Private vs. Community Style Acupuncture
Private
In a private acupuncture session the patient will have a private room with one table. It is a full hour session where we devote more time to the intake, treatment, and body work (tui na, moxa, cupping, or gua sha).
Community
In a community clinic setting patients will be treated in a large room with 4 zero gravity reclining chairs. The treatment time is still an hour, but a little less time is devoted to the intake and there is less opportunity for extensive bodywork. This structure is designed so that patients can get good care at a low cost. Patients often ask if the treatment is “less” of a treatment because it is in a group setting. The answer is no. The points I chose in a community clinic would be the same as the points I choose during a private session.
The community acupuncture clinic at Practice Space is Pay What You Can.
Everyone has different reasons for choosing private acupuncture or community style acupuncture. Cost is usually the main reason. However, some people prefer being treated in a group setting while others feel more comfortable in a private space.

It's a practice that cultivates more understanding about what is not yet consciously known. It can help people experience life more fully. Here is more information about its many benefits.

Somatics with Kristen
KRISTEN WATERS | she/they
Kristen offers somatics from over a decade of an embodied personal practice. As a body-oriented modality, Kristen holds space for you to curiously explore a connection to how your body speaks it’s mind, offering support for your nervous system in the renegotiation of trauma.
Cultivating a trust in your mind-body connection can lead to more choice in stressful moments when you find yourself under pressure, and I look forward to joining you in this exploration. Sessions with Kristen can look like somatic practices toward stabilizing the nervous system, building regulation skills, mobilization for stuck parts of trauma, support in boundary work, movement exercises and supportive touch.
*Please see our events page for info on monthly group sessions.*
