Information for new patients

The fist step to creating a custom treatment plan for you is to meet with the doctor and go over your current concerns as well as any ongoing health issues.  Once you have met with Dr. Carrie and discussed all of your relevant concerns she will create a custom treatment plan for you.  It is important to take the time for this first step as it will enable us to accurately assess your needs, create a traditional diagnosis that will shape your treatments, and give you and Dr. Carrie  some time to get to know each other. 

Once you have finished your consultation and received  your treatment plan we are ready to begin treatments.  Please wear comfortable loose fitting clothing that can easily be pulled up to the knee and elbow, or bring a change of clothes for your treatment.  
 

After your treatment you can resume normal activities, but it is best to avoid extreme exertion.  The more simple your day, the better your body can integrate the treatment.   Be sure to drink  plenty of water, and listen to your body.  You may feel more rested and energized, or perhaps a little relaxed and sleepy.  
 

Winchester Acupuncture Clinic does not bill your insurance, however if your insurance does cover acupuncture you can still be reimbursed.  The cost of your treatment plan will depend upon what therapies you need and how many treatments are recommended.  It is very important to complete the full course of treatment that is recommended for best results.  We do require a 50% payment in order to begin treatments.   

That's it!  We cant wait to see you.
