A few years ago I came home early from a trip because of terrible shoulder and back pain. I tried…read moreto find an appointment before I got on the plane. No luck! Then I saw the reviews for Dr. Belnap on Yelp & lo and behold he was able to fit me in the week I returned . After looking at x rays of my shoulder and back from years ago & examining me he sent me to get an MRI . I was relieved it was an MRI and not a CAT scan as they have been shown to increase your chances of getting cancer. The MRI place he recommended was able to get me in for the next week.. my co-pay was under $100 for my back and my shoulder . Soon after this I saw Dr. Belnap again & he gave me a cortisone injection in my shoulder and some medication which helped greatly . A few months later the same in my back ! Last year I somehow hurt my back so badly I could barely walk. Once again, he was able to fit me in quickly and gave me an injection, which helped somewhat. However, it was Christmas holidays and I was going away for a special celebration and my back couldn't handle it. He was able to fit me in during the holiday season quickly, gave me an epidural and I was able to go and be fine. he's very caring and and we'll do whatever he can to help.

Even now, my mother-in-law still talks about Dr. Kumar and how much he helped her. The staff was just as incredible -- friendly, professional, and so supportive from start to finish.

Dr. Sachi is a good doctor, but my experience with the front office was disappointing. While trying…read moreto schedule Botox treatment for facial pain, I had a rude interaction with a staff member and the call ended abruptly. When I asked if there was a manager I could speak with, I was told there wasn't one available and no one ever followed up with me. Later I received a message saying Botox appointments were being paused due to insurance reimbursement issues and my appointment was canceled. I understand that insurance logistics can be complicated, but I would have appreciated at least being offered the option to self-pay, especially since I know the office has offered Botox as a self-pay treatment before. I respect Dr. Sachi and the care provided, but I hope the communication and patient experience on the administrative side improves so other patients don't have a similar experience.

My stress level was also very high. Mieko has done acupuncture to relax the nervous system and then to heal the arms. She also worked on my back and shoulders. To top that, she gave me possibly the best massage I ever got on my back and shoulders. Wow. Within 1 session my pain was down 80% and I was able to work again. After the second session the pain went away completely. Amazing. I now go to Meiko once a week for as long as my work load is high to be able to support my body with this additional load. Mieko is very gentle and caring individual. She is passionate about helping people and she is very knowledgeable. Her acupuncture and massage combination is unique and it's a winning combination. You leave there feeling relaxed and revitalized. Can't thank Mieko enough for her good work. Give her a try, you will not regret it.

She's the most open, warm and caring hearted person I've ever met. You will know what I mean when you meet her. Definite 5 stars! You will not regret going to her but I will say that she's ruined me because I can't be satisfied getting a massage anywhere else now.

With the money you'll spend with these people, you'll get twice as much and be treated like royalty somewhere else. I genuinely don't know what I did wrong. I simply express my physical needs, future nonprofit endeavors possibly involving their company (a nonprofit would pay for those in need to obtain their treatments), and I asked if anything could be offered to help myself, so I can be healthy enough to proceed with plans already in the works. I genuinely had ZERO expectations (except for normal communication). You will never know what could be, if you don't ask. Next thing you know, none of my messages are being responded to at all. At first the woman was super excited and acted as though, what we were discussing could be a real possibility. She seemed genuine. She asked me for my email address and then never got back to me and refuses to respond for the 2nd time. I'm not well enough to speak on the phone most of the time, so it's easier for me to text or email. She only wanted my email address so she could look up my Facebook. The one I gave her was not linked to my Facebook, but I still think she found it anyway. She only went looking because I thought she had seen it the first time she ghosted me. She had ghosted me previously and I was wondering if maybe she saw my Facebook and maybe that's why she stopped talking to me. I told her that's what I thought. I asked her if that was the reason why she stopped communicating the first time. THERE IS NOTHING CRAZY ON MY PRIVATE FB. She said no, she had not. This time around I think she wanted to check it out, but regardless it shouldn't matter. All it does, is let you know that I am half Mexican Indigenous, that I support our president, I am pro life... do you think this might have something to do with it? If anyone else experiences anything like this, please reach out to me. Personally, I won't allow companies to get away with this kind of discrimination anymore. Going public with a list of the companies that do this, is my next move.

Through a thoughtful and well-planned wellness protocol created by Dr. Marquiss (naturopathic doctor) and Evelyn (owner), I received IV treatments to reduce inflammation, EBOO therapy to cleanse my blood and stem cell treatments that supported my body's healing. My mobility has returned and I am functioning again. Before finding ECore Wellness, I tried countless treatments - epidurals, PRP, acupuncture, chiropractor care, massage, decompression, pain medication and even brain pain therapy. Nothing provided the relief that the protocol at ECore has given me. I'm incredibly grateful to Dr. Marquiss and Evelyn, who genuinely care about helping their patients heal. ECore Wellness is truly at the forefront of regenerative healing. If I could give them 10 stars I would. I highly recommend them.

However, having received CST from Carla years ago, I already knew how intuitive and talented she is, so I trusted the process and gave it a try. I'm still in awe of what was uncovered. There were things I didn't even realize my higher self was holding onto, and through Carla's gentle facilitation, I was able to become aware of these thoughts/beliefs, understand them differently, and begin the process of releasing what no longer serves me. I love how the process unfolded so simply, yet each session we did was deeply helpful and meaningful (I recommend doing at least 3 sessions, each one was like a layer that we could peel away). Sometimes we don't realize what we're carrying until we're given the space and awareness to see it. If you're curious but a little skeptical about distance work, I get it, I was too. My advice is simply to give it a try and stay open to what comes up. You may be surprised by what you discover. I'm so grateful for Carla's intuition, guidance, and ability to create such a supportive space for this level of healing.
