I am grateful I found her as an accupuncturist. i began seeing her for sleeping problems i have about three years back. after my first session with her, i slept like a baby. her accupuncture and chinese herbs are sure to help in any ailment you might have. I love the fact that she also teaches Chi Gong Yoga ( i might have spelled that incorrectly). i would recommened everyone and anyone to go see Susan.!!!!!

While we were staying in Olympia, I developed some pretty bad allergies, after all, WA and AZ are VERY different. My symptoms got so bad that I couldn't breathe through my nose at all. Not wanting to send me to a doctor and pump me full of synthetic and harmful drugs, the husband found out about Chinese Medicine, and that led us Susan Monaco. I decided to try out this Chinese Medicine stuff and I was feeling pretty positive because I know the powers of natural healing. I met with her for an herbal consultation and after a chat with me about my symptoms and my medical history along with a pulse check and a tongue check, I was on my way with a weeks worth of herbs to mix with hot water. I will not lie, these herbs were the nastiest things I have ever tasted. It was truly awful. However, after two weeks of using them I watched my allergy symptoms almost disappear. An herbal consultation will run you 35 dollars, cash or check, and the herbs, a week's worth, will cost between 15-20 dollars. They also have acupuncture available, but I did not partake in that procedure. If any of you Olympians are feeling not well and would like an alternative approach to your health care, do not hesitate to give Susan Monaco a call.

This is my first acupuncture experience…read more A few weeks back, I pulled a muscle in my left shoulder blade from doing rigorous yard work. It's been radiating pain from my shoulder, to my bicep, to my forearm and my hand- deep, dull and in escapable pain that has been keeping me up at night and making it hard to work. I have tried everything I can think of ice, heating pads, ibuprofen, sleeping on my back, specialty pillow that tilts your chin upright, lidocaine, chiropractor. Nothing has helped. The first time I went into this acupuncture place, they were quick to answer their phone and were able to get me an appointment the same day. When I went into their office, I was in so much agony that they chose to ice me and see me again in a couple of days, which felt like the right thing to do. A few days later, I went in for my first appointment and they only put in 2 acupuncture needles. Today, I went for my third appointment and they did four or five needles with the TEMS unit hooked up which sends electrical pulses through the needles. It was quite an interesting experience, but it actually feels like it did something! Both employees have excellent bedside manner. They are intentional and gentle and I felt the care they have for this work and their clients. I would recommend them 1000 times over because they have helped me feel like a human again.

I've been to her for acupuncture and herbs for about 5 visits so far and I feel so much better. Even after the first visit I felt a big improvement. At first I went once a week (my choice) then we'll be switching to every other week. She is the opposite of pushy, very mellow, so you pick if you want to come back in one week or two. I went to her for fatigue, stress, intestinal issues, etc. which is all greatly reduced now but I want to keep going to build even more of a sense of strength, stamina, and joy. Furthermore she even knows naturopath stuff like ordering blood tests, evaluating ones you've already gotten, food alergies & reactivities, food/diet suggestions, etc. I feel like she's my one stop shop for all my needs due to the fact that she's super knowledgeable w/eastern medicine but also definitely enough western medicine too. From her website and meeting her you can tell that she's the best kind of super-geek who has studied a ton and keeps studying, but all because she is driven to help people. Oh and I almost forgot to mention that she has an online booking feature on her website so you can see what's available and book right away. At this pt it's on the contact page, upper right corner has a "Schedule with us" icon. You can even just book a first meeting to talk but I'm experienced as a patient of acupuncture so I knew I wanted to start w/ an acupuncture treatment.
