Initial Acupuncture Session
In your initial session, you and Krystal will spend 1.5 to 2 hours together in order to conduct a thorough intake and a full treatment. Chinese Medicine treats the whole person and is an individualized medicine, so even though you may be coming in for a specific issue, you will be asked many questions regarding digestion, energy, emotional state and sleep. Krystal will then take your pulse and examine your tongue. The pulse reading is done with 3 fingers on the wrist giving clues to 6 different organ systems. This helps the practitioner to understand where there may be imbalances. The tongue also gives clues, as it can be “read” like a map of the internal body organ system.
Krystal will then come up with an individualized treatment plan. In addition to acupuncture, the plan may also include Chinese herbs, moxibustion, cupping, gua sha, Chinese dietary therapy, essential oils, stone medicine, or any other modality that is appropriate for you.
