When you arrive for your first acupuncture appointment you and your provider will discuss your condition, and your pulse and tongue will be examined, which are two of the basic diagnostic methods of Oriental medicine. The acupuncture points chosen will depend on your condition, but you can expect approximately 20 needles. Once the needles are inserted, you are left to lie comfortably for 15-20 minute increments with the needles in place. Many people find acupuncture treatment deeply relaxing, and it is not uncommon for patients to fall asleep during this time. At the end of the treatment, adjunctive therapies may be used, such as gua sha, cupping, or tui na.
