- Eat food before your appointment but not a large meal.
- Try not to over exercise or consume alcohol on the day of your treatment.
- Plan your activities so that after the treatment you can get some rest, or at least not have to be working at top performance. This is especially important for the first few visits.
- Continue to take any prescription medicines as directed by your regular doctor.
- Substance abuse (drugs and alcohol) especially in the week prior to treatment may seriously interfere with the effectiveness of acupuncture treatments.
- Be sure to drink plenty of water and stay warm after the treatment.
- Remember to keep good mental or written notes of what your response is to the treatment. This is important so that the follow-up treatments can be designed to best help you and your problem.
