— What to Expect

Your first session, step by step

No guessing, no surprises. Here's exactly what happens when you come in for the first time.

Intake Forms

Required to be filled out at least 48 hours in advance to give me time to prepare for our session together. You'll share your health history, goals, and what you've already tried.


Assessment & listening

Lindsey assesses how you move, where you're holding tension, and what the bigger picture looks like, not just the thing that hurts. She's asking about your gut, your sleep, your stress, your whole system.


Root treatment first

Every session begins with a grounding root treatment to bring your system into balance. Then Lindsey addresses your specific symptoms.


You rest, the needles work

Most people feel deeply relaxed, some fall asleep. The needles are retained for 20–30 minutes while your nervous system does the work. Lindsey checks in throughout.


Debrief & next steps

Before you leave, Lindsey walks you through what she found, what she treated, and what to expect in the days after. You'll leave with a clear picture of what you're working toward together
