How should I prepare for an appointment? • Come to the clinic with any questions you may have, your acupuncturist is there to help you. • Wear loose and comfortable clothing for easy access to acupuncture points. • Don't eat large meals just before or after your visit. • Refrain from overexertion, drugs, or alcohol for up to 6 hours after your visit. • After your treatment, avoid stressful situations. Make time to relax. A warm bath or shower is helpful. Also, be sure to get plenty of rest and drink plenty of water.
How long will be my session? Please plan for 1 to 1 1/2 hours for the initial visit and 45 minutes to 1 hour for each visit thereafter.
What should I do before and after the session? For best results, avoid coffee, soda or sweets before visit, finish meals half an hour before session and wear loose clothes. After acupuncture, avoid aggressive physical activity, drink 2-3 cups warm water, have Epsom salt foot bath and take light meal like soup or cooked food.
Fees: Most insurance companies provide acupuncture benefits. In that case, you will only be responsible to cover the office visit co-pay. However, if you happen to be one of the people with an insurance plan that does not cover acupuncture, if your condition is not covered for acupuncture benefits, or if you don't have health insurance, I offer a discount for cash (or check) payments made at the time of service.
*Payments must be made by cash or check at the time of service to qualify. 24 Hour Notice is required for all cancellations or rescheduling. A $25 cancellation fee is charged for late cancellations and No-Shows.
