Community Acupuncture

Community acupuncture sessions offer individualized acupuncture care in a peaceful, shared room treatment setting. Treatments are based on Traditional Chinese Medicine theory and diagnosis and are provided by a licensed practitioner. Cost per session is based on the individual's household income.

Rachel Lipton
(She/Her/Hers) Registered Acupuncturist

A community acupuncture enthusiast through and through, Rachel studied acupuncture in Victoria, B.C at Pacific Rim College.
