Frequently Asked Questions
Does acupuncture hurt? Most patients are surprised by how comfortable it is. The needles are extremely thin — much finer than the ones used for shots or blood draws — and many people feel little to nothing at all. Most find the experience deeply relaxing.
Is acupuncture safe? Yes. When performed by a licensed, board-certified practitioner like Dr. Karen, acupuncture is very safe. We use only sterile, single-use needles, and your health and comfort are always the top priority.
What can acupuncture treat? Acupuncture is well known for relieving pain, but it can help with much more — including migraines and headaches, stress and anxiety, poor sleep, arthritis, digestive issues, and overall wellness. If you're wondering whether it can help your specific concern, just ask during your free consultation.
How many sessions will I need? It depends on your condition and how long you've had it. Some patients feel relief after just one or two visits, while chronic concerns often respond best to a series of treatments. Dr. Karen will recommend a plan tailored to your goals.
What should I expect at my first visit? Your first visit includes a review of your health history, a conversation about your concerns and goals, assessment and usually your first treatment. Plan for a little extra time so the visit never feels rushed.
What should I wear? Comfortable, loose-fitting clothing is ideal, since it allows easy access to common treatment points on the arms and legs. We'll always make sure you're comfortable throughout your session.
Do you offer a consultation before I commit? Yes! We offer a free 20-minute consultation so you can meet Dr. Karen, ask questions, and decide if acupuncture is right for you — with no pressure and no obligation.
How do I book an appointment? Booking is easy — call or text us at 941-228-4688, or request an appointment right here on our website. We'd love to help you start feeling better.
Do you accept insurance? Yes, we do accept insurance. Coverage for acupuncture varies from plan to plan, so the best way to find out what your policy covers is to give our office a call at 941-228-4688. We're happy to check your benefits for you before your visit.
