Ideal Clothing for Acupuncture

The ideal outfit for acupuncture is loose-fitting and easy to adjust:

• Tops that roll easily above the elbow (avoid tight long sleeves)
• Pants or leggings that roll above the knee
• Avoid tight jeans, compression garments, or clothing difficult to move
• Loose shorts or trackpants are ideal for lower body work
• Slip-on shoes rather than lace-ups are easier to remove

Gowns Are Available

If your treatment requires access to the back, abdomen, or other areas not easily accessed through clothing, we provide modesty gowns and draping. Your comfort and privacy are always maintained.

Please let us know at booking if you have any preferences about undressing — we always work within your comfort level.

Skin and Makeup

For facial acupuncture, please arrive with minimal or no makeup on the face. For body treatment, clean skin is preferred but not essential — we use alcohol swabs to prepare the skin before needle insertion.

Avoid applying strong perfumes or scented lotions on the day of treatment, as some patients and practitioners are sensitive.
