Castlemaine Acupuncture Collective
Castlemaine Acupuncture Collective is a community-based acupuncture clinic offering accessible, affordable healthcare in a supportive group setting on a fortnightly basis.
Our model brings people together in a shared space, making acupuncture more affordable while creating an opportunity for connection, community and collective healing. Group acupuncture recognises that healing doesn’t always need to happen in isolation, that there can be something powerful in being cared for alongside others. We aim to make Chinese medicine accessible to more people, providing a welcoming space where you can slow down, receive treatment and be part of a community that values health, connection and collective wellbeing.
