What to expect

Licensed in North Carolina

Acupuncturists in North Carolina are licensed by the state Acupuncture Licensing Board.

Works alongside your doctor

Many people use acupuncture together with their regular medical care. It is not a replacement for it.

Time to talk

The first visit starts with a conversation about your health and what you want to change.

Common questions

Does acupuncture hurt?

The needles are very thin. Most people feel little, maybe a dull ache or tingle, and many find it relaxing.

Is it safe?

Serious problems are rare when a licensed practitioner uses sterile, single-use needles. Tell the practitioner about any health conditions and medicines.

Does insurance cover it?

Some plans do and many do not. Check with your insurance company, and ask the practitioner about payment.

Should I still see my doctor?

Yes. Keep seeing your doctor, and let them know you are trying acupuncture.

Want to give it a try?

It takes about a minute, and you'll know who is calling before you send.
