Initial Assessment

If you have a goal for treatment beyond general wellbeing/ health maintenance, an initial assessment is required before your first treatment, as it is needed to form an effective treatment plan. During the assessment, we will discuss your health history, goals for treatment, and signs or symptoms that aid in the formation of the proper TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) diagnosis.

Acupuncture and additional modalities of Traditional Chinese Medicine (nutritional counseling, moxabustion, guasha, cupping, tuina) when indicated.

Deeply relaxing, these treatments can help reduce cosmetic complaints like dark circles, acne, fine lines and wrinkles. They also help reduce sinus congestion and regulate hormonal imbalances.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the aim of a treatment is to correct underlying imbalances within the body. For this reason, a treatment is customized to the individual and how they present on that particular day. That being said, I have developed a few signature protocol treatments that can be applied to most everyone: Balance, Ground, and Uplift

Do you take insurance?

At the end of 2019, Basic Balance terminated contracts with all insurance companies. Although, insurance provided convenience and affordability for some, it prevented me from providing the same level of care to my patients, due to the extra steps/restrictions needed to maintain credentialing and adhere to billing policies. I thank you very much for your understanding and your continued support during this transition.

A superbill is a receipt that includes diagnostic and procedure codes. Some insurance plans, especially those providing coverage for ‘out of network’ providers, will reimburse you the amount you paid, once they receive a superbill. Contact your insurance company to ask about the potential for reimbursement; superbills can be provided upon request, free of charge.
