Everyone at PDX Acupuncture is so kind and most importantly treatments lead to positive results.

Both downtown and NE PDX locations are convenient and lovely, relaxing spaces and their online booking system makes scheduling easy as well.

As another member on the growing list of Maraya's clients with extensive prior massage experience,…read moreI too can attest to Maraya earning high marks in professionalism, care, adaptability, detail orientation and sincerity in her work and the people it brings her into contact with. Maraya is keenly aware of the fact that her hands are but one instrument in the ensemble of an exceptional massage experience. She combines them with a level of conscientiousness and communication not usually found in someone without an extensive tenure in massage therapy, making each session a kind of hand-crafted snowflake; so individually tailored as to be utterly unique from every other. Maraya is not only very good at what she does, she is only getting better. Having moved too far away from my lifetime masseuse to be able to make appointments any more than once a year, I'm so relieved to know that such a suitable alternative exists here.

The offices are in a pretty big space on Broadway in NE. It's much nicer than the closet size massage room that I have experienced at other facilities. The rooms at Numinosity are large enough for the massage table and large couches for relaxing before and after treatment. I saw Gina James for Reiki massage. I highly recommend it. The prices are pretty average for a one hour massage. About 60. I haven't seen any of the other practicioners, but the atmosphere was so nice and staff so friendly that I will probably be going back very soon.

I was able to get in to see her on a recommendation from my PCP and even during that initial appointment I experienced some profound healing. Upon first meeting Joanna, her bright and calming spirit was what initially brought me comfort. Over the course of the last two years she has provided support through her acupuncture, as well as her wisdom. I've never met a person quite like Joanna - there really is something special about her. It's certainly reflected in the other reviews posted here that she brings about change in one's life. She is trustworthy, compassionate, intuitive, and really listens. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone looking to heal their body of pain and/or trauma (both emotional and physical), and/or looking to deepen their connection to themselves and the world around them. I am so grateful to have found Joanna and that she is one of my care providers.

I have been a patient of Dr. Stuart's for nearly nine years…read more At first, my work hours and assignment locations (north central Portland) allowed me greater convenience to select flexible appointments. Later, when my hours and work location (I'm in Beaverton now) moved me further away and sometimes limited my choice of appointment times, I ignored the advice of many of my friends telling me to locate a closer Chiropractor and stayed with Dr. Stuart; her being the ONLY reason or need for me to come into Portland (from west Beaverton to east Portland). I tell you this because she is the genuine article. She's worth my trip. One thing she won't do is toot her own horn. She plays it off, but she cares a great deal about her clients care and well being. Dr. Stuart is meticulous and compassionate in getting to the root of your discomfort and finding the cause. She also respects her patient's privacy. She is prompt with her appointments; your time with her IS your time; she doesn't double or triple book like some offices. She works the neck, head, spine and hips and has even done some TMJ work on me; doing wonders for my pain management! She has a modified schedule (closed Thursdays but open Saturdays) to help accommodate those with weird schedules. Her office also utilizes several Licensed Massage Therapists if the need (and your insurance covers) arises. Sorry, it's not just the Doc; they also work miracles by the hour as well. (I'm coping with the idea that my favorite therapist is leaving someday soon to become one of our nation's BEST nurses...so proud!) She bills some insurance (you'll need to call, I don't know who). I've seen worker's comp cases come in, but since it wasn't any of my business, I didn't pay any attention; I can't tell you about what is and isn't accepted. Give Dr. Stuart a call. Stop in and give her a chance. It says "Appointment Only" below, which is mostly true. Sometimes they have cancellations and they may be able to fit you in...keep in mind Then find out if your insurance covers the massage with it. If not, see if you can handle that part of the cost. The SMARTEST THING in pain management I've ever seen was to have a Massage Therapist in a Chiropractor's office. They go together like peanut butter and jelly. Give Amanda, Lissa (short for Melissa) or Sylvia a chance to work out the rest of the kinks before or after your adjustment. YOU'LL GET HOOKED! (this is my opinion. Dr. Stuart did not ask for this review.)

It's taken me years to write this review because the amount that Krishna has helped me is quite…read moreinexpressible. I was referred to her when I had Complex Regional Pain Syndrome in my foot. A very rare, not well-understood chronic nerve pain issue that was threatening to keep me debilitated for the rest of my life. The MDs I had were at a loss for how to help. I am a dancer, and extremely active in my hobbies so to say the prospect of not being able to move freely or use my foot again was terrifying and traumatizing, is a gross understatement. In my first acupuncture session with her, I went from not being able to touch ANYTHING to my foot, to being able to place it on the floor of my car (which was previously unendurable due to the vibrations, pressure, and swelling from not being elevated) and drive myself over an hour to one of my favorite places. It was like a miracle. Every time I had a session with her, my baseline would improve immediately, and those changes would hold. When people ask me what treatments made the most difference, the two answers I give are acupuncture from "this truly extraordinary practitioner named Krishna", and an anti-inflammatory diet. I deeply believe I would not have recovered without her, and to be frank, that thought terrifies me on behalf of all the people who do not have the chance to receive help from her or someone like her. That was just the effect of the acupuncture. She also did several Psych-K sessions with me over the years. The Psych-K is one of the coolest treatments I have ever had (and I've had a lot). It is amazing, and so relieving to have an experience that cuts so deeply be transformed so that those emotions are processed. I would leave feeling like an elephantine weight was lifted from my shoulders. Around that time, I was having a lot of issues with my mom. Lots of love, but something in our relationship was off and causing some very big problems. We did the relationship balancing Psych-K together (although you don't need both parties for it to work), and it made a world of difference. Of course, our relationship work is still ongoing, but that session was a huge turning point. I live in a different state now, but every time I have an issue it is Krishna that I wish I could see. I am planning on doing some Psych-K sessions around recent issues over Zoom. All in all, I would recommend Krishna to anyone and everyone, she truly is an exceptional practitioner.

Krishna practices intuitive acupuncture - she relies on her intuition to determine which energy points to utilize and to determine what's appropriate for you at the moment. I went in to see her last week and I really appreciated the warmth and calmness in her space. She asks specific questions throughout to further guide her. For me she also used sound healing with tuning forks. I found that I fell asleep and woke up not even knowing where I was for a moment. I left feeling totally refreshed and calm and her recommendation of a blend of herbs has really eliminated a cough that I've had. Great referrals for her are massage therapists and chiropractors that see MVA patients.
