Welcome to the beginning of your journey to wellness.
During your first appointment.
We will spend quite a bit of time discussing the reason you are seeking out treatment, so that we can guide you in the right direction.
Most patients will begin with Acupuncture to address their current health issues, however we will make that determination during your initial consultation.
We will go over your intake form and discuss your health history. We will review any and all recent blood work. It is important to gather as much information as we can during this time, as we are always focusing on treating you as a whole person, rather than just the one complaint you may have. Some questions may seem weird or irrelevant, but at Evolve we see relevance in everything from your parents' health history to your sleep habits to whether or not you prefer hot or cold drinks. Everything is connected!
After we talk, we may take your pulse and/or look at your tongue. We will also palpate different areas of the body—areas of pain, meridians, muscle channels, the abdomen. This will further help us assess what is going on in your body in order to come up with a treatment plan that best suits you. After we’ve gathered all of this information we will design a protocol that is right for you.
Our goal during this appointment is to put protocols in place to help your body heal.
We will then set up your acupuncture appointments to get you started on your healing journey. This may incorporate cupping, gua sha, electric stem and herbal remedies.
We are always interested in your nutrition because we know that food is medicine and plays an essential role in your healing. We offer Holistic Nutrition to help make your healing as expedient as possible. Our Director of Nutrition works with each patient individually to come up with just the right plan for your health goals.
“Amazingly compassionate and kind staff. Dr. Marrone connected so well with my sister who is an MS patient with memory loss. The initial visit was over an hour long. The Dr. asked questions in a way that made it easy for her to reply and stay focused. Nothing short of magical. Looking forward to the healing journey ahead of us.”
Acupuncture
It is no secret that our physical, mental, and emotional well-being are interconnected—that our environment and life experiences, from injuries to illness and trauma, can change our bodies just as much as our health affects how we carry ourselves and perceive the world around us.
We see this connection and the ways it manifests in our patient’s health everyday.
Our Acupuncture treatments value these connections and use a personalized, holistic approach to treat the underlying roots of your condition, beyond the symptom-level. Our care is meant to facilitate your own healing process so you can reclaim a deeper sense of relief, harmony, and embodiment.
Acupuncture is an effective form of medical treatment that has evolved into a complete holistic health care system. Practitioners of acupuncture and Chinese medicine have used this noninvasive treatment method to help millions of people become well and stay well.
Acupuncture promotes natural healing. It can enhance recuperative power and immunity, support physical and emotional health, and improve overall function and well-being. It is a safe, painless and effective way to treat a wide variety of medical problems.
Functional Medicine
Another way that we help our patients heal their body is with Functional Medicine
Functional medicine practitioners spend time with their patients, listening to their histories and looking at the interactions among genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors that can influence long-term health and complex chronic disease.
The use of functional lab testing and other diagnostic techniques allow us to get to the root of our patients health concerns. We incorporate the use of nutritional supplements, botanicals, herbs, appropriate nutritional programs well as stress management protocols.
