Treatment in a group setting is common in China to keep the cost low so it is possible to receive frequent, and thus more effective, treatment. The clinic uses a sliding scale for all patients, based on what each person is able to afford. The scale is $20.00 to $35.00, plus a $10.00 paperwork fee for the initial visit.

Testimonials

Life is Energy and so the Community Acupuncture Clinic has given me my life back.
In April 2005, I was hit by a car traveling 50 mph from behind while I was riding a bike to work.
All the drugs to control my sciatic nerve pain resulted in a dysfunctional energetic system and lots of side affect problems. Through acupuncture at Community Acupuncture Clinic, my nerve pain is under control (or virtually gone). My nausea has diminished completely, my intestines returned to function, and best of all, my inner energy levels have risen so I am one again a functional being.
For many years I visited Samhitta Jones for acupuncture each time I caught a virus and was continually amazed at my quick turn around back to health. Today, I am ever more amazed to experience my recent change from a painfully lagging body to my energetic self again.

I have suffered from severe menstrual cramps ever since I can remember, with pain so intense that I used to call in sick to work a few days out of every month, and then spend my day lying in bed, nauseous with pain. Nothing seemed to help. But after a few months of combined acupuncture and herbal therapy, my pain has subsided to the point where I can function normally. Instead of continuing to cover up the problem with painkillers, I feel like my body has been eased into a real and positive change. When I saw Mary this week, I was able to say "My last period was great! Really Easy".
I have to admit that I have always been somewhat skeptical about the effectiveness of herbs, but twice this year I have actually been able to prevent the onset of a cold through prescribed herbs and acupuncture treatments. While everyone in my office shared an illness and passed it back and forth, I was able to escape without getting sick at all
Acupuncture is usually expensive, and I never thought I could afford enough treatments to see an impact. However, the Community Acupuncture Clinic's sliding scale made it possible for me. Having access to acupuncture has had a genuine impact on my health and on my life.
