I honestly can't say enough good things about Dr. Sebaa. I came from SF and have been to a few…read moreacupuncturists. Each of my experiences have been great and I love Eastern medicine but when I came to SD, I felt a bit nervous about who I would I get. Seriously, Dr. Sebaa blew everyone out of the water! I'm amazed by her depth of knowledge and intuition. It's so clear that she's gone above and beyond when it comes to learning about not just Chinese medicine but so many other natural medicine disciplines. She's always up to date on the research and she ties it all into ancient medicine. She was even able to help my MD figure out what was going on with my body. After she suggested a few lab tests, I was able to get a diagnosis and now my MD can help me better too. It's no wonder her schedule is booked. She even stopped taking new patients for a while because she wanted to deeply focus on the ladies she is treating. Dr. Sebaa has a heart of gold. She really truly cares and you'll feel it. She's worth every bit and more. I feel like angels sent me to her and when I think about my health before I saw her and how I am now, I tear up with joy. We worked on things slowly and my pain started to lessen, my excess puffy weight shed off, my skin started to glow and I rarely ever wear makeup anymore (and that's coming from a full glam kinda gal). My mind feels more clear and I rarely feel the anxiety I used to even from things that used to trigger me before. Anyway, this can get really long. I can go on and on. If you're lucky enough to get on her books, you've hit jackpot.

I initially came in for stubborn knee pain from being a runner for over a decade but have found her expertise to be helpful for a few other issues I have ignored. She is knowledgeable in a lot of areas within the natural medicine world--both Eastern and Western. Plus, she is centrally located in San Diego and pretty close to my work in Fashion / Mission Valley area. What more could I ask for? I now have a lot more energy, don't feel the urge to nap in the middle of the day and have lost some of the excess stubborn weight that I have been carrying around for too long. I also started getting facial acupuncture from her since I am in my late-fifties and let me tell you: it works! I have a natural glow and my skin looks less tired already. I am SO GLAD I FOUND HER. She is well worth it. I feel healthier than ever and have the support I need to continue taking care of myself and my family naturally.

That's when I found Dr. Lee, and I couldn't be more grateful. From my very first session, I felt a noticeable difference. Dr. Lee is truly one of the best acupuncture doctors in San Diego--her knowledge, skill, and care are unparalleled. Her approach is holistic and personalized, taking the time to understand not just my symptoms but my overall health. Over the course of several treatments, my stomach pain has significantly decreased, and I'm feeling better than I have in a long time. What Western medicine wasn't able to resolve, acupuncture with Dr. Lee has managed to do. I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is struggling with pain or other health issues. If you're considering acupuncture, Dr. Lee is the one to see!

I made myself a cup of the herbs that Dr. Lee prepared for me that night and by the morning, the skin issues on my neck and ears were completely gone and the issues on my torso were barely noticeable - no inflammation nor itching. The pain in my back was completely alleviated. I was very intentional and present in my acupuncture session with Dr. Lee - not passive like I've been in sessions before with other acupuncturists. I truly believe the combination of intentionality during the acupuncture session and Dr. Lee's herbs healed my body so deeply that I had to share. She is a very powerful healer and I will most definitely incorporate her into my self-care practice regularly. Angel, her office manager, is so very gentle and accommodating. Such a wonderful experience.

I HATE NEEDLES... I…read morenever thought I would allow someone to stick needles into me, the thought of going to the doctor to get a shot is on my top 10 list of things that I never want to know. That is why I find it amazing writing a review about acupuncture. I turned 30 and I had developed a wheat allergy, every time that I ate anything with wheat I would pay for it the next day doubled over in pain, it was not worth it. I had talked to my doctor and was referred to GI doctors but none of them could help me. That is when a friend of mine said I should try acupuncture. I almost lost it right then and there, thinking about being stuck just freaked me out. But I really wanted to eat wheat again and I was desperate to go back to eating tasty cookies and fluffy pancakes. I booked an appointment with Erica Stark, naturally I was hesitant about going, I almost didn't even show up to my first appointment! My Experience: The Office - Located in Kearny Mesa in the medical center across the street from the Home Depot, I took the elevator up to the 4th floor and walked into the nicely decorated office. The room was dimmed and a small fountain was along the wall. The office had a pleasant smell, not sure what to call it but it was calming, I needed calming. Erica - I was greeted by the acupuncturist, she was sweet and understanding of my fear. She assured me that the process was painless and that my fears were normal. She knew what she was talking about, and while I know very little about eastern approaches to medical care her confidence put me at instant ease. The Treatment - I was surprised to find myself sitting on a regular treatment table just like my doctors office. Erica interviewed me asking about my health history, why I was seeking treatment and documented it all like a regular doctor. She took my wrists in her hands and felt my pulse, somehow she could feel that I was indeed having troubles with my stomach and then she asked me about my headache.. I was startled, I didn't tell her about the mild headache that I was feeling, it was just background noise from earlier in the day, but she could tell by my pulse, that was cool. Erica asked me to lay down on the table, my moment of dread was fast approaching. She showed me the needles, I was stupefied, they were SO TINY. The needles didn't even look like needles, the diameter was about the width of my hair, not much at all! I laid back, and she started. I couldn't watch, she placed this little tube against a point on my wrist and I felt pressure. I was wondering when she was going to put the needle in and she asks how was it. I blinked, was it in? It was! I didn't feel a stab, not even a poke. I looked at it, the needle was in, and it didn't even go deep, I could barely feel it. Erica proceeded to place more needles in other points, none of them hurt. She told me to lay still and relax, 10 minutes later she removed the needles and I was done. There was no blood, I could not even tell where the needles went in. I have now seen Erica 5 times, and while I am not cured of my wheat intolerance, I am no longer a victim of cross contamination. I have also realized that when I go to a session I just feel better for days. I am not sure of why it works but it sure does. tldr; being treated by Erica has been one of the best decisions that I have ever made, and the needles don't even hurt.

Due to multiple car accidents, the most recent just over a year ago, I have chronic back and neck pain. When I first started seeing Erica I was under an intense treatment plan to manage my pain. I was having to get a 90 minute deep tissue massage twice a week as well as see my doctor (D.O.) for adjustments twice a week just to be able to function and continue working full time. Almost immediately after my first treatment I was able to start stretching out my other treatments. We slowly stretched them out and I am currently only doing one two hour deep tissue massage and one adjustment with my D.O. every two weeks! Now I realize that this might sound like it is still a lot a treatment, but what's important is that it is truly a lot of progress. I have even been able to slowly start working back into doing some of my fun hobbies! Acupuncture with Erica is the only treatment option that I have tried that has actually allowed me to cut back on my other treatments, and believe me I've tried a lot over the last year! Her abilities reach far beyond just pain issues too. I have literally walked into her office with a migraine and walked out without even a headache. I have been shocked by how many different ailments Erica is able to help with. Erica has not only improved my chronic pain condition, but she has improved my quality of life and enabled me to start having fun again. As a patient with a lot of experience in dealing with chronic pain and doctor's offices, I highly recommend seeing Erica!
