First Time? Start Here.
Four simple steps and you’re on the table.
STEP 1: CHECK YOUR COVERAGE
Many plans cover acupuncture. Send me your insurance info and I’ll check your benefits before your first visit, so there are no surprises.
STEP 2: BOOK
Choose Initial Visit (90 minutes) and pick a time that works. Booking runs through Noterro, my scheduling software, so you’ll create a Noterro account the first time you book.
STEP 3: FILL OUT YOUR INTAKE
You’ll get an intake form by email after you book. It covers your health history, what’s bringing you in, and your insurance info. Take your time with it. The more I know, the better I can help.
STEP 4: SHOW UP
Arrive about 10 minutes early. Eat a light meal an hour or two before. Don’t come in starving or stuffed. Wear loose clothes you can roll up past the knees and elbows.
WHAT HAPPENS IN THE ROOM
We talk. Your history, your sleep, your stress, and what’s bringing you in.
I take a look. Posture, movement, pulse, tongue. Yes, tongue. It’s a thing.
We treat. Fine, single-use, sterile needles. Most people feel very little. Many fall asleep.
You rest. Needles in, phone away, nothing to do. Enjoy it.
We make a plan. What I noticed, what to expect, and when to come back.
AFTERWARD
Go easy for the rest of the day. Drink water. Skip the hard workout and the extra drinks. Let the treatment settle in.
