Culturs Magazine Features our global project
Crossroads Acupuncture not only works in Las Cruces. Our non-profit is the center of an international acupuncture project serving underserved groups.
This week we are away from Las Cruces, and up on the Mescalero Apache reservation working with local community workers, teaching them how to set up their own clinics, in a technique called acudetox, or NADA ear acupuncture.
In this article by Rhonda Coleman, you'll meet some of these amazing acupuncture providers and teachers that are at the heart of our Barefoot Acupuncture Movement.
Mexico
Nancy Ortiz Gonzalez is our Latin American Coordinator who works on the border assisting people affected by violence, and migrants and refugees in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico.
“You must always help others with whatever resources you have to help. It doesn’t matter where they come from."
Africa
One of the projects that inspired Ryan to move to the borderlands and to train local workers here how to offer clinics like this is Megan Yarberry, who leads our projects in Africa. Meet Megan in this interview by Culturs Magazine in their summer issue, where you can read more about our global project.
“If I think about love as the unselfish and benevolent goodwill for one another, the Barefoot Acupuncture Movement's work is an expression of this. By sharing knowledge and experience with others, we hope they will be more resilient and autonomous, better positioned to navigate their own course into the future."
