Your first visit to our healing clinic, whether for community acupuncture or a private session, is a longer session that is focused on information gathering as well as your first treatment. 

• Please allow up to 2 hours, depending on the number of symptoms or complaints you have. 

• The treatment room is comfortable with a massage table and calming music.  

• Generally, the needles are left in for about a half an hour. 

• If needed, we have a system in place to contact the treatment provider while you are resting.

• Bring a list of all the medications and supplements (including brands) that you are currently taking with dosage and frequency

• Wear loose comfortable clothing if you can. If you need to remove your clothing, I am respectful of your privacy.

What to AVOID prior to your session: a large meal, caffeine, alcohol, and sugar before treatment for maximum relaxation.  Please be sure to have something in your belly for your comfort.
