When you are in the clinic please remember that you are in a community resting and healing space. We have come up with some house rules to help make sure everyone has a pleasant experience. Besides the above mentioned items it is also great to arrive on time, keep rustling to a minimum, be respectful to other patients and practitioners, and remember that the acupuncturist is there to treat and hold space for everyone in the clinic.

Alameda County Community Food Bank Needs Your Help!
With SNAP benefits (food stamps) due to expire on Nov. 1st, and many federal workers in Alameda County going without paychecks due to the government shutdown, ACCFB has seen a 117% increase in calls to their helpline over the last week. They are calling on their community to help out, and we are answering that call by running a food drive through our clinics. Check out Evelyn’s blog for more information on why and how we made this decision: https://oaklandacupunctureproject.com/2025/10/support-our-community-with-oap/

You can also donate in one of the following ways:

1. Donate Virtually! This is ACCFB’s preferred donation method, as every $1 donated is worth $7 of food. Even as few as $5 would be amazing!! https://donate.accfb.org/vfd/oaklandacupunctureproject

2. We will also have bins out at both clinics to collect physical food donations throughout November. Please see images about what types of donations are appropriate and desired. Also, please no expired food, nothing in glass containers, and no sweets, candy, sodas, or alcohol related products.

We do treat children at OAP and SAP provided that they are able to sit quietly during their treatment. Children should be accompanied by an adult. Some caregivers bring books or DVDs to occupy kids during treatment. 15 minutes with the needles is usually plenty of time for a younger child. For very small kids we often just do a quick in and out with the needles or use point stimulating “ear seed” stickers instead of needles. We find that kids who want to receive treatment usually do fine; if your child is frightened or just isn’t interested in treatment it is probably better to wait until they are older. Kid appointments are booked the same way as those for adults on our online scheduler:

Once the needles are placed it is normal to feel any of the following sensations: tingling, warmth, itching, a slight ache, movement of energy, or a feeling of heaviness. These sensations can happen where a needle is placed, or sometimes you feel these same sensations where no needle has been placed, which is even cooler. If any sensation becomes uncomfortable at any point during the treatment just let us know and we will gladly move it.
