My husband, daughter and I have all received acupuncture services from Karen and she has made a huge impact on our life. My husband has multiple medical issues from service in the USMC (TBI/PTSD/orthopedic issues) and a limb amputation from a MVA. She has improved his PTSD symptoms significantly- which were hugely impacting his daily life. He has also seen significant improvements in his pain levels for orthopedic injuries,chronic headaches and phantom limb pain. I have seen Karen for stress and chronic migraines and she made a big difference in just 2 sessions! I am looking forward to life returning to a new normal so that we can return for our treatments with Karen. She is a true healer. read more

Karen is a life-changing healer and a fascinating person. She genuinely strives to improve your health in every aspect. The Escondido Healing Center is located in Karen's welcoming and comfortable home. Her home is clean, inviting, calming, and a place to escape back to nature. Karen is incredibly professional and well-educated. I felt like a true priority, and, for the first time in years, as though I have a true champion in my corner to help me overcome my health barriers. I visited Karen for my first treatment to alleviate chronic neck and back pain (from injuries, stress, and tension) as well chronic migraines (average of 23 days a month). Karen practiced Gua Sha, cupping, and acupuncture. I could feel the change in my body as she worked from one side to the other. The tension literally dropped. She is amazing! read more

Escondido Acupuncture Wellness is a great company if you're looking to recover from past sports injuries. I learned that acupuncture could fade scars and actually help the tissue behind the scar heal. After seeing Karen at a networking event and hearing many testimonials of how her patients have healed from a variety of injuries and emotional stresses, I had to try it. It turns out that acupuncture does not hurt, even with tiny needles involved! She also can pull toxins out of your body with a special treatment using glass cups. Highly recommended. A+ read more

Escondido Healing Center is a place of true authentic healing. If you have never experienced a healer that assess the full picture, look no further, Karen is your answer. Karen's astute awareness makes you feel comfortable and absolutely cared for. Most people will think that it's necessary to go through a more traditional medical route to get their symptoms cured, this is where Karen and her approach pinpoints the source, stopping the symptoms before they can occur, giving the status quo a run for their money. Her attention to detail and holistic approach will have you asking the question, "why didn't I reach out sooner?" I feel like it is my duty to spread the positivity that Karen has gifted me in my life and the healing process. read more

When I first met Karen I knew she was an amazing healer. Now she has become more than that to me, she is a friend, and her work amazes me. Her place is very cozy and she plays relaxing music during your treatment and while you wait. Please know it does not hurt, but the needles you really need may cause minor discomfort if you are a first timer. But the results are SO worth it! When I first came to her I was having daily headaches for years. Now with diet changes and her work, I don't have to have that pain anymore and I'm very thankful. I also had bad allergies from moving here out of state that are no longer an issue. Currently she is working on some sciatica type pain with me now & it's amazing how quickly it can make a difference. Acupuncture has made such a difference in my life & it's great to find someone that is so professional & caring. Don't hesitate to try it because it's so worth it!! read more

Karen is a gifted healer! I've been to many types of healers and Karen has a natural ease and grace with her work. You feel safe and cared for from the moment you walk in. She takes her time to understand the root cause of your pain and leads you to a place of healing and health. I had chronic frozen shoulder, unable to move or lift my right arm and after just three visits my pain was gone and it hasn't come back! That was about a year ago. I would recommend anyone who has chronic pain not to wait another day to see Karen. She's is highly skilled, trained and truly gifted!! read more

I'm so thankful to have found Karen. Her home office is tranquil and comforting. She was able to treat my digestive issues successfully after years of seeing MDs and other western medicine with no change. Karen really cares and is very thorough with her exams and questions to ensure she has the whole picture. She has even opened her door to me on the weekend when I was in pain and needed her healing. I truly appreciate having her in my life and I can honestly say you will not regret trying her healing out. read more

Karen is THE ultimate healer. I went in for anxiety and I left with no anxiety :-)......then a couple of months later suddenly I realized my usual agonizing female monthly cramps had barely been noticeable since I had been seeing her.

I am a military veteran that has suffered with anxiety and depression because of PTSD. After many failed attempts with different counselors, two of my closest friends recommended that I go see Karen. I will never forget my incredible experience with her! During my session, Karen remained focus, compassionate and insightful. After my appointment, I felt like a NEW person; internally rejuvenated! She is a natural healer and I HIGHLY recommend her!! If you get the chance, please go check out her website! She has a variety of healing methods! You will NOT be disappointed! read more

Karen is a dream come true. I have been suffering from arthritis in my hands and neck for several years. I also have a rotator cuff pain. I began seeking help from my doctor (there's nothing we can do about it) to several chiropractors (no reduction in the pain, but I bought a lot of supplements). I decided to give acupuncture a go. I began to research local acupuncturists in the area on line and when I came to Karen's site I knew this was it. I wanted personal, individual treatment with a healthy dose of spiritualism. My first visit with Karen was wonderful. She took time to investigate my issues before beginning any treatment. She went in depth into my current health status and, yes, she did feel my pulse in my wrists. It is amazing what she can determine by feeling your pulse. In my first session, Karen did some exploratory treatments and ended with cupping on my back. At the end of that first session, my pain had subsided considerably. We moved forward with a session each week. Karen would keep fine tuning the acupuncture to reduce the pain by finding new areas for treatment. Now, I am virtually pain free and plan on a quarterly treatment with Karen to keep the pain away. Indeed, this woman is a skilled acupuncturist, but is also the genuine article. She lives the life of a healer and uses her considerable knowledge to heal her patients. The atmosphere in her studio is warm, relaxing and safe. I am blessed to have found a healer such as Karen and she has enriched my life not only through acupuncture, but also her spirit. read more

I have had chronic and acute hip pain in my right leg. I am a very active person in work and play. Hip surgery scares the hell out of me. Anyways, I saw Karen just one time and her complete and caring assessment of my health issuess and knowledgeable and professional conduct proved to be the key to my relief! During the accupuncture session I felt as if a magniifcent wave of energy was being released down my right leg and out through my foot. It was incredible! I was feeling that the left side needed that too and without even asking she popped back into the room and said that was what she was going to do! She is a true healer and I highly recommend her and would definetly bring my wife and children to see her if need be. Thanks Karen!!!! read more

I've been seeing Karen for a few months now, and I never cease to be amazed with her work. I've benefitted from both acupuncture and herbal remedies. It's always so interesting to see how Karen researches and arrives at the property treatment for my specific problems. I don't understand how it works, but it does work. Go in and try it! Give it time. I'm confident you'll be just as amazed as I am. read more

Karen has been a great find. I picked up a flu bug while family was visiting and I could not get the fever to break. Within the first treatment I felt significantly better. Karens' skill, intuition, compassion and humor add up to one great healer. read more

Karen has a gift for healing. You can tell her training, passion, and years of practice make her beyond capable of helping clients with any ailments/issues they may have. I personally went in for pain in my neck and shoulder and later returned for emotional healing which she was able to make a huge difference just after one treatment. I would highly recommend you book an appointment with her today. read more

My guess is, you will connect and establish a healing relationship for many years to come. read more

I have had lower back pain for about 5 years. After seeing several doctors with no relief as to why I was even having this pain I decided to try acupuncture. Karen was really detailed in asking questions. Just by feeling my pulse she would ask questions about other symptoms I was having but had no idea they were related to my back pain. The pain and other symptoms were almost gone after just one visit. By visit number 2 I felt pain free! I had forgotten what it felt like to have a back with no pain! She was also honest in telling me that I should try certain over the counter vitamins as opposed to herbal supplements because they were cheaper. She really looks out for the best interest of her patient. Before going to Escondido Acupuncture Wellness I didn't really understand what acupuncture was. I had many questions and Karen took the time to answer ALL of them. She if very easy to talk to, friendly and upbeat. Acupuncture is very relaxing and effective. Try it with Karen first! read more

Many, many thanks to Karen! I am new to acupuncture treatment and the results have been immediate. Her treatment is thorough, all-encompassing and comforting. She comes highly recommended! read more

I came to Karen a month ago for my Irritable Bowel Syndrome after suffering with it for 8 years. In one month of treatment, I've cut my daily medication in half because of the improvements in how I feel, and my stress/anxiety associated with my IBS has decreased tremendously. All this progress in such a short time when doctors have told me in the past that there's nothing they can do. Through acupuncture, herbs, and a commitment to the diet she prescribed me, I'm watching my digestive issues improve and my enjoyment for life increase. Coming to see Karen is honestly one of the best things I've ever done for my health and over all well-being. She is a compassionate, caring, and knowledgeable acupuncturist as well as a wonderful human being. I cannot recommend her enough. If you have any thoughts about whether acupuncture can help you, set up a meeting with Karen. I had no idea acupuncture could make such an impact on my health and my life. read more
