How to Prepare For Your First Acupuncture Appointment

Excited to get started with us? Here is your How To Guide for New Patients

Here's how to prepare for a blissful experience:

  1. Book Your New Patient Appointment online or give us a call (415-795-3252) at your convenience. Give yourself enough time for an hour with us as well as getting here, parking, etc.

  2. Fill out your New Patient Paperwork online with our easy patient portal, Jane!

  3. Eat Light: Enjoy a light meal before your appointment to avoid feeling too hungry during your session. Acupuncture improves your metabolism and we want you to feel grounded.

  4. Wear Comfortable Clothes: Opt for loose, comfortable clothing to help you relax during your session.

  5. Arrive Early: Arriving a few minutes early allows you to unwind and find parking. There is ample street parking available near our clinic. Metered parking is all along Sacramento St. and there is free neighborhood parking behind the clinic towards Park Presidio.

  6. Prepare to Relax: Come with an open mind and get ready to relax deeply. The Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine experience can be deeply relaxing and feel like a meditative experience. Some folks even fall asleep. After we discuss your health history, healthcare goals, and answer your questions, you will get to relax and enjoy acupuncture, which can sometimes feel like a nap.

We can't wait to welcome you to our acupuncture clinic nestled in the beautiful Presidio Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. See you soon!
