Coming properly dressed and prepared for your treatment will enhance your experience.

​

Electronics: It is important for all patients to have an environment where they can relax. Please turn off your cell-phones during your appointment. 

Dress:  So that the practitioner can access the acupuncture points needed in your treatment you will need to wear loose fitting clothes (shirts that can be rolled up to the elbow and pants that can be rolled up just above the knee). You will be asked to remove your shoes and socks and will be seated in a recliner. Once the practitioner has applied the acupuncture you will need remain in your seat for at least 30 minutes to gain the full benefit for your particular treatment.  

​

Nutrition: As much as is reasonably possible you need to have eaten regular meals and be properly hydrated before your appointment.

​

Water: Acupuncture, like all forms of energy work, require an increase of hydration to help stabilize and improve the circulation of electrolytes in the body. Make sure you use the restroom before your appointment. Appointments will last approximately one hour. Acupuncture speeds the metabolism so many people need to use the restroom directly following an appointment.
