Stouffville Community Centre is committed to providing the highest quality healthcare experience possible. We strive to make acupuncture an affordable healthcare option for everyone.
Community Acupuncture is a sliding scale service that involves treating patients in a group setting. A group setting treatment is often used by acupuncturists in the East. Community acupuncture clinics treat patients in a group setting with patients on recliners and tables. The patients need not undress; they simply roll up clothing to their elbows and knees The group setting allows the community acupuncturist to see multiple patients and keep the treatment fees low. Most North American acupuncture clinics treat in a spa-like setting with patients on tables and in individual rooms. Average rates of a single acupuncture session in these settings ranges from $55-95. Here at the Center, our patients loves to be pampered and we dont have any problems to fullfill there needs. We provide individual bed and private setting.
At Stouffville Community Centre, you have your own space,that gives you a chance to heal faster because we can tailor treatments and have acces to many accupuncture points that we could not if you were in a group setting. In a Community Acupuncture Centre , The sliding scale would also enable patients to come in frequently. The frequency of treatment is often related to faster and better result. The aim of community acupuncture is to make acupuncture accessible to people with lower income or those not covered by insurance.

What is Acupuncture:
Acupuncture is a non-invasive, painless treatment that works at the neuro-muscular level to stimulate the bodies ability to release endorphins, our natural pain killers. Acupuncture treatments also increase the bodies immune system and seratonin (our happiness hormone) levels. An increase in stimulation to an area of pain triggers the bodyto heal that area by sending fresh blood flow and proper cells to heal the dysfunction.
