How many treatments will I need?
It depends on your condition and your goals. Your doctor builds a personal plan for you and adjusts it along the way.

Alpha-gal
Alpha-gal questions
Can acupuncture help alpha-gal syndrome?
Alpha-gal is an allergy to mammal meat that starts with a tick bite, and many doctors still don't know much about it. But we do. In a published 2021 case series, 121 of 126 patients with follow-up data (96%) reported their symptoms in remission.
How often do alpha-gal patients come in?
Alpha-gal patients typically come in every 3 weeks, and most visits take under an hour.
Do patients travel to see you?
Yes. Patients come from all over Georgia, Alabama and Florida.
