Affordable Healing for Everyone

Are you seeking a natural, affordable way to restore balance, reduce pain, and improve your overall well-being? At Kicotan Acupuncture in Plattsburgh, New York, Community Acupuncture offers a unique opportunity to experience the ancient healing power of acupuncture in a relaxing group setting.

Unlike private acupuncture sessions, Community Acupuncture allows multiple patients to be treated in the same comfortable room—creating an atmosphere of calm, shared healing, and community support.

What Is Community Acupuncture?

Community Acupuncture is based on the traditional roots of Chinese Medicine, where treatments were given in communal spaces. The goal is to make acupuncture accessible and affordable while maintaining high-quality, personalized care.

At Kicotan Acupuncture, patients recline in zero-gravity chairs, surrounded by soft lighting, soothing sounds, and a peaceful environment. Each session lasts between 30–45 minutes, focusing on key acupuncture points that promote deep relaxation and healing.

What Makes It Special?

You share the healing space with others but still receive individualized attention.
Treatments are performed fully clothed, with points typically on the arms, legs, hands, feet, and head.
The energy in the room becomes collective—each person contributes to a healing atmosphere that enhances everyone’s results.

How Community Acupuncture Improves Health

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) views the body as an interconnected system. When Qi (energy) is blocked, illness or discomfort can occur. Acupuncture opens these energetic pathways, allowing your body to self-heal naturally.

In a community setting, this healing is amplified through:

Shared Energy: The group’s collective intention for healing magnifies each participant’s results.
Consistent Care: Because Community Acupuncture is affordable, patients can come more often—allowing conditions to improve faster.
Relaxation Response: The serene, meditative environment triggers your body’s natural healing mode.
