A straightforward guide to your first visit.
Plan time to discuss what brings you in, relevant health history and the goals you want to work toward.
Your practitioner may ask detailed questions and use observations consistent with an acupuncture intake.
Very fine sterile needles are placed at selected points. The number and location vary by visit and individual.
Many acupuncture sessions include quiet time while the needles remain in place.
Before leaving, discuss what to notice after treatment and whether another visit makes sense.
