It is time to raise my rates. My rates for acupuncture follow-up appointments haven’t changed for so long that I cannot remember when I last raised them. After a little research I found that 12 years ago I was charging the same as I am now, so it has been at least 12 years since my last rate increase. So, I am raising my rates by $10. Here is the new fee schedule:
Acupuncture follow-ups (50 minutes): $85
Acupuncture initial session (2 hours): $185 (no change)
Zero Balancing session (35 minutes): $85
Delux treatment – acupuncture + mini Zero Balancing (75 minutes): $125
Thai Bodywork (75 minutes): $125
Shonishin (no needle treatment) for babies and toddlers (20 minutes): $55
Shonishin/acupuncture combo for kids (35-50 minutes): $85
Herbal medicine – varies but most tablets will increase from $18 to $20 – and concentrated granules (powders) from $.25/gram to $.30/gram. My main goal with herbs is to cover the costs, so I am still making the effort to keep the prices reasonable.
