I was referred by a friend to go to Hado. I've never done acupuncture or cupping. I must admit I was skeptical. Conclusion the pain lessened tremendously. I booked another appointment before I left. She knows her stuff She targets the source read more

I enjoyed meeting Minerva I first went to her for back and neck pain following an accident about 10 years ago. Recently I started having some arthritic issues severe pains in my foot and knee and in one day with her injections my pain is gone I can walk normally what a blessing it is to find such a powerful and professional healer I would recommend her to everyone. read more

I have been seeing Minerva Hanson since 2019 and she is incredible in her craft of acupuncture and healing. I saw her as a recommendation from a pain management Dr at Evergreen Medical. I am so grateful for that recommendation ! I could barely walk due to a horrific problem in my lower back and she got me on my feet again in a few visits. I am truly blessed to have Minerva as my acupuncturist and I tell anyone reading this that needs pain relief, she's your girl to heal you. I currently seeing her for a numb hand and wrist issue I've had for over 20 years. She added a treatment for whiplash recovery and today I had that first treatment, I am already feeling relief. She's compassionate and so easy to talk to. Her main concern is to make her clients feel at ease and healthier then when they first walked in. This is an actual client. KimF. read more

I have seen Minerva many times for low energy and digestive problems. The acupuncture and Chinese herbs helped me so much. At one point during my treatment period, I broke a toe and couldn't put much weigh on the foot without pain. After two treatments with Minerva in a weeks time, I was back at the gym climbing stairs and jogging on the treadmill so I could continue training for a race. I honestly wouldn't have believed it, unless I experienced it for myself! read more

I have been seeing Minerva off and on over 4 years so when I had a recent shingles outbreak she was one of my first calls. She stopped the outbreak in it's tracks and got me quickly on the path to recovery in record time. I have also gotten treatment from Minerva for body & joint pains, stress and irregular periods. read more

If it hadn't happened to me, I would find it hard to believe. But they say experience is the greatest teacher, and I have experienced phenomenal results in my life from Hado Health's encoded Hado Water. I have recently reopened my content marketing company. I asked Minerva to imprint water for me with frequencies that would support me quadrupling my previous income. In roughly one month, that had happened. And clients were finding ME! I didn't have to advertise for a single client. Now, I do good work for my clients, so it's not like the water is a genie lamp. But for the first time in my 10-year history of being self-employed, I'm being paid what I'm worth, clients are flocking to me, and I'm getting to work on projects that are fun and interesting. Obviously, as soon as I ran out of that water, I ordered more. What a small investment for a huge payout. Plus, Minerva is the BEST!!! She is such a natural healer and intelligent practitioner. read more

Minerva is quite literally a miracle worker. I don't know how, but she knew exactly how to treat me. I have dealt with neuropathy issues in my legs since I was about 6, and so walking had always been a challenge, especially after around 4 or 5 pretty invasive surgeries. I talked to Minerva and immediately she recommended neural therapy into my scar tissue. I had no idea what that was. when I looked it up, I realized it's a highly studied and effective treatment, one that I am shocked I had not heard of. we went for it and almosy right away I noticed a difference. I was shocked by how quickly it had an impact on me. not to mention Minerva's kindness and compassion. you will not come across someone with as much knowledge in the study as her. I highly highly recommend her and will be going back. read more

Minerva is the best! Acupuncture was recommended to me during a period of intense stress, to help me relax and cope better. I noticed improvement for sure - less tension and relief from physical pains. One day I went in to my regular appointment with the beginnings of a migraine, and she was able to immediately relieve the pain, and the migraine was gone! It felt like magic but it is skill, because she's managed to resolve quite a lot of other issues with similar speed. It's amazing. Apart from acupuncture, Minerva helps treat other issues, taking a whole-body, integrated approach to her work. I've had great luck with her vitamin B injections, which give me energy and help control my appetite. She is pleasant and easy to talk to. She doesn't accept my particular insurance, but her rates are very reasonable, and there's none of the hard sell that I've experienced at other places. read more

This was my first experience with acupuncture and I was pleasantly surprised by how relaxing efficient and helpful this treatment was. Minerva is so nice and approachable and I highly recommend her and her practice . Plus those heated beds are amazing ! read more

Minerva is a living Angel. She takes acupuncture to a whole new level. When you have your appointments with Minerva they are not just regular acupuncture appointments. That is just one slice of the pie. She uses a variety of healing modalities that, in my opinion, when used as a team altogether it just amplifies your ability to heal. I originally went in for intense shoulder pain. After 3 months of acupuncture, psych K, frequency water, FSM, dry needles, herbs, etc. I am happy to report I have no more pain! I have decided to continue to see her for weekly maintains because I whole heartedly believe in her abilities to put the body and mind in an optimal state for healing. In my opionion, her services are worth every penny. She is wonderful to be around, learn from, and talk to. A wealth of information and importantly, she is someone who is safe to process and heal from physical and emotional traumas that are stored in the body. I highly recommend you work with Minerva, you will not be disappointed! read more

My 13 year old daughter was experiencing anxiety, suddenly and frequently. After many heart to heart talks and trying to get to the bottom of it, I was stumped. I happen to talk to Minerva about it, and she explained psychK and a particular type of water she sold, and explained it in great detail. We started with the water, and noticed a drastic improvement, in just a few weeks. My daughter then had a session with Minerva for spychK. By the end of the month, with drinking the prescribed water and one session for psychK, my daughter had no more symptoms of anxiety. She was a little skeptical at first, but was willing to try, and needless to say, my daughter is now 100% happy she did. This is a perfect, natural , mental health prescription! read more

I was referred to Minerva by a friend after I was kicked by a horse and had stitches across the back of my hand. After several weeks of healing I could barely grasp items due to the scar tissue that was forming. Minerva was excited to help and knew just what procedure would help restore my hand. She did 4 rounds of injections into my hand around the scar to break up adhesions that were limiting motion in my hand. After three weeks my hand has all the range of motion back and most of it's strength. I am completely amazed by her knowledge, care and expertise. I had no idea there was a scar therapy to help with mobility. I also had acupuncture that aided healing. I highly recommend Minerva. She has a wide variety of knowledge and treatments that she offers. read more

Minerva is incredible; she healed my neck injury in only 2 treatments. I had fallen on my neck/back, and had pain and restricted movement for months. I had tried treating with massage and chiropractic and that had helped but it wasn't until Minerva's acupuncture, cupping and injections that I feel now almost completely healed. My sister is going to see her for some other chronic injuries now too. So grateful that she was able to help me when other avenues seemed to stall out. Thank you! read more

I had no idea Acupuncture could treat allergies! I've had seasonal allergies since 4th grade. Minerva cured my allergies with one treatment in the early spring. I returned the following year for another successful treatment. Since being treated my Minerva- I've had 2 seasons without allergy meds. I used to take prescription antihistamines, allergy shots as a kid, over the counter meds, nose spray, eye drops, neti-pot, even benadryl cream for itchy blotchy skin from pulling weeds! It's really amazing to be cured after soooo many years. Minerva even says she has non-needle treatments for children. I highly recommend seeking acupuncture and Minerva has a great manner. Very gentle, calm, and trustworthy. read more

Minerva Henson is an amazing Acupuncturist, as she takes care of all my clients on the Eastside. I sell Health Insurance and often have people ask me for providers. They always call me back thanking me for sending me to her...it's refreshing to hear such positive experiences from everyone I have sent to her. She is caring and very good at working through pain management to help get to the core of an issue, not just treating the symptoms. Its free to give her a call and wont pressure you into anything. read more

The world needs more people like Minerva. I can truly say I wouldn't be here without her healing and guidance the past 2 years. I was raised not believing in natural or alternative medicine but after hitting many road blocks with surgery, prescriptions and medical specialists- I was curious to seek out accupuncture. I originally came to Minerva to treat severe allergies. I had chronic sinus infections every month, took 4-6 allergy pills a day and weekly shots with very little relief. I had sinus surgery and although had some relief wasn't getting what I needed. After doing my initial whole body and mind consult with Minerva we found many things we could work on together beyond just allergies. I had been struggling with anxiety after losing my father at a young age that was impacting my relationships; years of over prescribed antibiotics lead to several food intolerances and digestion issues; and was told from an early age by doctors I would struggle to get pregnant. Minerva approached every issue with compassion, understanding and always met me where I was at in that moment. After a couple sessions I felt relief from allergies and in two years haven't had a single sinus infection and no longer take allergy pills. I was able to have a successful healthy full term pregnancy even with hereditary and diagnosed preeclampsia- and my baby is healthy and happy! Minerva also used Psych K with me to help change my sub conscious to deal with anxiety around losing my Dad. We have used the foundation of that practice to also help shape my mindset to deal with adversity and challenges in my life. I feel less anxious and haven't had a panic attack since. Early this year, Minerva helped me heal from an accident where my liver was severally damaged and my life was in jeopardy. After I was medically cleared-Doctors told me it would take a year or more to fully heal. I believe with Minerva's help I made nearly a full recovering in 6 months and now a year later in the best physical, spiritual and mental shape of my life. Minerva has changed my life and I will forever be grateful for her healing energy and guidance. If you are considering Accupuncture- just go see Minerva she will help you get set up in the right direction and you won't regret it. read more

It had been about 9 years since I had been to an acupuncturist. I thought the one I had been to before was great and Minerva surprised me by being even better. She took her time to get to know everything I had going on and focused on my most pressing needs with care and attention. She explained everything she was doing and followed up throughout the visit to make sure I was doing well. I have since referred 2 other people to her and they had rave reviews as well. If you are in need of an acupunturists for the first time or just need the best you should definitely go and see Minerva at Eastside Acupuncture. read more

I have been to Eastside Acupuncture 5 times now, being treated for insomnia. Its amazing the results were very pronounced. I feel much more relaxed and peaceful and enjoy much improved nights sleep. Thanks Minerva! read more

Treated my son for seasonal allergy & it worked! She's very kind, caring, & very knowledgeable!.

I worked with Minerva of Eastside Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine for about 8 months in 2015 and I am so pleased with the level of care I received. Being new to acupuncture, I was not sure what to expect. Minerva immediately put me at ease and I started feeling relief even after my very first appointment. I decided to seek out acupuncture after being diagnosed with PCOS, a hormone imbalance, and was recommended to have regular acupuncture in order to help regulate my hormones. I started seeing Minerva once weekly for about 8 months, but noticed my hormones starting to regulate after about 3 months. All in all, Minerva's practice was very helpful to me. She helped me regulate my hormones and after 8 months I fell pregnant. I recommend Eastside Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine for acupuncture. Minerva is wonderful at helping you reach your goals through her acupuncture practice. read more

About a year and a half ago my back went out and I was bed ridden for three days. My friend recommended me to Minerva and I haven't had a problem since. Every time it starts to act up I let her know and the pressure is gone by the end of my appointment. After she fixed my back she also noticed that I had digestive problems and my skin irritation was a symptoms not the problem. I had been seeing various doctors for over the last ten years. They all said that it was a skin issue but couldn't find away to fix/heal it. After talking with Minerva and fallowing her advise I was finally able to get it under control with in weeks. She has been right about how my body is going to react to things every time. I also found that the acupuncture helps with my ADHD, my focus and time management are better since I started seeing her. She was also able to help one of my daughters with her restless leg syndrome. Minerva was so respectful to her and listened to all of her concerns about needles (my daughter hates them). There was no coercion and my daughter felt safe in knowing that she was heard and could say stop at any time. Minerva also taught her which pressure points to rub if she started having problems again. She uses minimal needles with maximum effect. read more

Minerva is a miracle worker. She has changed my professional/personal life with her amazing talents and skills. Not only is she talented, she is an inspiring woman to chat with as well. I highly enjoy my time with Minerva. You will too. read more

MInerva is a treasure. She has helped me with many health issues over the years and has proven herself to be knowledgeable and a strong part of my health care plan. I wouldn't want to settle for less, thanks Minerva! read more

Minerva is a wonderful acupuncturist. She made sure that I knew what was going to happen during our session and made me feel very comfortable. I noticed relief after my very first treatment and it only got better as I continued. I can't thank Minerva enough for all the help she's given me. read more

Minerva took the time and asked a lot of questions to really find out what the possible root cause could be for my issue. Over the course of the last 3 years, I have seen Minerva many times and she has always been very professional and wanting to make sure that she help resolve the reason for being there. I tore my Achilles last October and we have treated that with acupuncture and also cupping to rejuvenate the blood in that area. Thank you Minvera read more

First let me say that I'm not a real acupuncture type of gal. I work in the health care industry and have always been dubious about the value Eastern medicine provides, but I can't say enough good things about Minerva. She helped me several years ago with lower back pain, getting me to a place where I could run again! More recently I went to her with a debilitating headache. She made time for me immediately and worked with me over the course of 2 weeks to get me functional again. She's extremely honest - she'll let you know if your problem is something structural (chiropractor) or better treated through traditional medicine. She isn't interested churning you through appointments just making you better. I loved that she explained all procedures to me in a way I could understand and looked for my input each step of the way. She truly cares about her patients, following up personally with phone calls or emails to make sure you're doing well. I would recommend Minerva and Hado Health to anyone without hesitation. read more

I just had my first experience with PSYCH-K, with Minerva, and I can't say enough about how amazing it was. She was attentive, thorough, and professional throughout the entire session, and I am amazed at how I feel. If you are stuck on something, either psychologically or even with a physical ailment, I wholeheartedly suggest giving PSYCH-K a try with Minerva! In just the one session, I feel like I have let go of 30 years worth of junk (guilt and resentment mainly)... While there is still work to do, it was so refreshing to get this fresh start into a new direction without having to divulge or talk about my past like talk-therapy and psychoanalysis require. Thank you so much Minerva! I'm so excited to continue this amazing work! read more

A short time ago I was working out and tweaked my lower back, which resulted in my pain level at an all time high. At work the next day I could barely walk or sit down. I called Minerva that day to schedule an appointment for treatment. Going into her office my pain level was around an 8. I walked out feeling relieved, with my pain level down to a comfortable five. Minerva contacted me the next day which was a Saturday and upon hearing my pain was still high, offered to try a new technique on me. That day I went in with my pain level higher again around a 6-7. These techniques she used on me were all natural, targeting points to release natural opium's in my body. I walked out that day and my pain level was between 0-1. I can not say enough how incredible this treatment is. I am so happy I did not have to self medicate myself with drugs. Rather, my body was naturally able to heal itself. In my opinion, this injury would have had a normal recovery time of 6-10 weeks. Incredibly, I was back at the gym pain free in five days. I would absolutely recommend Minerva Henson to anyone and everyone. I know there are skeptics about this treatment, as I myself once was. I am a TRUE BELIEVER now! I highly recommend this type of treatment to alleviate any and all pain symptoms. read more

Minerva has a great bedside manner, very calming and likable. Went for a total of 9 visits but resolved both of my issues after 7 sessions.

Three times in the last couple of years I have felt awful enough to seek acupuncture help. Thank goodness Minerva was there for me. In just a couple of sessions she relieved back and shoulder pain and in another she put an end to a headache that I endured for almost two weeks. She successfully treated my leg for weakness and pain in the knee. Another time she prescribed some Chinese herbs for blood pressure control. She is very knowledgeable and caring, and thorough in her interviews to to plan her approach to your treatment. I always recommend her whole heartedly because she is there for you! read more

I worked with Minerva on fertility issues and throughout my pregnancy. She not only took the time to understand my health history, but she proved very effective immediately. Her compassion and knowledge make a wonderful mix in a provider, especially now days when so many doctors have less time to spend listening to their patients. When working with her on fertility, she decreased my cycle length times which ended up helping us get pregnant. She did this in only a couple months' time. I started seeing her in March and was pregnant by July. In addition, I saw her throughout my pregnancy. She helped immensely with decreasing and alleviating nausea through the first and third trimesters. She also worked on digestive and pregnancy insomnia issues. In the end, I had a very fast labor and recovery, which I believe was due to a lot of her work. I would highly recommend her for any care, not just fertility and pregnancy. Her commitment to patients is amazing. read more
