What to Expect

After submitting your patient forms, I will consult with you to learn more about your current problem and overall health. This could include learning more about your diet, daily routine and exercise habits. Please be sure to tell me about any medications you are taking including over-the -counter medication. We’ll then decide on the best course of treatment.

Your first acupuncture session will last around an hour and half and follow-up sessions about an hour. You should wear loose comfortable clothing and have something in your stomach; do not fast or skip a meal prior to your appointment. Acupuncture is a safe, painless and comfortable treatment and sterilized needles packed individually are used (needles are never reused). You will be in a very comfortable position but will have to remain fairly still during your treatment. Your first treatment could include acupuncture and the application of moxa (moxibustion). Moxibustion is the application of heat to a specific area or point on the body. Along with acupuncture needles, moxibustion has become an integral part of the Oriental system of medicine.

At Florida Keys Acupuncture we practice traditional Chinese medicine. You can learn more about acupuncture here.
