We've been going to Traci for a couple years now and she has always been amazing for us. Recently I…read moretweaked my back overdoing it as many of us do and I couldn't walk standing straight up I was in so much pain. Well she got me in and by the end of my visit I was able to stand straight up with very little pain and within a day had no pain just soreness in my lower back. Thanks so much Traci! You're a life saver!! Highly recommend to anyone looking for relief in their life!!

I love, love, love Gainesville Holistic Healthcare! I had a fall back in October that resulted in…read moreseveral scars on my face. One was a dime-sized bump above my upper lip that was itchy, red, sensitive, and ugly. It was so painful that I couldn't even go over it with a washcloth and it stuck out so far that you could see it from the side. My other bad scar area was actually inside my bottom lip. This scar was tight and I didn't have any feeling at all in half of my bottom lip. I went to Gainesville Holistic Healthcare to check out microcurrent point stimulation (MPS). The staff there worked with me to find a routine that worked for me. I ended up going twice a week for 15 minutes each to manage all of my scars. By the end of the first month, the scar above my upper lip was flat, less red, and not painful at all anymore. The scar inside my bottom lip was pretty abnormal, but Traci worked with me to find the best protocol. By November, I finally started to get feeling back in my bottom lip, and the scars didn't feel nearly as tight. I seriously can't express how great this place is. The staff are all nice, welcoming, and extremely accommodating. Face injuries are so personal, and they were just as happy as I was every time I hit a new milestone in my healing. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else for my MPS treatments. By the way - their waiting room is awesome. It's full of paintings, jewelry, and candles by local artists, and most are for sale. They also have an awesome selection of natural remedies and CBD products. 10/10!!

Dr. Becky is a gift. She has an extraordinary talent for applying her vast knowledge of Chinese…read moremedicine to help solve medical issues in ways that continually fascinate me. I am lucky to be a healthy person. That said, I regularly see Dr. B to address my minor age-related issues. Happily, it's working quite well. I heard about Dr. B from a good friend and was curious. I had the beginning of arthritis in my fingers, so I made an appointment. During my initial exam, she touched the right side of my body and said she felt an injury. The injury was 11 broken ribs and a punctured lung from a car accident many decades ago. She said she felt scar tissue, and inflammation. And, my body was off alignment. She did her magic with a concert of acupuncture, cupping and massage. And sure enough I felt lighter and more flexible. My feet & hands were always cold at night. She said I had circulation issues. She always works on this when I see her. I no longer have cold feet. I have ongoing treatment for my fingers for early arthritis. Her treatment consists of a variety of needles, manipulation, small cupping, and massage. My hands feel pretty normal now. However, I have one finger that is always particularly painful. Dr. B did a deep dive treatment using various needles. She said wait 2 days for the pain to be gone. And sure enough she was right. Dr. B is very creative with a high level of expertise. I am amazed by her sensitivity to my body. Her diagnostic skills are remarkable. She continually surprises me with her range of knowledge. My goal is to fine-tune any existing issues and hopefully preempt potential problems. She is a healer.

Dr. Lian is a master and that distinction is instantly recognizable…read more Before becoming a patient myself, I brought my father in as an alternative to physical therapy and a second back surgery. After the initial surgery was ineffective, the physical therapy seemed only to make matters worse. My father would experience intense chronic pain, loss of balance and coordination, and be in constant fear of falling and at risk for injury. His mental well-being was also negatively impacted as a consequence. I sat in for my father's first two sessions with Dr. Lian. Within minutes the doctor pin-pointed the exact locations upon my father's body that required treatment. Dr. Lian will see what typical radiological examinations can reveal by just a touch and her naked eye. Dr. Lian is remarkable and incredibly skilled. It is obvious that she has devoted her life to the healing of others and takes each day to heart toward the fulfillment of this purpose. Immediately after his first session with Dr. Lian, my father's results were astounding. And since, my father's chronic pain has greatly subsided, his balance has improved tremendously, and his attitude has shifted positively. After a few weeks of my father's treatments and bearing witness to Dr. Lian's expert prowess, the rest of our family has since decided to go for treatments. All of us are convinced and Dr. Lian's ability should not be taken lightly. Her brilliance is quite special and she, herself, worth cherishing.

Bodies In Balance is pretty much my sanctuary. I was referred here by a friend a year ago. I'd…read morenever had acupuncture so I was a little nervous of the unknown and put it off for a little. I ended up going to see Carlos and I was pretty stressed out at the time. The 1st appt is the longest where they go through your full medical history, anything causing stress, pain, etc. Carlos suggested I try at least 3 appts to start so he could get a good "clearing" and see where to go from there. I know you can't expect a complete life change from 1 appt so I told him I was committed to going on a regular basis to try and help myself. I'm personally an insomniac and the stress was making things worse to where I couldn't shut my brain off at all. The first round during the appt I was still pretty stressed so he did another round to bump me into relaxation. I actually fell asleep and he left me to relax and sleep for a while. I'm not kidding you when I say I walked out of my first appt with energy, feeling rejuvenated and in a better headspace all together! The needles don't hurt and if you have a fear of needles I still think you can benefit from acupuncture because it's not like getting blood drawn or anything like that. Carlos is a true professional and absolutely amazing at what he does. I've been coming here for a long time now and if you are a regular they have a monthly membership that makes things even more cost efficient. I can notice a difference if I've had to reschedule an appt and don't make my every 2wk mark. This has helped my stress, migraines, health in general and so much more. I can't tell you how much this has helped me and I know it can do the same for anyone who comes here. Call them up and make an appt, their hours and days are pretty flexible to fit any schedule.

The very best acupuncturist in Gainesville! She is not only an acupuncturist but a doctor of…read moreTraditional Chinese Medicine. I have been seeing her since 1997, almost every other week. What makes her stand out is how her treatments have an immediate relief! I have seen many acupuncturists for more than 30 yeas and none have her skills, expertise and kindness. Her bedside manner is unmatched. She is gentle, caring and compassionate and very knowledgeable. Never pushes you in receiving any treatments you don't want. She also pairs acupuncture with Infra Red Therapy and a trans-cutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) unit by delivering small electrical impulses through the needles; then employs cupping, a most relaxing and healing modality tat stimulates oxygenation and blood circulation. It never fails to take away any pain and inflammation. Additionally,she teaches Tai-Chi and QiGong free every Saturday at the Massey park by the tennis courts on NW 34th street. She takes insurance as well. She is truly a gem!

Chinese acupuncture is run by Min Li, the most caring and honest doctor I've ever seen. I've been…read moregoing to Min for about seven years. Having tried acupuncture before and failing to see its worth, when I first started seeing Min I was skeptical. After my first treatment I still wasn't sure acupuncture did anything, but I enjoyed the time I spent with Min - she was loving in a way most doctors aren't (or at least most doctors don't openly show care and concern on a first visit). She listened without judgement and never pushed a specific treatment but gave recommendations and discussed options that fit my lifestyle. After a few visits I started seeing real changes in my health and I've been seeing her ever since. I live two hours away from her office now, but I make the trip a few times a year or whenever I feel I need a treatment (or when I just miss her; she's become that close to me). Whether you've been getting acupuncture treatments for years or you are looking to try it for the first time, I highly recommend Min Li.

I booked a 75 minute massage for 4:30 but wasn't called into the room until about 4:45, and the…read moremassage didn't start until 4:50. It ended around 5:50, so I didn't receive the full time I paid for. The location also wasn't ideal during the massage, I heard two loud car alarms and an ambulance right outside the window, which made it hard to relax. While the masseuse was kind, the massage itself wasn't what I was looking for. I booked a lymphatic drainage massage but received more of a light, general massage with little pressure or technique. Considering the price (plus the generous tip I left), I was really disappointed overall. Unfortunately, I wouldn't return.

I first came here and had an appointment with Dr. Andrew. It went well, liked the way he adjusted…read moreme, listened to my concerns, and his thoroughness. After a couple sessions he mentioned the massage therapist and how it could help with my pain. So I booked an hour with Cathy. She is the sweetest lady I've met and is also very gentle and thorough. I usually like more pressure so I see their other therapist Griff. If you like someone with strong hands Griff is your guy. A few moths go by and life is great. Love my treatment plan, and have no complaints other than the front desk staffer is a bit curt. A few more months go by and I get into a car accident (Sept 2019). This was the worst, because my body was in so much pain. I go to my regularly scheduled massage and am told all my following doctors appointments must be cancelled until I see the doctor for a new initial visit. Okay, not too big of a deal right? WRONG! The next appointment the doctor has available is 3 weeks away! Mind you- I'm in immense pain and am so stiff from the accident. I had a last appointment of the day with Dr. Andrew on the books (previously scheduled) and asked if we can just make that my "new initial visit" appointment. Apparently the new initial appointment visit is a 45 min appointment and my previous booking was only 30. So, you assume I've been seeing Dr. Andrew for over a year now and he just stays the extra 15 mins that day and sees me, right? WRONG AGAIN! I even ask the receptionist to speak with the doctor and explain the predicament to see if he can make this change and help me with the pain I'm in.... nope- answer is no. Well, you can only imagine how upsetting that is. So my adjustments get cancelled for 3 weeks straight until I can see Dr. Andrew for this "new visit". A week and a half later I come in for my normally scheduled massage and am told I cannot see Griff, because I have not done the new patient visit. I'm confused & dying inside because I've been looking forward to this massage for 2 weeks, so I can get some relief from the pain and stiffness I am in. Well this same not so lovely, terrible customer service, front desk staffer tells me I cannot see anyone until this "new visit". What?!? If you knew that 2-weeks ago why did you not tell me that upfront and cancel this appointment, instead of letting me go out of my way to get off early and show up for it!?!? Well at this point I start seeing Emrys (another massage therapist) more and tell him when he is being too hard on me. He is very good a therapeutic masseuse and that is what my body needed. Things are dandy for a few weeks, until I call and have to make some adjustments to my previously scheduled appointments. Found out insurance isn't covering some stuff so I had to cut back on massages and adjustments for the rest of the year. No biggie, cancelled some and re-booked others. Came in today for my end of the day appointment with Emrys and the front desk staffer looks at me and asks why I'm there. I say for my appointment, as she says "we don't have you on the books today". Uhhh what?! I double check my calendar and yep- there it is. She says that all my appointments were cancelled. So I was not going to be seen this week or in two weeks when I had my other appointment I made over the phone. All of this was said with little to no remorse or consideration. Call me crazy, but I was about to lose my mind. I have now been coming here for almost 2 years and am just blown off with a "that's not my fault and those appointments have been booked for someone else" - what?!?! I cannot even believe that this was happening or that it was all being handled so lightly. At this point I don't even know what to do. On the one hand I love the chiropractor and massage therapist, but cannot stand the treatment I receive from the front desk staff.

I trust her to know what I need even when I don't know myself.
