FAQs
I’m Here for You
What should I expect from my first session?
In our first session, we will explore your medical history, situation, and goals to understand your needs. Chinese medicine goes beyond symptoms to identify the root cause of any issue. We will develop a plan for your wellness and begin treatment in that session.
How does it work under ACC?
To have a treatment that is covered by ACC (with a $30 surcharge) you will need to have a claim with ACC for an injury, The practitioner who made the claim for you (Doctor, Physiotherapist, Chiropractor, Osteopath) will have given you an ACC45 number. You will need this before coming to see me.
