Dear Dr. Hebert:

 

I am writing to you to inquire about your acupuncture and acupressure services. I have never had acupuncture performed on me before, and I hope that my first experience with the ancient art will help me greatly. I am a very stressed person. I worry about the smallest things. Did I remember to do my laundry today? Did I put the dogs out before I left for work? What’s that floating in my soup? These things nag at me all day until all I want to do is go home and die. Quite frankly, they have been hindering my performance at work. “Your performance is hindering!” my boss tells me all the time.

 

I have heard from many people that you are one of the best, if not the best, specialist in your field. I hope to utilize your services to alleviate my stress and worrying. However, I have a fear of needles. I won’t even go near them. I had to be strapped down for my last tetanus shot. Does acupuncture hurt? Because you’ll be sticking needles into me, and it sounds like it’s painful. And I need to know whether the needles are clean, or if you reuse them right away, because I can’t be getting another tetanus shot. I won’t go near the doctor’s office – I’d rather risk infection than get a shot. So I need you to use clean needles, please.

 

Thank you, and I hope to hear from you soon. I will require your services in the near future.

 

 

 

 

 

Sincerely,

 

Kevin Dickinson
