Tucson Community Acupuncture provides high quality acupuncture treatment at affordable rates in a supportive community setting. We practice a style of acupuncture that mostly uses “distal” points in the hands, feet and head to treat problems anywhere in the body—meaning we will probably treat pain in your back by placing tiny needles in your hands. 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.
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! The table below contains suggested guidelines for what you might pay depending on your income; HOWEVER, 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.
