Community Acupuncture
The community model makes it possible for us to provide our patients with more affordable and frequent treatments. We use a sliding-scale payment system, designed to increase acupuncture accessibility. So, instead of there being one set fee linked to the service, there is a range of payment options to choose from. Our sliding scale for community acupuncture is $35-65 sliding scale, plus $10 for your initial consultation. Pay what you can, no questions asked .
* Community acupuncture treatments are given in recliner chairs. Our group treatment room is a quiet, open-concept space where patients receive treatment concurrently. The treatment room contains four zero gravity chairs equipped for people in larger bodies, up to 500 lbs. .
Join our community acupuncture sessions, where you can unwind in a tranquil group setting at a budget-friendly rate. The sliding scale for first timers is $45-75 and return visits are $35-65.
Acupuncture treatments are given while patients recline in an open treatment area on comfy zero-gravity chairs (which have a weight capacity of 500lbs).
Acupuncture has a calming effect; most people tend to close their eyes, relax and often drift off a bit.
Please note: During these group sessions, all patients will remain fully clothed.
We encourage you to wear loose fitting clothing (or shorts and a t-shirt) so we can access your arms and legs.
Private Acupuncture
We offer private acupuncture sessions on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. This is a great option for anyone interested in one-on-one care or treatment modalities such as:
* Cupping Therapy- application and movement of glass cups which improves circulation and lymphatic flow
* Electroacupuncture - application of electrical stimulation to acupuncture needles
* Tui Na - acupressure massage
* Gua Sha - soft tissue manual therapy
* Moxibustion - warming treatment in which mugwort is lit and applied on or near the surface of the body (usually in areas of pain)
Treatment costs: initial consult and treatment is $130, return treatments are $100.
We provide private acupuncture sessions on heated treatment tables, similar to massage therapy beds.
Private acupuncture treatments are a perfect option for addressing complex concerns and generally allow for more time with your practitioner.
If appropriate, we can add cupping therapy, tuina (East Asian massage techniques), guasha, and/or electro-acupuncture to your treatment.
Please note: Individuals looking for acupuncture directly on their neck and back will want to schedule a private appointment, as that is not possible in the group setting.
