Community acupuncture is a model of care that makes acupuncture more accessible by offering personalized treatments in a quiet group setting. At Rooted Rose, community treatments take place in a shared space where you can relax in a comfortable recliner while receiving care.
The goal is to lower financial barriers that often prevent people from seeking acupuncture care. By treating multiple people in the same room, we’re able to keep costs down and offer a sliding scale—so more people can access consistent and effective care.

Treatments typically focus on the arms and lower legs, using a channel-based method that involves placing needles distally - away from the area of pain. This is an approach which allows us to address a wide range of concerns, without having to needle on or near the site of concern.
-
We use a sliding-scale model rather than fixed pricing. This allows patients to choose an amount that feels sustainable for them.
New Patient Scale: $45–$75
Returning Patient Scale: $35–$65
You don’t need to explain or justify the amount you choose.

When you arrive, you'll enter directly into the treatment room. Please be mindful of your volume and take a seat in the waiting area. When ready, your practitioner will invite you to have a seat in one of the recliner chairs, then do a brief health history and chat with you about your concerns.
As treatment begins, you’ll be helped into a recline position and encouraged to rest your eyes or take a little acu-nap. Most people tend to rest for 20 to 30 minutes, but please don’t hesitate to let us know if you’re ready to have the needles removed at any point. Altogether, you can plan to be here, in the clinic space, for about an hour.
After treatment, it’s very common for people to feel lighter, a little sleepy or just more relaxed.
