Understand the pattern
Start with your story.
Bowel patterns vary. What matters is a change from your usual routine and how it affects you. Tell us about stool consistency, straining, medication, and how long symptoms have been present.
Constipation can have dietary, medication-related, and medical causes. We discuss complementary options after reviewing your history, without promising a cleanse or using detox claims.
Personalized options

Acupuncture as an optional adjunct

Our recommended combination
Acupuncture with herbal support.
For these concerns, we generally recommend combining acupuncture with individualized Chinese herbal medicine when appropriate. Your doctor reviews your health history, medications, and goals before recommending a formula.
One coordinated care plan
Acupuncture and herbal recommendations are considered together so the plan fits your concerns and daily routine. We review your response and adjust recommendations as needed.
This is complementary support alongside appropriate medical care. It does not promise a cure or require you to stop prescribed treatment.
Simple capsule options
We use Sun Ten and Evergreen capsules when recommended. Capsules offer a convenient alternative to preparing herbal decoctions and can make the recommended routine easier to follow.
Herbal recommendations may be discussed as part of your acupuncture treatment. Capsules are purchased separately according to your needs and the doctor’s recommendations.

Clear answers before you begin.
Your symptoms & care
Do you recommend acupuncture and herbal support together?
We generally recommend considering the combination when appropriate. Your history and medications guide the formula review; herbs are not required for every patient. Capsules are purchased separately.
Can you help if medication is contributing?
We can review your medication list and suggest discussing the issue with the prescriber. Do not stop prescribed medicine on your own.
What should I record?
Note changes in frequency, stool consistency, straining, and associated pain or bloating.
Planning your visit
How many visits will I need?
There is no fixed number for every person. Your findings, preferences, and response guide the plan. Follow-up should review whether care helps the goals you agreed on.
How do I prepare for a first appointment?
Bring relevant records and your medication list. You can also write down your main questions and a brief symptom timeline. Contact the office about fees and coverage before booking.
