Community Spotlight: Octagon Community Acupuncture

Is your body feeling the effects of stress, too much time at a computer, or just modern life? Acupuncture is a proven treatment a lot of people find helpful, but it can get expensive with repeat visits.

Hi, I'm Tanja Odzak, Realtor with eXp Realty, introducing Octagon Community Acupuncture in Oakland's Temescal neighborhood.

Ananda, a licensed acupuncturist and co-owner, explained community acupuncture this way: treatment happens in a relaxing group setting, which keeps it affordable enough for people to come in more often and see better results. Octagon runs on a sliding scale from $25 to $50 per treatment, and the most common reasons people come in are stress, anxiety, insomnia, and immune support.

I'm Tanja Odzak, and I love spotlighting the local businesses that make this community what it is. If you're curious, Octagon Community Acupuncture is at octagonacu.com.
