What to Expect
Before your visit
Please wear comfortable and loose fitting clothing that can easily pushed above your elbows and knees and refrain from wearing perfume or other scented products as some people are allergic. You will feel better and the treatment is more effective if you eat something within four hours of your scheduled appointment.
On your first Visit
Please arrive 20-30 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment to check in and fill out paperwork. To expedite your treatment, you can download and complete the questionnaire and consent forms prior to your visit and bring them with you. Download forms below.

New Patient Forms
Your practitioner will join you for a private consultation to go over the papers with you and ask you some detailed questions concerning your complaints and health. We will examine your tongue and analyze your pulse which are Chinese medicine diagnostic tools. Afterwards, you will move into the community space where you chose a chair and get comfortable. We treat in LazyBoy recliners which we find to be much more comfortable than exam tables. Once the needles are inserted, you just relax and let the acupuncture do its work. A typical treatment lasts about 20 minutes to an hour.
Cancellation Policy
In respect for our intention to offer affordable health care, we ask for a 24-hour advance notice to cancel or reschedule appointments, otherwise you will be charged a $20 fee. This includes missed appointments without notice.
