As a Chinese, I need to admit Heide is an exceptional healer, great listener, and incredibly knowledgeable herbalist of Chinese medicine. Her office is clean, friendly, and inviting. The fire room is warm and relaxing and I never feel rushed with Heide. She takes the time to get to know my symptoms after the previous visit and makes a treatment plan from there. Even my work stress can be relieved with her magical needles. Even though I've moved to San Francisco, I'd come back to visit her once a month. I would highly recommend Heide for anyone with a physical or emotional complaint. She will help you out!

She REALLY helped my daughter with her TMJ though. Kaiser didn't do anything at all for her TMJ. After one of my sessions, I brought up my daughter's condition and Heidi said she could help. She did more than help. She Completely took away the pain and discomfort for her in about 4 sessions. Thanks Heidi!

This review is loooong overdue! I've suffered with migraines off an on for over 10 years now. I…read morehad never tried acupuncture before but had several reccomendations for it to alleviate migraines. To be honest, I didn't think it was possible...until now. I started seeing Amanda over a year ago when my migraines became frequent, sometimes lasting days at a time. First I went in weekly, then bi-weekly and before I knew it voila! I couldn't remember the last time I'd had a bad migraine! It seememd months had gone by. Once I had things under control she recommended I could just come back for a "tune-up" as needed. Well, one year goes by before I realize the migraines seem to be coming back. I'm in a new job and feeling more stress. It wasn't until I had the three-day migraine that I knew needed Amanda again (what was I waiting for??). That was yesterday, and today, I feel 100% again. I don't want to say I believe in miracles but I now believe in acupuncture and it's healing capabilities. And even more, I believe in Amanda and the care and warmth she brings with her. She's one of those wonderful, nurturing people who don't just want to fix the problem on the surface but really wants to get to the cause and discuss what's most important: YOU. I get a good pep talk and acupuncture session all wrapped in to one little package. If you are even thinking about the possibility of trying acumpunture she is THE ONE to go to.

Amanda genuinely cares about your healing, well-being, and life in general. Not only did she focus on my neck pain, she addressed my allergies and other various symptoms as well. I've received many of the treatments she has to offer - you must experience cupping if you haven't yet! She is always willing to explain any technique she tries, which sets your mind at ease. The insurance process was also easy; Amanda went above and beyond taking care of my bills by faxing them to my insurance company herself. I always look forward to my appointments! Yay Amanda!

She knows how to make the room comfortable, the sheets soft, the heater just right if I need it to relax. She offers natural sounds or music. She uses Moxa on my feet because she knows it makes me even more relaxed at the end of a session. She is very attuned to my specific health/life style need: to learn to sleep naturally after years of insomnia and reliance on pills and CBD gummies. I am grateful to have a partner like Heather who is with me every step of the way in this complex life change. I cannot recommend Heather more highly!

I am so relaxed, I leave each session feeling like I am floating on a cloud. Usually, the next day I feel full of energy! Every week before our session she takes the time to diligently check in on all of my symptoms and see how I am doing. She has a wonderfully warm energy and I feel very comfortable with her. I have been to many acupuncturists over the years and Heather is the most gentle! With her needling technique, there is zero pain which makes a big difference for me. I can still feel them, but I am so much more able to relax trusting there will be no pain. It is clear that Heather genuinely cares about my health and improvement and I highly recommend her.

Dr. Mara is a naturally gifted healer. As someone who has suffered from various medical issues…read morethroughout my life I have had to rely on a variety of different doctors. As such, I can say with confidence that Dr. Mara is unique in her abilities to identify how the body is malfunctioning and heal these problems without hurting you. That is, she is truly a natural and gifted healer. Not all doctors are like this, she is unique. She uses a technique that I have never had used on me and it is noninvasive, gentle, and accurate. It was through this technique that she was able to accurately and quickly identify what was wrong with my body in order to create overall health. I came to her office with vertigo and left without it. As more time past after my appointment I felt more and more calm as I could tell my body was responding to her treatment. I hadn't had a moment of peace in over two years and she was able to stop my vertigo so I could eat, sleep, and heal. Additionally, her treatments also improved my skin even though I was not there for any skin treatments. I returned to her office two more times because my vertigo had returned due to a month long sickness of the flu. This time the vertigo wasn't as severe. She was once again able to calm my vertigo and just like the first time my body kept improving as time went on. I then returned one last time to ensure my body's overall health. Since then I have had zero symptoms. I am so thankful for her and her work. She is a blessing and I highly recommend her to anyone who is suffering from any ailment that others say cannot be healed. Please be kind and respectful to her as she treats you because she deserves it, it is what is right, and there aren't many people like her in the world. Thank you Dr. Mara for giving me my life back!

My experience with Dr. Kim was absolutely phenomenal!…read more I came to her for acupuncture ten days after having my baby with pretty severe Bell's palsy and I was desperate for any improvement to my face. The doctors in the emergency room were hopeful that it would clear up in a few months, but said it might not ever go back to normal. I came to Dr. Kim immediately after I was diagnosed and we got to work on treating the Bell's palsy. First, her office is immaculate--welcoming, clean, professional. She takes infection control/covid very seriously so she wore a mask the entire time she was treating me. I had never gotten acupuncture before and was pretty nervous when we began. She modified the treatment to my situation and my symptoms (I was a weenie when it came to the regular needles, so she used smaller ones on me). She always treated me with kindness and professionalism. Even though I'm not a big fan of needles, I looked forward to my treatments with Dr. Kim. It took some time to see improvements, but Dr. Kim did a great job at setting realistic expectations right off the bat. She said it might not happen right away, but I should see some improvement in the coming months. Within about a month, I was seeing significant improvement. In about ten weeks, I was 100% healed. It was absolutely remarkable. I was actually sad when I had my last treatment with her a few weeks back. She is such a remarkable practitioner and I would strongly recommend everyone to come see her for whatever ails you. Having Bell's palsy as a new mother was incredibly difficult, but Dr. Kim made the process really wonderful and healing. Thank you so much for your care and expertise, Dr. Kim! I am forever grateful!

My series of acupuncture sessions with Kim were calming, revitalizing and powerfully restorative…read more While giving my face some TLC was the central focus of the treatments, my entire being received care throughout, a huge bonus. My face loved the care and rejuvenation (noticeable benefits!), and I felt more resilient and healthier all around. Calming music, well-placed needles, the most relaxing face light (I just wanted to curl up in there and drift off on a fluffy relaxing cloud). Ahhhh. Sooo calming. In our first meeting and thereafter, Kim thoroughly evaluated my health and I could see her assessing how various parts of my health picture were connected. Because she works holistically, my emotional and spiritual wellbeing were part of what she was evaluating and bringing into the healing process. In addition to her many years of academic and practical training in Chinese Medicine, Kim uses her intuitive gifts as she works (also honed for many years). She gave me a valuable piece of information in an early treatment that helped me become aware of an allergic reaction I was having, and this helped me figure out how to reduce contact with the allergen (this was immensely helpful)! At my last session I kept thinking, I wish I lived closer! This year I might just make the commute anyway. She is (and I am) worth the trip.
