What to Expect During Your Initial Acupuncture Consultation
Your initial consultation is a comprehensive session where I take the time to understand your health concerns, medical history, and overall wellbeing. This allows me to develop a treatment plan tailored specifically to your individual needs.
During the appointment, we will discuss your main reason for seeking treatment, as well as areas such as sleep, digestion, energy levels, stress, emotional wellbeing, lifestyle, and any medications or supplements you may be taking. I may also assess your pulse and tongue using Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnostic methods to gain a deeper understanding of your health.
Following the consultation, you will receive a personalised acupuncture treatment designed to support your body's natural healing processes and address both the symptoms you are experiencing and their underlying causes.
Where appropriate, your session may also include additional therapies such as cupping, gua sha, moxibustion, lifestyle recommendations, dietary guidance, or discussion of Chinese herbal medicine.
This appointment provides the foundation for our work together, creating a treatment plan that supports your health goals and empowers you on your healing journey.
