Does My Insurance Plan Cover This?
We do not bill insurance. Most co-pays fall with-in the range of our sliding scale of $25-40. Receipts are available on the payment station which you then submit to your company, and some people have been able to get reimbursed this way.
New to the Clinic?
- You should receive a online information form to complete before your appointment. If you are unable to fill it out or don’t receive it you please arrive 5 (FIVE) to 10 (TEN) minutes early.
How Long Is An Appointment?
Treatment time is 45 minutes but the length of your treatment can be shorter if you have time constraints. Allow extra time for your first appointment. Please communicate your needs with your acupuncturist. After treatment most people feel refreshed and energized. Other people don’t feel anything right away. There is no right or wrong experience with your own healing.
How Does It Work?
The easiest way to explain it is that acupuncture points stimulate your nervous system to tell your brain to heal certain areas. MRIs have shown that certain acupuncture points stimulate very specific areas of the brain. We gently place very thin needles in specific places that allow the body to relax and self regulate. Acupuncture activates the body’s natural healing mechanisms and triggers the same responses that would be activated after any illness or injury.
Does acupuncture hurt?
Acupuncture needles are extremely thin, like a cat’s whisker, and the treatment is usually painless. Dull, achy, or tingling sensations are normal. If you are feeling uncomfortable though, please let your acupuncturist know, we want you to be as comfortable and relaxed as possible.
