See a qualified practitioner for treatments that activate pain-killing pathwaysPhiladelphia Community Acupuncture is a community acupuncture clinic in West Philadelphia. We provide acupuncture in comfortable group settings. Our sliding scale is $15 - $35. You decide what you can afford. The purpose of our sliding scale is to separate the issues of money and treatment; we want you to come in often enough to really get better and stay better! We understand that everyone's situation is different, and our primary goal is to make acupuncture available to you as often as you need it.
We aim to make acupuncture and wellness resources accessible to people at all income levels and cultural backgrounds. We are a part of a movement to create social change in American health care called Community Supported Acupuncture (CSA), a model that empowers patients, builds community and breaks down class divisions. Acupuncture can be part of the solution to the soaring cost of healthcare - if it is affordable and accessible to everybody. Philadelphia Community Acupuncture helps make this possible.
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: We have signed a lease on a second Philadelphia Community Acupuncture clinic -- coming to Mt. Airy in late March! The address is 538 Carpenter Lane, right near Weaver's Way Co-op. This website will serve as the website for both locations, so stay tuned! We are super excited!
