FIRST VISIT

HOW TO PREPARE?

1. Eat a warm snack or light meal before your first visit. It'll help with the effectiveness of the treatment. 

2. Wear comfortable loose clothing

3. Bring the necessary paperwork

WHAT TO EXPECT?

Share your health concerns and expect question asking, pulse reading and even some tongue observation. Expect the therapeutic session to be calm and relaxing.

WHAT INSURANCES DO YOU ACCEPT?

Contact your insurance company and ask if you have coverage.  Some healthcare plans will only cover acupuncture when performed by a medical doctor.  Inform your insurance company that you will be receiving treatments from a state medical board licensed acupuncturist. Also inquire if you need a doctor's referral and what diagnosis your insurance plan will cover. 

Our office with fill out the necessary insurance forms in order for you to receive reimbursement from your insurance company.  It is the patient's responsibility to send the forms to your insurance company for reimbursement.  We do not bill insurance companies directly.  

​

Medicare and Medicaid do not cover acupuncture. Medicare patients can check with their secondary healthcare plan regarding coverage.
