She is an amazing resource, an effective healer, and just a wonderful person to connect with. I first came to her looking for help with overall balance and facial acupuncture and she delivered on both fronts. I love that she is able to combine services that help me feel well on the inside and out! Most recently, I worked with her proactively for a focused 4-5 month period (treatment every two weeks) to prepare for conception and I got pregnant at 38 on my first try. I firmly believe that working with Natalie supported my fertility and and made it much a smoother process for me. Thank you!

How do I know? I felt discomfort and restriction in a certain position before my session. And I got more range of motion without discomfort at the end of the session. And she put needles in me where no one had put needles before. She can also provide cupping. She's also knowledgable about energywork. She was very generous with her time. I found her online. I was drawn to her because of specific testimonials, Facebook, Google, and Yelp reviews from her clients, and because she offers modalities I haven't seen anyone else provide together. Unlike some acupuncturists who spend a few minutes sticking needles in me before they move on to other clients, she spends the whole time administering different modalities with me.

In doing an online search, I saw great reviews for Dr Burch and booked an appointment. I count myself very lucky to be having SI Joint surgery with Dr. Shane Burch. Not only is he a world class surgeon but he's one of the few top back surgeons who recognizes SI joint as a real problem that deserves its own treatment plan apart from the back. He does the SI joint surgery as minimally invasive surgery where you are discharged home the same day. He is very easy to talk to, knowledgeable, direct, and everything about the experience with Dr. Burch has been great. Do your research but if you think you might have SI joint problem that other doctors been puzzled by, book an appointment with him. He will know how to help you.

I think what many of the other reviewers struggle with here is that this is definitely a no frills…read morekind of place. Very basic amenities, no nonsense employees, and pretty different overall from the fancier western style spas we may be used to going to. The style of massage (even the full body deep tissue /Swedish) was done in a pretty traditional Chinese style. Which is to say that it was intense, limited privacy (which I think some reviewers interpret as "sexual", which it was not), and, depending on the massage type you do, they sometimes climb on the table to work on your back or other muscle groups, which if you're not used to it, can seem strange. This all said, I had a really good experience with Kelly as my masseuse. She's incredibly strong and really went to work on my tightest muscles. I left feeling 10x more relaxed and would definitely see her for massage work again! Also, I was able to walk right in without an appointment and they took me right away! The reason this is a 4 and not a 5 star review for me is that the space and amenities are pretty rough around the edges. The place could be a lot nicer with a fresh coat of paint, some new linens, and a cleaner bathroom. And they do make you pay up front before your massage which is a bit awkward, however I found the woman at the front desk to be very honest after I accidentally wrote the wrong tip on the receipt (higher than i meant to) and she let me know so I could fix it, which I really appreciated.
