Top Rated Local® is pleased to announce that Beachside Community Acupuncture is the number one acupuncturist in all of Texas for 2019!

When you want quality acupuncture in a relaxing environment and at an affordable price, you want Beachside Community Acupuncture in Dallas.

Beachside Community Acupuncture has received almost 150 reviews on five verified sites with an average rating of 4.95 stars, earning them a perfect Rating Score™ of 100.00 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for being ranked the number one acupuncturist in all of Texas!

Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“From start to finish, this was a fantastic experience! Kathleen has such a calming presence about her. She’s also so informative about the whole process and what to expect. The environment is also calming as well. There are salt lamps in various spots, which I liked since we have them at home. The space is a shared space with others. It’s very quiet, and there is calming music as well. You have up to an hour to chill once the needles are put in. Kathleen has a great touch, so none of the needles really hurt. I already feel pretty good. I want to definitely go back!” – Tiam L.

Not Your Average Acupuncture Clinic

We wanted to know what makes Texas’ number one acupuncture clinic so special, so we took a few minutes to talk with the owner, Kathleen Ellerie.

The first question we had for Kathleen was what makes Beachside Community Acupuncture unique compared to their competition in Texas. Here’s what she had to say:

“While we are located in landlocked Dallas, our clinic is all beach-themed, so patients listen to ocean waves for an hour during their treatment and enjoy feeling like they’re on vacation. Also, because we’re a community clinic, our treatments are in a group setting, which makes healing more of a shared community experience, even though patients aren’t interacting with each other (Many take a nap!). Of course, the low cost of treatments is another big draw for people, as they can come in for acupuncture as often as they need and adjust what they pay on our sliding scale accordingly.”

We also asked Kathleen about Beachside Community Acupuncture’s mission and how they work to make the world a better place. Kathleen told us:

“Our mission is to provide quality acupuncture at an affordable rate in a relaxing and refreshing environment.”

She went on to add:

“Our values are that every individual should be his or her own health advocate; that the path to health shouldn’t be a secret; that everyone should have access to affordable holistic medicine; that the beach can heal aches of the body, mind, and soul; and that it is our duty to preserve beaches for future generations. To that end, we donate 10 percent of our profits to marine conservation.”

Building Success by Putting Patients First

When we asked Kathleen what their secret is to such a strong online reputation at Beachside Community Acupuncture, she said:

“We always put our patients first. Beachside is a community clinic, which means we offer treatments on a sliding scale so that everybody can afford to have holistic care. Natural medicine can be expensive, and our patients truly appreciate that we give them the option of choosing how much to pay for their treatments based on their own personal health budget because they are able to take care of themselves without causing extra financial stress. We treat everyone the same, regardless of their circumstances, and take the time to really get to know a patient’s health to offer the best acupuncture treatment and appropriate advice on lifestyle, diet, supplements, herbal medicine, and/or essential oils based on his or her needs. Additionally, a lot of our new patients have never acupuncture before, so they really appreciate that we make them feel relaxed, listened to and that the whole process is easy and calming.”

Apart from building the kind of online reputation any business would envy, Beachside Community Acupuncture has spread the word about their service through their informative website, blog and social media accounts, which give people an idea of what they’re all about. Kathleen went on to say:

“Offline, we also get a lot of new patients from referrals. We create a really great patient experience at the clinic so that people love to tell their friends and family about us. Finally, we also network in the community, especially as a member of the Holistic Chamber of Commerce Dallas. Through this nonprofit, we build relationships with other healthcare providers so that we have resources for our patients and can give confident referrals for other therapies within the field of holistic medicine.”

She added:

“Expanding is on the horizon for Beachside Community Acupuncture.”

Every business owner wants to grow their business and build their online reputation the way Beachside Community Acupuncture has. Here’s Kathleen’s advice for them:

“If you provide a great experience for your patients, clients and/or customers, they will be appreciative and want to help your business grow by giving referrals and reviews. Make it easy for them by letting them know which type of reviews will help, and share the reviews that you have to make more of an impact.”


Congratulations to the team at Beachside Community Acupuncture for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Kathleen, for taking the time to speak with us!
