FAQs
Q: What should I expect during my first acupuncture visit?
A: Your first visit begins with an in-depth consultation reviewing your health history, current concerns, and wellness goals. This is followed by a customized acupuncture treatment tailored specifically to your needs.
Q: Does acupuncture hurt?
A: Acupuncture needles are extremely fine and hair-thin—nothing like the hypodermic needles used for blood draws. Most people feel little to no discomfort, often experiencing a heavy, warm, or tingling sensation, followed by deep relaxation.
Q: What additional therapies might be included in my session?
A: Depending on your customized treatment plan, your session may incorporate cupping, infrared therapy, or electrical stimulation to enhance healing and relieve tension.
Q: What should I wear to my appointment?
A: Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to your arms and legs. If needed, you are welcome to bring a change of clothes, and fresh sheets are provided.
Q: How should I prepare on the day of my appointment?
A: Avoid consuming caffeine for about 2 hours prior to your session, and try not to schedule your appointment immediately following intense workouts or high-stress meetings.
Q: Can I receive other wellness treatments on the same day?
A: Yes, other wellness modalities are perfectly fine to enjoy on the same day. However, if you tend to feel relaxed or tired afterward, try to build in some buffer time to rest.
Q: Can I submit my labs, imaging, or insurance information?
A: Yes, you can upload lab documents, imaging, and insurance details directly through your intake form and portal before your visit.
