@lioness, Like so many other services, acupuncture charges probably differ depending on the locale, individual practitioner and length of each session. However, both the orig. chiropractor/acupuncturist and current one charge less than an office visit to a traditional doc and about the same as what my dental hygienist charges. After the first retired, I called the current one to ask her charge and it was similar to what I pay for an hour massage.
