    You Cannot Make an Appointment for Acupuncture

    You can request an appointment to discuss the health condition you are seeking help for. Before you are provided the procedure (acupuncture) you will require an evaluation and consultation (you have all been to a doctor, this is no different). The fees for consultations vary based on condition. The doctor may recommend more than acupuncture. Or, the doctor may deem acupuncture not appropriate for you. You cannot just try acupuncture.

    This is a discounted services, which allows the patient to have acupuncture without consultation (talking, getting advice, etc) It is only available for one area of pain as explained at this link http://www.acupunctureinsteadofsurgery.com/affordable-acupuncture-newport-beach/ You can request a consultation for the quick ease option, if you are willing to pay the consultation, and re-evaluation fees. What does this mean? This means there are fees to ask questions, obtain advice, etcetera. If you are receiving the discounted acupuncture service you only get acupuncture. You come in for your appointment, you may receive acupuncture in a sitting position if you are in a wheelchair, you may receive it laying down, you may receive it sitting on a chair.

Supplements or herbal teas may be required for certain conditions in addition to acupuncture. If the patient has a bad reaction to an herb prescribed and they end up in the ER, they will have to talk to the doctor who prescribed the herbs; and there is a fee for her time.
