Acupuncture guide
What to expect at a first acupuncture appointment
A first acupuncture visit usually starts with questions, then treatment if that is appropriate. Read the listing for length, and ask what you should wear.
Consultation first
Expect questions about your health and what you want from treatment. This is so the practitioner can decide whether to go ahead, not a promise of a particular result.
Practical details
Wear loose clothing if the listing asks for it, eat a light meal beforehand if you are advised to, and say if you are nervous about needles. You can ask what they are doing at any point.
