What happens during a treatment?

Your first visit will take about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. First we ask you to fill out a medical history form. Dee Ann will go over this form with you and review your case. Each client's therapy is different because of your specific background. In reviewing your case, she will be able to tell you if acupuncture can help. If you decide to proceed with treatment, Dee Ann will go through various diagnostics to see what your body tells us. Specific points will then be selected for the actual treatment. The treatment takes between 35-55 minutes. During the first visit, Dee Ann will give you an estimate of the number of treatments needed for your condition. As you progress, your case will be evaluated and the number of visits could increase or decrease depending on how your system responds to acupuncture. Follow up visits are 45 to 75 minutes in length.

What type of response can I expect?

Each person responds differently. Your response can be immediate or delayed, dramatic, or slow and subtle. The only way to tell is to watch for differences. With pain conditions. Look for any diminished effect regarding the intensity. With functional disorders, such as constipation or allergies, the desired effect may take more time.
