Acupuncture
Acupuncture uses thin, solid, metallic needles to penetrate the skin, at specific acupuncture points throughout the body, the needle is often gently stimulated to activate the Qi in the channel of which the acupuncture point is located.
Your very first acupuncture appointment can be up to 60 minutes long. This initial visit gives you and Dr. Jenessa the chance to look over your overall health history, talk about your health problems, concerns, and expectations. A treatment plan will also be discussed. After the intake you will receive your first acupuncture treatment with Dr. Jenessa.
Follow up acupuncture appointments are 30 minutes. Additional time might be required if you and Dr. Jenessa choose to add other modalities such as cupping, Infrared, or add herbs into your treatment plan.
