Pick a goal or a condition, and we’ll show you who’s good at it.
Getting started
Three steps, that's it.
Find someone good
We hand-pick every practice on KeepCare and write up what they actually do, so you can tell them apart in a minute.
Book your visit
Book straight with the practice, on their own system, at their own price. KeepCare is free for you.
Make it a habit
Most people go a few times over a few weeks. That's when it starts to feel like upkeep rather than a fix.
Why KeepCare
Acupuncture is a routine, not a rescue.
Acupuncture places fine needles at specific points to cue a response from your nervous system. It works best not as a rescue but as a standing hour that keeps stress, aches and bad sleep from piling up. Like a standing yoga class.
For the everyday
Stress, sleep, energy, the tension you stopped noticing. Go before it builds up.
For the stubborn stuff
Migraines, back pain, rough cycles. Staying ahead of it beats chasing each flare.
Backed where it's backed
We cite the research on every claim, and say plainly where it is thin.
FAQ
The basics
How much does acupuncture cost?
It varies a lot by practice. First visits are longer and usually cost more than follow-ups, and many practices price a course below the single-visit rate. Every practice lists its own pricing on its page, so you can see the real number before you book.
Is acupuncture covered by insurance?
It depends on your plan more than on your insurer, so it is worth checking yours. Medicare covers acupuncture only for chronic low back pain, up to 20 visits a year. Many acupuncturists are cash-pay and will give you a superbill to claim back yourself, and visits are usually HSA or FSA eligible.
Medicare.govDoes acupuncture hurt?
The needles are about as thin as a hair, nothing like a shot. Most people feel a small pinch at most, then spend the rest of the hour somewhere between relaxed and asleep.
How many acupuncture sessions do I need?
Usually a course over a few weeks rather than a one-off. Your practitioner maps out a plan at the first visit, based on what you came in for.
How do you pick the practices?
By hand, one at a time. We look at each practice ourselves and add the ones we'd send a friend to.
Is KeepCare free?
Yes, free for you. You book straight with the practice and pay them directly.
