I recently relocated to the St. Petersburg area and was looking for an acupuncturist. I put out a…read moresearch and Acupuncture and Herbal Therapies was the quickest to reply. I booked an initial appointment and headed in later that week. The acupuncturist is very professional, a good listener, and good communicator. I have two lower spine bulging discs and some pain that radiates from a 2-year old knee surgery, so I had plenty to talk about. The first appointment was over an hour and included the overall physical analysis, quick treatment plan talk, and acupuncture treatment. The service was so good, I am making this my new acupuncture go-to spot!

A dear friend referred me to Kecia Fowler and I'm forever grateful to her because Kecia is perfect for me and for everyone She is calm, kind, listens well, asks leading questions to help draw information from me that it is relevant to my healing. I felt totally safe with her, right at our first meeting. Kecia has taught me so many helpful lessons like, I don't need to remember my trauma to forgive and or release it, to me that was HUGE! She also does this thing called Zero Balancing where she reads the energy flow through within the body and can detect blockages and with her gentle touch and acupuncture needles she can help get things back into a balanced flow. I love that at every session we talk first about what's going on and how I'm feeling emotionally and physically, because every little detail means something and the more she knows the better she can help me heal myself. I'd like to say it's like magic but it's not, it's the ancient art of Chinese medicine and acupuncture. In the beginning while I was going through the hard times of healing and letting go, I saw Kecia often but now that I feel amazing I still see her once a month for maintenance so I stay feeling great. If I have my way, I'll see Kecia for the rest of my life

I know that acupuncture is very healing in my past experience in another city. Twice it fixed a…read morefrozen shoulder - once in one visit and the other time in 4 visits. It has helped with other issues. However, going to Art of Acupuncture is another whole level! It is like going to a high end resort spa - decor, music, candles, heated massage bed- along with the acupuncture. So it is emotionally, mentally, and physically rejuvenating. Katie brings another level to it with her caring and her ability to adapt the needle placement to changing emotional, mental, and physical issues. I started here with lots of physical issues that had happened all at once and the trauma of the two storms during this time of physical pain and medical issues. I had almost no energy and no appetite. This pain and symptoms had lasted for 4 months and physical therapy did not help. After 4 sessions with Katie, I was able to walk normally and with no pain in knee, no rib pain from costochondritis, and my energy was flowing again. I felt mentally and physically capable of getting out and enjoying things again. My energy is flowing. She gave me advice that I actually took because of her knowledge and her caring attitude and that has also made a big difference. Now that I am feeling well, I am still going to go at least once a month because it may be the best thing I have ever done to feel better. Just talking with Katie is like great therapy, and then the spa environment, and the effects of the acupuncture - what a great experience. Marianne at the front desk is very helpful. Also, the way Katie does the needles, they don't hurt. I might feel 2 of them and am not even aware of the others.

Our lifeline! We…read morehave two German Shorthaired Pointers. The reason we came to Animal Alternatives is our oldest dog has allergies and we weren't happy with the conventional treatment offered by our neighborhood vet. With Dr. Lampru we can try holistic methods to treat problems and if all else fails utilize conventional medicine. Our 13 year old Pointer has arthritis in her knees. Thanks to the laser treatment offered by Dr. Lampru and her caring staff, I believe her life has been extended. Several months ago her legs were failing and I thought that was the end. I called the office hysterical and was treated with compassion and received a quick call back by the doctor. She suggested a calcium magnesium supplement. I am amazed that after several months on the cal/mag and probably in conjunction with periodical laser treatments our "first born" is doing quite well. I feel that this is because of Dr. Lampru's knowledge and experience. When we were going through that rough period where it appeared our dog was in her last days Dr. Lampru and her staff were extremely supportive and understanding. That meant the world to me as we have no children and our dogs are our "children". They understand how much we love our animals and that is so very important. That is why I highly recommend Animal Alternatives. Another benefit to being a client of Animal Alternatives is an emergency clinic is co-located at their facility at night and on weekends. So, if you should happen to need after-hours care they are good about notifying Dr. Lampru of anything that may need follow-up. We have received excellent follow-up on emergency situations because of this co-location.

I've tried sports massages, chiropractors, Pilates etc but this was my first time doing acupuncture and I am totally hooked. Dr. Max was very patient and answered all of my questions/concerns. She takes a very holistic approach and carefully examined my posture, gate, arches of my feet etc. We then discussed what may be the root causes of some of my discomfort and how best to treat the issues. After the examination, we did the acupuncture. I was slightly nervous at first but Dr Max eased my concerns. The needles didn't hurt at all but you can tell she knew exactly the right muscle points to target. Afterwards, my body was sore like the feeling you'd have after a really good workout or sports massage. A day later and I feel great! She even helped with my sinuses. If you're in St Pete's FL or Provincetown in the summer, I'd highly recommend!
