Eastside Community Acupuncture

04/23/2020

An update to our campaign to Keep the Clinic open. Every penny raised goes to our rent so that the moment we are able we shall OPEN! Nothing is more fulfilling than being able to offer quality healthcare at a sliding scale to any and all that come through our doors. We hope to remain a place of solace and wellness for many years to come. We love you all!

Experience Wellness, Inc. is a non-profit whose mission is to increase access to complimentary and integrative medince for everyone. In March of 2019 we were delighted to open a sliding scale community-style acupuncture clinic on the Eastside of Santa Cruz, CA. Before we shut our doors ...

Community — we love and miss you all! It is our heart's work to support our SC families and individuals. We hope to get back to that in full bloom as soon as possible!

We have created a gofundme page (linked here) to help keep our doors open during these uncertain times. Any donation made will go directly to our clinic rent, so that when this is over, our doors may swing wide in WELCOME BACK to all who need it. Never before have we needed the immune and nervous system benefits of Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture more than now.

If you are able to help, thank you, from the bottom of our collective hearts. We are in this together Santa Cruz!

TOGETHER (but at a safe distance!) WE ARE RESILIENT!

Due to recent public health concerns over the coronavirus COVID-19, we feel it is best for our community to close the clinic for a couple of weeks.

Our hope is to be open again on Wednesday, April 1st.

We will miss seeing you all and hope you stay well.
Please reach out via DM’s if you have questions or would like to schedule a private appointment.

Have you seen our new website? It's simple, clean, and you can book all in one place. Of course, you can also just walk into the clinic during our clinic hours anytime you need treatment and support. We have been seeing some cold, flu, and seasonal allergies rolling through people!

Our best advice? GET AHEAD OF THE GAME! Prevention is key, regular acupuncture treatment (and maybe some herb recommendations) can keep you from ever having to deal with a full-blown illness this season. Come on in friends!

Our clinic has been popping with new patients who come back AGAIN & AGAIN because...

1) Our practitioners are excellent at what they do!

2) Our SLIDING SCALE allows them to come in regularly, getting the consistent treatment we all need to make headway with our health.

The Community model of Acupuncture is true to the roots of this medicine- in China folks are treated in communal settings, amplifying the group 'Qi' and keeping cost down.

Come in, get treated, bring a friend & BE WELL.

Sneezing much? Stuffy puffy face in the morning? Itchy eyes and ears and throat! Ah yes- Santa Cruz pollen season!

Allergies can drag you down in more ways than the simple sneeze, they actually activate your entire immune system which means: stress. So, if you are feeling allergic and curiously extra stressed or frazzled, don't get down on yourself. Your body is doing its best given the conditions.

AND, surprise surprise, acupuncture can help with that!

Coming in for treatment can help to 1) de-puff your face, clear your nasal passageways, and soothe your mucosal layers 2) modify your immune response and make you more resilient to external stressors! aka prevention!

So, walk on in for a treatment and allow us to help ease your symptoms. The clinic is open the following hours...

Tue & Thu 3-7pm
Wed, Sat & Sun 11-7pm
