I hate to sound like I am clutching my pearls but it was just a bit odd that on a Sunday afternoon there were creepers lingering around the front. I appreciated an ADA parking spot I can practically toss myself in the door so close but when there are a pile of rando people loitering, that just gets awkward. It felt like a regular issue too. Like I said, awkward. I do appreciate the amount of things you can get at Walgreens that are groceries and such. Their lighting and look make you feel strung out though seriously. I do like the location of this store though since it is very easy to get in and out of the parking lot.

On their website they provide paper binding. I went in and asked if I could have this done and she…read moresaid no we don't do that. So I promptly pointed out the binding machine that was literally beside her and said ok, what do you use the binding machine for there? She said well yeah we do that but I wouldn't know how to charge you for that service, and I don't know how to do it. Then she said I needed to show her on the website where it says they offer the service, so I pointed it out to her and she said yeah, no. I don't know what to charge you and I don't know how to use it. Then blankly stared at me. I asked if anyone else knew how and she said "I don't know" worst customer service. Don't come here if you want someone capable of helping you. Or a working brain cell.

The only issue I had at the time was I seemed to keep getting one hygienist who seemed to take their anger out during each cleaning. (I thought that was normal) The last time I was there (2019), I was told I had several cavities in all four quadrants of the mouth, and would most likely need a root canal. The bill was more than we could afford, so I opted to take my chances and wait. I was in no pain. Soon after, Covid hit and no dentist for several years. For the first time in 4 years, I had a dentist appointment with a new dentist. Naturally I experienced high anxiety prior to my appointment //because of what I was told back in 2019. I was worried since it had been a long time, things would be very, very bad. I had x-rays done (Yesterday 1/28/2023) and was seen by a new dentist and had a cleaning. What was my diagnosis? one small tiny chip in a filling , but that was it. When I mentioned what I was told at St. Helens Dental Care, the new dentist just stared at me like that was the craziest thing he ever heard. I had an anxiety attack before the dentist, because what I was told by St. Helens Dental. I shudder to think that I would have had several expensive yet needless procedures done. I am a wife to a disabled Veteran and I feel we were taken advantage of. I would say shop around for others. I had a bit of work done there before Covid. I am wondering if I had work done that I did not need in the beginning. My husband is going to need one cavity filled at this new place it's only 125 without insurance and 75 with our insurance....I would never go back to this dentist office. I would not refer any family or friends here.

It is not only that Dr Shanna works on the body, she offers so much else! Life coaching, nutrition, exercises at home, treatment, etc. She is compassionate and kind and truly cares.

Retreat! Oh what a retreat!…read more Last October Shanna and Loni held a fabulous playful and introspective woman's retreat in Phoenix Arizona. It was there that seven woman would share a home together for a five days. We would unwind from the outside world, travel to Sedona, experience a vortex, rest, relax and play. All the while getting to know one another, and simultaneously being granted time to process on our own, and during check ins. Our needs were of the top most priority, and we were well taken care of in all regards. We were graciously offered meditation and movement classes in the mornings (which were wonderful, perfectly tailored to our needs, and fun) and although we had an itinerary planned, and adventures we would go in, it felt easy going each day, and all we had to do was show up and say yes. Yes to a new experience in a new place, and more over, yes to our Mind, Body, Spirit connection for what ever the universe presented to us. Mind: We were engaged in playful activity through games, sharing stories and laughter which lead to open hearted conversation, going within while remaining willing to be present, staying supportive of our new network of sisters and holding mindful space for everyone as the beautiful unique individuals we are. Body: We hiked in numerous locations, sang, swam, soaked, slept, and danced! We ate delicious and lovingly prepared nutritious meals. And were offered Massage, Reiki, and Tibetan Cranial. Spirit: Sedona's Bell Mountain shared a vortex with myself and many of the other woman. This was a spiritual experience in which I am still learning to understand and unpack it from time to time. The retreat was so well rounded. I highly recommend a retreat with Natural Body Works. Shanna and Loni work very well together, and ensure safe and centered heart-space in which to come together, go within, and get to know our inner playful selves in order to more readily access our joy. I am so grateful to have shown up and said yes, yes to my Mind, Body, and Spirit, but mainly yes to myself so I could fully receive the gifts being presented to me through my many interactions with a great group of woman. An excellent experience which would have been missed out on had I not said, yes. So next time there is a retreat offered by this Rock Star Team. . . Well I think you catch my drift
