What should I expect for my first session?

Your first appointment includes a comprehensive consultation where we discuss your health history, lifestyle, and wellness goals. From there, we'll create a personalized treatment plan and begin your first treatment. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and arriving well hydrated. Most patients leave feeling deeply relaxed and supported.

What conditions can acupuncture help with?

Acupuncture can support a wide range of conditions, including pain, stress, anxiety, headaches, digestive concerns, sleep issues, women's health, fertility, hormonal imbalances, allergies, and overall wellness. Every treatment is personalized to address your individual health goals while supporting your body's natural healing process.

How long is a typical session?

Sessions typically last 60-75 minutes, depending on the treatment and add-on services. Initial visits include a more in-depth consultation and may require additional time.

Is acupuncture safe?

Yes. Acupuncture is a safe and well-established form of medicine when performed by a licensed practitioner. At Kai Healing Studio, we use sterile, single-use needles and follow the highest standards of safety and clean needle technique.

Is acupuncture painful?

Acupuncture should not be painful, most people are surprised by how gentle and relaxing it feels. The needles are extremely fine—thinner than a strand of hair—and inserted with great care. You may feel a slight sensation of warmth, heaviness, or tingling, which are all completely normal and often a sign that your body is responding. Many people even fall asleep during their sessions.

Is cosmetic acupuncture safe, and what are its benefits?

Yes—cosmetic acupuncture is a safe, natural approach to skin rejuvenation that gently stimulates collagen and elastin production, improves skin tone, activates and lifts the muscles, softens fine lines and wrinkles, reduces puffiness, and boosts circulation and lymphatic flow. It works from the inside out, enhancing your skin’s vitality while also supporting your overall well-being and relaxation. It is a beautiful way to age gracefully and glow radiantly without downtime.

How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments varies depending on your health concerns, goals, and how long you've been experiencing symptoms. Some patients notice improvement after just a few treatments, while chronic or complex conditions often benefit from a series of sessions. During your first visit, we'll discuss a treatment plan that's tailored to your individual needs.

Is microneedling safe?

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is very safe when done by a licensed practitioner using medical-grade, sterile equipment. Our holistic approach ensures your skin is properly assessed, prepped, and nourished before and after treatment. It helps improve skin texture, fine lines, acne scars, pigmentation, and overall skin health with minimal downtime.

Can I combine treatments?

Yes, absolutely. Many clients choose to combine services—such as acupuncture with gua sha, LED light therapy or cupping—for a more comprehensive and personalized experience. Treatments are thoughtfully tailored based on your goals. During your consultation, we will discuss the best combination for your unique needs.

Do you offer herbal therapy?

Yes. Chinese herbal medicine may be recommended as part of your personalized treatment plan to support concerns such as digestive health, hormonal balance, fertility, immunity, stress, sleep, and overall wellness.

Do you accept insurance?

Kai Healing Studio is an out-of-network practice and does not bill insurance directly. We are happy to provide a superbill upon request for patients who wish to seek reimbursement through their insurance provider.
