Community Acupuncture
Please note our new Monday Hours: 3:30-5:30 PM
Our practice is based on the principles of providing effective and affordable acupuncture treatments to the Fort Lauderdale community. We believe that this ancient and powerful healing system should be accessible to everyone.
In our Community Acupuncture room, we treat people in recliners and zero gravity chairs in a quiet and soothing healing environment. Treating patients this way has many benefits. Family members and friends can come in together for treatment. Many patients find that community acupuncture decreases the sense of isolation that often comes with illness. And, pehaps most importantly, a kind of “collective energy” happens which makes individual treatments more powerful.
Treatments are $40 for a single treatment and $35 of you buy a card for 5 treatments or 30$ for 10 treatments. There is a one time new patient fee of $10. The total duration of the appointment is approximately an hour.
Acupuncture is the most beneficial with regular use and the effects are cumulative. That is why we are offering the 5 and 10 treatment cards. We want to encourage acupuncture treatments on a regular basis. Acupuncture helps the body maintain and restore health in many ways, including:
- It helps to reduce stress by helping shift the body from the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight, stress) to the parasympathetic nervous system (rest, relax, digest, heal)
- It enhances blood flow
- It stimulates the body’s built in healing mechanisms through nervous, immune and endocrine system activation
- It relaxes shortened muscles thereby reducing pressure on nerves and other structures and increasing blood flow
- It releases natural painkillers and it reduces the intensity and perception of chronic pain
Some of the conditions that can be treated with community acupuncture are:
- Acute and Chronic pain
- Substance abuse recovery
- Smoking Cessation
- Allergies and Immune System Disorders
- Autoimmune Diseases
- Anxiety and Depression
