To prepare for your acupuncture treatment, we suggest you do the following on the day of your appointment:
- Wear loose, comfortable clothing for easier access to
acupuncture points. Patients who wear clothing that can be pulled up to the knees and above the elbows often do not need to change clothes for the treatment.
- Do not eat an unusually large or heavy meal immediately
before or after your treatment, but do not arrive hungry.
- Do not over exercise or consume alcoholic beverages within six
hours before or after the treatment. Abuse of drugs or alcohol prior to treatment could interfere with the effectiveness of your acupuncture treatment.
- Continue to take any prescription medicines as directed by your
regular doctor.
- Remember to keep good mental or written notes of your
response to the treatment and share them with your acupuncturist.
