Mimi is one of the best healers I've met in my travels! She can help anyone who is open to the practice of acupuncture. Albert is the best body worker I've worked with! You're blessed to have discovered this place of healing. read more

My husband I have been going to Dr. Mimi Cortez for over 3 years and have followed her to Lamorinda Healing Arts and would continue to follow her anywhere she goes. I was never really open to acupuncture until a friend of ours recommended her and I don't think I can ever go to anyone else. She has really helped my constant shoulder pain and stress management and every time I return from visiting her I feel like a brand new person! I only wish I could go see her more often! From her flexibility in scheduling, her professionalism, to her actual treatments - she really has become part of our medical team and our most reliable, honest, and gentle provider. read more

Dr. Mimi is awesome! She has patiently helped me with EVERYTHING these past few years. Any ailment I may be experiencing or normal changes brought on by Menopause, she has helped me tackle. Not only is she a brilliant Acupuncturist she is a Naturopath!!!! It's a two for one! I get my treatments and good sound advice on how to manage my health naturally. I've referred her to many of my own clients and they all love her. She is also very helpful in fitting me into her busy schedule. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Mimi and her husband Albert for a combination of over a year. To say their treatments have been life changing is an understatement. Dr. Mimi takes time to learn about her patients and allows them to work through their needs/ailments, etc. She never pushes an agenda and allows the experience to be organic. The first few weeks you see her, everything you thought you know about yourself changes... For the better. It's hard to explain but all I can say is the acupuncture has changed my life and my family's for good. She establishes key principles of being strong physically and emotionally but also allowing yourself to be guided spiritually to wherever you need to be. Albert does my bodywork and has helped keep me physically grounded feeling stronger than ever. I've had bells palsy before and his treatments help the nerves in my face feel stronger and overall my body balanced. If you're new to acupuncture/bodywork, look no further than LaMorinda Healing Arts/Stillpoint Wellness. Or if it's been a while and need a change, pay them a visit. It'll be one of the best decisions you've ever made. read more

Dr. Mimi is amazing! She is well versed in all aspects of Acupuncture! I have been struggling lately with an IT band issue and she has been able to really make a difference! They use the latest technology and she really listens to your concerns. You will be happy you decided to go! read more

Words cannot express the gratitude I have for Jason Lubin. He literally saved my wedding. I had been on a strict diet/treament plan to treat a parasite and other ailments. The plan had left me depleted, depressed, way too skinny, and full of anxiety. I went to Jason 10 days before my wedding desperate, scared and with little hope. He spent almost 2 hours with me that day and did not stick one needle in me. Yes, you read that right. He did not stick one needle in me. As a doctor, he saw that my real problem was coming from my diet and that my blood was too weak for successful treatment. He gave me a plan to follow for the next 10 days to gain my strength back. I listened to him. Miraculously I felt strong, hopeful, rested and at ease by the time the big day came. All the joy I experienced that sensational day would not have been possible without his help. Now I see Dr Lubin reguraly and my anxiety, sleep behavior, and lifestyle has greatly improved. My blood is getting stronger and I feel very healthy. He is a true healer, exceptionally knowledgable, and his treatment has drastically improved my life. I have tried acupuncture off and on for almost 20 years and he is the only doctor that has really made a difference. I would highly recommend him and am so thankful for him! read more

Mimi has helped my mom and I over the years with our healing. Why we love Mimi: She fixes problems in elegant non invasive ways when the situation calls for it (with acupuncture/herbs/or energy work combo) and is super caring, kind, and smart a) She has helped me avoid an elective eyelid surgery (got a bump/cyst to go away with herbs, acupuncture, and energy work) and b) avoid a cervical cone biopsy (took supplements she prescribed/in combination with acupuncture. After, Pap smears came back normal so no surgery needed) This past month, she helped my mom with c) hemorrhoids. Her conventional doctor (not Mimi) had prescribed suppositories. This helped temporarily, but the bleeding came back. So, we changed her diet (more fiber), her habits (more moving, less sitting), Mimi suggested a 'donut' style pillow to sit on, and did acupuncture. My mom said after she came home after Mimi's acupuncture treatment (sorry if too much info: hemorrhoids shrank from grape size to blueberry size/raisin size!). I asked how she knew- did she look/measure? She said she could tell by feel/squeezing her butt, that it was more comfortable/less swollen. The most important thing- the bleeding stopped. Suppositories are no longer needed, and her hemorrhoids are better/non symptomatic. We deeply appreciate Mimi's exceptional care and expertise. read more

I started seeing Dr. Mimi when I was looking to get pregnant and she helped me clean up my act:) Now we have a wonderful son and I continue to see her to keep me in balance. I can't say enough good things about her! read more

Dr. Mimi is a highly skilled and one of a kind Acupuncturist and Naturopath. She is intuitive, patient and kind, and I am so grateful that I met her. She has helped me get my autoimmune disorder and gut issues under control--and most importantly help my body heal itself. I'm very grateful that our paths crossed after years of little success trying to diagnose and understand my Celiac disease. I've also seen Albert for massage therapy and highly recommend for injuries, neck/back pains and all around tuning. He is exceptional at using techniques that will make you feel realigned and standing straighter. They are passionate about helping others, making you feel comfortable and managing your ailments appropriately. read more

In 2016, I was referred to Dr Mimi by a good friend. I was new to the bay area and happy for the referral. I had been experiencing severe chronic neck and shoulder pain (nurse for 30 years), plus I needed emotional support for anxiety and grief. I drove to San Francisco from the East Bay every Sunday to see both Dr Mimi and her husband Albert, who does deep tissue massage. Within six months my physical pain was minimal, my emotions were stable and I felt my sadness was decreasing. I was healing! In 2017, I followed Dr Mimi to her Lafayette office. Due to Mimi and Albert's amazing therapies, I am now pain free and happy. I see Mimi two Tuesdays a month in Lafayette for acupuncture and I drink her Chinese herbs everyday for emotional support. Dr. Mimi and Albert are highly-talented practitioners who care about their patient's outcomes. I can't recommend them enough to the community. I would give 10 stars read more

Can't say enough good things about Dr. Mimi. She has helped me in many different aspects of my life and would recommend her to any and everyone! I have been seeing her for just about 3 years and she has helped me with everything from energy levels and depression to gut health and menstrual pain management! Outside of helping me through her acupuncture healing, she has also helped me by listening and giving holistic life advice during every appointment! read more

I have been seeing Dr Mimi Cortez for more than a year. She is extremely caring and experienced to see you through any of your health concerns. I would follow her anywhere!!!!!! Her office is warm, beautiful and so relaxing which really adds to your healing. She has improved my health and my outlook on aging more than 100%!!!!!! I cannot put into words how amazing her acupuncture skills are. I completely trust her advice and her practice. read more

Dr. Mimi is a phenomenally gifted practitioner. I started seeing Mimi a few years ago when I was trying to conceive and saw her each week of my entire pregnancy. Her ability to see beyond the client's request and treat holistically was the most wonderfully surprising element of my experience with her. She not only helped my body align for growing a child, but also addressed a lot of other stress and anxiety factors, which to this day, I reap the benefits of. I miss her dearly as I moved away from her conveniently located office and cannot recommend her enough to those lucky to be near her! read more

I wasn't a believer in acupuncture, but Mimi came highly recommended. I have high blood pressure and within the first series of appointments, my blood pressure came down to a manageable level. I now just see Mimi for "maintenance", but the appointments are relaxing and I look forward to each visit. And for those of you who are first timers and don't like the idea of needles...Dr Mimi could not be a more caring, gentle soul. I fall asleep regularly. read more

Jason is such a talented healer. I recommend him highly. I've seen Jason for a variety of ailments, including plantar fasicitis, Crohn's disease, and bursitis. In all cases, I felt amazingly better after seeing him. He's so kind and thoughtful and you'll be glad you had a session with him. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Mimi over one year. She is my third acupuncturist. In addition to her caring personality, I have noticed that she is very knowledgeable and helped me a lot. I am so grateful that I met her and my insurance covers her treatment. read more

Dr. Mimi asks about and treats overall wellness with medical knowledge and experience that emphasizes practical advice and alternatives to pharmaceuticals. I love the approach. I see Dr. Mimi primarily for periodic neck related pain. When I am seeing Dr. Mimi regularly (about once a month), the neck pain stays away and there is no better recommendation than that! read more

Dr Mimi is a caring and thoughtful. She has good instincts and have experienced great results, where I didn't see results with previous acupuncture. The space is also beautiful and healing. Highly recommend. read more

Jason at Lamorinda Healing Arts is outstanding. I had never had acupuncture. After 18 months of constant body pain and a diagnosis of fibromyalgia I was a mess. I didn't want to take medication, I had started Pilates reformer classes for stretching and was trying more cardio exercise but it is really hard when it hurts so badly. I took the advice of the rheumatologist to " try it all". I eliminated Physical Therapy, cortisone shots, & other steroids. I tried different diets. I finally got to Jason through a friend's recommendation. I have gone for 6 appointments since Mid September. I am virtually pain free! After the first two treatments I was walking without pain. I have been able to resume strenuous hikes and to take Master's Reformer Classes. He has reduced my pain by 95%. Always on time, very pleasant and very knowledgeable. I am most grateful to him. read more

My husband started going here after several back surgeries. I talked him into it because he wasn't sure acupuncture would do anything. Well, Jason was amazing. My husband had massive improvements after each visit. Not miracle worker improvements, but the increased blood flow through the injury site helped a lot. A big problem with back surgery is that the muscles in the surrounding area can atrophy. My husband has very real relief of the lactic acid build up that he constantly complained about. I would highly recommend trying Jason. I've recommended him to several people, but instead they each went to the person their primary care auto-recommended. The type of acupuncture they received didn't sound nearly as in depth as what my husband received...and they complained of little to no results. Acupuncture is minimalistic to begin with, but my husband did try electro-stimulation with his acupuncture, which he felt worked wonders. Also, the custom made balms he was sent home with really helped in between visits. read more

This review is long overdue. I've been seeing Dr. Mimi Cortez for a couple of years now for several conditions I've been struggling to manage and she has become an entrusted doctor, practitioner, and dear friend. Dr. Mimi is a truly gifted intuitive healer who has helped me immeasurably. I've benefited so much from my work with her that I've felt assured in my referring many others to her. I had previously tried acupuncture (about 15 years ago) and after several months, had given up hope and believed that the modality wasn't for me. I'm beyond grateful that my cousin convincingly suggested I reach out to Dr. Mimi; she has positively impacted my health in so many ways (due to the private nature of my conditions, I regret I can't be more specific). Dr. Mimi is incredibly warm, skilled, compassionate, and is generous with her time. During appointments, she intently listens - she's present and available, never rushing. She genuinely cares about her patients. Dr. Mimi is a wonderful professional who continually strives to be/do better in her practice; she also happens to be a beautiful soul, anyone would be lucky to meet. read more

Jason Luban with Lamorinda Healing Arts truly provided our family with a wonderful, positive experience. He was very impactful in our lives and with our girls. When we were at the end of our rope with my daughter's back pain (caused by gymnastics), Jason was able to make a positive difference and provide my daughter with relief and hope! We enjoyed our office visits, which for some reason always included laughter and enjoyed Jason's wonderful dog, Josie. I have highly recommended Jason to many professional colleagues and they also had rave reviews. read more
