What is Community Acupuncture?
Community acupuncture is a business model for acupuncture clinics that wish to provide affordable acupuncture. The People’s Acupuncture of Asheville is a proud member of the Peoples Organization of Community Acupuncture (POCA), which is an organization networking community acupuncture clinics around the world. We believe community acupuncture is a revolutionary way of providing health care and making it accessible to anyone in need. We are committed to our patients and to expanding the field of acupuncture.
