What a Session Includes

They may also assess your tongue, pulse, and overall energy flow to determine imbalances in your body. This detailed consultation helps form a personalized treatment plan tailored to your health concerns.

You will then lie comfortably on a treatment table while fine, sterile needles are gently placed into key meridian points.
