Embarking on your first acupuncture journey can be both exciting and a bit nerve-wracking. At Acupuncture Sunrise, we strive to make your experience as comfortable and informative as possible. Here’s what you can expect during your first visit.

Upon arrival, you will be greeted by our friendly staff and asked to fill out a comprehensive health history form. This information helps our practitioners understand your medical background and specific concerns, allowing them to tailor the treatment to your needs.

Your initial consultation will involve a detailed discussion with one of our experienced acupuncturists. They will ask about your symptoms, lifestyle, and any previous treatments you’ve tried. This conversation is crucial for developing a personalized treatment plan that addresses your unique health goals.

Once the consultation is complete, the acupuncturist will explain the treatment process and what you can expect during the session. They will show you the sterile, single-use needles used for the procedure and address any questions or concerns you might have. It’s normal to feel a bit anxious if it’s your first time, but our practitioners are here to ensure you feel comfortable and informed.

During the treatment, you will lie down on a comfortable treatment table. The acupuncturist will carefully insert thin needles into specific points on your body, depending on your condition. You might feel a slight pinch or tingling sensation as the needles are inserted, but most people find the process to be painless and relaxing.

Once the needles are in place, you will rest for about 20 to 30 minutes. Many clients find this time incredibly relaxing, often falling asleep. The acupuncturist will check on you periodically to ensure you’re comfortable and to make any necessary adjustments.

After the treatment, the needles will be gently removed, and you may feel a sense of calm and relaxation. Your acupuncturist will discuss any immediate effects you might experience and provide recommendations for follow-up treatments. They may also suggest lifestyle changes, dietary adjustments, or other complementary therapies to enhance your results.

At Acupuncture Sunrise, we are committed to providing a supportive and healing environment. Our goal is to make your first visit and every subsequent visit a positive step towards improved health and well-being. If you have any questions or concerns about your treatment, our team is always here to help.
