The above link will take you to various videos about American community acupuncture. There is a video of some patients from Working Class Acupuncture in Portland, Oregon, talking about the benefits of acupuncture and community (American for multi-bed) clinics in particular. There is also a recording of Lisa Rohleder of WCA lecturing the local acupuncture college on the benefits that the community acupuncture business model offers to patients and practitioners alike. Plus some shorter clips about different clinics and practitioners in the States.

www.workingclassacupuncture.org - an inspirational multi-bed clinic in Portland, Oregon, USA, run by the equally inspirational and straight-talking Lisa Rohleder and associates. From this site you can download WCA’s free e-book Love Your Micro business: Marketing a Community-Based Acupuncture Practice.

Also, if you haven’t already read Lisa’s book The Remedy: Integrating Acupuncture into American Healthcare, get a copy immediately by logging on to www.lulu.com. Although it discusses the peculiarities of American healthcare, its message makes universal sense and reminds us what acupuncture really is for. Have a copy on the shelf for moments when it all seems too much.

www.communityacupuncturenetwork.org is WCA’s bugle by which they promote and support multi-bed (they prefer the term “community”) acupuncture clinics in the US, and is the inspiration for Affordable Acupuncture UK. We have a lot to thank these guys for. There’s also loads of links to other writing by Lisa.
