The Community Acupuncture movement is catching on nationwide. To learn more about community acupuncture and to find a directory of clinics, visit POCA (The People’s Organization of Community Acupuncture.)

Oakland Acupuncture Project is modeled after the Working Class Acupuncture clinic in Portland, Oregon. The Working Class Acupuncture website has more information.

Testimonials

  • Testimonial- Brian-Martin

    Oakland Acupuncture Project I just want to write a brief thank you to Roselle, Whitney, and Cait.  When I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy I was searching for any possible remedy for my ailment and was desperate for a course of action that was more proactive than just taking traditional Western medicine. I am so happy that I tried acupuncture (for the first time) and that your treatment immediately reduced my palsy. Your staff was very thoughtful and accommodating in regards to my numerous apprehensions I had with treating my facial paralysis. The Oakland Acupuncture Project was an oasis of hope, and results, and I can not thank you enough for your special attention.

                                                                                                                  Thank You Greatly,                                                                                                              -Brian-Martin Samway
