History
Rochester Community Acupuncture opened in January 2009 as a way to offer an alternative to high costs of acupuncture in our community. Along with our colleagues at The People's Organization of Community Acupuncture (POCA), we work to employ, encourage, train and mentor licensed acupuncturists who wish to follow the Community Acupuncture clinic model, helping to make acupuncture available to anybody in the U.S. who is interested, regardless of means or insurance coverage.
Specialties
RCA is a Community Acupuncture (CA) clinic and is part of a growing international movement dedicated to providing affordable, accessible healthcare. CA is a social-business model that aims to increase patient access to acupuncture by offering individualized treatments in a quiet, comfortable group setting and fees on an affordable sliding scale without income verification. By doing so we offer the opportunity to receive treatment as often as needed to get phenomenal results, while engendering a warm community atmosphere amongst patients and staff. It's a winning endeavor for both patients and the clinic.
