During the first appointment, the acupuncturist will talk to you about your condition. Then the provider will examine your body for areas that will react to acupuncture. Depending on the treatment needed the Acupuncturist may decide to proceed with Acupuncture or Cupping or Gua Sha. Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese method used to relieve some health conditions and symptoms, such as pain. The needles rebalance the body’s energy, or qi, and prompt the body to release natural chemicals to fight the illness or symptom.
If Acupuncture is administered the needles are sterile, disposable and as thin as a human hair. An acupuncturist inserts needles at various depths, from a fraction of an inch to a couple of inches. The needles stay in for a few minutes or as long as 20 minutes.

En quoi ça consiste
Most of this first acupuncture visit is spent piecing together the pattern behind what’s been going on — questions about your symptoms, sleep, digestion and stress, plus feeling pulses or looking at your tongue — then the needles themselves and a clear sense of the treatment approach.
