Bee Cave Acupuncture


FIRST VISIT



First Visit – This session will last approximately 60-75 minutes.

Office Appointment:

We will be eagerly awaiting you at the scheduled time of your first appointment. If have not filled up the Patient Forms online, we will give them to you when you arrive. This paperwork provides us with your health history and information on your condition.

Consultation:

You will have a consultation to discuss your health-related issues, concerns and potential treatment options. This initial visit is designed to learn more about YOU, your condition, the purpose of your visit, as well as your health expectations and goals to determine how we can better care for you.  Furthermore, we will explain our philosophy and approach for healing.


Acupuncture Treatment and/or Nutritional and Herbal Consultation:

Depending on the nature of your visit, we will provide to you:

  • Acupuncture session (30 minutes) to address your most immediate concerns based on your patient forms and your interview with our practitioner. Every tissue cell has a nerve flow of blood and energy and if that flow is out of balance, the cell/organ can become sick. Acupuncture helps restore that balance.
  • Nutritional and Herbal consultation. We offer a comprehensive nutritional evaluation and corrective recommendations, including whole foods supplements, herbs and gradual diet modification. Herbs are nature’s medicine to stimulate the healing, while whole foods supplements nourish the organs. It is good to feel well!
  • Lifestyle Recommendations: your lifestyle is what got you where you are today in the first place. It is never too late or too early to make lifestyle changes, in fact, the sooner the better. We will assist you in making dietary changes for life!

Report of Findings:

After having reviewed your health history and goals, as well as any other relevant information obtained during the consultation, we will give you a detailed report of findings to answer questions such as:

  • How can we help you?
  • How many sessions (acupuncture and/or nutritional and herbal) you may need?
  • What are some specific nutritional, herbal and general wellness recommendations for you?
  • Depending on your specific condition, we may recommend specific tests (such as blood analysis, saliva and/or hair analysis) to help us develop the most effective treatment plan for you, and alert us of any conditions we should consider.
  • How much will the treatment cost and what are the payment options?



Subsequent sessions: These sessions will last approximately 45 minutes. 

We will have an interview and review of symptoms, noting the changes and explaining what caused the changes from your previous visit.   We will continue to explore the role of diet and lifestyle. Depending on the type of treatment you require, that is acupuncture and/or nutritional and herbal, we will repeat positive findings from the previous visit and/or make the proper adjustments to your treatment and/or nutritional and herbal recommendations.

Approximately, every 4 sessions or every month, we will undertake a more in depth evaluation (similar to your first visit) to assess your improvements and make the appropriate changes to your treatment plan, if necessary.

In every session, we will provide to you educational wellness literature that will aid you in understanding better how your body works and give you practical recommendations of things YOU can do to be healthy, live better and enjoy fully!
