TCM Acupuncture

Your acupuncture session is designed to be a relaxing and restorative experience tailored to your individual needs.

Initial Consultation
Your first visit will begin with a detailed consultation, where your practitioner will ask about your health history, current concerns, lifestyle, and overall well-being. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, even subtle symptoms provide insight into your body’s internal balance. You may be asked about sleep, digestion, energy levels, stress, and more.

TCM Assessment
To guide diagnosis and treatment, your practitioner may perform a traditional pulse and tongue examination—key diagnostic tools in TCM that help assess the flow of energy (Qi) and identify imbalances.

The Treatment
Once the assessment is complete, you’ll lie comfortably on a treatment table. Your practitioner will insert very fine, sterile needles into specific acupuncture points. Most people feel little to no discomfort—sensations may include a mild tingling, warmth, or heaviness, which is a sign that your body is responding to the treatment.

You’ll rest with the needles in place for about 20–30 minutes in a quiet, calming environment. Many people find the experience deeply relaxing and even fall asleep during treatment.

After the Session
You may feel relaxed, energized, or slightly tired after your treatment—this is completely normal. Your practitioner may offer guidance on lifestyle, diet, or herbal support as part of your personalized care plan.

Acupuncture is a gentle, safe, and holistic therapy that works best when treatments are consistent. Your practitioner will recommend a schedule based on your condition and goals.
