Appointments

Your first visit will last about 1.5 hours. The first visit includes an extensive health history consultation, pulse diagnosis, physical exam if required, and your first acupuncture treatment. Subsequent acupuncture treatments last 1 hour including consultation and treatment.

Before your appointment you will receive Personal Assessment Forms and Health History Forms via email. These must be completed before your visit in order to receive treatment on that day. I recommend arriving 10 minutes before your appointment time, this will allow us to optimize our time together.

I kindly ask for 48 hours notice for appointment cancellations.

How to prepare for your session

Wear comfortable and loose fitting clothing to all appointments. It is recommended that you bring a pair of shorts to change into for treatment. Restrictive clothing such as sports bras and skinny/tight jeans are not recommended. Avoid caffeine immediately prior to treatments. A light meal is also recommended a couple of hours prior, as acupuncture on an empty stomach is not optimal for most people.

Booking an Appointment

Please call or email if you would like to schedule and appointment or if you have questions about how Chinese medicine can help you.

Covid 19 Safety Practices for Your Protection and Mine

These policies will be adapted to reflect the prevailing safety protocols to protect the public health in clinical settings as circumstances change.

  1. You will be offered hand sanitizer and the use of the sink for handwashing upon entering the office and after treatment.
  2. When you leave, a sanitizing protocol is performed on all of the touch surfaces within the treatment room.
  3. In addition to the HPPA filter in the building's air conditioning unit, I am running an air purifier in the treatment room continually and opening the windows regularly to refresh the air in the treatment room.
