Anastasia and her shop give so much to the community, through a variety of platforms. a lot of teaching on the instagram, and patreon, guidance and entertainment through twitch, youtube and tt, and the store is well staffed with people knowledgeable about both the store's products and the practice in general. also - Alyssa in particular crushes it. she has helped me successfully achieve my intended outcome and quickly. i personally love the ocean theme here, fitting for a coastal shop of course, but also speaks to those of us that love water energy and mermaid/siren vibes. also the community supporting moonlight is phenomenal, I have met so many beautiful people whom i have kept in contact with afterwards. i hope to see expansion continue to other cities (hello, Laguna beach! hint hint) and wish Anastasia and Dylan nothing but the best.

Words can't describe how amazed I am by Cai and what she does. I had hurt my back working out to…read morethe point I ended up at the ER for severe muscle spasms. I couldn't sit, I couldn't lay down and my lower back and my entire lower abdomen was locked up. I was relying on pain management for over a week with no clear answers. I even went to my trusted chiropractor but got zero relief. I had heard acupuncture could help and at that point I was willing to try anything. I found Cai on Yelp and got in same day to see her. She assessed me and figured out my pain wasn't stemming from a joint, which is what everyone else thought. She identified two muscles that had been strained and went to work for 2 hours, with needles on both my front and my back. In one session my pain is 90% gone and I'm totally amazed at how much better I feel. She has made me a believer and I will now be back any time I need some relief. Thank you so much Cai

Still had a 4" deficit when I raised both arms up above my head - I just could not get the mobility and so I looked for an excellent acupuncturist. After three sessions of acupuncture, I can say that my mobility has returned. I'm continuing to do the stretches that she taught me. I have also augmented my treatment with Cai with massage and a red light therapy shoulder harness that I purchased on Amazon. Highly recommend acupuncture with Cai's Clinic of Acupuncture if you are starting to suffer from frozen shoulders due to hormonal changes; I am 63 and I know that's what caused my frozen shoulder. If my right shoulder starts acting up I know where to go! I have recommended Cai to another frozen shoulder sufferer and she also found immediate relief from just one treatment. She is also continuing the stretching and heat compresses.

I was right about to start IVF when I learned about the benefits of doing acupuncture concurrently…read more Even though I reached out to Dr. Scarlett less than 3 weeks from when I was starting stims and also about to leave for vacation she went above and beyond to schedule a phone and in person consultation with me to discuss my needs and come up with a personalized treatment plan that worked around my busy IVF and busy work schedule. I had never done acupuncture before this and am not a big fan of needles, but Dr. Scarlett was extremely supportive and taught me a breathing exercise tip that helped me feel less anxious, that also ended up helping me while I was doing my stims at home. For the most part you barely feel the needles go in and she helped prepare me and was extra gentle for any that she thought I might feel more. The experience while the needles are in is extremely relaxing and meditative. Since IVF schedules are already overwhelming I wasn't sure if adding acupuncture appointments to the mix was going to make it more so, but it was the complete opposite. Overall, I felt that my acupuncture appointments gave me time I needed to be present and feel more grounded with my body and mind during a time when I was asking so much of it, and also gave me a positive association with needles. I responded well to the IVF stims with my only side effects being bloating (to be expected), the results of my retrieval being favorable, and my recovery being smooth. I truly believe that my IVF experience went as smoothly as it did thanks to the personalized treatment plan, tips, and encouragement Dr. Scarlett provided. I will definitely be back to Red Lotus/to work with Dr. Scarlett for all my future acupuncture wellness needs, cannot recommend her enough!

The manager was super friendly and knowledgeable, which made it easy for us to choose.

We went with the Euphoria and Zero Proof, and both were really enjoyable. Two bottles came out to about $25, which felt fair for something new and unique. It would've been helpful to see prices on the menu, but overall, it was a great first visit. We'd definitely come back to try more!

Almost 20 years of medications were never able to help me and my life was going nowhere on them. I found Keith after doing my research in alternative medicine (as recommended by a close friend of mine), and I knew there had to be some other way than medications when I already tried 7 different medications and none of them worked. I was just regressing. One month of starting Keith Smiths supplements, I had finally started getting better and my life was finally getting back on track. I finally got a better job position, started a family, bought a house, and have stability. I look forward to continue to see how far I can progress! Thank you Keith, with love always! ~Kaylah
