TREATMENT CONSENT AND RISKS

What is Acupuncture? Acupuncture is a form of therapy in which fine needles are inserted into specific points in order to create neuro-physiological reactions in a body and stimulate a healing effect. Is Acupuncture safe? Acupuncture is generally very safe. Serious side effects are very rare- less than 1 per 10,000 treatments. Does Acupuncture have side effects? You need to be aware that: Drowsiness can occur after treatment in a small number of patients, and, if affected, you are advised not to drive. Minor bleeding or bruising occurs after acupuncture in about 3% of treatments. Existing symptoms can get worse after treatment (less than 3% of patients). You should tell your Practitioner about this, but it is usually a good sign. Fainting can occur in certain patients, particularly at the first treatment. In addition, if there are particular risks that apply in your case, your Practitioner will discuss these with you. Single-use, sterile, disposable needles are used in this clinic. It is our duty to inform you of any risks associated with our treatment techniques. Some therapy techniques such as therapeutic massage, joint manipulations, traction, chiropractic, moxibustion and cupping have a very slight risk of causing injury. A remote possibility of injury to structures such as but not limited to: nerves, bones, muscles, ligaments, discs, or arteries exists. Research evidence indicates that skilled cervical (neck) manipulation is safer than taking anti-inflammatory medication and these techniques are among the safest for treatment of musculoskeletal complaints. In very rare circumstances (less than 1 in 2 million), damage may occur to the vertebral arteries in the neck and the patient may suffer a stroke. There is a small risk that treatment may produce pressure on nerves going down the arm or leg. Electro-physical agents such as ultrasound or interferential therapy have been linked to minor burns and abnormal skin reactions. Acupuncture and the above listed techniques can occasionally cause temporary local swelling, bruising or transitory increases in the levels or distribution of pain or other symptoms. In very rare cases acupuncture has been reported as being associated with bodily infections or collapse of lung. Allergic skin reactions to massages oils, strapping tapes, acupuncture needles, or topical applications are a possibility. A follow-up consultation is required if you still experience discomfort after 3 days. Following the verbal explanation of my examination results and the therapeutic techniques the therapist and/or Practitioner thinks suit my present condition, I understand the risks and give my consent to treatment. I have the right to decline treatment that the therapist and/or Practitioner offers me at any time. I have the right to a second opinion at any time. Annie Tiang TCM would not be liable should you seek western treatments for follow-up appointments. I give permission to the therapist and/or Practitioner to exchange information with my other Doctors and other medical specialists when necessary. I understand that this information will be PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL. I HAVE READ THIS FORM, UNDERSTAND THE INFORMATION IT CONTAINS, AND GIVE MY CONSENT TO TREATMENT.
