What should I expect at my first appointment?

Your first appointment will be around 1 to 1.5 hrs and will consist of detailed consulation with the doctor followed by an acupuncture treatment session.

Upon checkin, the front desk staff will provide you with the required forms to be complete. Your profile information along with your profile photo would be entered into our confidential HIPAA compliant medical system along with your payment details.

A medical assistant staff would then take your vitals and record into our HIPAA compliant medical system for review by the doctor.

Once the appointment begins you will be taken to our consultation room with the doctor to discuss your health concern. The consultation with the doctor can range from 30 to 45 minutes. At the end of the consultation the doctor will explain the required list of treatments for your conditions and the number of sessions needed for each treatment.

Your treatment sessions may be scheduled the same day or on another day based on the availability.

How long is an appointment?

Your first appointment will be around 1 to 1.5 hrs and will consist of detailed consultation with the doctor. The treatments sessions would be around 30 minutes to 1 hour.

What should I wear to my appointment?

You can wear any dress which has easy access up to the elbows and knees. Do not wear any tight fit dresses which can impair circulation.

If you feel cold during the session we will be glad to cover you with a blanket to keep you warm during the acupuncture session.

Please avoid wearing colognes, perfumes or other fragrances. We have many patients who are sensitive or allergic to these scents.

Should I eat before an appointment?

It is highly recommended to have some food before your acupuncture session and not come in hungry or during fasting. This will prevent you from getting dizzy or light-headed.

When will I notice an improvement in my condition?
