Your First Visit
 If after an initial consultation it is determined that Chinese medicine is an appropriate course of treatment for you, a treatment plan will be developed and reviewed with you.
The first visit includes a 7-day diet analysis, current supplement and medication review, tongue and pulse diagnosis and a review of any labs or diagnostic tests you have had done in the recent past. Our goal at Lotus Path Wellness Center is to make your time spent with us a pleasant and
positive experience.
If you are having acupuncture during your first visit for pain relief, you will be ask to lay on a massage table either face up or down depending the region of pain and needles will be placed in different areas of the body according to the pain pattern. They are sterile, solid stainless steel disposable needles that are generally inserted half to 1 inch into various points of meridian being treated. |
The experience should not be uncomfortable and you may feel a sensation of the “Qi” , at the
point or even in a distant location ,sometimes described as fullness, distention, achiness or tingling. The treatment generally lasts for 30 minutes. A relaxing and comfortable environment
will help facilitate the success of the treatment. After the treatment, you may be given medicinals,
diet recommendations, and informational literature that can start you are your journey to better health.
