What is Group Acupuncture?
Group Acupuncture, also known as Community Acupuncture, is held in an open room with typically about five people being treated at any one time. This allows for patients to receive care in less time and for a lower price. Because it's in a group setting, you remain sitting and fully clothed. The issues most commonly treated during group sessions are addiction, pain, and stress.
Who should try Group Acupuncture?
Anyone who's interested in acupuncture is welcome. Give it a try if you have any health concerns, whether it's something that's developed recently, or an issue that's been bothering you for years. Group sessions are a great way to experience acupuncture in a shortened timeframe, and for less money. The convenience and lower cost makes frequent treatments possible for more people. Bring your family and friends and get treated together!
