Strength in Numbers, Strength in Healing


Have you heard of the "World's Largest Shared Acupuncture" experience? 

At Feel Well Acupuncture, we're proud to offer our very own (smaller) version of the shared acupuncture experience with our 


Strength in numbers has been seen time and again, both past and present.  Why can't the same hold true for acupuncture shared in a group setting?  The collective intention of healing can be profound.  If you followed the link above, you'll read one person's account during this very large healing fest. Because acupuncture is a holistic medicine, there are benefits for mind, body, and spirit.  You'll feel more relaxed, sleep better, have more energy, and feel less stressed to name a few.  

We've always loved the idea of community acupuncture because it allows acupuncture to be more accessible and available.  It simply brings people together.    Healing, experiences, laughter, support - all can be shared when people come together.  The name "Sama-Sama" is fitting because it roughly translates to "together-together" in the Filipino language.  

A little known fact about Sama-Sama is that the "World's Largest Shared Acupuncture" experience actually provided us with a little bit of inspiration when we first started our community acupuncture sessions.   Yoga mats instead of chairs?!  Brilliant!  We absolutely loved this twist from the norm.  Not only does it allow you to be open and ready to receive the healing energy around you (much like yoga's Savasana), but it's also a comfortable way to take a little snooze during your treatment. ;) 

To top off Sama-Sama, we chose to use the 5-Point Ear Acupuncture Protocol (from the National Acupuncture Detoxification Association)because it's simple, streamlined, and effective.  Thus, there are no barriers to treatment and the sessions also serve as an easy introduction to acupuncture.  More importantly we love seeing how people's lives can be transformed with acupuncture.  Believe it or not, those 5 little needles in each ear do wonders!

We love sharing this amazing medicine!


So if you want to experience group acupuncture for yourself, join us this Saturday, April 28, 2012.  Share this with anyone you like: friends, family, your neighbor, coworkers, whomever.  The more the merrier!

We create a safe and peaceful environment where you can relax and truly experience the power of coming together in the spirit of community and healing.   

 Details are below and more information is available on our website
