			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="wpf_wrapper"><a class="print_link" href="">Print</a></p><!-- .wpf_wrapper --><p>Picture this:</p>
<p>A dimly lit, quiet room with beautiful music coming out of &#8230; somewhere. A bunch of recliners, with cozy blankets on each one of them. A door. A door that<em> closes </em>and on the other side of which you have left your cell phone. No one knows you&#8217;re there (unless you told them) AND it is 1 PM on a Tuesday.</p>
<p>Add to that a warm rice-filled pillow that you are invited to put behind your neck &#8211; or on your chest or wherever the heck you want.</p>
<p>Picture being invited to sit down and stay for a good while. While receiving an acupuncture treatment.</p>
<p>Welcome to <a href="http://www.skagitcommunityacupuncture.com/">Skagit Community Acupuncture, a </a>practice which is set up in such a way that it is sustainable for both the clinic and the patients.</p>
<p>Because the patients all share a room while they nap with needles poking out of their body, Dana and her partner Cheryl are able to keep the prices super affordable. In fact, their payment policy looks like this:</p>
<p><a href="http://lauralavigne.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Screen-Shot-2012-05-16-at-10.10.23-AM.png"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3665" title="Screen Shot 2012-05-16 at 10.10.23 AM" src="http://lauralavigne.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Screen-Shot-2012-05-16-at-10.10.23-AM-300x75.png" alt="" width="300" height="75" /></a></p>
<p>So that&#8217;s what I did, yesterday. I napped with strangers.</p>
<p>I highly recommend it.</p>
