Our front desk volunteer team helps with the day-to-day tasks that keep our Community Acupuncture practice running, building clean, comfortable and efficient, not to mention being the first face clients meet when they enter the space.
Especially for students of holistic health modalities, it is a great educational and community outreach opportunity to learn the behind the scenes details of how an accessible, inclusive and high-volume practice model operates!
This ultimately provides everyone with a comfortable and beneficial experience whether they serve or receive at Heart & Hands.
