    Amazing first acupuncture session. From a very stressed day to walking out calm and falling asleep. Looking forward to more sessions.

    Acupuncture session to induce labor.
    Elsie S.

    During my pregnancy journey, I was blessed with a support circle and amazing team at Ritual Acupuncture. Dr. Joel Moncada was with me every step of the way guiding a healthy flow of energy for me physically and mentally, and our growing baby! From preconception, through gestation, to labor inducing. He addressed all of my issues as they arose, from carpal tunnel, indigestion, hemorrhoids, various pains throughout my body, and most importantly supporting a healthy pregnancy. The team is all hands on and exudes good energy. From personal greetings when I arrive to the office, to text message reminders, bringing me tea to relax, and calmness during treatments, the team maintains caring professionalism. Pregnancy and child birth is a mix of the most joyful yet scariest experiences. I am thankful for our support team at Ritual Acupuncture who listened to our needs, took care of, and informed us well enough so we could make the best health-related decisions for my pregnant self and our baby. I highly recommend for anyone considering acupuncture for any needs.

    Cupping Therapy with Mr. Benn Samonte.
    Marlon T.

    I've been going here for multiple times now and having body work, cupping therapy done by Mr. Benedict Samonte. He is very enthusiastic and passionate when it comes to health and wellness to treat chronic pain. I strongly recommend anyone to schedule an appointment with him in cupping therapy or anything he has to offer. He is a strong avid supporter for all U.S. Military personnel that is currently serving in both active and reserve duty, those who served in the past especially military veterans, and all First Responders. He has a strong and devoted work ethic that encompasses passion and safety and well-being to myself and all his clients. If you are ever in the area in Vallejo or a visitor from out of town. He is the person to go to. Thank you again for your devoted work and for your service. Much respect to all of us that is serving for our country. God speed and keep up the great work. Looking forward to the next session. Thank you Ritual Acupuncture for the hospitality.

Unfortunately, the interaction I had left me very discouraged. When I called, I spoke with a receptionist named Ginger. She offered me two time slots--3:30 PM on Thursday or 8:45 AM the same day. I politely asked if there was any flexibility, explaining my balancing work obligations and would not be able to attend those times due to a very important meeting. Before I could finish, she cut me off and stated that she did not need to hear my "excuses," only whether I could accept the slots given. I fully understand that scheduling can be limited and that not all requests can be accommodated. However, the dismissive and rude way my situation was handled made me feel disrespected and unheard. In the healthcare field, empathy and professionalism are so important--especially when families are simply trying to meet their children's needs. I hope this was just an isolated incident or a difficult day, but I wanted to bring it to your attention so that future interactions with patients and families can reflect the courtesy and compassion that your clinic no doubt values.

I fell off of a billboard 30 years ago and have suffered neck and back pain the whole time time. My pain doctor had quit seeing patients so I decided to see this doctor who has an office in Benicia where I live. I was skeptical about the reviews but was pleasantly surprised. Dr Anand was thorough and kind. He looked at my MRI for my back and showed me things no one else told me about. He said he would assess my neck pain at another appointment. He refilled my pain medication but less than I had previously. He spent a long time talking to me and I was very pleased with his care. I then had two appointments in his surgery center. I was seen fairly soon after arriving. One injection in my shoulder where he had an X-ray machine looking at where he put the injection. The second time he did a test on my back that was painful, but he did give me a pain shot beforehand. During both procedures he was compassionate and caring and explained thoroughly what was happening. Afterwards he spent time showing me what he saw and explained how he would proceed. All in all I think he talked to me longer than any doctor ever has. I have hope after seeing Dr Anand and think he is a great doctor.

I'm truly so grateful a friend of mine recommeded her to us, so I want to share this with other mamas/parents that have had similar concerns. Here is a before and after from our first Appt. Such a big difference! We also learned that our son has a lip tie and that the reason he wasn't nursing well on one side was because he couldn't turn his head properly. That's now been fixed and he nursed great on both sides last night! Dr. Cislo also manipulated the bones in my son's mouth to help with his gag reflux and explained that part of the reason people have crooked teeth is because the bones in the head are crooked, and that's why teeth often shift back without use of retainers. We received so much great information yesterday and so many answers we had been looking for, and will now be scheduling our first Appt. with a highly recommended dentist to fix his lip tie. Dr. Cislo also helped me get back on track with the vitamins and the recommended units I need to live a much healthier life, and shared that my son may be getting sick a lot because he needs more Vitamin D. I'm just so thankful for this experience, I hope someone else benefits from this as well. And, I will definitely be going back if I have another baby. If this sounds like something you might be interested in, do it and don't think twice about it! You will not be disappointed!

Honestly, I was really desperate & hopeless because a number of other therapists over many years had failed me, and now I had set very low expectations since I thought I was the problem. So I would have been happy with some new perspective, but I was pleasantly surprised. Not only we went much deeper, it was as if so much was waiting to come up so fast--here and now in the care and of this good doctor & the safe atmosphere he has created to allow for it. It's hard to describe in a few words, but the first two sessions seemed to unravel an entire new stage of my life. From a healing perspective, those two sessions did more than years of soul searching, and more than some hundreds of sessions in comparative holistic approaches. I know this sounds like an exaggeration, but it is not. The many years of experience of a good therapist, combining both, therapy and hypnosis, can be profoundly effective in terms of the depths one could reach. Dr. Shafaghi's book explains how and why, and it's well worth a read. May I say, an easy client who is a learner also helps--that was his compliment to me regarding how well I received his help Now he is our family doctor, and I feel blessed he is in our lives. I have a feeling those who encounter him will find new and profound discoveries awaited them. What is most admirable in this practice also is the way husband and wife advocate for one another. I am also slightly troubled by the unfavorable and unfair rating of a reviewer who seems to be speaking from another universe, so I thought I will add this review from my google to show the truth of this beautiful and sacred space.

    Dr. Aimee is not only an incredible doctor, but also an incredible human being. She is very kind…read moreand empathetic and has great bedside manner. I have been seeing Dr. Aimee for about a year now and figured it was time for a review. Although we have not been successful yet, I have been to several other clinics prior to Dr. Aimee and truly feel that she has been the best by far and wanted to lay out a few reasons: (1) Dr. Aimee personally saw me for every single appointment so she was the one doing my ultrasound and bloodwork. She also always took extra time to have us speak to her in her office after every appointment to go over next steps. That is a level of care I haven't seen at other clinics, where it is sometimes rare to see your doctor more than a few times the entire cycle. (2) I have been going through IVF for 4 years, which means I have had many many ultrasounds done throughout that time. I had been diagnosed with DOR and "unexplained" infertility. Since Dr. Aimee personally attended to me at every appointment, she got to know my symptoms and body very well. She knew what was normal for me and what was not normal. After only 5 months with Dr. Aimee, she discovered silent endometriosis off a random comment I made about a sore back, despite no signs of endometriosis. She was then able to guide me towards a specialist, where I had laparoscopic surgery to discover Stage II endometriosis. I likely would've continued believing "unexplained" infertility was my diagnosis if she hadn't put in the effort to dig deeper. This is a huge benefit when you are actually seeing your provider every appointment. (3) Communication with Dr. Aimee is readily available and easy. This has been really helpful for me in those random moments where something stressful comes up or if something happens over the weekend, she is always responsive. I really appreciate the communication aspect because infertility is a huge and stressful battle and she truly makes sure that your doctor is not an additional source of stress. This is unlike other clinics I have been to, where communication and getting in touch with your doctor can be really difficult. She truly cares about each and every patient and wants you to succeed. (4) Dr. Aimee is a great doctor for people that feel like they've "tried everything else." She is willing to think outside the box to come up with different solutions to your problems. Additionally, she is constantly doing research and trying to find new ideas on how to find new avenues to success. There are so many other great things I want to say about Dr. Aimee, but it would make this review even longer! She is truly an incredible woman and doctor and I feel very grateful to have her as my doctor.

    As a huge fan of palindrome numbers, I figured review #999 should be something out of the norm of…read morerestaurants and boba shops. Something that we struggled with for a while due to age was infertility. We had actually seen several fertility specialists during this long journey, and have gone through 3 rounds of IVF (2 mini's and 1 conventional) as well as an IUI. Although they were all unfortunately unsuccessful, we discovered that not all fertility clinics and doctors are created equal. While we found that many doctors take a very traditional, rigid and cookie cutter approach to treatment. Focusing more on luck through repeated attempts, Dr. Aimee was much more focused and tailored in her regiment. We always felt informed during this process, and confident in Dr. Aimee's recommendations. And unlike other clinics, we were always able to get ahold of Dr. Aimee directly. Instead of communicating with a nurse who would then pass the message along to the doctor if they felt it needed escalation. Along these lines, we were always shocked at how quickly we were usually able to get a response from Dr. Aimee. Sometimes even late at night. We often joked that Dr. Aimee probably doesn't sleep. Our only complaints about going with Dr. Aimee revolved around a few issues: 1) The initial application process to get a consultation with Dr. Aimee was lengthy, difficult, and required a lot of chasing from my wife due to poor follow-up and communication from the office. The individual handling review and processing of new patient applications would often go awol for days on end after sending out limited communication. 2) Billing was oftentimes not very clear and created a need for us to meticulously examine our bills line by line to ensure accuracy. 3) Dr. Aimee does not accept any insurance so 100% of the costs will be out of pocket. In addition, her rates are substantially higher than other clinics. Although we were ultimately unsuccessful with IVF, we were eventually blessed with a miracle baby through natural birth. Despite this, we would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Aimee to anyone looking for fertility care.
