Oakland Community Acupuncture

Our Mission

At Oakland Community Acupuncture (OCA), we are driven by a deep belief that health and well-being are fundamental human rights accessible to all. We established our practice in 2007 with the vision of making high-quality, personalized acupuncture care affordable and accessible to a diverse community. As a community-based clinic, we believe in fostering a welcoming and supportive environment where individuals can connect with others on their wellness journeys.

Our Approach

Our approach to acupuncture is rooted in the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, where the body's energy, known as Qi (pronounced "chee"), flows through pathways called meridians. When Qi becomes blocked or stagnant, it can manifest as physical or emotional disharmony. Our skilled acupuncturists utilize thin, sterile needles inserted at specific points along these meridians to restore the free flow of Qi, promoting balance and healing.

Beyond traditional acupuncture techniques, we offer a range of modalities tailored to address diverse needs. We specialize in internal medicine, sports medicine, gynecology, fertility, aging, and pain management. Our therapeutic approach considers the whole person, recognizing the interconnectedness of physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. We take the time to listen attentively to each client's unique concerns and develop personalized treatment plans to achieve their desired outcomes.

A Dedicated Team

Our team of compassionate and experienced acupuncturists brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to OCA. Each practitioner has undergone extensive training and certification, and they are dedicated to providing the highest standard of care. Beyond our clinical expertise, we cultivate a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere. Perla, our office manager, greets every client with a warm smile and ensures a smooth and efficient experience.

Beyond Acupuncture

At OCA, we believe in empowering individuals to take an active role in their health. We offer educational resources and workshops on topics related to acupuncture, wellness, and holistic living. One such resource is our blog, which features insightful articles written by our practitioners, sharing their expertise and guidance on various health concerns.
