What to Expect

Please expect your first visit with us to be 1.5- 2 hours long.

During this first visit we will take a full health history. You will be asked about your current and past health conditions, dietary habits, lifestyle, digestion, sleep habits, stress level, work situation and state of your relationships as well as any other pertinant questions. These questions help us to get a fuller picture of you and your unique life situation. We will also be able to determine at this point how we might best support you. During this time we welcome your questions and will do our best to provide clear and understandable answers.

The health history is followed by a 30-50 minute session which may include any of the following modalities: acupuncture, gentle bodywork, cupping, moxa, relaxation coaching, visualization, breath awareness or mindfulness based counseling. This session is designed to be very relaxing and nurturing.

After the session on the table we will discuss your recommeded course of treatment, as well as any lifestyle changes, dietary recommendations, and possibly recommend herbs or supplements.

After the first visit, all subsequent treatments last 1- hour and include a shorter check-in of your progress followed by a relaxing 30-40 minute session on the table.

If you have more questions about what to expect from a session, please call: 415-256-9904
