Welcome to your Acupuncture journey with Aligned Modern Health!
New Patient Acupuncture visits are approximately 90 minutes in length and include a full health history and examination.
In most cases, treatment is administered at the first visit (unless an acute medical concern prohibits treatment). “Treatment” may refer to the administration of acupuncture needles, electronic stimulation of needles, cupping, moxibustion, heat therapy, and/or other modalities under the Traditional Chinese Medicine umbrella. Your provider will review all suggested treatments and modalities with you at your visit.
Please make sure that you eat something within two (2) hours prior to your appointment.
Please do not brush or scrape your tongue on the day of your appointment, as an examination of your tongue is often a part of the new patient visit.
If you have any questions about the above, please contact us at (773) 692-6700. We are here for you and happy to help!
