What to expect for your first treatment:
Acupuncture treatments are scheduled for 60 minutes-75 minutes based on what your body needs. The acupuncturist will walk you through the diagnosis process. This includes taking the pulse at each wrist, observing the patient’s tongue and bodily appearance, asking a variety of questions, and palpating related areas of the body. Then the acupuncture needles are placed on the patient as they are laying down, using special clean needling techniques. The needles do not hurt. Sometimes you may feel a pinch when the needle punctures the skin, then you will no longer feel it. The patient relaxes for an average of twenty minutes. At the end of the treatment, the needles are gently removed and properly disposed of. If the patient agrees to herbal therapy, a prescription is made for the patient. If the patient is interested in injection therapy (Colorado only), the treatment is usually applied at this time, and takes about 5-10 minutes.
