What should I wear during my treatment?
This is ultimately up to you, though please do not wear jeans during your treatment.
Some people like to wear loose-fitting clothing, like track pants or shorts and a t-shirt. Others strip to their underwear and choose to be draped with a sheet.
-
Is acupuncture always combined with bodywork?
Yes. At Daniel Adler Clinic I always combine acupuncture with Zen Shiatsu bodywork for a more holistic and beneficial experience.
The bodywork I administer facilitates the healing process, giving you a more comprehensive treatment during your session.
-
How often do you recommend an acupuncture treatment?
The frequency of your acupuncture treatments will be directly related to the severity of the issue we are addressing.
For example, if your problem is acute and severe, treatments might be as frequent as every two days until resolved.
-
Is acupuncture more commonly used to treat ailments or for health maintenance?
I more frequently administer acupuncture to treat specific ailments as opposed to general health maintenance, however this is not a hard and fast rule.
Many of my clients keep monthly or bi-monthly acupuncture appointments as a component of proactively managing their health.
-
How frequently do I take my prescribed herbs?
Your herbs are taken three times per day, every day, for the duration of your prescribed regimen.
-
Are you able to help me if I’m in the “red” pain zone?
Yes. In fact, most of my clients seek treatment when they are in the “red zone”. This happens either when a problem has just occurred or they have been living with and enduring it until it has become overwhelmingly difficult.
Ideally, however, when there is a specific problem you should book treatment when you are in the “early orange zone”. This will make it easier to return to the green zone.
