FAQs

  • Yes! I sometimes send people home from the office wearing point magnets. I also recommend doing the treatments at bedtime, and sleeping with the magnets on. Just peel them off in the morning.

  • Peel the center off an unused page of tape, then peel the magnet off the used tape and place in the center of the unused tape. It will be ready to go for your next treatment. Be sure to order a new packet of magnets when you get down to your last page of fresh tape.

  • If you can get more than one use out of the adhesive, go for it. It will vary depending on the amount of natural oil on your skin or the amount of moisturizer you use.

  • You can wipe them with an alcohol swab, or warm water on a cloth if they become oily from your moisturizer. Be sure to let them dry completely before putting them on fresh tape.

  • That depends on how you feel. A spokenpoint treatment every day to manage symptoms is safe and reasonable. For some people, twice a week, once a week or once every two weeks will be the right rhythm. You can use spokenpoint treatments when symptoms arise, or regularly as part of a restorative care routine.

  • There are several reasons why an in-person acupuncture treatment will differ from a spokenpoint treatment. First, your in-person treatment will take into account your personal constitution and any other variables that contribute to your symptoms. It is a customized treatment for the snapshot of you that is showing up in the moment. The other reason is that Trace sets up her treatments based on Meridian-Style acupuncture which is a little different than the Traditional Chinese Medicine approach.

  • Don’t worry. Always trust the sensation when you’re torn about the proper point placement. Also, the surface area of the point-magnet is almost 100 times the point of a tiny acupuncture needle, so close counts in this case.

  • Yes! You can simply order a packet of point-magnets, or use gentle contact with your fingertip to activate the properties and functions of the points.

  • Yes. Points are universally genderless.

  • Yes. The magnets are safe and painless for use with children and infants. Be sure to remove the adhesive and magnets immediately after use when doing treatments on infants and children. It’s okay if their attention fades during the meditation portion of the show. AND we are coming out with short, sweet treatments just for children.

  • Yes. But set aside additional time to rest afterwards. Each point will ask the body to execute 3-6 functions, so more points means more “work” for the body to perform and a lot of “work” might cause fatigue or what is sometimes called mild healing crisis.
