Emily is amazing! I've been seeing her for years and every time I leave feeling rejuvenated, restored, and well taken care of. She's an excellent listener, has a gentle touch, and is full of practical ideas to mitigate stress, aches, and pains. Recently I've been seeing her for prenatal acupuncture appointments and I couldn't be happier with the level of care and attention she provides. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would, I can't speak highly enough of her talent and knowledge! I always leave feeling better than I did when I arrived- I'm so grateful to have found her practice. read more

Emily is deeply knowledgeable and caring. She is able to find exactly where to focus to create release and flow in the body. I was vibrating at a higher level when I left her charming office! I highly recommend her for whatever may ail you. read more

Emily is a consummate professional but yet gentle and kind. You won't find a more knowledgeable or experienced acupuncturist. Many of Emily's peers in the area are knowledgeable also but none have her touch. Emily's hands have that special healing quality and she makes you feel taken care of. From the moment you meet her to the last moment when you leave, you feel like you are being heard and cared for by someone who knows what she is doing. When you are in need of medical assistance, Emily should definitely be the first place you go. Definitely worth a visit if you are looking for an alternative healing professional. read more

I've been going to Emily now for about 5 months, or about 10 times. I often fall into the "zone" of super relaxation but not quite sleep; a meditative state. My recent digestive issues were the main reason for me to seek out Emily, but over the months I now primarily go for the relaxation and the winding down from my go-go-go Marin lifestyle. As a Japanese Acupuncturist, Emily uses needles much thinner than Chinese acupuncture. Perhaps this is why I go so deep in her sessions. Or, maybe it's the calm and wise nature of the practitioner. read more

I highly recommend Emily for acupuncture. She is very professional and her technique is wonderful. The entire experience was top notch and I felt that she is highly proficient at what she does. I was a little run down by life prior to going in for a treatment. The treatment was transformational and gave me a big boost for days afterwards. Give it a shot. You will thank yourself for taking this time for self care. read more

Emily is an acupuncturist trained in Japan who knows the latest techniques and who has an incredible "bed side" manner with patients.

"I can't say enough about Emily and her care and professionalism. Her care and concern and knowledge are so evident each time I have an appointment with her. She made me feel comfortable the first time we met. Highly recommend her and her practice. I can't say enough about her! Her treatments have helped me so very much!" read more

Emily has a soft confidence that makes me feel her knowledge and openness in a way that lets me surrender to her care. I feel a calmness throughout my body after her treatments. I highly recommend Emily to anyone seeking this type of experience. read more

Each time I see Emily, I have gotten immediate results!! My hip gets very tight and the pain is nagging, but as soon as Emily finishes her needle work it feels great. The insertion is painless and the treatment is very relaxing, I usually drift off to sleep. Emily is very skilled. read more

Emily's a great practitioner-- she helped me a lot with my PMS and sluggish liver chi. Very gentle and explains what she's doing, which makes her an excellent choice if you're a little squeamish about the needles. Her office is easy to get to, parking's no problem, and I love being her patient! read more

Having never had an acupuncture session before, I was a total rookie. I have always been curious, however. Emily certainly made me feel at ease before the treatment and set expectations well. I did like that she didn't tell me how anything would feel, however, which left me to discover that through the process of the treatment. It helped me focus intently on what I was feeling and become more in touch with how my body felt. I can't wait to have more session with Emily and I definitely recommend you see her! read more

My session was great. Emily is very thorough, accurate, and can easily tune into how well my body is working or not. She deftly opens any stuck energy and smooths out any small aberrations. I recommend getting yourself an appointment soon. Why wait. read more

Emily is a compassionate listener and excellent practitioner who completely put me at ease before my first session. Her technique and thin Japanese needles are painless and, as a result, totally anxiety-free. I sought out Emily's help for heart palpitations and frequent urination. After five sessions, both issues were resolved. I will definitely seek out Emily's assistance again. read more

I began with 100% skepticism on acupuncture. Now I'm a complete convert, because after several years of pain, persistent headaches, unnecessary side effects from prescribed medications and additional injuries from trying to compensate for the poorly-working muscles, I'm now living a more normal, functioning life with little or no pain at all. Emily is a godsend. Perhaps it's her long time practice (she lived and practiced acupuncture for almost 30 years in Japan), or her keen listening skills, or her gentle, empathetic approach to treatment that helped speed the healing process, because her treatments really worked. My headache greatly diminished after the first treatment, and after a few more treatments, my head's clear as can be. My plantar fasciitis also improved immensely, and after a few treatments I can now walk barefoot without wincing. My arm is also working well now. Even my physical therapist was shocked to see how fast I've progressed considering the poor state I was in when they first diagnosed me. Thank you so very much, Emily, for helping me get my body working again. If there's one thing I learned from her, we all deserve a shot at a happy, longer and mobile life in a much shorter and medication-free way. read more

I can't speak highly enough how effective Emily's treatments have been for me. I found her through a friend when I was truly desperate. In 2015, I was scheduled to do a cycling trip from Eureka to SF with friends from the East Coast, and woke up five days before leaving with my back locked up so badly that I couldn't tie my shoes (my back had never done that before). Emily not only unlocked my back with a single, one hour treatment (I did the ride, camping on the ground for six nights), she also told me why she thought it had happened. Lo and behold, the next day at work I discovered how I had my computer monitor situated was exactly the reason (twisted posture) that Emily had diagnosed as my reason for my back locking up. Three weeks ago, my vehicle was rear ended, and a few days later I woke with neck pain. Again, Emily eased most of the stiffness and pain with a single treatment. Besides being an amazing healer, she's a wonderful woman to with. I think so highly of her that I wrote my first Yelp review!! read more
