This community clinic will take place in the Arlington Studio.

Acupuncture is an ancient healing technique that uses our bodies’ own energy to access our innate abilities to heal ourselves. This is accomplished by using – among other techniques – tiny needles inserted into the skin and underlying tissue, to move Qi, our vital energy, through the meridians in our bodies.

In most settings in the west, acupuncture is performed in a private room, much like when one receives a massage. In community acupuncture, many people are treated simultaneously in one large room. This is the way acupuncture is administered in most places in the east. By treating patients in a community setting, more people can be treated in the same amount of time, and costs can be greatly reduced, thus making this type of medicine more accessible to more people. Because the acupuncture channels give us access to the core of the body, points on the arms, legs, and head can be used for treatment, and there is no need to disrobe.

During this community clinic patients will choose from one of two treatments: one to reduce stress, or one to boost energy. Wear loose, comfortable clothing so that we can easily access the points we need.

Sessions will last 30-minutes, and are limited to three people per session. Choose one of the 30-minute slots starting at 3:00, 3:30, 4:00, 4:30, or 5:00, and devote that time to your personal healing needs.
