What is Community Acupuncture?
Acupuncture has been a community based medicine for most of its long history. In Asia, acupuncture has traditionally been practiced in 
group rather than individual settings. For acupuncture to be most effective, patients need to receive it frequently and regularly — far more frequently and regularly than most insurance plans will pay for. As acupuncture has moved toward the mainstream, it has been forced into a paradigm of one-on-one treatments and high prices, which has decreased not only patient access but treatment efficacy.
Community acupuncture clinics represent a return to tradition. Community acupuncturists focus on using “distal” points (below the knee and elbow, and on the head and neck) so that patients can remain fully clothed during a treatment. Community acupuncture clinics often use recliners rather than treatment tables.
Why would I want a private room treatment?
Good question! For the most part, the effects of private treatment and one in a community setting are the same: pain is relieved, anxiety is reduced, digestion is aided and all the other good things you’ve come to expect.
However, there may be some good reasons for wanting a private treatment. For instance, it can be very soothing to be in a space that is only yours, knowing that you won’t have anyone moving around you, dropping their keys on the floor, etc. as you’re trying to relax. As well, with a private room setting, you will get more time with your practitioner than you do in a community setting.
And lastly, if you’re nervous about being treated in a community setting during this time (and that’s ok), our private room is a good alternative.
