CLIENT RESOURCES
Learn how to prepare, what to expect from virtual care, where to find secure forms and messages, and which policies guide your appointments.
NEW CLIENTS
Complete your secure CharmHealth intake and consent forms before your visit. Prepare your medication and supplement list, relevant records, and the questions you want to discuss. For in-person treatment, wear comfortable clothing that allows access to the treatment area.
Review the consultationVIRTUAL CARE
Choose a private place with reliable internet, a working camera, and a microphone. We can have the same detailed conversation and create an acupuncture and wellness plan virtually, but hands-on assessment and treatment require an office visit. Send health questions and documents through the secure CharmHealth portal rather than regular email.
VIRTUAL DISPENSARY
Fullscript provides access to professional supplements and botanical products. A product appearing in the dispensary does not mean it is appropriate for everyone. Any education or product guidance from Afiyah is limited to applicable professional scope and considers medications, allergies, pregnancy, and possible interactions. Do not stop or change prescribed treatment without speaking with the prescribing clinician.

Booking is open for virtual visits starting November 23, 2026. In-person visits are coming soon. Request a virtual appointment on the booking page; requests require approval.
Consultations focus on your history, goals, safety, and care plan. Acupuncture and other treatments are scheduled separately and use the treatment fees listed on the Services & Fees page.
The 90-minute extended consultation offers more time for a complex history, several overlapping concerns, or extensive records. If you are unsure, review both options on the Services & Fees page and ask Afiyah a general scheduling question.
No. Individual visits remain an option. A prepaid series is considered after your evaluation, when regular acupuncture or hydrotherapy fits your care plan. It covers only the named treatments; consultation fees are separate.
Begin with the Comprehensive Integrative Wellness Consultation. It provides enough time to discuss your history, current concerns, goals, and the most appropriate next steps.
Yes. Consultation-based services are available virtually and in person. Acupuncture, cupping, moxibustion, contrast hydrotherapy, hands-on assessment, and other physical treatments are provided in person.
Afiyah is a self-pay practice and does not bill commercial insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. HSA or FSA eligibility depends on your plan, so please confirm with your administrator.
No. Afiyah works alongside your broader care team and does not replace primary, urgent, emergency, or specialist medical care.
Yes. Afiyah offers age-appropriate pediatric and adolescent acupuncture and wellness support. A parent or legal guardian participates in intake and consent, and care is coordinated with the child’s pediatrician or specialists when appropriate. Pediatric care does not replace routine pediatric, urgent, emergency, or specialty medical care.
Acupuncture uses very fine, sterile, single-use needles at selected points. How it works is not fully understood, although research suggests effects on the nervous system and local tissues. You may feel a quick pinch, heaviness, warmth, or tingling. Most people tolerate treatment well, but temporary soreness or bruising can occur.
Moxibustion uses controlled warmth from prepared mugwort near selected acupuncture points. You should feel warmth rather than burning. We ask about asthma, smoke or scent sensitivity, skin concerns, pregnancy, and changes in temperature sensation before treatment.
Contrast hydrotherapy uses carefully timed warm and cool applications as a supportive wellness treatment. The temperature, timing, and treatment area are adjusted after a safety review. Some heart, circulation, nerve, skin, pregnancy-related, or temperature-sensation concerns may require changes or make the treatment unsuitable.
Standard cupping creates suction without opening the skin. It may use dry, sliding, or fire-cupping methods. Wet cupping, also called hijama, adds very small superficial openings in the skin and therefore requires additional consent, sterile supplies, infection-control steps, wound care, and safety screening.
Booking, intake forms, secure messages, appointment details, and applicable online payments are managed through CharmHealth.
