serving veterans since the beginning



We have been working with veterans since before our clinic opened and we love working with them for so many reasons — one of which is because Mallory’s grandpa was in the service for many years and, like many veterans, he now lives with chronic pain and is left with few options for pain relief. The Veteran’s Health Administration (VA) provides acupuncture visits through their community care program, which we are a part of. If you are a veteran, or know a veteran, read below to see how you can get visits with us at no cost to you!
