, treatments may be extended to every other week,
every three weeks, monthly and eventually seasonally. Strict
adherence to confidentiality is maintained at all times. |
