Dr. Alaina did full body x-rays, thoroughly assessed my posture, prescribed me exercises specific to the way my spine was curved to help take pressure off of and unwind the curves, and correct my posture. my pain levels went from severe to mild when i consistently do these exercises and wear my brace. the brace she make's accessible to her scoliosis patients is made from 3D technology that is custom made specifically for each individual. the brace, in combination with the exercises has reduced the size of my curves. when i found this practice, i was in a state of chronic agony and pain for years and no matter what i did i could not relieve it. she brought me out of this state of constant pain that was weighing me down everyday. i am extremely grateful that a practice like this exists in my hometown, they are a needle in a haystack.

I was blessed to get her contact information from my acupuncturist who is the head at the Daoist school for Acupuncture in Asheville . Dr. Eastman had gotten rave reviews so I booked an appointment. Lucky me! She's not only smart and so well skilled, she is a delightful person who cares so much about her patients I know that because while waiting to be seen a few times, people would come out so happy and speaking so highly of her. There's so much to say when a person in pain is in the hands of Doctor that knows how to treat them. It's a very beautiful and unique situation in the healing world. I know first hand, having seen other chiropractors who just weren't as good to be honest There aren't enough stars to tell you how grateful I am to be her client. I'm so much better now, and I will continue to see her for maintenance to keep everything moving great Highly recommend

I contacted Mary via her website on a whim Tuesday night and was booked within an hour the following morning. Now on to the actual services....I made an appointment for a 90 minute massage and acupuncture...her services exceeded my expectations. Mary listened to my concerns and proceeded to use a combination of acupressure, deep tissue massage, acupuncture AND cupping to ease the pain I was experiencing in my Neck and upper back. She not only focused on my pain but also used certain acupuncture points to help with some insomnia I've been battling. Let me also mention that Mary was very informative and explained what she was doing and why as well, and answered any questions I had. The farm animals are a bonus! So sad that I live too far away to see Mary on a regular basis. Anytime I'm in Asheville I'll be sure to see her again. Thank you Mary for your kindness, expertise and helping me feel 100x better.

Well, Yelp! wins again. Dr. Steven is amazing. If you second guess why he's at the top of the…read moreBest Of lists, well then you owe it to yourself (and your spine) to give him a ring. I called and left a message about hoping to get in quickly for a consult and an adjustment due to some back strain from moving/biking/life. However, being in meetings on a Monday and Tuesday meant little time to actually try to schedule something - can't be stepping out to make calls constantly. Dr. Steven was able to work with my schedule over text, and within a matter of minutes, I had an appointment that fit my schedule, and he gave me some (very reasonable) cost for services. I wasn't in the quaint waiting room before Dr. Steven came in to get me. On time. His demeanor was very casual and welcoming, which I love. I had a chiropractor once whose mannerisms were so erratic, I would always get nervous he was going to snap something or trip over his own feet (he was good, though, but man, just made me nervous). We went to his office, and he sat down and listened to me. Just sitting down and conversing with me meant a lot - no jittery movements, no multitasking, no BS. He took a great history and did some test movements to make sure he wouldn't injure anything before doing an adjustment. His adjustments lasted a fair bit longer than I have had in the past, as I usually get a quick crack or two then shoved onto a traction machine or some other contraption. Not Dr. Steven. Using only his handiwork and one handheld tool, he manipulated, massaged, stretched, moved, and then adjusted me. He educated me on some of my body's natural mobility, and the rationales for why I might be feeling some of my pains. After our appointment, he gave me some GREAT tips on how to improve my pain and spine health at home, and offered me to just message him and set up another appointment. In today's hectic world, finding someone who is accommodating, flexible, and skillful is a daunting task. Add on Dr. Steven's excellent demeanor, knowledge, and fair pricing - and you've got yourself a fantastic doctor. Thanks again, Dr. Steven - I will be back!

I can't believe how awesome this place is…read more It's a profound mixture of quality and value. I haven't had health insurance in forever, and when I was taken down by a BRUTAL cough a friend of mine recommended I see his acupuncturist and herbalist. Upon showing up in the cozy little office in the Flat Iron building I was a bit surprised to find out that my friend's acupuncturist was neither Chinese, nor old. Please don't take that as I sign of ignorance, it was just that the way my friend had talked about his acupuncturist and how skilled he was, and how he doesn't get migraines and yadda yadda yadda I just assumed that the guy must be Chinese and well seasoned. Call me captain ignorant. The Dr. (?) was named Evan and was very pleasant. A nice quiet guy, must have only been a few years older than me. He asked to see my tongue, and took my pulse, and then started asking me a bunch of questions. I was getting ready for some needles when the doc told me that I was in need of herbs, not acupuncture. He had this big chest of drawers and grabbed some things out of a few of them, mixed them together and told me to add a teaspoon of the mixture to hot water and drink it every other hour. Then he gave me the bill and I was shocked, it was jaw droppingly affordable. I was stunned, and happy, and took myself out to a nice lunch at the indian restaurant around the corner. So yeah my cough didn't clear up immediately, but I did start feeling better after the first cup of what I can only call "cinnamon sweat". Within a day or two my cough was completely gone and remained at bay. My plan is to call this guy whenever I start feeling ill, rather than when I'm in the throngs of death. I'm just excited about being able to take care of my health without having to worry about money as much.
