what to expect at first treatment

Treatments begin with an intake that throughly goes through your health history and current symptoms. Your practitioner will then feel your pulses and look at your tongue. A treatment plan will be designed and appropriate acupuncture points will be chosen. Common acupoints are generally located below the elbows or knees or on the back. You will relax on a massage table while needles are inserted and retained. Your practitioner will walk you through the entire treatment. The total appointment time is about one hour.
