Wailuku Community Acupuncture opened it's doors
in December 2015 and became a 501(c)3 non-profit
in June 2016 under the name
Lapa’au Community Acupuncture,
however, for the time being we continue to utilize our original name.
Our community centered approach allows patients to access the powerful, therapeutic, preventive and palliative benefits of acupuncture and herbal medicine. We benefit the public by providing extremely low-cost health care services for people from all walks of life and all income levels.
We believe that regular access to this type of care, can reduce the incidences of chronic diseases, relieve chronic pain and resolve symptoms of illness when they arise.
