Welcome!

Please plan 1 to 1.5 hours for your first visit.  The time will be spent reviewing your medical history, learning about your goals for treatment,  performing an assessment including examination of the tongue, pulse,  abdomen,  and exploring physical, emotional, and lifestyle factors that may be affecting your health.  A diagnosis will be formed from the Chinese medical perspective,  your questions will be answered, and a treatment plan will be formulated.  You can expect treatment with acupuncture, herbs, lifestyle and dietary suggestions or a combination  at the first appointment.

Please be sure to eat prior to your first treatment. A light meal is best. Special clothing is not necessary but you may prefer to wear something that is loose and comfortable.   We recommend abstaining from excessive caffeine, alcohol, perfume or makeup for your first visit to ensure a correct diagnosis.   A link to paperwork will be sent to you via email with your appointment confirmation.   Instead,  you may choose to arrive 15 minutes early to complete the paperwork at the clinic. If you think you have insurance coverage for your visit it is your responsibility  to verify that coverage  directly with your carrier.  You may  review our insurance section here.
You will receive more benefit from your treatment if you are not extremely active after your visit and if you avoid any activities that aggravate your condition.
