Please read below important information about our fees and office policies:

Fees

Each clinic visit is $80 and lasts 60-75 minutes. Your first visit includes a more detailed intake and consultation at no additional charge (please see New Patient Visit below). In subsequent visits, we typically allot 10-15mins for intake and 50-60mins for treatment. Acupuncture and Bodywork are frequently combined to enhance results. Additional techniques such as Cupping, Heat Therapy, Nutritional Counseling, and Therapeutic Exercises may be incorporated. Herbal Medicine is prescribed as needed. The cost for herbs is not included in the treatment price and may range from $5 to $30 depending on the condition and patient needs.
Treatments can now be purchased online!    
(Please fill in the payment amount as appropriate.
E.g. $80 for one treatment, $160 for two treatments, etc.)


New Patient Visit

Your first visit will include a complete health history and review of your present condition. We may discuss your diet, lifestyle, stress, exercise, sleep, etc... Physical examination is conducted, your pulse taken and your tongue examined according to the Chinese Medicine diagnostic system. Then we will determine a treatment strategy that best suits your individual needs and condition. Once a thorough intake has been completed, diagnosis and treatment plan determined, the remaining time will be devoted to treatment. Recommendations on diet, lifestyle, or therapeutic exercises may also be given. In subsequent visits, less time will be needed for intake and consultation, allowing more focus on the treatment itself.

To save time on your first visit, please download the New Patient Form, fill out at home, and bring to your first appointment. Also, please bring with you any relevant medical test results, such as lab tests, MRI reports, etc...
