My Acupuncturist (whom specializes in pain) requested I meet Dr. Surasky because her expertise was…read morefrom a different point of view. Since my Acupuncturist said Dr. Surasky is known as the "Queen of Berkeley" ... who wouldn't want to at least meet and experience the needle wielding Queen of Berkeley?! Well, the Queen uncovered/revealed the possibility that the pain I am/was experiencing was a result of having grown up in the presence of full blown narcissists. She had me read "It's Not You" by Dr. Ramini. OMG!!! My life flashed before me. Everything with regard to what I have been going through physically is suppressed emotions/trauma resulting in pain. I have been a business consultant over 40 years and about 50% of my clients were Doctors and their staff. Abigail is truly one of the most caring, loving, sincere, sensitive, insightful, sweet, angelic warriors on earth. She truly is a Queen ... in her way of being so like a human angel, in her humble love getting all over anyone in her space, in her patience in the face of my fear and hating those needles (all more past trauma stuff) and I receive her as coming to me through Divine guidance (Dr. Jamie Hampton referred me to Abigail and both of these women are literally angels here to heal humans, animals and the earth). When it was confirmed in my mind I had/have trauma causing pain in the body, Abigail found three references for me. Thank God, since I am totally in new territory. Again, Divine grace, when I immediately knew which person was my therapist. In the second session, pain released and exited my body and on the other side of this I am happier and feel better. Okay, this would have never happened without Abigail. So, she's a master of acupuncture and needles ... coupled with being a master of Divine insight into love and the magic of this bag of skin we live in called a body. I could go on and on. Just schedule your session and go. Have a miraculous forever!

I have been going to Abigail for a few months now and am wicked impressed with her kind and…read moreauthentic approach to acupuncture. She works with your body to identify needs and address accordingly. I have recommended her to multiple friends and family members - especially those who are fearful or had poor past experiences with other acupuncturists. Her new Oakland office is comfortable and feels more like a home than a clinical setting. Appointments follow a similar flow- beginning with a conversation to check in on how you're feeling, before proceeding with treatment and at least 30 minutes of rest to allow maximum benefits. I really appreciate the heat lamps and meditative background music! Strongly recommend - especially for anyone new to acupuncture!

I also notice better resilience, and better ability to manage the physiological impacts of my extremely stressful life.

I found Dr. Debra about eight months ago while looking for someone to help rehab my aching body…read moreafter a backpacking trip. I'd hiked many miles without aggravating an old herniated disc injury, but my joints were protesting--and my foot felt like it was on fire. Dr. Debra skillfully addressed not only the immediate issues but also the underlying patterns contributing to them, bringing ease to my fiery foot (and my bunion-leaning toes) and helping me find greater openness in my chest and shoulders. Along the way, they have taught me how to better care for myself in my athletic endeavors, daily work, and everyday movement. I love Dr. Debra's ability to work both efficiently and holistically. Their blend of chiropractic adjustments (including the activator tool), targeted muscle work, and spacious craniosacral therapy strikes a perfect balance. Unlike some chiropractors who focus solely on resetting bones, they also work with muscles, connective tissue, organs, and the nervous system to support deeper wellness. As an over-55 person renewing my commitment to post-menopausal health, it means so much to have a practitioner in my corner as I challenge myself in new ways. I recently added weight training to my routine, and while my body is more resilient thanks to our work, Dr. Debra continues to help me learn how to care for myself under this new stress. I also appreciate Dr. Debra's genuine (yet still professional) style. They they explain the mechanics of the body clearly and give effective "homework" to keep progress going between sessions. When my teen headed out to the Pacific Crest Trail, they offered a hands-on session plus practical guidance that was used daily to prevent injury. We are so grateful. The whole family says thank you--we want everyone to see Dr. Debra!

I have visited a number of acupuncturists over the years, many whom have been great practitioners…read more But they weren't more than a practitioner. They often felt like technicians going though the motions of what they had learned in school to administer rather than seeing the patient as an individual and using their instincts to craft a custom treatment plan. Dr. Petrov is in a class of her own - I believe she practices Traditional Chinese Medicine in....well the traditional way. In the way it has been practiced for thousands of years. At the time of writing this review, I am only three sessions in, however I can see a marked change in my body after 15+ years of chronic pain and dysfunction. I have been seeking a care provider that uses their intuition, experience and collaborates with the patient to help me sort out seemingly unrelated issues that I know are intertwined. For the first time in my adult life, I can actually see a path forward to healing and being free of chronic pain and dysfunction. I have hope now. Not a glimmer of hope, but full-borne CAPITAL H Hope that I might actually get to live a not only normal, but vibrant life post 40. Dr. Petrov's approach to having patients commit to at least three months of weekly care empowers the patient to be a participant rather than a passive recipient of technical applications. If you are looking for someone to treat you as you lay there, she isn't for you. If you are looking for someone to truly care about your journey of recovery, someone who gives you tools to start helping yourself and someone who is truly invested in your whole well-being, you can do no better than Dr. Petrov.

She examined my problem, gave my feet a wider spread, and explored possible contributing causes. She then trained me to work with my problem at home and suggested over-the counter remedies that I am eager to try. Sara surpassed my expectations, and I gained new feet therapy skills I can integrate into my daily routine. I am so appreciative! I highly recommend seeing Sara about aches and pains and even a wellness checkup.

She came to my home a few times and then I transitioned to the office when I was able to drive. I'm making good progress and I attribute that to her care and treatment.

I honestly wasn't sure what to expect, but Jenna has always made me feel completely safe and confident when trying treatments for the first time. I noticed a reduction in my back pain immediately and acupuncture has truly brought so much relief from what I used to suffer there. Overtime we've been working to treat my GI issues as well (gas/bloating, constipation, abdominal pain), and there have been many times that acupuncture has helped to calm these symptoms as well! This year I was diagnosed with Small Intestine Bacteria Overgrowth (SIBO), so there are some other protocols I am following to treat this, but I've been noticing how the acupuncture works tremendously well alongside these things and my gut is truly repairing/healing!!!! It's more than just the needles though :) Jenna provides tips and counseling on the TCM diet, hydration, sleep, etc., which have been a huge help as well.
