Acupuncture appointment, $100: This is a follow-up acupuncture appointment for existing patients. It is 1 hour in length, will include acupuncture. It may also include moxibustion, cupping, gua sha, and/or tui na. 

Children’s acupuncture, $60: This visit is for children, aged 12 and under. It is 30 minutes in length, and may include needling, moxibustion, cupping, gua sha, and/or tui na. We don’t always use needles in children’s appointments; we have other ways of stimulating acupoints, such as the tuning fork and acupressure. Don’t worry if your child can’t sit still for 30 minutes with acupuncture needles. The general rule of thumb for children is that needles are retained for one minute per year, i.e. 5 minutes for a 5-year-old.

Herbal medicine prescriptions are also available for interested acupuncture patients. The cost of herbs prescribed is in addition to the cost of the acupuncture treatment.

Cupping, $60:

This is a 30 minute session of cupping bodywork.  Both moving and stationary cupping techniques are implemented.  The glass cups glide seamlessly across the surface of the skin with the application of emollient oils.  This is an excellent way to relieve musculoskeletal tension, thereby alleviating pain and stress and inviting a feeling of spaciousness. And it’s just a half hour! It’s a powerful way to bring significant relief in a short amount of time.
