SIX DEGREES HEALTH
WORK EXCHANGE PROGRAM
Six Degrees is currently seeking applicants to our Work Exchange Program. Participants of the Work Exchange Program receive Community Acupuncture treatments in trade for their labour. One weekly four-hour shift earns you a one-hour community acupuncture treatment valued at $75. For professional service such as graphic design, we trade with workers at a negotiated rate based on their professional fee. We especially encourage people of colour, Indigenous Peoples and trans folks who could benefit from our work exchange program to apply. All practitioners are registered and certified to practice in Ontario. We acknowledge that our healing-based practice occurs on contested Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe First Nations land.
Six Degrees Health is seeking applicants who are:
- Willing to make a six-month to one-year commitment to a regular weekly shift
- Able to work daytime, afternoon or evening shifts
HOW TO APPLY
1. Please complete the application form
2. Email your application and résumé to [email protected] or drop off your application and résumé 204 Spadina Avenue, 2nd floor
For enquiries, please email [email protected] or call 416-866-8484.
We regret that Six Degrees is not currently wheelchair accessible. Our clinic is located on the second floor of a building without an elevator. There is one step from the sidewalk to the building’s front door, and a flight of 11 steps to our clinic. If you need assistance, please contact us.
We offer two all-gender washrooms. The smaller washroom is accessible to folks using canes and similar assistive devices. The larger washroom in the back of the clinic is accessible to folks using folding/non-folding walkers.
We use light blocking curtains in our front lobby and clinic during daytime hours; and we maintain low lighting during evening hours. Clients are welcome to use provided eye masks and earplugs while receiving treatments.
We ask clients not use scented products and respect our fragrance-free space but the clinic is not entirely scent free as we do use moxa and sage or other medicines to smudge.
