I'd done yoga, chiropracty, inversion tables, weight loss, epidural shots and spinal surgery at University of Texas Southwest Medical Center.

She takes a lot of time taking patient histories and seems very skillful in the precise placement of needles, as well as listening compassionately.

She has helped me with low back pain, foot pain, and stress management. I have referred numerous people to Alaina, and they have all had excellent results.

When I first came to Alaina, I was feeling extremely run down. Despite my vigorous Bikram Yoga…read morepractice and eating very little, I was not losing weight. After only 3-weeks of acupuncture treatments, along with a shift in my dietary habits and some Chinese herbal supplements, I'm feeling terrific, I have more energy and endurance, and I am noticeably thinner. I'll be 50 years-old in 2 months, and I had started to attribute the girth of my upper abdomen and puffy belly as simply being signs that I was getting older. However, Alaina suggested that I had an alternative: that I could be more youthful with her help. She explained to me that the treatments and changes she suggested for my daily diet would speed up my metabolism and give me more energy. In short, it's working! The puffiness in my upper abdomen is just about gone and I've lost an inch in my belly already, and I have exponentially more energy! The shift in my energy and endurance is particularly notable because each of my Bikram Yoga sessions consist of 90-minutes of 27 poses in 106-degree heat. There have been a couple of days where I practiced twice in the same day (3 hours total) and I still have energy to get my work done. The ladies at my yoga studio are definitely noticing the changes too. They've started to ask me what I'm doing that has led to a shrinking waistline, so I have to keep a stash of Alaina's cards in my wallet at the ready! If you are looking for a caring, insightful expert to assist you in promoting your health and well-being so you can fell amazing again, I feel comfortable telling you that you should definitely call Alaina right away to receive your free initial consultation

He has a passion for learning, is skilled and detailed at assessment and appropriate intervention. His treatments have made a huge difference in healing from a chronic and debilitating illness. I appreciate his philosophy as well as his love of explaining what and why he is doing a particular treatment. I've learned more from him than any other healing practitioner. Perhaps the most telling description I can make of Chaz's true healing nature - he not only referred me to a chiropractic neurologist, but he drove my partner and me to the appointment in Albuquerque and accompanied us in the evaluation to best learn how to maximize his work with me! When have you heard of a practitioner going that extra mile? I recommend him with enthusiasm and without any reservation!

I can't say enough about Dr. Sanchez. After undergoing three spinal fusion surgeries, a cubital…read moretunnel release, and living with constant pain, I had reached my breaking point. From the very beginning, he truly listened--showing both compassion and genuine concern for what I was going through. What stood out most was his ability to look beyond just my surgical history. While helping me manage my post-operative spine issues, he recognized signs of something more systemic and guided me to seek further evaluation. Because of his insight, I was able to see a rheumatologist and ultimately receive a diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis. Thanks to Dr. Sanchez, I not only gained a clearer understanding of my condition, but I also began addressing the root of my ongoing symptoms. His thoroughness, empathy, and dedication made a difficult journey much more manageable, and I'm incredibly grateful for his care.

Recently, Sciatica attacked me and I didn't know whether I needed a Physical Therapist or a…read moreChiropractor, or an Orthopedic Doctor. The pain was so intense that I could not wait the six weeks to see the doctor thru ER, so I called Dr. Bobby Sanchez because I knew that he would help much sooner than the conventional Drs. could. Previously I had seen him for a torn meniscus, and his help was focused with amazing results. His techniques for me in both situations were not the more common "snaping a joint" but focused on muscle manipulation or "ART" (active release techniques. For the current problem, he used acupuncture and "ART" which ultimately gave me relief. Most importantly, when I left his office I was much looser and more comfortable. Over the next few days the pain dissipated noticeably. After the third visit, I felt like I had control of the situation, but have booked a fourth visit because my body had compensated for the pain in my hip and leg and I wanted to be sure that I was correctly aligned. Dr. Bobby Sanchez has a definite feel for his profession. His charming demeanor, and handsome appearance, gave me instant confidence in being treated by him. His gentle but firm and correcting touch may not be for everyone, but he certainly helped me several times with problems that I now understand needed more than a quick snap. In addition to his excellent service, he is LGBTQ friendly. Currently, he is located inside a really cool Gym and parking is easy.

I am deeply grateful to Dr. Diane Rooney. She absolutely resolved my recent (and first-time bout…read morewith vertigo). I suffered for more than 30 days despite visits to GPs, a neurologist, PT, plenty of DIY research (including how to do the Eply maneuver) and more doses of Dramamine and Pepto Bismol that I can count. Thinking I had made an appointment, I showed up on her doorstep in desperation. Turns out I had not made an appointment but, seeing my state, she asked the patient she was about to treat if he could come back the next day. He was willing and Diane treated me. An hour later, I walked home vertigo-free. I've been back for a post-vertigo tune up with another in a few weeks. I'd seen Dr. Diane on several occasions prior for back and neck pain as well as to 'energize my chi' and I will now seek her out regularly as part of my self-care routine. She has extensive skill and experience in healing, acupuncture, massage associated with acupuncture, aroma therapy and much more. Her sensitivity, spirituality and deep care for your welfare sets her apart. Truly amazing. Thank you, Diane!

I have been a patient…read moreof Diane's for over 20 years and I cannot stress enough how special, amazing and most importantly , useful her work is. I have seen many Acupunturists over the last 25 years and not one has come close to her. She has been able to heal me and reduce my pain level in ways no one else could. She is a master of trigger point work and gets right to the root of the pain issue , rather than tapping in a few needles and leaving the room as many other practitioners do. So often I would leave her sessions feeling like a new person and I suffer from ongoing chronic pain. On top of that , she truly is gifted in her interpersonal skills and her ability to soothe and connect while you are getting treatment. She is the whole package. Her knowledge of herbs is also unparalleled. Most importantly she cares and she is the best around at what she does. I can't recommend her enough.

I had tried western medicine, and nothing had helped. I hate needles, but I was desperate. I had no idea there was such a thing as Japanese acupuncture.

That was two years ago and now I am getting help with from Doctor Meyer for sleep issues and that is working as well. No acupuncture is not a panacea for all ills but it is a non invasive way to balance the body so the body can heal.

There aren't enough words to express how much Laurie and her invaluable work mean to me, and how…read moremuch the both of them have transformed my life. As someone suffering from a rare, chronic breathing condition for which recurrent surgeries are necessary, there remains no long-term sustainable solutions. I've been seeking out various resources in the Albuquerque/Santa Fe area for alternative modalities of healing treatment. Nothing, apart from surgery itself, has provided me with as much relief, freedom from pain and discomfort, and overall well-being, as sound therapy. The work is powerful and the effects are immediate, lasting, meaningful, and impact not only physical healing, but psychological and emotional healing as well. Aside from experiencing what felt like nothing short of a miracle on the physical front, continued work with Laurie has left me feeling healthier, happier, and more at peace with and connected to myself than ever before. I sometimes describe the treatments to others as 'a massage without being touched,' only the treatments are even better and more relaxing than a massage, and the impact on both physical and emotional wellbeing are beyond that which I've found any other form of therapy to be able to accomplish. The time and care that Laurie puts into individualized treatment planning for her client's particular needs is astounding; I was completely floored by the amount of care and support I felt from Laurie, beginning from my very first treatment. I don't think I could have done a better thing for my health than sound therapy with Laurie; she cares so deeply about her work and her clients, and her intuition lends itself to her incredible skill. Working with Laurie, I have not only felt that I've taken a positive step towards my own healing, but have gained an ally, supporter, and friend along the way.
