I was thrilled to discover Harvard Square Community Acupuncture.  They express the ideal of community by making acupuncture affordable with a sliding fee and using communal rooms where you nonetheless feel a great sense of privacy and serenity.  The atmosphere is calm and soothing.  I have been treated by two of the acupuncturists, who were real experts, with deep knowledge of the human body, as well as deep compassion.  I recommend it wholeheartedly.
