Our mission is to provide high-quality, accessible holistic healthcare and education in an effort to cultivate long-standing relationships between highly trained practitioners and the community that are socially and economically just. We began Five Point Holistic Health in 2014 as five acupuncture students who were disappointed by the lack of group acupuncture practices in Chicago.
We needed jobs and the idea of starting a private practice felt isolating and expensive. We were also struck by the fact that we couldn't even afford our own medicine, as we didn't have insurance coverage for acupuncture, and private sessions typically cost between $80-$150. We decided to pool our resources and open Five Point: a worker-cooperative with the mission of providing quality, accessible holistic healthcare.

Acupuncture
Report
Acupuncture is an ancient East Asian technique of inserting fine needles into the body in order to help improve normal physiology and treat ailments. The needles encourage blood and lymph flow, activate the immune system, and regulate the central nervous system. All treatments are customized to address the unique conditions of the individual client.
Herbal Medicine
Report
Herbal medicine is the combination of roots, mushrooms, shells, fruits, seeds, and other natural substances to create unique blends to heal ailments. An herbal medicine regimen allows for an individualized treatment that is a part of the patient's daily routine, helping to speed up the healing process of most conditions and reducing symptoms.
