What to Expect in an Acupuncture Session
Initial visits begin with a digital intake which offers insight into your particular concerns and background. All sessions begin with a chat about what you would like to focus on (no need to worry if you don’t have anything specific), how you would like to feel, and what you are looking to receive from the session. Next we will move to the treatment where you will lie on an optionally heated massage table. (Cozy drape blankets are offered if clothing needs to be removed)
I may read your pulse, look at your tongue, and ask more questions, to understand your system from a Chinese Medicine diagnostic lens. The treatment may include a personalized blend of acupuncture points, acupressure, tuning forks, gentle body work, gua sha, cupping, moxibustion, aromatherapy acupressure application, flower essences, guided breathing, rest, ear seeds, and/or seasonal guidance.
To close, all points are removed and we will check in with how you are feeling and any noticings you had during the session. I may recommend optional herbs, tea, flower essences, and any other practices I think may be beneficial to you.
