Welcome to Orem Community Acupuncture! Affordable Acupuncture $25-45 sliding scale. You decide what you want to pay (plus a one time $20 new patient intake fee)
3/24/2020 - We have so many new patients, and until someone called to ask me yesterday, it didn’t occur to me that if you’re just looking at us on Facebook or our website, you might not be aware…. WE HAVE MOSTLY PRIVATE ROOMS. We do have one large community room downstairs, but all of our other rooms are private. There is room in each for you, and an extra reclining chair in case you want to bring a friend or spouse to watch or “give you support”…. but…. we are able to be open during this craziness BECAUSE everything is clean and private. Come and see us!!
Our goal is to make Chinese medicine accessible to more people by making it truly affordable. We want you to come often enough to really get better, and the sliding scale is our way of helping you make that commitment. The clinic is modeled after clinics in China, where patients are treated in group settings. This means that:
- People relax in recliners in a quiet, comfortable common room.
- In most cases, it’s not necessary to remove any clothing.
Be sure to check out our facebook page often for articles on acupuncture topics and symptoms! See us at:(https://www.facebook.com/OremCommunityAcupuncture)
What you should know before your treatment:
Make sure you’re not hungry, wear or bring loose comfortable clothing (make sure that we can access from your knees to your toes, your arms, neck, etc.) and …. PLEASE let us know if you are pregnant or trying to be, taking blood thinners, on medication for high/low blood pressure, or under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol – all of that is great, we just need to know.

Not all acupuncturists are created equal! What should you know before you choose an Acupuncturist? Acupuncture has over 3,000 years of clinical history, and is one of the most holistic medical systems available today. Acupuncture has no inherently dangerous or troublesome side effects. Americans make around 15 million visits to acupuncture practitioners per year. Acupuncture is one of the fastest growing modalities in the United States and more and more health and medical practitioners are jumping on the bandwagon.
That said – A qualified/licensed acupuncturist has accrued well over 3,000 hours of acupuncture and Chinese medicine education, which is between three and four years of additional schooling. Unfortunately, more than 50% of those performing acupuncture in the US have less than 300 hours of acupuncture training.
WHAT OUR PATIENTS SAY -
D.M. – We love Dr. Sellers, he has helped both of us so much. He is friendly and very helpful in explaining procedures. We highly recommend him! He has helped with my husband’s restless leg syndrome, and my after surgery needs and headaches.
I. R. – First time trying acupuncture.. Can I just say, AMAZING. I’m hooked. Loved the results, location is great, awesome staff. Highly recommend it!
M. F. – These guys are the best. I always come away feeling much better. I first went for a sore lower back – one application took care of that – and I keep coming weekly just to feel better in general and relieve stress. Pat knows exactly how to take care of the little aches and pains, like my previously-dislocated sub-talor (heel) bone, the index finger knuckle that is all swollen from repeated injuries over 5 decades, my football damaged shoulder. It always works. Kristi is fantastic – like the laid-back flower child I’m sure she was back in my day, and so patient with my mental lacunae. The term, “salt of the earth” was coined to describe Kristi and Pat Sellers.
E. E. – I just have to tell you that you are amazing! You worked wonders on my husband’s shoulder. We cannot believe the mobility he has and how much BETTER it is. I came in for stress relief and that worked like a charm, but what you did for my husband is AMAZING! Seriously, you’re the BEST!”
M. M. (age 87) – “I had been having severe headaches for a year and had seen a headache specialist. The Dr. was wanting to give me shots in my neck. I had success with acupuncture in the past and decided to try that. After five treatments, my headaches went away completely for several months, and I only occasionally have minor headaches now, nothing even close to the severity of the earlier headaches. I will definitely have more acupuncture, as I am convinced this has worked better than anything my headache specialist tried. Orem Acupuncture offers great service in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere! They are also very affordable–especially for someone on a fixed income. I am so grateful I found them!”

OUR SERVICE ANIMAL POLICY: Because we regularly treat people with asthma and significant allergies, we are unable to accommodate your service animal in our clinic.
The ADA and Utah law allows a public accommodation to exclude your service animal if it poses a direct threat to health (as in asthma and allergies), and safety (for example, if your dog is barking and/or snapping at others). Under the ADA, a service animal is a dog that has been trained to perform tasks or do work for the benefit of a person with a disability. The tasks or work the animal does must be directly related to the person’s disability. Examples of service animals that must be allowed into public accommodations under the ADA include:
- hearing dogs, which alert their handlers to important sounds, such as alarms, doorbells, and other signals
- guide dogs, which help those who are blind or visually impaired navigate safely
- psychiatric service animals, which help their handlers manage mental and emotional disabilities by, for example, interrupting self-harming behaviors, reminding handlers to take medication, etc.
- seizure alert animals, which let their handlers know of impending seizures, and may also guard their handlers during seizure activity
- allergen alert animals, which let their handlers know of foods or other substances that could be dangerous (such as peanuts)
The ADA does not include “emotional support animals” (animals that provide a sense of safety, companionship, and comfort to those with psychiatric or emotional conditions). Although these animals may have therapeutic benefits, they are not individually trained to perform specific tasks for their handlers. Utah law specifically excludes animals who are used solely to provide emotional support, companionship, comfort, well-being, or crime deterrence. Neither the ADA nor Utah’s disability law cover these support animals.
