We are experienced practitioners who practice a style of acupuncture that mostly uses "distal" points to treat problems anywhere in the body - meaning we will probably treat pain in your back by placing tiny needles in your hands and feet. Most patients sit in comfortable recliners and relax (usually sleep!) in our large treatment room for as long as needed.
We want you to be able to receive acupuncture regularly enough and long enough to get better and stay better. We want our community to be welcoming to all different kinds of people. We want to give you the tools to take care of your own health so that you will not need to rely on corporations like Big insurance or Big Pharmaceuticals for costly, high-tech interventions.
Research in the United States (as well as thousands of years of tradition in Asia) has shown that acupuncture is most effective when it is done frequently and regularly - once a week is usually the minimum required to make progress on any kind of health problem.
We strongly believe acupuncture can be part of the solution to the soaring cost of healthcare - if it is affordable and accessible. St. Pete Community Acupuncture makes this possible.
