Your First Visit
What to Expect?
Congratulations on embracing Chinese medicine as part of your healthcare journey! You’ve made a thoughtful and empowering choice to prioritize your health and well-being.
At Shen Point, your initial visit is carefully crafted to truly understand you as a whole person—not just your symptoms. We dedicate 90 minutes to this thorough session, providing ample time to discuss your health history, address your current concerns, and explore your long-term wellness goals.
Before Your First Visit
Wear loose, comfortable clothing – we’ll need access to areas like arms, legs, and back. If wearing pants or long sleeves, be sure that they can be rolled to the knee or elbow. Gowns are available if needed.
Eat a light meal – avoid coming on an empty stomach.
Hydrate with water – proper hydration supports better treatment response.
Your Initial Consultation
Each treatment begins with a thorough and personalized consultation to carefully review your health history, lifestyle, and individual concerns. This tailored approach allows us to create a treatment plan that is specifically designed to meet your unique needs.
The Acupuncture Experience
During your session, you will be comfortably settled in a peaceful, soothing environment. Sterile, ultra-fine needles are gently placed at precise points on your body. Many patients find this experience deeply relaxing and often feel a renewed sense of well-being both during and after the session.
Aftercare & Results
Following your treatment, we offer personalized guidance on self-care techniques to help enhance and prolong the benefits of your acupuncture sessions. Most patients notice positive changes within just a few visits, with sustained improvements achieved through ongoing, consistent care especially for chronic issues.
