Questions
What conditions can acupuncture treat?
Acupuncture helps with pain management, stress relief, arthritis, sleep disorders, sciatica, and various chronic conditions. We also offer specialized care for pregnancy-related concerns.
How often should I receive treatments?
Most patients start with twice-weekly sessions for 2-3 weeks, then adjust frequency based on progress. Severe cases may require more frequent initial visits.
Is acupuncture painful?
Most patients feel minimal discomfort - similar to a mosquito bite. The ultra-fine needles create a relaxing experience with minimal sensation during insertion.
Do you accept walk-ins?
Appointments are preferred, but we accommodate walk-ins when space allows. Same-day scheduling is available through our online system or by phone.
How does the sliding scale pricing work?
You choose your payment within the $20-$50 range based on comfort level. No income verification required - we trust patients to select appropriate pricing.
What should I wear to appointments?
Comfortable clothing that allows easy access to arms and legs is recommended. Most treatments don't require changing since points are accessed from knees and elbows down.
