Hasina is now welcoming a few new clients in her practice! This is a rare occurrence, as she is normally fully booked. Hasina’s style is great for very responsive nervous systems with her gentle, grounded and co-regulating approach. So many of us could use this kind of care! Call or text 503-383-9555 to learn more or schedule an appointment. See below for more about Hasina. 🥰

~~~~

Hasina is q***r nonbinary, white, anti-zionist Jewish, and deaf/hard of hearing. Her approach to care work is rooted in three truths: that you know best what is happening for your body; that systems of oppression serve as primary causes of disease; and that medicine often participates in marginalization instead of uplifting and strengthening bodies, survival, and ways of being it doesn’t value or recognize.

Hasina’s style is gentle and incorporates bodywork as well as non-insertive acupuncture where that is preferred by the patient. She listens closely to the body’s own attempts to restore balance as a way to mitigate the blame and shame that can arise around challenging physical and mental/emotional experiences. Her goal is to partner with you in finding an approach that supports your agency and allows your nervous system to feel at ease.

Hasina works Wednesday-Saturday, 9:00am-4:00pm

I can’t pretend. Can’t witness this season of consumption without saying a few things.

We are not okay. And I mean all of us, collectively. Some of us know it and have known it. Many are just finding out.

Last week Zócalo was impacted by an attempted raid by la migra on one of our catering neighbors. The community stood up and stood strong. No one was kidnapped, thanks to all the goodness in the world. ’s volunteers showed up in force and those of us in the building connected and supported each other through it. Since then, people have volunteered their time to sit in our waiting area as an additional presence in case la migra came back. We were shook, but we were together in it, and continue to be.

As horrible as this was, it wasn’t even the only example of some level of systemic violence and manipulation I witnessed last week. It enrages me to see how hard it is to hold any kind of healing space in this system. We are at a tipping point, and our actions and intentions right now shape the world we will live in.

So, I can’t pretend that Thanksgiving is about generosity and family with a police state forming around us. I want more of the community I experienced and witnessed this past week and less of the fake peace and friendship of manufactured togetherness. There are too many lies to bear even one more. I refuse to lose myself in the gaslighting.

I am here with you. But let us be honest and let us be brave.

There is no Thanksgiving
There is no Black Friday
There is no new iPhone, TV or computer
Without genocide
Without la migra
Without police brutality
Without climate collapse

🏥 👩🏿‍⚕️ Open enrollment began on Nov 1 and will run until January 15th. This is the time when people who buy their own insurance plans from the federal marketplace can choose from available plans for the following year. Because of the passing of HB1 or the “Big Beautiful Bill” the federal government has stopped helping people pay for their health insurance so that they can fund tax cuts for the rich. This is why the democrats are refusing to fund the government right now: to demand we fund SNAP, support those who buy their own health insurance and reverse the cuts coming to Medicaid. Call your Senators to support funding healthcare and SNAP!

HB1 also made changes in coverage for gender-affirming care. To help navigate these changes Oregon created some new resources on the state website. We’ve updated our blog on how to find an insurance plan with all the latest links. Check the link in bio to access that.

Oregon also still mandates that every insurance plan originated in the state offers 12 visits for acupuncture per year. However, plan details vary widely and it can be hard to understand out-of-pocket costs due to the complexity of how medical insurance billing works. Our blog helps you navigate this terrain with information that even the insurance company won’t be able to give you. This is important to know whether you are buying your own plan or switching plans for any other reason. As always, we are happy to talk to you about any particular questions as you decide on coverage for 2026.

Help us welcome Judy DeHoogh to our team! She is a skilled and compassionate practitioner, and we are lucky to have her on board. She is now taking clients Monday mornings at Zócalo.

Judy has been practicing acupuncture in Portland, OR since 2019, and her work in East Asian medicine has become a meaningful way to deepen her connection with her mixed-race ancestry and Korean roots. Her path as a practitioner is shaped by compassion and a trauma-informed perspective, with the intention of creating care that feels safe, grounding, and restorative. Judy is dedicated to helping people feel more at home in their bodies, guiding each session with an emphasis on resilience, connection, and liberation.

Led by a deep belief in the power of community, Judy is committed to accessibility and inclusivity in her practice. She strives to create a welcoming environment where every person feels seen, supported, and empowered to take part in their own well being. Her work is grounded in the understanding that wellness is not just individual, but collective, and she is dedicated to cultivating spaces where both can flourish.

Treatments with Judy are always tailored to meet you where you are. Depending on your needs, sessions may include therapies such as moxibustion, myofascial release, gua sha, or cupping. Her treatments can be deeply gentle and supportive when that’s what your body calls for, while also offering more direct and rigorous approaches when appropriate—always with the intention of guiding you toward greater balance and ease.

Schedule with Judy on our website. Links in bio.

, .healing, Dianne and I had the privilege of attending the annual fundraiser last night at .

Seeding Justice bills its signature fundraising event as the social justice party of the year, and it really was. The crowd was beautiful, made up of all kinds of humans, all of them in some way on the righteous path of bending the arc of history toward justice. Philanthropy is rooted in the worst ills of this country, so to be in that room with people doing the best with the worst of history was incredibly inspiring.

From the Seeding Justice website:
“Ultimately, we believe that philanthropy shouldn’t exist. But until then, we are working for a better, more just and more equitable philanthropic model that’s based on trust, abundance, equal relationships, and collaboration.”

It also felt good to shake off some of the pandemic social cobwebs. We ran into quite a few old friends, and made new contact with folks where the connection had been stymied by the pandemic, like , who is always doing amazing work and who serves on the Seeding Justice board.

It was moving to feel the history in the room. That investments in community over time yield big results. was in attendance. She was one of the first grantees of the organization back in 1976! And now is a state representative holding down some great work for our state.

So many of these leaders have been working for health equity for a long, long time, specifically in the reproductive justice space. Their analysis, dedication, and community-building is truly impressive. The model of Seeding Justice as a channel of funds to community is personally encouraging. How can we at Zócalo do this in our own way for our communities? Not just by taking public and private insurance, but by finding new ways to use our space, continuing to create jobs for diverse practitioners, or even supporting students while still in school? I’m excited to continue exploring and feeling inspired by this question.

I’m so happy to introduce Chanelle Crosby (she/her), the newest addition to our team!

Chanelle will be seeing patients for private sessions starting May 24th, every Monday and Friday, 2:00pm-7:30pm. She can bill all the insurers that Zócalo bills: Regence, PacificSource, Providence, CareOregon OHP, Providence OHP, PacificSource OHP, OHSU OHP, as well as any other insurers as an out-of-network provider. Get in touch with any questions!

More about Chanelle:

Chanelle is a human who at the core identifies as stardust, but understands that she walks the Earth in a body that is expressed as a Black, mixed race, woman, with a tender heart, ancestral freckles, and a curious mind that loves to explore what it means to be alive.

Chanelle is inspired by living at the intersections of art, land, spirituality, liberation and medicine & what it means to be human through it all. She sees the human experience tied together by the web of Nature, our inherent interconnectedness, and our innate responsibility in service to others, ourselves, and all that is.

From her first experience, acupuncture made sense to Chanelle’s body. She was forever changed and wanted to learn how to create space for that with others. In a treatment space, her invitation is to take care, root into respect, honor dignity, embody radical curiosity, and move with fierce love.

Treatment sessions with Chanelle often contain more than one modality from her training in East Asian medicine, including acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, and craniosacral therapy and/or other bodywork approaches. Fascinated by the body and medicine, her interests include but are never limited to: womb work, the nervous system, digestive ailments, musculoskeletal pain, and problem-solving together.

Her approach is gentle, intentional, and curious. She truly believes the impact of care is widespread — from the personal to the collective. It is her pleasure to walk this healing path with you.

Outside of her clinical practice, Chanelle loves to spend time around plants by growing them, hiking around them, making herbal medicine, or dyeing fabric then stitching it together into art.

In Oregon, every insurance plan is mandated to have at least 12 acupuncture visits per year. What?! Yes, my friend, you read that right. And yet, it’s often hard to use those benefits. Often this is for one of three reasons: few providers take your particular insurance (read: the insurance company doesn’t want to pay us a living wage 👀), the plan requires authorizations for care that create barriers, or the plan passes through ridiculously high out-of-pocket costs on you as the member.

In answer to this problem we offer a la carte treatments at Zócalo Wellness. Like most clinics, you can schedule 60-90 minute private sessions that include acupuncture, bodywork, herbal consultations, and a number of other modalities. But, at our clinic you can also come in for an acupuncture-only group session, a 30-minute bodywork and cupping treatment, or a 20-minute herbal consult. This makes care more affordable and gives you options beyond whether or not something is covered by your insurance plan. Expanding care beyond insurance coverage also has other perks that I go into more in our new blog post. 🔗 in bio.

With this beautiful Portland sun and the blossoms exploding in color and scent everywhere, it’s officially spring and pollen season.

There’s no need to suffer, friends! You can do so much to lessen allergy symptoms by working with exposure and diet during this time. Adding herbs and other supplements, as well as early and regular acupuncture treatment, can also help to manage and even eliminate symptoms. Community acupuncture appointments are a great way to get in often and get a handle on the inflammation before it makes you miserable. My favorite herbal ally is nettles, which grows right here in the PNW! So often the remedies come right with the irritant.

For more info check out our blog with plenty of tips for allergy season. 🔗 In bio for that and our scheduler.
