Here are some suggestions for your regular visits to an acupuncture clinic:
Please have a small meal 1 to 2 hours prior to your session. Acupuncture treatment on an empty stomach may cause light-headedness or fainting. Arrive 5 minutes early so that you and your body will have a chance to relax before your session.
Prior to your session, please abstain from vigorous exercise, coffee or alcohol as the above-mentioned may affect the effectiveness of your treatment.
Please wear comfortable loose-fitting clothes.
Please do not brush your tongue, as it will affect the accuracy of tongue diagnosis, which is an important part of the diagnosis for customizing your treatment plan.
After your treatment, please try to rest or avoid any vigorous activities, coffee and alcohol, as the body is still in the process of rebalancing itself.
