Sebastopol Community Acupuncture - (707) 823-2217

We are a low-cost community clinic providing Acupuncture on a sliding scale of $20-$40 per treatment. Our mission is to make Chinese medicine available to all.

Most US acupuncturists treat patients on tables in individual treatment rooms. This is not traditional in Asia, where acupuncture usually occurs in a community setting. At Sebastopol Community Acupuncture we use recliners, clustered in groups 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 in our clinic allows patients to keep their needles in as long as they want, and the “right” amount of time varies from patient to patient. It’s up to you and your body. Many people fall asleep, and wake feeling refreshed.

We practice a style of acupuncture which mostly uses points in the hands, feet and head to treat problems anywhere in the body – meaning we will probably treat pain in your back by placing tiny needles in your hands.

Is acupuncture effective?
Yes. Chinese medicine is the oldest continually practiced form of medicine in existence. It has been practiced in Asia for thousands of years. The World Health Organization has said of acupuncture: “the sheer weight of evidence demands that acupuncture must be taken seriously as a clinical procedure of considerable value.”
