Timeline photosA little over a year ago we published our map of Community Acupuncture Clinics Around the Country. This past January we worked on a yearly update of the list, seeing which clinics had moved, closed, changed prices, etc. Our jaws dropped when we saw that, according to Google's metrics, our map has over FOURTEEN THOUSAND views!! We truly can't believe it. We're so happy our little side project has reached and hopefully helped so many people and fellow community acupuncture clinics.Since starting the map in January 2022...- 20 new clinics have been added- 22 clinics have closed or switched to doing all private treatments- 43 out of 50 states (plus D.C.) have at least one clinic- PHILADELPHIA leads for most clinics (eight) within a single city!- and everyone say, "hi, Kansas!" - this year we welcomed Kansas onto the map!With 277 clinics total, 200 community and 77 hybrid, we hope to keep bolstering the community acupuncture community for years to come.[image description: A map of the United States with 277 black and grey location markers in the shape of a heart all over it. Map legend: Community = community treatments only (black marker). Hybrid = community and private treatments (grey marker.) 14,515 views!]#WestPhillyCommunityAcupuncture #WPCA #WestPhilly #Community #Acupuncture #CommunityAcupuncture #Resting #RestAsResistance #Naps #Napping #NapsRequired #MasksRequired #CommunityAcupunctureAroundTheCountry #NapsAroundTheCountry #PHILLY ...

What does “sarana” mean?

Sarana is a Pali (ancient Buddhist) word for refuge. It can stand for retreat but also for the haven of supportive community. We chose this name to emphasize our intention for our clinic to be a safe space and acknowledging our shared humanity and interdependence.
