Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic?
We aim to make acupuncture accessible to people at all income levels and cultural backgrounds. We are a clinic member of POCA, the People's Organization of Community Acupuncture, a multi-stakeholder co-operative whose mission is to make acupuncture affordable and accessible to as many people as possible. You can visit pocacoop.com to learn more about POCA and join as a patient member.
Most US acupuncturists treat patients on tables in individual cubicles. This is not traditional in Asia, where acupuncture usually occurs in a community setting. In our clinic we primarily use recliners grouped in a large, quiet soothing space. Treating patients in a community setting has many benefits: it’s easy for friends and family members to come in for treatment together; many patients find it comforting; and a collective energetic field becomes established which actually makes individual treatments more powerful. In some styles of acupuncture, the needles are removed after only a few minutes or after a half hour at most. The style of acupuncture we practice at PCA allows patients to keep their needles in as long as they want (depending on how busy we are -- it’s a small clinic), and the “right” amount of time varies from patient to patient. Most people learn after a few treatments when they feel “done;” this can take from twenty minutes to a couple of hours! Many people fall asleep, and wake feeling refreshed.
