At Anodyne Community Acupuncture, treatments take place in a quiet group setting with each person seated in a reclining chair. By treating many people at one time, costs can remain low ($30-$50 per treatment), friends and family can be treated at the same time and, most importantly, more people in the community can benefit from the therapeutic effects of acupuncture.
