Spring Celebration 2026

On the right a photo shows Ren giving acupuncture to a patient in a recliner while other people recline in the background in our peaceful group treatment room.

We believe everyone deserves real options for their health. Since opening our doors in 2018, Boston Acupuncture Project (BAP) has given acupuncture to over 1,900 of our neighbors. We keep our sliding scale as low as possible, to make acupuncture more accessible for more people. We work with local organizations and small businesses to bring acupuncture to them.

We ask the community to support our clinic with our Spring Fundraiser, which runs until May 31st.

To wrap up our fundraiser, we invite you to join us at our annual Spring Celebration community wellness event. FREE healing offerings include:
