TTC After a Loss

acupuncture update

I went for a consultation today, but had no treatment. They want to do 4 treatments within 2 week and re-evaluate me to see how aggressive of a treatment plan that will be needed. They also have you do a complimentary education class to show you the science behind acupuncture. 

They do have the ability to prescribe herbs too, everyone that works there has a masters in chinese medicine. They also each have other specialties such as nutrition and fitness, fertility/biology, and a few others. 

I go for my first treatment tomorrow, so I will let you all know about it when I get home.

I hope all of you are well today, hugs to those in need.

  • Sounds like you are in good hands.  Personally, I always treat on the first appointment, but I guess every practice operates differently.  It's great that you have access to herbs, too.  Using both modalities can definitely offer better results.  Good luck tomorrow!
