I was a loyal client here for many years and truly valued the professionalism and care I once…read moreexperienced. This place meant a lot to me. Over time, however, it felt like the management style, particularly at the ownership level, shifted. Communication became inconsistent, and situations that once would have been handled directly and professionally were not. This was not reflective of the front desk team. Many of the therapists I connected with moved on. My most recent experience simply was not the right fit. I did not feel fully heard, and the session felt more rushed than mindful. After the session, there was no follow up or check in at all, which has never happened in any of my previous experiences here. I was tired of bouncing around, so I gave it time to see if things might improve. In the end, she agreed it was not the right fit. What was most disappointing was how it was handled. It took several calls, emails, and texts from me to learn that my sessions had been canceled less than 24 hours before my next appointment. The front desk told me the owner was supposed to call me about the cancellations and to suggest an alternative therapist, but that call never happened, and there was no follow up afterward. There was also a brief moment that stood out. I had left more than 20 percent, though less than the week before because the experience felt different. When I shared that, it was suggested that the front desk might not have passed the full amount along. That surprised me, as the front desk team has always been consistently kind, professional, and trustworthy. I want to be clear that the front desk staff are excellent. They make scheduling seamless, communicate thoughtfully, and create a welcoming environment every time you walk in. I am writing this because I cared about this place. I used to genuinely look forward to coming here. Moving on feels like losing something familiar, almost like losing a friend. I would still welcome a one on one conversation with the owner, as I would have appreciated that before. I hope the practice finds its way back to what once made it so special.

She just has such a loving presence. We had a great chat at the beginning, a hands-on Reiki session and a nice debriefing at the end.

This was a great first experience with a Reiki.

So, I'm a Skeptic…read more Just that kinda person. I generally don't like medicine that I can't trace back to anatomical reality (I get exasperated talking about Chi and other untestable, unmeasurable concepts). So I obviously didn't go to Acupuncture to get my chakrahs back into balance or anything like that. I have a pretty nasty back injury that gave me a fair amount of pain and tough ciatica (look it up). I've been doing PT, and I've been healing quite nicely (I'm not going ton a "Western Medicine is Useless!" rant today), but I'm not a very patient person. I wanted to see if I could do some pain management beyond medication, for obvious reasons. I went to see Lisa because my mother's friends (who are much more... spiritually oriented) have given me sufficient anecdotes that I decided I'd give it a try. Anyway, disclaimer aside. I enjoyed the visit. Lisa is a grounded, rational person that actually talks about medicine and the body. There's a little bit of "energy flow" stuff going on that I managed to not get frustrated about--in short, at the end of the conversation I was pretty convinced she knew what she was talking about. Then with the needles. Afterwards, I felt significant improvement. I have a lot more relaxation in my back and leg, the ciatica's gone down. I'm walking around without a cane, which is a fair improvement. I'm quite pleased with the treatment. Over the next few days, I'll be updating as to my progress. I'd recommend Lisa for an alternative approach to pain management stress, musculoskeletal or nervous problems, definitely. I will continue to hold out on the mystical cancer-healing powers of heat lamps and small needles until I've seen better science on the topic.

I cannot say enough good things about Tracy Revett…read more I have been seeing Tracy on a weekly basis for a year and a half now. To put it simply - she is incredible. Last year, Tracy treated me throughout my entire pregnancy, and it made many of the difficult symptoms so much more bearable. I completely trusted her to perform treatments that were safe during my pregnancy. Since she specializes in Japanese style acupuncture, which his less "invasive" and gentler than the Chinese style, I never had any concern. I always left the table relaxed, more comfortable and pain-free, qualities which were invaluable during that time in my life. This year, I've been seeing her for stress-related ailments (par for the course when you're a new mom!), and she's helped to bring me so much relief, both physically and mentally. Tracy is extremely knowledgeable about her craft and imparts her knowledge with patience and clarity whenever I ask her questions, especially about any of the interesting tools and techniques she uses (e.g. moxibustion, bear warmer, cupping, etc.). She is also a wonderful listener. I honestly feel like I receive a therapy session during my treatment. She is so down-to-earth, honest, open and loving. She really is a joy, and I look forward to seeing her every week. It is telling that even when I don't have a particular ailment or issue to be addressed, I still make appointments with Tracy. I do this because I always leave her office happy and extremely calm. My visits with Tracy are the only "me" time I get from my busy life, and they beat a spa treatment or massage any day. Tracy can attest to this - every time she completes my treatment and says "Okay, Stephanie, you're all set" (my cue to get off the treatment table), I yell out "No!!" while laughing. I just can't bring myself to leave. If she'd allow me to, I'd stay on that table all day long. You will not be disappointed if you go see Tracy. In fact, I can guarantee that you will soon be one of her "regulars."

We were both very satisfied with our experiences. Caitlin is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and skilled. Acupuncture is one of the few treatment methods I felt comfortable using during pregnancy.

I appreciated that she had the flexibility to treat me at the office or at home. She even taught me how to use moxibustion on myself so I could keep up with treatment between sessions. After treatment from Caitlin, both of our symptoms cleared up. We wouldn't hesitate to seek treatment from her again.

The studio is on the third floor of a building and shares bathrooms with the other tenants of the building. That was the only real negative of the experience. A dirty semi-public bathroom. There is some initial paperwork before your first appointment, it took less than 5 minutes. Then you wait in the lounge area for your masseuse. I got the therapeutic massage and it was just what I needed. The massage therapist checked in with me about the pressure and wasn't chatty. It was bliss. She really helped to work out some pain I had been having and I left much more relaxed than when I came in. An overall 4.5 experience.

Eva was really wonderful - she is an amazing masseuse who helped my back pain. I was really…read moredisappointed with management. When I booked the appointment, it was not communicated that the clock starts the minute you check in. I arrived 10 minutes late due to needing to walk 1 hour in 90 degree heat to get to the appointment, and was offered to use the restroom beforehand. Again, no communication that "my clock" had started. I was taken to the room, then taken back to the front desk to get my temperature checked because they forgot to do it at the start. By the time I talked to Eva and got onto the table, it was 30 minutes into my 1-hour appointment. The massage, while amazing, only lasted 30 minutes, and I was charged for the full hour. When trying to push back, I was offered a $10 credit for my next appointment. I'm all for being understanding in the pandemic, but this should be a 2-way Street. I also understand increasing prices due to PPE but to be charged double for a service without communicating the policy is sneaky and not excusable. I'm left torn because the service itself was amazing but have a terrible taste on my mouth because of the price.
