Our mission is to provide acupuncture to as many people as possible at affordable rates in a cozy community setting. Our current definition of community includes: one acupuncturist, one front desk staffer, and over 6,000 patients! Sarah is the founder of WPCA. She received her master's degree in acupuncture from the Won Institute of Graduate Studies in 2010.
Since then she has given over 25,000 treatments to over 4,000 people! Community Acupuncture is Sarah's only acupuncture practice, she is a true blue believer. Read it here.

Does it hurt?
Not usually at all.
Most people feel relaxed or sleepy once the needles are in.
Some folks feel a pinch on some points while others don't feel a thing.
We are all different but acupuncture needles are much the same: solid, flexible, and about as thin as two hairs together.
How does it work?
Good question.
Technically we don't have a final answer.
Andy Wegman said it best - "Whether seen as a result of particular chemical/hormonal processes, movement of bio-electricity, vascular excitement, regulation of the central nervous system, connective tissue communication, 'placebo' effect, positive thinking, or the manifestation of qi, acupuncture works."
