As someone who was maybe a little nervous about trying acupuncture for the first time, all my…read moreconcerns, hesitations, and anxiety were put to rest after meeting with Sara. I've been having issues with my upper and middle back when working out, along with some difficulty sleeping. She took a genuine interest in my habits and sleeping patterns. She has amazing energy and carefully explains the process, clues you in on what to expect in during and after your treatment, and answers all your questions; you NEVER feel rushed. When my session came to an end, I had this amazing calm wash over me. My back feels relaxed, I have a smile on my face, and I will be back! She is an exceptional healthcare provider, and I would highly recommend her!

I started talking to Sara about the ways in which acupuncture could help with general care of my…read morehealth - improving circulation, breathing, skeletal alignment, sleeping, etc. Coincidentally, about the same time as we were having these discussions, my exercising and various athletic adventures caught up with me. I had strained 2 muscle in my left rotator cuff. The injury was constricting my range of motion and causing chronic pain during certain movements. I inquired about treatment for this as well. It was this injury that pushed me to start acupuncture therapy. Following the first session, relief in my shoulder was immediate - the pain was gone, full range of motion returned. It feels as though I never had the injury. Currently I see Sara 1-2 times/month. I attribute the ongoing treatment to the continued benefit in keeping my shoulders healthy, as well she works on other ailments resulting from exercise (muscle tightness, joint pain, etc). Additionally, her treatment of the more holistic issues I mentioned is giving me more energy, strength and focus. The entire experience of her treatment is rare and invaluable. She is extremely knowledgable in her practice, anatomy and especially treatment for athletes. Beyond that Sara is caring and friendly. I feel very fortunate to work with her. Finally, her practice does accept certain insurance policies which makes this relatively affordable.

Ever since I started coming here, strangers approach me all the time to tell me how flawless my…read moreskin looks! Stefanie is the best at what she does. Her studio is such a peaceful space, and I love that she doesn't sell/push any products on you after your treatment. She genuinely cares about your skin and well being. She's also saved me thousands by reviewing my skincare routine and educating me on unnecessary skin care products that other aestheticians urged me to buy. She should be everyone's first choice for aging gracefully!!

Having never undergone acupuncture treatment before, I was nervous and perhaps even skeptical of the therapy and it's potential for results. Going to Stefanie for an introduction into the practice was nothing short of amazing. I felt at ease with her almost immediately and she addressed all my questions and concerns prior to beginning the actual session. Going through my health history and current physical woes was easy to do with Stefanie. She even helped me recognize additional symptoms that I didn't explicitly bring up, as I'd accepted them part of my life, and addressed them as well. I had been experiencing severe symptoms and manifestations of chronic stress, including insomnia, digestive problems, depression, anxiety, irregular menstrual cycle and back pain. I needed help! I tried massages and psychotherapy to help with the stress, but nothing worked for much longer than the time during a treatment session. Going to an acupuncturist felt like a last resort to help mitigate the damage my unhealthy working environment was causing. Not only was the entire acupuncture experience pleasant and insightful, the effect was astonishing. I promptly became a regular patient. My physical systems all but disappeared over a short time (just 6 weeks with marked improvement in each treatment) and my mental and emotional state is well into recovery. With every session, Stefanie would go above and beyond to address my personal, individual needs. Stefanie has an innate awareness about people allowing for the design of the perfect acupuncture prescription, offering a hug after a particularly effective session and/or providing additional information on whatever was discussed. I highly recommend Stefanie to those new and familiar with acupuncture.

She doesn't just treat symptoms--she intuitively understands what your mind, body, and spirit need to come back into balance. The moment I was on her table, I felt seen, safe, and supported. It was as if she helped me reconnect with the part of myself I thought I had lost. Her healing is powerful, grounded, and deeply intuitive. I walked out of that session feeling more like myself than I have in a long time. I cannot recommend her enough--and yes, I'll absolutely be back.

The decor of her space is perfection and Erika's demeanor and energy is so calm, warm and welcoming. She was confident age wasn't going to be a factor and did a series of acupuncture treatments on me that encouraged fertility. She also gave me recs for supplements. Two sessions later I was pregnant and am expecting baby No. 3 Xmas 2020! She is the real deal.

Her treatment was a cornerstone of collaborative sessions, it clearly ramped up recovery from a host of chronic injury and imbalances. Neck strain/ minor cervical fracture, lower back pain/ herniated disc with nerve root compression, headaches, hand injury--and a couple of years later returned for treatment after jaw reconstruction and had improved mid-face sensation, functionality, less stress, with a net effect of more restful sleep. Mila's gentle, mellifluous voice puts one at ease during each treatment. Her kindness and down to earth but knowledgeable perspective is also a boon to morale. She is reassuring when noting improvements and honest when identifying problem areas during regular sessions. Open to feedback, attentive and meticulous in her practice. Highly recommend giving it a try in connection with a rehab schedule or as a primary healing modality.

Her efforts helped move the "needle" (heh, see what I did there?) on a particularly stubborn case of planters fasciitis and a shoulder problem that seemed to be a puzzling combination of factors rather than a discrete, treatable diagnosis. Through working with Mila, I've also discovered how effective acupuncture is at mitigating issues I previously relied on massage to fix. By needling trigger points, Mila has made incredibly persistent and painful knots release, and has provided me with long-sought relief and relaxation. On top of all, Mila is friendly, professional, and caring. I recommend her highly!
