PRIVATE SESSION
Private sessions offer the maximum amount of privacy and flexibility for a treatment. You'll be in a comfortable, private room with heated tables and infrared heat lamps available. Acupuncture may include both prone (face down) and supine (face up) treatments, as indicated for your treatment plan. Your treatment may also include moxa, gua sha, or body work. Custom herbal prescriptions are included in private sessions (herbs are purchased separately). All electro-stimulation treatments are provided in a private setting. SEMI-PRIVATE SESSION Semi-private sessions offer treatment in a cozy semi-private setting. Treatment tables are heated with table warmers and separated by curtains. You may hear the sounds of practitioners working with other patients nearby – which many people find soothing. Treatments include acupuncture on one side of the body (depending on diagnosis) and may include some physical touch, moxa or cupping. Semi-private appointments do NOT include Chinese herbal formula prescriptions. DAY-OF EMBRYO TRANSFER SESSIONS Practitioner will provide on-site acupuncture to IVF patients on embryo transfer day.

Please plan to refrain from eating anything that may change the natural color of the tongue before your appointment. Examples include coffee, green smoothies, popsicles, hard candy, gum, or foods that contain food dye. Follow up appointments last 30 minutes. |
