What to ask about pain relief, your visit, fees, and insurance
Acupuncture may help with some pain conditions. The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health describes evidence for back or neck pain, knee pain associated with osteoarthritis, and some headaches. Evidence and individual results vary.
Ask whether acupuncture is appropriate for your concern and how it could fit alongside your existing care. It should not delay medical evaluation or replace prescribed treatment. Learn about our acupuncture services.
The number of visits depends on your concern, health history, goals, and response to care. There is no fixed number of visits that guarantees improvement.
Before starting, ask about the proposed treatment plan, total costs, and when to review progress. Agree on changes to track, such as pain, sleep, or daily activities, and discuss what to do if you are not improving.
Read our guide to choosing an acupuncturist and evaluating your care.
Our office does not process insurance directly. We provide detailed receipts with billing codes that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
Reimbursement depends on your plan and is not guaranteed. Check acupuncture benefits, out-of-network coverage, and any referral requirements with your insurer before your visit.

Ask what is in the recommended formula, how to prepare and take it, and what side effects or interactions to watch for. Share all medicines and supplements with your practitioner and physician before adding herbs.
Follow the instructions given for your specific formula. If preparation instructions are unclear, call the clinic before using it. You can also browse the clinic's YouTube channel for general information.
