Acupuncture can treat anything from depression, anxiety, any kind of pain, digestion, sleep issues, and chronic conditions to also providing overall support for general well being. People can expect to rest anywhere from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on what your body needs and what you are comfortable with. Come experience this simple, yet powerful medicine with community and as an addition to being surrounded by the coast and forest.
Please bring a whatever you need to relax (blanket, mat, cushions). Please dress in comfortable layers and be prepared to roll up pants up to knees and long sleeves that roll up to the elbow and to remove socks and shoes for treatment.

- How long do I stay? Depends. At least 30 minutes is recommended but listening to your body’s needs is most important. Sometimes people fall asleep and sometimes they don’t, but what is most important is that they relax.
