Sangha Community Acupuncture

if you are looking for the best, you’ve found it. Kate is a gifted practitioner who always makes me feel better, my back and knees are very much improved. The space is serene so of course I feel relaxed. It doesn’t get any better!

After one session, I’m an acupuncture convert. Kate has a calm presence and takes a generous amount of time to evaluate your health history. I didn’t even feel most of the needles as she inserted them. Soon after my visit, I had a remarkable centeredness and, most importantly, my nasal passages were clear for the first time in over a week. I was also able to buy some lovely — and effective — aromatherapy blends.
Going forward, Sangha will be my go-​to place center for healing. Who knows? It could also be yours.

Kate is awesome. I went to her consistently for acupuncture for about six months. She is welcoming and kind. The rate you pay is totally worth it. The space is open, welcoming, peaceful, and clean. If you live near here I highly recommend you make an appointment! Kate is a skilled healer who really cares about people.

Sangha ‘s space is peaceful and as a result, it is a place of healing energy. It has been set up to duplicate the Chinese idea of charging lower rates so that it’s easy to return for enough treatments to promote health. Kate is a sensitive skilled acupuncturist who genuinely cares for her patients. The soft black leather recliners make it easy to relax and be treated. It is not rushed or quick. Instead you are given the time needed and it provides time for introspection. This is someone to seek out.

I was quite a skeptic about acupuncture… until Kate fixed my circulation, then worked on my diabetes now under control and helping me lose the stress to sleep properly. At this newly-​opened space, people can do a community approach: 4 chairs, one room, mellow lighting and either use the music/​white noise mixed in with the quiet presence of city sounds or bring an ipod (I use ambient music from iTunes radio). IN this open space, unlike a private thing, I felt «aware» of stuff but when I asked how long I was there, it was 35 minutes and felt like 15. I drove home calm, and slept without pain, awaking today refreshed, ahead of my alarm, and… good.
This location is 2 doors from Cityprovisions and across from two restaurants, a small gallery and around the Ravenswood area; a walk-​around would be wonderful in spring, but this being winter, parking is close and free.
You will NOT have results with one visit. It takes a few to see if, indeed, it can work, but for me, it does. Circulation, pain, stress, and just about anything that can be fixed, can be fixed. Listen, learn what to adjust, move inward. Profoundly, I am not the same person that I was without it; it has moved my spirt and willingness to shut up and listen. A half-​century and finally, I’m meeting my own mind and body.
This old skeptic is a livin’, breathin’ believer.
