In-Home Services
for Acupuncture and East Asian Medicine
Beginning July 2024, we will only be seeing patients
by appointment at FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Center in Sequim
+ continuing at Dandelion Botanical for Thursday Community Acupuncture Clinic
In-Home Services are
beneficial for people experiencing
the following situations:
What to Expect?
-
Pain, injuries, chronic conditions
-
Anxiety and stress
-
Post-surgery
-
Pregnancy + postpartum
-
Difficulty with transportation
-
Families with multiple patients needing services
-
If you feel more comfortable in your home environment
-
Busy individuals who operate largely at home
-
People open to the experience
-
We will come to your home and bring all the necessary supplies and equipment.
-
You will complete the forms prior to the appointment.
-
You will provide medical papers, prepared (i.e. findings / interpretations of imaging, medication list, labs, etc...)
-
Our intake process, paperwork and visits are similar to what you would experience at an in-clinic environment.
-
The practitioner will generally arrive 10-15 minutes prior to your appointment, in order to have a timely start.
How Do I Prepare Myself?
-
Have a general level of cleanliness.
-
Wear comfortable clothing that allows us to work on your arms and legs.
-
There may be some level of disrobing. We will provide sheets.
-
Do not drink a large amount of caffeinated beverages.
-
Eat 1 to 3 hours before the appointment, so you feel grounded.
-
Inform others in the house, so they may give space and the quietness you require.
-
Have a plan for pets that may jump or wish to lay on you.
-
Payment processing occurs first. Then, we move forward with the evaluation and/or treatment session.
How Do I Prepare My Home?
-
We will utilize your chairs or couches.
-
The use of a massage table or zero gravity chair is minimal or rare for in-home services. Its use is subject to the acupuncture and East Asian medicine practitioner's assessment of the home's space, and ability to timely set up + breakdown equipment.
-
A general level of cleanliness and decluttered space is appreciated ; however, it does not have to be a spotless home!
-
Please provide fresh air space; meaning, we prefer to have limited excess scents present. Normal cooking and home scents are ok.
For cancellations less than 24 hours in advance, you will be charged a
forfeiture fee of $25 ; if you are not at home for your appointment
you will be charged a no-show fee of $50.
