But the reason I'm writing this review in 2019 is to attest that her advice has stood the test of time. By adhering to the good habits she taught me, I've found it easy to keep my weight low & my fitness high. And as she claims, there is no sense of deprivation or being on a permanent diet. It would sound like an overblown cliché for an Angeleno to say that a nutritionist's advice was "life-changing". But I can't think of a more appropriate word -- and going in, I was a skeptic. Better eating habits and fitness have improved every part of my life: I sleep better. I'm more productive at work. I'm nicer to children and animals. And I still get to eat nachos and beer.

I've been working with Ms. Polina at East Meets West for the past 4-5 months, and my experience has been consistently positive. From our very first session, Ms. Polina was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and professional. She took the time to understand not only my physical symptoms, but also the emotional, mental, and even spiritual aspects of what I was experiencing, and explained how they may connect through Eastern medicine practices. One of the things I appreciate most is how genuinely cared for I feel during each appointment. Even when I struggled to fully put my experience into words, she listened patiently and helped me feel understood. She creates a calm, welcoming environment, always offers pleasant conversation and great rapport, and is happy to answer any questions I have along the way. I've been going weekly for the best results, and I truly look forward to my sessions. I'm very grateful for the care, consistency, and professionalism I've experienced with Ms. Polina and would absolutely recommend East Meets West to anyone looking for thoughtful, holistic care. read more

Polina is amazing. She provided huge relief. I had been dealing with stomach pain and issues for years and never really got any answers. A friend recommended Polina. Polina recommended tests which showed I had a significant Candida overgrowth. She put me on a specific diet and a few supplements. The diet was challenging, but I started feeling better after the first week, so I was able to stick with it. Over time, my symptoms completely resolved. And I lost weight! I also learned how to eat healthier. We did everything long-distance while I was in New York. Polina was always available by text and email and responded quickly, which made the whole process super simple and reassuring. I highly recommend Polina! read more

Polina is a wonderful healer! I first went to see her to help with my anxiety and insomnia, but she has helped me with everything from pain after surgery to sore muscles to TMJ. She is extremely personable and makes you feel comfortable immediately upon entering her office. She is also chock full of nutritional and herbal advice, but never makes you feel pressured to buy anything. She just genuinely wants what is best for you. And her prices are extremely reasonable, especially for the comprehensive exam and treatment you receive. I highly recommend Polina if you want to feel better! read more

I had insomnia for 2 months in which I literally could not sleep during that time. I went to see Polina because I am against taking sleeping pills and other sorts of over-the-counter drugs. I heard that acupuncture could help and I could not be happier with my results. I saw Polina twice and after the second treatment, I could sleep infinitely better that night. Through her "magic touch" and acupuncture, I was more relaxed than I had been in months. I truly recommend seeing Polina for any issues as I've seen from first-hand experience that she can really help. read more

After having a positive first impression and experience I purchased a series of ten Accupuncture sessions for $1000.00 at the end of my first session. I tried making follow-up appointments on her online appointment system only to be told by Mona that she never got them. She told me I should call her for appointments because the online system was not accurate. Mona was not good at returning calls so booking an appointment required a couple of calls before getting a response from her. For my fourth appointment I left a couple of messages and Mona did not return my calls at all. I ran into Mona about a month ago outside of her new WeHo location. While exchanging greetings and briefly chatting with Mona I reminded her of her failure to return my calls for my last attempt to make an appointment. She stated she'd not gotten my messages and suggested I come in for treatments at the new location. A couple weeks later I stopped by the WeHo location while in the area and although Mona was not in I asked the receptionist to make an appointment. After about ten minutes of failed attempts on the computer she said it was a new system and she'd have to check with Mona to confirm her schedule before booking an appointment. I said I'd call Mona and schedule. I called Mona a couple of times and left messages asking her to call me to schedule an appointment. True to form, Mona did not return my calls. I pre-paid $1000 for a series of ten treatments. In return I received three treatments. Mona's business practices are unprofessional, unethical and dishonest. A huge waste of money and energy. Very disappointing.

However, I wanted to stay active, so I continued to deal with the sciatica pain after each workout. It got to the point that I couldn't sit in class or lay in bed without feeling the burning discomfort/pain of sciatica on the left side of my body radiating from my lower back down to my foot. This pain had continued up until this year at the age of 21. I had been to chiropractors and gone through months of physical therapy before deciding to finally try acupuncture. Like many people, I was a bit skeptical at first of eastern medicine and how acupuncture could really help me. However, after hearing countless people rave about acupuncture I thought it couldn't hurt and decided to check it out for myself. I went onto yelp, found Vie Healing, and after reading the great reviews I booked an appointment the next week. As soon as I walked into Vie Healing I was greeted by Mona and felt at ease. Like many other clients have stated in their reviews, Mona truly has a radiant, calm, and kind energy that makes you feel instantly relaxed. She answered all of my questions and explained everything she was doing and its purpose throughout the treatment. She is a true expert in her field. After about 40 minutes my treatment was complete and I was in absolute shock. I literally could not feel my sciatica pain at all. It was as if someone had performed some voodoo magic on me. I am telling you there was no more pain whatsoever. Since that first treatment I have been seeing Mona weekly and my sciatica pain has significantly decreased. Here and there I have discomfort but it is nowhere near the level it was before. Anytime I have a flare up it is gone by the end of my treatment with Mona. I can sit in class comfortably, fall asleep without tossing and turning, and even got back onto a regular workout plan without debilitating discomfort. I am so grateful I found Mona and took the leap to try acupuncture. I recommend her very highly and will continue to see her for treatments. If you are not sure whether acupuncture is right for you, trust me, go see Mona. You and your body will be very happy you did.

We had been wanting to get our baby adjusted for some time. The ease of setting up a time to go in alone made our visit worthwhile. When we arrived, we were welcomed with open arms and consideration. What a peaceful place and at the time right in the middle of chaos (we went to the location on La Brea and Hollywood). Our entire family ended up getting an adjustment. And it was definitely worth it. We appreciate this office tremendously and felt well taken care of. Especially in a city so vast where you can get lost...for some reason this place felt like home.

I would always have a weird feeling on one side of My back that I never experienced anywhere else, and I have had better chiropractors, but I won't say she doesn't do a good job. That is where the 1star is from. With that said-- this is not a safe place for Black people. My first session, she pulled the 'All my friends are Black' trope with Me. Iris literally told Me "50% of them are dem and 50% are rep. I'm just here in the middle trying to hold them all together. Not like Jesus though; ego." Equating her self as a white savior then acting like anyone even compared her to Jesus other than her self. This woman emphasizes with trump. She bragged about loving Candance Owens; and literally tried to debate Me about the fact that Candance Owens perpetuates racism and self hate. She also has American flags everywhere.. including in a Buddhas hand lol. I also heard her arguing with another patient over Kyle Rittenhouse(another white man was disgusted by him and was nervous he wouldn't be charged). Her response, "Well I'm more worried about THEM burning down buildings." 'Them' meaning My people-- Black people. He told her, "You mean standing up for them selves and fighting for their rights?" Her response in an aggressive and condescending tone, "You mean just burning down buildings." This man actually held her accountable to which he asked her, "Well what do you do to make the situation better for the Black community?" She responded as a typical, privileged, entitled white woman "What do you mean?! Look at me! I'm here healing you. I'M A HEALER. I HEAL." As if that had anything to do with what he said. Nor is she a healer, she's a paid chiropractor that wouldn't be offering services if she didn't need a career or money. She then proceeded to come into My room and try to bring the conversation up with Me which was immediately shut down, only to be followed by her telling Me a story of her feeling victimized. Typical. Every session here was Iris coming into the room, talking about her self, unprompted. Constantly reiterating that she's an independent that sides more with reps, and just being completely ignorant and self absorbed when all I wanted was to just get My adjustments. The only reason I ever went back here after My first session was that I had paid for multiple sessions already upfront and had forgotten to cancel the second automatic charge. I honestly didn't even schedule My last paid session because I didn't want this woman touching My chakras anymore. Nor did I want to have to deal with being in a toxic environment for a Black person. If you're into ignorance, entitlement, and racism, then this is the place for you and I'm sure you won't mind her behavior or the convos. If you're a Black person, I would recommend doing more research to find another place. The cute lights, lasers, and aesthetic don't make up for the experience.

Before this, I hadn't dropped a single pound no matter how hard I tried and in less than two months into Dr. Seeta's Ayurvedic program, I'm down 10lbs. Losing 1-2lbs in a healthy way per week. I'm living from a place of calm. Feeling excited for life again, inspired and finding a lot of moment of joy. She created custom Ayurvedic herbals for me to target everything I asked for. Inflammation is significantly down in my neck and pain has diminished substantially. I'd always been curious about this type of holistic healing and what I've heard and loved about it, and what I discovered through diving into it, is that it truly is not a one size fits all approach and it's so important to have an expert custom build a specific plan for you. It's amazing to see so much change in such a short amount of time.

I have chronic lower-back pain (lumbar-facet for anyone familiar with that). It comes & goes,…read moresometimes it flairs up. Recently, I had an especially painful flair up & felt extremely incapacitated. I could barely get my shoes on, it hurt to do almost everything. Someone recommended Dr. Jennifer Botelho. Let me tell you, I expected, maybe, some temporary relief--I got waaaay more than I hoped or bargained for! Dr. Botelho is gifted. With just a little probing & tweaking she immediately diagnosed my problem, and with some very thoughtful "adjustments" I left her office feeling significantly better. But here is the best part: in the hours (and days) that followed I realized my lower-back pain was rapidly diminishing. Literally improving by the hour, and overnight. In under a week I am 95% improved. I can't promise everyone will have the same "miraculous" (overnight) result, every spine is different, but Dr. Botelho is *extremely* knowledgeable & has a great bedside (chairside) manner. She is a first-rate practitioner & her office is lovely (simple clean office, very helpful front desk). While she doesn't take insurance, her rates are incredibly reasonable & her office will file your medical insurance claims for you for reimbursement. They handle all of that. I can't recommend Dr. Bothelo & the Chiropractic Center of LA highly enough. As we know, pain is very debilitating and Dr. Bothelo provided, for me, immediate relief. She has gifted hands! Thank you!!

Dr. Botelho is hands down the best chiropractor I've ever been to. She really knows her stuff and…read moreis hyper specific with her treatments. Everyone in the office is super warm and welcoming, will answer any questions without making you feel like you're putting them out, just all around the best. There isn't much else to say - if you need a chiropractor do yourself a favor and go to her!

First time classpass user and I'm so glad I went with Wendy Gerrish Wellness. Booked a 60 min…read more custom massage with Kaori. EXCELLENT MASSAGE. I workout a lot (weight-lifting, basketball) and had a lot of tightness in my neck and back. Kaori went to town and worked on all the knots and stiffness I was feeling. She was also constantly checking in to make sure pressure and everything was good (I like firm, deep-tissue style massages; which is exactly what I got) 5 stars for Kaori and I will definitely be coming back.
