What to Expect During Your Acupuncture Session
Welcome & Intake: When you arrive for your acupuncture session, we’ll take time to understand your health concerns and discuss your treatment goals.
Safe Space: A safe and sacred space is implied during each session. Confidentiality is honored for each patient.
Needle Insertion: Acupuncture requires the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body. These points are like little "energy doors" that help balance your body's flow of energy.
Painless Process: Acupuncture needles are incredibly thin, so most people feel little to no pain during the insertion. You might feel a tiny pinch or a mild sensation as the needles go in. Inform if there are any areas that may be more sensitive than others.
Restoring Energy Flow: Acupuncture helps unblock and balance the flow of energy throughout your body and organ systems. This balance supports your body's natural healing abilities.
Bespoke & Personalized Treatment: Each treatment is tailored to your unique needs. I may use additional techniques like moxibustion to enhance the effects.
Post-Treatment Feeling: After the session, you might feel calm, relaxed, or energized. Some people notice immediate improvements, while others may experience gradual changes over time.
Minor changes, Big shifts: Acupuncture may cause minor shifts in the body that may not feel like anything has changed. Continuous treatments lead to better results & sustainable changes.
Warmly,
Dr. Linh Love
