Questions for an acupuncture consultation
Ask who will assess whether acupuncture is appropriate, what qualifications the practitioner holds and how the proposed sessions fit with your existing medical care. NCCIH provides an evidence and safety overview; it does not establish that a particular Beijing provider or treatment is suitable for you.
Discuss medicines and relevant medical conditions directly with the treating practitioner. Ask about expected appointments, costs, communication and when to seek review. This website does not prescribe a course, choose points or promise an outcome. An inquiry about visit support does not book a clinical service.
