Sliding Scale Clinic

Help! Community Acupuncture is going away!

As you may know, Common Ground Healing Arts has been providing community acupuncture in Charlottesville for 14 years, and we have been proud to be amongst the practitioners who serve there. Sadly, the funding has simply not been there to sustain this valuable institution, and March 27th will be their last day in operation. While we cannot make up anything like the four days that have been available there, we do have some options. In April and May, Jess Croes will be running a sliding scale clinic at our practice on Saturday mornings. Beginning June 14th, Gryphon will take over this clinic. This will be a little different from the community clinic in that you'll get 20 minutes of individual attention rather than just 15, and be in a private room. Space is limited, but we will do our best to cover as many Common Ground patients as possible.
