Your path to recovery is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
Step 1. Gathering information.
Tell me what ails you. I am here to listen and help. Our first visit will be a relaxed conversation regarding your specific health concerns, medical history and relevant family health history. I’ll ask you questions to cover all the main organ systems of the human body (i.e. respiratory, cardiovascular, digestive etc.). I’ll also take your pulse and tongue diagnosis. All of this information will be recorded in your confidential patient file, which I will refer to in the diagnosis of your present and future concerns.
Step 2. TCM Diagnosis & Treatment Plan.
Time for a game plan. I’ll use the information we have gathered to create a TCM diagnosis and treatment plan specifically designed to address your concerns, and boost your body’s healing processes.
Step 3. Consent & Treatment.
Lay back and relax. It’s time for you to enjoy some well deserved “me time”. But rest assured, we will not proceed with any treatment until I have explained exactly what is going to happen, and you are completely satisfied with the treatment plan. Building and maintaining your trust is of utmost importance to me and I want to make sure you are comfortable and at ease. Your treatment will not only involve acupuncture needle insertion, but will be a robust, complete therapy which will include supplementary treatment modalities to bring you optimal relief, such as moxibustion, cupping, gua sha, and/or bodywork (tuina and shiatsu).
