F.A.Q.

How soon will I see results?

When it comes to acupuncture and NAET, results depend on several factors. Acute issues typically respond more quickly, while chronic issues like migraines, allergies, and fertility issues take a course or series of treatments. Each course of treatment is 12 acupuncture sessions. At that time, a re-evaluation will be conducted to determine the rate of improvement and whether another course of treatment is advised.

For patients seeking therapy for hormonal imbalance and fertility, a minimum of 4 months is recommended for both partners, as it takes 12 to 16 weeks to regulate the cycle, optimize egg quality and optimize sperm quality and quantity. For all couples trying to conceive, it is highly recommended that both partners receive weekly acupuncture treatment.

What are the most common health issues addressed in the clinic?

Phoenix Rising Integrative Medicine specializes in four main areas: chronic illness & autoimmune, reproductive health & fertility, emotional health, and food sensitivities and environmental allergies. We offer acupuncture treatments for a range of conditions, including migraines, allergies, fertility issues, and more.

Does acupuncture hurt?

No, acupuncture is not painful. The acupuncture treatments we offer at Phoenix Rising are not meant to illicit a strong, physical reaction, as that is not necessary for an effective treatment. 

Does Phoenix Rising accept pediatric patients?

Pediatric patients are accepted on a case-by-case basis. There are non-needle therapies that can be used for treatment, including herbal medicine, acupoint therapy, and NAET (allergy elimination) without needles. We only advise non-needle therapy for patients under the age of 12.

How frequently should I receive acupuncture?

Ultimately, this recommendation is provided by your practitioner during your initial visit after your complete consultation. In general, the recommendations are:

For chronic conditions like allergies, migraines, and fertility issues: twice weekly for 3 weeks, then at least weekly for 4-8 weeks.

How long are the sessions?

Initial in-person visit are 90 minutes, while in-person follow-ups are 45-55 minutes. We do offer virtual visits for functional medicine and herbal consults. 


I don’t live in the Houston area. May I still work with the practitioners at Phoenix Rising?

Yes, virtual visits are available for acute conditions and long-term care. Phoenix Rising offers 4 month personalized treatment plans for fertility patients and 4 to 6 month personalized treatment plans for patients who are seeking care for chronic illness or autoimmune disorders.
