Boston has become a favorite city for acupuncturists to open clinics, partly due to its close proximity to the New England School of Acupuncture and its reputation as a leading city for healthcare. But when it comes to choosing a Boston acupuncturist, it’s important to visit one that you feel can give you the best care.

Ongoing Acupuncture Care

That’s because in most cases, a visit to an acupuncturist is not a one-and-done session. Depending upon your health condition and other factors, acupuncture may require several sessions over time to improve your health and help you achieve the goals. Also, you’ll want a Boston area acupuncturist that you can develop a good relationship with. This practitioner will become an integral part of your health care provider network.

Your First Acupuncture Treatment

Choose a Boston acupuncturist you feel completely comfortable with. Most will offer a free phone consultation and should spend most of the actual first treatment appointment discussing the reason for your visit, your health history, and your lifestyle. They should also be willing to answer any questions you have any the actual treatment itself and keep your comfort level into consideration when treatment is taking place. Acupuncturists realize that many people are nervous about having needles inserted into their skin, and many are more than happy to answer questions about the process itself. They will also offer advice on how you can optimize your health and well being in between sessions.

Complementary Therapies in Boston

You should also take into consideration what complementary treatments your acupuncturist offers to take advantage of the best acupuncture in Boston. Many Boston acupuncturists use holistic treatments in conjunction with acupuncture to facilitate healing. These treatments often include cupping, where a suction is created inside a small cup which is then placed over the area of concern on the body; the use of essential oils during acupuncture, whose scent can encourage healing; and bodywork, which helps rebalance musculoskeletal systems and improve energy circulation. Herbal liniment treatments are also often used to relieve sore muscles and joint pain.

Acupuncture Training

Your acupuncturist’s education and training can also help determine whether you’re receiving the best acupuncture in Boston. There are many good acupuncture schools throughout the U.S., but many acupuncturists also study and receive hands-on training abroad in Asia, particularly if they are trained in innovative techniques. They should hold a license to practice in the state of Massachusetts. Many Boston acupuncturists teach classes at the New England School of Acupuncture and belong to professional acupuncture organizations.

To find the best acupuncture in Boston, do your research. Peruse review sites, ask people you know who have used acupuncture for recommendations, and feel free to reach out to practitioners to ask questions before choosing the right one for you.
