As an "Out Of Network" provider, payment is collected at the time of treatment; a Superbill can be provided to the patient to submit for reimbursement. We do not bill insurance directly.

HSA/FSA cards are accepted as payment for all services (as per HSA/FSA account agreements) and a receipt will be issued with relevant diagnosis codes.

Air purifiers with MERV-13 (medical grade HEPA) filters are used continuously. Tables are sprayed in between sessions with a disinfecting solution that is proven to kill coronavirus cells. Masks are part of health hygiene; we will use masks whenever patient or practitioner requests or deems necessary. Please reach out via email with specific concerns.

It's natural; the thought of needles makes many people nervous. I can assure you, I use the thinnest needles available, which are also sterile and disposable. After 20 years of practice, I am able to make the process nearly painless. Orthopedic techniques might elicit soreness in the process of healing; hydration, movement, and topical liniments will help.

Generally, it's advised to plan for some 'integration time' after receiving a healing treatment of any kind. This may include gentle walking, drinking water/tea, or simply sitting under a tree. You may find yourself more aware of your emotions. It's best to avoid stressful conversations, heavy work demands, and challenging workouts after a session.

Like all health care practices, consistency and regularity are keys to successful outcomes. Some conditions are more persistent than others. Since everyone responds differently; multiple sessions help refine your treatments for your unique presentation. Evidence indicates that acupuncture works best when received 1-2x/week. Your symptoms developed over time; healing takes time as well.
