What is different about the Cross Currents Clinic?

Cross Currents Clinic offers high quality acupuncture with affordable rates in a respectful community setting. The model of care that we use is different from most acupuncture clinics in the West; however, this is the way acupuncture has been practiced throughout China and Asia for centuries. In our practice, we use recliners and treatment tables spread around a large, quiet room where individual treatments occur with a number of other people receiving acupuncture nearby. Acupuncture does not require you to disrobe, but you are encouraged to wear loose fitting clothing or bring a change with you. There will be a room provided for you to change. Many of the most effective points are located on the limbs or in areas that can be accessed with the clothes on. Treating in a community setting has many benefits. It makes it convenient for friends and family to come for appointments together. Each member of the group contributes to the energy in the room, and this group energy helps facilitate everyone's healing.
