Community Acupuncture Joins Us in Our New Space!

Hawthorne Community Acupuncture with Eva Zeller starts in September

When she’s not doing acupuncture, Eva can often be found with her dog, Greta, at the park around the corner from the Studio.

Eva will be seeing clients at the new Philly Community Wellness/Learn Reiki Philadelphia space Saturdays and Mondays 10am-1pm beginning in September.  She will honor the accepted standard sliding scale of the Community Acupuncture Network-just $15-35 per treatment with additional $10 paperwotk fee for your first visit.  Treatments take place in a comfortable group environment-bring your friends and family members with you!
