Today, acupuncturists undertake three to four years of extensive and comprehensive graduate training at nationally certified schools.

Please contact us for a fee schedule if you do not have insurance. We offer a time of service discount off our customary fees when billing 3rd parties is NOT required. If you do have insurance coverage, we can verify your coverage prior to your first visit.
The number of treatments will vary from person to person. Some people experience immediate relief; others may take months or even years to achieve results. Chronic conditions usually take longer to resolve than acute ones. Plan on a minimum of a month to see significant changes.
Treatment frequency depends on a variety of factors: your constitution, the severity and duration of the problem and the quality and quantity of your Qi. An acupuncturist may suggest one or two treatments per week, or monthly visits for health maintenance and seasonal “tune ups”.
