Prepare for Your Appointment

We want your visit to Yin Acupuncture to be relaxing and effective from the moment you arrive. A little preparation helps you get the most out of your treatment.

Before you come in

• Complete your patient form in advance. Please download, print, and fill out the Patient Form, and bring it with you so we can begin on time.
• Eat a light meal beforehand. Come with something in your stomach — a small, light meal an hour or two before — but avoid arriving very full or completely empty, as either can leave you lightheaded during treatment.
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing. Acupuncture points are often on the arms, lower legs, and back, so clothing that is easy to roll up or adjust works best.
• Arrive about 10 minutes early. This gives you time to settle in, relax, and complete any remaining paperwork.
• Bring a list of your medications and supplements, along with any relevant medical records, imaging, or lab results that relate to your concern.
• Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and vigorous exercise right before your visit, and try to stay well hydrated.

During and after

• Treatments are tailored to you, so let your practitioner know about any changes in how you are feeling.
• Many patients feel deeply relaxed afterward — give yourself a little time to rest, drink water, and ease back into your day.
