Welcome to QiWorks Community Acupuncture!
Please read this welcome letter before your first treatment with us.
About us:
Our mission is to provide affordable, high-quality group acupuncture to the community. We treat
multiple people in recliners in a peaceful common room, which helps us to keep costs down. Your acupuncture
treatment might include points on your arms and hands, legs and feet, and/or head and neck. Because
acupuncture channels flow across the entire body, it is possible to treat anything without needling directly into
the affected area. For example, we treat back problems with points on the hands and legs.
First Time? Here's what you need to know.
Treatments are $15-$40—YOU decide what to pay each time. There is an additional $15 first-visit fee.
We ask that you pay before receiving your treatment.
Turn your phone off and come in quietly ... do your best to preserve the calm environment.
You're welcome to bring an iPod or earplugs. We have earplugs near the treatment room door.
Help yourself to blankets and neck supports and make yourself comfortable before your treatment.
Wear loose clothing that you can comfortably roll up to your elbows and knees.
After looking at your chart, the acupuncturist will ask you a few questions. There's not a lot of talking. We
provide over 250 treatments a week, and we've got lots of experience getting “right to the point.”
People experience acupuncture differently, but most feel no or minimal sensation as the needles are inserted.
Needles are single-use, sterile, and stainless steel.
You will relax with your needles in—how long is up to you. The average is 30-60 minutes. Some people read or
listen to their own music. Many people nap. If you need to be out by a certain time, let us know.
Before and/or after the treatment, your acupuncturist will recommend a treatment plan for you. Acupuncture
is a PROCESS, and changes happen over time.
If you are happy with your treatment, please tell your friends and family. The success of our clinic relies on
you. We want you to love acupuncture as much as we do!
Our commitment to you:
We strive to make your course of treatment as quick and effective as possible.
Frequent and regular treatments are much more likely to bring relief. This is especially true at the beginning of a
course of treatment when we are getting the ball rolling. If you don’t come in often enough or for enough
treatments, acupuncture may not work as well for you.
We are a “POCA” Clinic, and part of a national movement.
POCA is the People's
Organization of Community Acupuncture. POCA’s goal is to make acupuncture available
to as many people as possible and to promote stable and sustainable businesses and
jobs. POCA’s website () allows you to search for other POCA clinics by city
or state—it’s a great tool to find clinics similar to QiWorks in other locations.
