Treatments take place in private rooms, and last about one hour. The
patient is usually laying face up or down on an examining table. Treatment
gowns are provided or, depending on the condition, loose clothing can
be worn. The needles used in treatment are single-use sterilized disposable
needles made of solid stainless steel.
In additions to acupuncture, Matthew uses a number of
modalities including yoga, physical therapy, herbal medicine, Tui Na
massage, and nutrition to treat a variety of ailments.
