Community Acupuncture

Acupuncture is not typically a one-time solution, and achieving significant clinical results may require regular sessions, especially in the initial stages of treatment. Community acupuncture is a method of delivering acupuncture treatments in a way which prioritises patient accessibility and affordability. This approach involves treating multiple patients simultaneously in a spacious, open setting.

Although you’ll be sharing the space with others, the comfortable recliners are adequately spaced apart, ensuring privacy and minimal disturbance from neighbouring treatments. Soft music is played to foster a tranquil and calming atmosphere.

A Community Acupuncture session costs $50 per session.

If you have private health fund you will be able to claim instantly with HICAPS, making the out of pocket cost of treatment even lower.

We have 4 comfortable recliners spaced out in a large and relaxing opening space. Appointments are made 20 minutes apart to allow patients one on one time with the acupuncturist before relaxing into the treatment. All patients receive an hour long treatment.

In our clinic we predominantly use points in the lower legs, arms and head so no need to worry about removing any clothing. Please however come wearing loose fitting clothing so Dr. David may easily access knees and elbows.

Community Acupuncture is a streamlined style of acupuncture to facilitate excellent (and in the case of pain) often immediately discernable changes. 

One-on-one acupuncture treatments provides the opportunity to include additional applicable techniques such as body work (Tui Na), cupping, guasha, auricular acupuncture, infra-red lamp (heat therapy) in addition to acupuncture. Dr. David offers one-one acupuncture and herbal consultations outside Community Clinic hours. 

Further, one on one acupuncture offers patients more time for greater depth of discussion about your health complaint, diagnosis and treatment strategy.
