Experience the benefits of Community Acupuncture, Healing together. This approach not only makes treatments more accessible and affordable, but also enhances the overall therapeutic effect by creating a collective energetic field that can amplify individual treatments.

Community Acupuncture Vs Traditional Acupuncture

Community Acupuncture is the practice of treating groups of people together in a spacious open setting. This approach allows for cost-effective treatments, making it possible for you to receive care as often and for as long as necessary for recovery and maintenance of health. In such communal settings, treatments are typically limited to certain areas of the body, and less detailed discussions of personal or medical information during sessions. Best suited for stress relief, illness prevention, and to promote overall wellness.

Traditional Acupuncture is provided in a private setting, facilitating a one-on-one open dialogue with your doctor who will listen fully about your particular health concerns and tailor a treatment strategy to meet your individual needs. Best suited for chronic pain management, complicated health conditions, and addressing underlying root causes.
