Village Acupuncture Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation doing business as Philadelphia Community Acupuncture. We are committed to providing affordable and effective acupuncture treatments in a comfortable group setting. Our sliding scale is $20-40. There is a one-time new patient fee of $10. 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 are SO excited to share this fundraising campaign! Over the past couple years, Coalicion Fortaleza Latina Pennsylvania and Philadelphia Community Acupuncture have been partnering together in a variety of ways.
Our latest project has been taking Community Acupuncture directly to the Spanish-speaking immigrant community in Montgomery County, removing as many barriers to care as possible.

Services
Philadelphia Community Acupuncture operates on a sliding scale of $20-40 with a one-time new patient fee of $10.
We treat people in a group setting, in comfortable recliner chairs where treatment times are usually around 45 minutes.
Most US acupuncturists treat patients on tables in individual cubicles.
This is not traditional in Asia, where acupuncture usually occurs in a community setting.
In our clinic we primarily use recliners grouped in a large, quiet soothing space.
Treating patients in a community setting has many benefits: it's easy for friends and family members to come in for treatment together; many patients find it comforting; and a collective energetic field becomes established which actually makes individual treatments more powerful.

If your child is developmentally able to remain seated quietly for a brief period of time (typically 20 minutes for most children), all of our acupuncturists will be glad to see them in the Community Treatment Room.
We find that many children, beginning around 9 years old, are able to be treated in this manner.
Of course you know your child best!
