A diagnosis is not necessary in order to get acupuncture for digestive issues. During your initial assessment, we will discuss the symptoms you’re experiencing, when they started, and how it’s impacting your quality of life. Based on that, a treatment plan will be made to best suit your needs. Even if you do eventually get a diagnosis, your treatments will likely not change. Usually, in Traditional Chinese Medicine, symptoms are more important than a medical diagnosis. Additionally, getting acupuncture while you wait for testing will help alleviate pain and discomfort without impacting your ability to get testing done later on.
