Affordable, effective acupuncture treatment in a peaceful community setting, convenient to Somerville, Medford, Cambridge and Boston Open Space is a community clinic designed to bring affordable, effective acupuncture to the heart of Union Square. Treatments are on a sliding scale of $20 - $40 per treatment, plus a one time $10 intake fee the first visit. No proof of income is required; you decide what you can afford. The affordable rates are possible because rather than treating in private rooms, we treat people in a shared open space. Each person gets individualized treatment customized to their needs. The atmosphere in Open Space is quiet/meditative, with many falling asleep once their needles are in. Community style acupuncture, where multiple treatments take place in one shared space, has long been the standard in Asia, and has become popular in the U.S. over the past five years. Patients appreciate the option of scheduling treatments together with their spouse, family, and friends. The sliding scale enables patients to come regularly enough to get better and stay better.
