How do you prepare? What to Expect after acupuncture or dry needling ?
Before
1.
The Goldilock's rule, please don't arrive hungry or eat a big Thanksgiving dinner. Plan a light meal prior to your treatment.
2.
Your comfort is important to us. Please wear comfortable, loose clothing. Saturday sweatpants are welcome!
3.
Our first consultation may seem like a first date...we want to know everything about you! This will assist in forming the right treatment plan for you.
4.
A diagnosis, treatment plan, and a determination of which modalities will be included in the treatment plan, will be communicated in every session.
After
1.
Post treatment, the efficacy and results can vary. Many treatments will be profound, some may be less effective...we will work as a team to determine the best treatment regimen to produce optimal results.
2.
Avoid strenuous exercise, showering, or swimming immediately following a treatment. Drink plenty of water and avoid alcohol.
3.
Check-in with your body and monitor any changes until the next appointment. In some cases, there may be mild bruising or soreness in the muscle(s), particularly following trigger point therapy.
