About This Procedure:
This is a short visit for acupuncture treatment. Acupuncture is a Traditional Chinese Medicine practice in which thin needles are placed into the skin at certain points. This is done to redirect energy, called qi, and relieve pain -- based on the idea that energy flows through the body on pathways called meridians and blocked meridians can prevent the energy from flowing resulting in illness or pain.
This particular acupuncture visit is for a 15-minute session; for each additional 15-minutes of treatment the price is comparable to the price of the first 15-minutes shown here. This visit does not involve electro-stimulation in which a small electrical charge is applied to the needles – generally the fees for stimulation services are a bit higher. Other pain relief treatments include heat and ice, massage, chiropractic manipulation, physical therapy, and pain medicines.
