Community Supported Acupuncture has gone through so much growth in the past few years, with new staff and providers, and a brand new location in the heart of the city. Beginning Jan 1, 2025 we will be introducing some changes in pricing. We have not raised our rates in almost 8 years! The sliding scale philosophy remains: you have control over how you budget - you can pay what you are able in order to receive the number of acupuncture treatments that will help your unique health concern. The sliding-scale allows all of us to be able to contribute to our community's health, and those that are able to pay at the higher end of the scale generously allow for folks to benefit from our free group treatments. I hope this warms your heart as much as it does ours :)

First-time acupuncture visits will be $75-$150. Follow-up acupuncture will be $60-$125, and we are also offering a special package of 4 treatments for $200! As always, every Friday we continue to offer free (donations accepted but not required or expected).

We all look forward to serving you in the new year!
Warmest wishes,
Mateo, Julie, Juliana, Rita, Jordyn, and Mittens
