The needles we use at BCA are tiny, and we’ve practiced gentle needling a LOT (132,000 treatments and counting).

When we place in the very first needle in a brand-new patient, they almost always say:“That’s it?!,” with noticeable relief.

Different schools of acupuncture practice needle placement and stimulation differently. Here at BCA, we choose a gentle approach. And it works great. And then most people drift off into lala land while the needles direct the body to start healing.

We’re happy to make the whole experience as comfortable as possible, from sound machines to nice music, from a soft blanket and pillow to gentle needling. And besides all that, we’re pretty confident you’ll feel better after acupuncture. We’ve got you 💙

On May 27, 2009, a tiny community acupuncture clinic was born in San Diego’s Ocean Beach. Six years later, bursting at the seams, we renovated the Pt. Loma space to help us grow 💙.

We’ve treated more than 18,000 people, and provided well over 100,000 treatments.

The clinic somehow weathered a pandemic, on top of the ups and downs that come with a social business.

Thank you so much for your support over the past 15 years. We appreciate you all 💙💙💙

This is one of the very most common things we treat at Beach Community Acupuncture… tight, stiff neck and traps. It’s so common to carry tension in this area, and so rewarding to release it with tiny needles.

Inflammation is designed for good. It helps your body’s immune system respond to illness or injury. If you fall and hurt yourself, for example, the area may swell, turn red, and feel hot… then anti-inflammatory cells flow into the area to start the healing process.

Sometimes, however, inflammation occurs when it shouldn’t. Autoimmune disorders are a good example of this. Take rheumatoid arthritis (RA). After years with this condition, joints are swollen, red, and painful. Here, inflammatory cells are attacking healthy tissue.

Lots of us are living with chronic inflammation, at least at some level.

Causes include: chronic stress; excess visceral fat (fat around the organs); diet high in processed foods, to***co use, alcohol use, and poor sleep.

Chronic inflammation can contribute to heart disease, lung disease, GI diseases, depression, anxiety, Alzheimer’s disease, and even certain cancers (partial list).

One of the most important mechanisms of acupuncture is its anti-inflammatory action (you can read all about how acupuncture reduces inflammation in links below).

Other methods of reducing inflammation are largely lifestyle-related (like changing diet, giving up vices, and exercise).

So, take good care of yourself, and don’t forget routine acupuncture. We’re happy to help!

In just 20 years, Americans have dramatically increased their use of alternative therapies, with acupuncture listed in the top three, followed by yoga and meditation.

The New York Times did a piece on this on 2/2/24, after JAMA published their findings.

In 2002, fewer than 1/5 of us (19%) were employing these therapies. In 2022, the number skyrocketed to 37%. That’s a huge surge in only 20 years.

We can attest to much greater mainstream acceptance of our work among MDs and other Western medical providers. They’re encouraging their patients to use acupuncture, and referring to us at higher rates every year.

We’re looking at a sea change, a tipping point. The body of research is growing, patient use is growing. As people experience the benefits, they speed the word to their providers, family, and friends, and the cycle continues.

Here’s a excerpt from the New York Times:

“It’s become part of the culture of the United States,” said Richard Nahin, the paper’s lead author and an epidemiologist at the National Center of Complementary and Integrative Health, a division of the National Institutes of Health. “We’re talking about the use for general wellness, stress management use, sleep, energy, immune health.”

Come on in and get acupuncture. As always, we’re happy to help.
