Your first visit with your Naturopathic Doctor will take 75 mins. This first visit is extended in order to give your Naturopathic Doctor  a chance to get to know you and gain an in-depth knowledge of your health, both past and present. Your ND will ask you a number of questions regarding your diet, lifestyle, sleep, energy level,  medications, current and past health, etc. Your ND will conduct a physical examination and may prescribe any laboratory tests that are relevant in order to complete an assessment and diagnosis. At the end of the appointment, your  ND will make some initial suggestions and talk with you to collaboratively create an individualized treatment plan and follow-up appointment schedule.

• Needle insertion – During an acupuncture treatment, your acupuncturist inserts hair- thin needles into specific spots on your body. A typical treatment uses 5 to 20 needles. You may feel a mild aching sensation when a needle reaches the correct depth. Normally you should have the sensation of warmth, tingling, achy, pressure or heaviness. Some people often don’t feel them inserted at all. Our skillful  acupuncturists can minimize your discomfort sensation when inserting a needle.
• Needle manipulation – Your practitioner may gently move or twirl the needles after placement.
• Needle removal – In most cases, the needles remain in place for 15 to 20 minutes while you lie still and relax. There is usually no discomfort when the needles are removed.
