Consultation and rates
Consultation
During your first visit you will be asked a series of questions, we will go over in depth your health history and will perform pulse and tongue diagnosis, followed by an acupuncture and / or herbal treatment. If you're a fertility patient, we encourage you to bring your most recent Basal Body Temperature Charts (BBT), provided you have them, or labs work that may be relevant.
We create a customized treatment plan for you using a range of Chinese medicinal therapies. Acupuncture and other modalities including moxa, gua sha, and cupping may be used. Herbs can also be paired with acupuncture to enhance your treatment.
When you leave your first treatment, you will have a clear idea of ​​how many sessions you will have at Zi Yuan Ting, and a realistic assessment of how we can help you.
At Zi Yuan Ting you will receive a 90 minute initial consultation. Follow-up treatments last 45-60 minutes.
