What to Expect From Your First Acupuncture Visit

Those who have never undergone an acupuncture session might be curious about how the process works. Community Chiropractic & Acupuncture of Park Slope enjoys providing educational materials and articles to our patients in addition to our chiropractic and acupuncture services. Below, we go over in a little more detail the acupuncture first visit.

We’ll Go Over Your Health Record

We’ll consult with you first and figure out if anything has been bothering you. We’ll give you a targeted acupuncture treatment program that suits your individual needs. We’ll also ask you if you’re taking any medication or supplements just to ensure acupuncture is right for you.

Your First Experience with Acupuncture Needles

If you and your physician agree, we’ll insert acupuncture needles to pain sites and sites of tension right away.  We insert extremely thin, sterile, disposable needles. Some patients are more sensitive to it than others, however most patients feel little-to-no sensation/discomfort. The treatment lasts about half an hour.
