- New patient intake:
- 15-25 minutes
- $30 (waived if all forms filled out completely online prior to arrival)
- It is important to get a good idea of each patient’s constitution and lifestyle, in addition to all of the conditions that a patient wants to have treated. Having all of the medical history and waivers filled out and signed in advance saves a lot of time, so this fee will not be charged if you complete all of the forms beforehand.
- Single sided acupuncture treatment:
- 35 minutes
- $50
- Patient receives one round of needles to treat one or more conditions. Needles are retained for about 15 minutes and then removed. Patient may receive some instruction on stretches, exercises or meditation related to conditions treated.
- Double sided acupuncture treatment:
- 45-55 minutes
- $50 (Increasing to $80 effective June 1, 2026)
- Patient receives one round of needles which are retained for about 5 minutes, then another round of needles on the opposite side of the body (e.g. front vs back) which are retained for about 15 minutes. Patient may receive some instruction on stretches, exercises or meditation related to conditions being treated.
- Patients may request double sided treatment at any time.
- I will recommend double sided treatment for cases in which I think a condition will improve more quickly with more intensive treatment.
- Ear seed therapy (other treatment or herb supplement purchase required):
- $10
- Small, round seeds are taped on to the ear, to stimulate acupuncture points for a period of a few days.
