  • New Patients: You will you will complete new patient forms, and pay the $55 fee for your first visit. Return visits are $40. (Military/Seniors take $5 off).

  • Once you are situated, your practitioner will come to you, talk about what brings you in, and devise a treatment protocol.

  • You’ll relax for about 45 minutes, then your practitioner will remove your needles and recommend a treatment plan for you.
