EXPERIENCE
Experiencing a Treatment
People describe treatments as surprisingly pain-free, deeply relaxing and rejuvenating. Treatments consist primarily of Acupuncture, Asian Body Work, Herbal Guidance, Lifestyle and Nutritional Counsel. You can trust that your comfort and safety is our first concern. Preparing for a Treatment:
Please wear loose, comfortable clothing; such as yoga pants and a t-shirt. Enjoy a light meal or snack, such as a banana, within an hour or two before your treatment and you may want a snack afterwards as well.A typical treatment lasts an hour with a brief interview at the beginning to assess treatment direction. Needle stimulation occurs for 15-30 minutes, but may vary depending on the circumstances. Patients often describe an overall sense of deep relaxation or they may fall asleep. After the treatment, we recommend going home to relax, avoiding any physically demanding activities for the rest of the day.
Course of Treatment:
The treatment course depends on the complexity of the health concern and your core well-being. Patient often experience improvement in 2-10 treatments. Chronic conditions, or those with underlying deep deficiency of health, may require further treatment. Many choose to continue treatment once a month or seasonally to maintain and continuously strive for a high standard of well-beingCreating Health:
Health is an experience we choose to create everyday for ourselves. It's clear that what we choose to engage daily, our habits, will impact us. The more conscious our choices about what we eat, if we exercise, what emotions we typically feel, how we hold our bodies, our levels of stress, the people we choose to interact with - the clearer our understanding of health. The more responsibility we take for our health, including creating a healthy environment for ourselves, body, mind and spirit - the healthier we become.
