If you're reading this, let know why we should win in the

Founded by neighbors already working to confront health inequities, we opened Boston Acupuncture Project (BAP) in a historic Hyde Park storefront in 2018. BAP is currently the City of Boston’s only dedicated community acupuncture clinic, and the Commonwealth’s only nonprofit community acupuncture clinic.

Acupuncture is a low-risk, evidence supported treatment for physical pain and mental health. Community acupuncture is offered in a group setting. Benefits of sharing treatment space include lower prices, the ability for friends and family to be treated together (often less intimidating for first-timers), and an atmosphere of infectious relaxation.

Ever catch someone else’s yawn? That’s what group treatment is like. The collective energy in the treatment room can make individual treatments more powerful.

For seven years, we've offered sliding scale community acupuncture. We now have a Pay It Forward Fund for those who can’t afford our regular sliding scale of $30-$60.

Our acupuncturists have provided over 9,500 treatments, including more than 400 free sessions.

BAP is ready to strengthen its infrastructure and expand capacity to deliver accessible, community-rooted healthcare.

Ear seeds are small, round seeds or balls applied to the outer ear with medical tape, used for auriculotherapy. Auriculotherapy is the stimulation of specific points on the outer ear to benefit health! Ear seeds are a form of acupressure.

Join us at Boston Acupuncture Project next Thursday, October 16, from 6-7 PM. We'll learn about Ear Seeds for Stress in a new class taught by Dr. Angela Jamal. Register soon - the class is almost full.

Both ear and body acupressure and acupuncture can be used to support mental health as well as physical health. We're available for community acupuncture 5 days a week and sell ear seeds, too.

🏘️ Community acupuncture means many people receive treatments in the same room. This lowers costs per person and increases availability of appointments. The group can also boost the power of each person's treatment! Your treatment is always customized, based on what is going on for you.
