Acupuncture
in Jersey City.

What acupuncture involves

Acupuncture involves stimulation of specific points on the body, commonly with very thin needles. It is a distinct service from chiropractic treatment and physical rehabilitation. The practitioner can explain the proposed approach, including what you may experience during a visit.

Discussing whether it is suitable

Use your appointment to discuss your goals, previous care, and questions about possible benefits and risks. Suitability depends on your circumstances. Discuss potential benefits, risks, and alternatives with your practitioner.

Ask who will provide your treatment and how it may fit alongside other care. Our team can answer questions about the provider and scheduling.

Before your visit

Call to check acupuncture provider availability, appointment arrangements, and cost or insurance questions. Ask whether you need any preparation and which information to bring. Bring your medical questions to the practitioner at your appointment.
