Session times are based on needle retention time.  In other words, how long a patient is resting with needles in place.  Session times are padded behind the scenes to handle the amount of time spent discussing and diagnosing the issue prior to treatment.

​

Based on current studies, 20-minutes seems to be the sweet spot for most patients and most complaints.  There is little difference in treatment outcomes from 15-minutes to 30-minutes and very little incremental benefit beyond 30-minutes.  Because of this, we are putting everyone on a 20-minute session starting in July 2026.

​

2026 pricing is as follows: 

• 20-minute session $40

• Q&A/Strategy session is free

Acupuncture may be used to treat a broad range of conditions.  Here's a short list of things I commonly see in clinic:

• Pain and pain conditions whether chronic or acute.  This category includes low back pain, neck pain, limb pain, neuropathic pain, headache, migraine, sports injuries, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), sciatic pain, trigeminal neuralgia, TMJ, and tooth pain.

• PTSD, depression, and generalized anxiety disorder

• Gastric/digestive complaints including IBS, diverticulitis, ulcerative colitis, and Crohn's

• Allergies from seasonal allergy to more serious conditions like Alpha-GAL (I used a modified form of SAAT)​

• Oncology support - chemo induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN), nausea, fatigue, loss of appetite, joint pain resulting from cancer treatment.  Please note, acupuncture and Chinese medicine are not stand alone treatment for cancer.  

• Mild to moderate atrial fibrillation (AFIB), high blood pressure, rapid heart beat (tachycardia), unusually slow heart beat (bradycardia) can all respond well to acupuncture.  In cases where we're dealing with a heart condition, I prefer patients also be under the care of a cardiologist.

• Acupuncture and Chinese medicine do not cure Parkinson's or Multiple Sclerosis, but acupuncture can be effective at dealing with secondary symptoms of both these conditions.  Pain, heaviness in the limbs, temperature tolerance, sleep issues, and difficulty controlling bowels or urination can all respond well to acupuncture treatment.
