I have been to a lot of acupuncturists over a lot of years and Masako Wada is by far the best. She is intuitive and very knowledgeable about so many aspects of health and healing that we are treating several of my issues at once. I have seen a great reduction in my anxiety and depression, and I have found great new opportunities for happiness appear since I have been in treatment with her. She is also treating arthritis in my neck and after the last treatment I felt light as air and found myself feeling more like myself, vibrant and attractive than I have in many years. Masako is kind and compassionate, and full of wonderful skills and wisdom to help heal the deepest wounds and the most painful illnesses surprisingly quickly and gracefully, at least for me. And looking at the testimonials on her website for many other people too. I wholeheartedly recommend. read more

This was my 5th appointment with Masako. I started seeing her for my migraines and lower back pain. I have only had 1 headache since I started my visits. My lower back pain has decreased tremendously since my visits. I cannot be happier about living a life without pain and fear of making the wrong move and causing my pain areas to flare up. I am shocked that this methodology does work as much as the next person, (doubting western medicine) but since I've been under her care, I cannot shout to the roof tops enough about my absence of pain and her genuine concern for people and their WHOLE health: body, mind, and soul. She is sincere and very knowledgeable. She started my healing process from within. I feel healthier, revived, and rejuvenated without the pain but also within. read more

I've been going to Masako a couple times a week for the last 4 months. I didn't want to write a review until enough time passed for me to give a sound one. I come in for the Nutritional Response testing and for the Japanese Acupuncture. I love that the needles aren't inserted like in Chinese acupuncture. That part enticed me to give it a shot but was curious to see how effective it really was. Every session I have with her I do feel the energy flowing and I get a sense of peace calm and relaxation. It has helped tremendously with my anxiety. Compared to the the Chinese acupuncture I have gone to in the past this is by far the best. As for the Nutritional Response testing I've seen a huge improvement on the eczema issue I had been dealing with for a year prior to coming to her. Doctors couldn't give me answers and wanted to give me steroids to suppress the symptoms. Masako's approach is treating from the inside out naturally. The muscle testing confirmed what I suspected and helped pinpoint the root cause. The muscle testing also helped give my body a voice in telling me what supplements and foods I needed to help heal and what I needed to avoid. Before all this I was wasting money on random supplements that I assumed would help and it was like a shot in the dark on whether or not it really was. I love my visits with Masako as she always makes my overall well being better. She is very kind with a peaceful demeanor but direct in her approach. Very knowledgeable and intuitive. I highly recommend her. She is the best! So happy I found her. read more

I went to My Path To Wellness and Masako-San to deal with elbow and shoulder joint pains. I did not want to go to our family doc - though a great doc - and deal with meds, so I decided to give it a try with acupuncture. After the first session, the pain vanished like a miracle. I had 3 other sessions to deal with my stubborn left elbow. Since then, with the addition of anti-inflammatory natural supplement, the pain has all subsided. I enjoyed my visits with Masako-San. She is very kind, meticulous and professional. I highly recommend you to her. She is just amazing and I am so happy I found her. Not that I am looking forward to my next ailment but if needed, I will definitely go back to Masako-San. read more

Masako Wada is a very talented acupuncturist who has also learned and practices NAET, allergy elimination. In addition to several allergies which she treated me for successfully, Masako gave me the great gift of being able to EAT CHOCOLATE! Yes, it was a very sad thing for someone who loves chocolate. I was allergic to it and could never, ever eat it! After Masako's NAET treatment, I am happy to report I can eat chocolate it all of its glorious forms, cake, brownies, truffles, bars....it's great great great!! If you have allergies, food, airborne or whatever, run don't walk to Masako!! June Crow read more

I only had the hour long shiatsu massage and acupuncture but it was so rewarding.

I would recommend this massage for anyone. She really delivers some deep pressure to the right area's and you will feel the difference and feel better for having it done! I have already scheduled my next appointment. read more

For months and months I had a terrible skin rash, that couldn't be cured with any antihistamines, cortisone tablets, injections, creams or following my own idea of a special diet. I couldn't swim, do any exercise, enjoy summer or sleep one night through! I was so miserable! I remembered about an email a friend send to me long ago, who was completely off of all his Western Meds (with their deadly side-effects) due to treatment by Masako Wada and decided to give it a try. At first I was a little sceptic. I have had alternative treatments before and am a firm believer in Muscle Testing, but she "lost" me at Blood letting and Moxa-Burning. For whatever reason, I also have a hard time to believe that Acupuncture really works. Well, low and behold, within about 6 weeks my rash was gone! Even though I still cheated a bit with my diet. I was in awe! Medical doctors couldn't do anything for me except for just giving me more and more meds wth no results! It is now mid-December and I am still rash free. Trust me, if you have a Medical issue, you need to quit seeing your MD and go Alternative. Masako is so knowlegdebale and being a former RN, I continuously questioned everthing, challenged her and she had a very scientic and logic explantion for all my questions. read more

My husband and I were introduced to Masako by a Living Social coupon special. The visit changed our lives for the better. Masako has provided integrative personal care, nutritional counseling, acupuncture, high quality herbs vitamins, and response testing. My Path to Wellness also has free educational classes/seminars that I attend. I have learned so much about my body, mind, and spirit needs from Masako. Thanks to Masako for using her craft to help me develop a lifestyle of good health. My Path to Wellness is the best place for us. Thanks again Masako. read more

Masako, Is an excellent acupuncturist. Currently doing her facial rejuvenation acupuncture series. Better than any Botox at removing fine wrinkles and undereye bags.

I found Masako Wada when hopelessly looking for direction in my health. I was suffering from severe brain fog and gut issues. She knew exactly what I was going through and helped heal me back to amazing health and clarity! She is very friendly and informative. She knows so much about health, wellness and using the power of nutrition to heal the body since she too has experienced the terrible side effects of food sensitivities and other health issues that are so hard to locate. I recommend Masako to anyone struggling with their health! Thanks again. read more

I went there because my back was stiff and troubling me. Masako was very attentive to my needs and after carefully assessing the degree of massage needed, literally put me asleep in a few minutes. I felt much much better and relaxed after the what seemed to have been a short massage. I would highly recommend to anyone who needs a nice massage. read more

I went to Masako for joint pain mostly in my hands, wrists and shoulders. I enjoy biking and it was starting to effect riding, the constant stiffness was also causing me discomfort throughout the day. I was a little skeptical at first but after the very first week I was already seeing a difference. I'm over a month in and usually when my joint stiffness comes back I can now tract it to something I did with either diet or exercise because it only stays for a day or so. read more

I have suffered from neuropathy in feet, legs and hands for years with some relief coming from pain medication. Masako Wada looks at a person as a whole; what one eats and drinks and any medication your on. By Appling her suggestions along with accupucture she brought relief. She takes time to talk with you to see if there are other complications with each office visit. If you have concerns about medication reacting with food supplements she will review and give you her findings and adjust supplements so reaction is not an issue. Masako keeps current on treatments suggesting reviews or videos for watch from leading specialist. She stays current with treatment guidelines by continued studies. I can now walk longer than 5 minutes without a wheelchair. My overall health has improved in many ways. If your hurting or just tense, do yourself a favor and make an appointment you'll be glad you did. I am! read more

I actually drive an hour and a quarter one way for my appointments. It's worth every mile. read more

am blessed to have met Masako Wada in May, 2010. She has helped to reduce or eliminate several long-term physical ailments, including a suppressed immune system and high cholesterol. Masako-san has a friendly, relaxed, professional demeanor and will answer all of your questions/concerns about her treatment methods. I have benefited immensely from her Japanese Acupuncture techniques (which differ from the standard Chinese Acupuncture model), and her Shiatsu skills are incomparable. I feel that Masako-san is essentially an Energy Healer, because she focuses on tuning the body to become a more efficient conductor of energy. Profound healing may result from relieving blockages in a body's energy-system and 'gateways'. I know this to be true, because I have experienced it first-hand under Masako's care. In contrast to western medicine, which bullies the body into temporary episodes of 'health' and relief from pain, Masako-san employs holistic techniques designed to achieve long-term 'wellness'. I believe that this holistic approach is a cooperative venture: in order for Masako's efforts to achieve their maximum effectiveness, one must receive her treatments with an earnest willingness to be healed. read more

I had scheduled a shiatsu massage for 1 hour. I got there and was left in the lobby for 15 minutes filling out papers. When we got to the massage room, there were 45 minutes left. The massage itself wasn't what I was expecting. She has you keep all clothing on, drapes a sheet over you, and does the massage. The fabric of clothes digging into the skin was very distracting and was not at all what I was expecting. read more
