Price

Backyard Healthcare Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation doing business as Tucson Acupuncture Co-op. We are committed to providing affordable and effective acupuncture treatment to the community of Tucson in a comfortable group setting.

Our sliding scale is always $15 – $35. There is a one-time new patient paperwork fee of $10.

You decide what you can afford. The purpose of our sliding scale is to separate the issues of money and treatment; we want you to come in often enough to really get better and stay better!

We understand that everyone’s situation is different, and our primary goal is to make acupuncture available to you as often as you need it.

Location

We are located at 204 E. Fort Lowell Rd. (one block east of Stone Ave.). The clinic is on the southeast corner at Estrella Ave.

There is plenty of free parking in our lot and on Estrella Ave., and we are ADA accessible.

If coming from I-10, take the Miracle Mile exit and head East.

We are easily accessible by bus or bike (route 19. 34. 6 and the 6th Ave./Fontana Ave. bike route) and we have a bike rack!

Updates

A warm welcome to Cate Maxon, newest acupuncturist on staff at TACO! Cate just moved back to Tucson from Portland, OR where she trained at POCA Tech, a community acupuncture school. She’s excited to be back in town and the Sonoran desert, where she has deep family roots. When Cate is not at the clinic, she enjoys spending time rebuilding a touring bike, working on her ole Toyota truck and is continually questing for the best porches and tacos in town. She will be on the schedule on Tuesday evenings, Friday afternoons, Saturday mornings, and Sunday afternoons.

We are sad to report that Brent Thompson is no longer working at TACO. We will miss him dearly and wish him all the best in his next endeavors.
