Whether you enjoy surfing, mountain biking, climbing, pickleball, or time in the gym, your activities are an important part of your life. If you are considering acupuncture, a consultation is a chance to discuss that context and ask questions.
Talk about your activity and care history
Bring information about your training, any recent injury, your symptoms, and care you are already receiving. An injury may need medical assessment before you decide on a complementary approach.
Understand the proposed session
Ask what acupuncture involves, whether other modalities are being discussed, and what risks and alternatives apply. Your comfort and consent matter throughout the visit.
Set realistic expectations
Acupuncture appointments should not be presented as a guarantee of faster recovery, better athletic performance, or injury prevention. Discuss how any sessions would fit with your existing medical or rehabilitation plan.
Working with Lee
A consultation provides time to discuss your goals, health history, and preferences. You can ask questions about the process before choosing whether to proceed.
