Tamara is so great. I came in for a nervous system unwind. I had been so tightly bound emotionally and needed to get the energies opened up again. Everything about this session was just so beautiful and healing. The essential oils, the sound healing, and the acupuncture, of course! But it's all together in one great package. Her office is so lovely too. I was able to relax so deeply. I have loved acupuncture for decades, but Tamara really takes it to another level. read more

I've been seeing Tamara consistently for the past five years after getting a referral through coworkers. Honestly, I wasn't expecting much but after western medicine ruined my gut microbiome I was willing to try anything that didn't require me to take more medication. Tamara showed me the healing power of acupuncture, herbs, and cupping. With time and consistency, she helped me manage my SIBO and treated my allergic reactions, UTIs, asthma, and anxiety/stress. She is extremely knowledgeable and has such a calming presence that I trust whatever she recommends. Not only does she work with the body, I have been getting monthly integrative microneedling for the last six months and it has changed my skin completely. My skin looks bouncy, my pores shrunk, and the fine lines on my forehead are less noticeable. Being able to get microneedling done while getting my regular treatments has been so efficient and such a unique offering. I couldn't recommend Tamara more! read more

Always the best experience and happy to share that my energy and pain are always improved after a session. Regular visits are ideal, but even a one-time treatment can bring relief. read more

I had heard dozens of rave reviews from coworkers before I finally scheduled an appointment with Tamara. I had been meaning to see her for several different reasons: I have suffered from high levels of anxiety, have had chest pain due to anxiety, terrible PMS, eczema and some other physical ailments for which Acupuncture had been recommended. It was truly remarkable to witness how Tamara transformed me over the course of a few months. Her approach is beautifully holistic, and she wildly intuitive. I knew I needed quite a bit of help so I dove in with Weekly sessions and it became the #1 thing I most looked forward to during the week - because I knew that at the end of the hour I would leave in peace, feeling in harmony with my body. She has the sweetest and most supportive disposition and is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to not only her craft but all the homeopathic adjacent topics - cupping, chinese herbs, meditation, sound healing, crystals, breathwork etc. Using all her tools, she was able to address and resolve all of my physical issues and more. Overall, my body feels so much cleaner! I no longer have raging PMS, my anxiety levels are far lower, my life way more balanced, and eczema nearly gone! She is a magic worker - one for which I am truly grateful. I hope I am able to see Tamara the rest of my life! read more

I have been seeing Tamara for over a year now, and can't say enough good things. I am a long-time fan of acupuncture, having discovered the benefits after a shoulder injury, but Tamara's care is the best I've ever received. - First, she is a great listener. She takes the time at the beginning of every session to find out what is really ailing you, whether it is mental or physical. - If you're nervous about needles, she is very gentle and quick. - Her offices have a great ambiance, she never fails to play relaxing music or use soothing essential oils - She always goes above and beyond standard acupuncture with neck massages, cupping, oils, and recommendations for diet, supplements and self care I have personally recommended Tamara to more than one friend, and anyone who has gone has become a regular patient. If you're a first-timer to acupuncture you'll be spoiled by the experience, and if you have gone anywhere else you will know what exceptional service Tamara provides :) read more

Tamara is the absolute best! I am so grateful to have her to guide me through the dietary changes and improvements I have needed to make for some time. She has healed my body's ailments and shown me how to continue recovery outside of her office. My body feels more alive and vibrant thanks to her! Tamara is very knowledgeable, professional, and of course, hilarious! It's always a treat to see her - my body feels better and she is always a delight! :) read more

I look forward to seeing Tamara on my weekly visits for acupuncture. Her space and energy are beautiful and I'm very happy to have found her! Highly recommend! read more

I came to Tamara years ago when I was overcoming an injury & have been seeing her on the regular ever since! Her office is clean, inviting, relaxing & there is always parking. She always takes her time to listen to whats going on with my body and always finds a connection with my current ailments to things I would have never even thought about. She has treated me for an array of things; injuries old & new, digestion issues, allergies, TMJ, chronic fatigue, stress all of with her help, have significantly gotten better. She has amazing energy and takes hollistic approach to her craft, which I love. I look forward to every session I have with her- She's magic. read more

Tamara was the first acupuncturist I ever saw. I was actually a little nervous about the needles. But she made it so wonderful and it was actually one of the best experiences of my life. I was suffering from a strange sensation in my low back/ low abdomen that traveled down my leg and doctors were making me feel crazy because all the tests said I was fine. I saw Tamara once a week for two months and the sensation basically went away. I believe it was a nerve issue, but she is straight up magic and I refer her to any and everyone in search of treatment. Highly recommend, people!! Even now when I see her for stress/ sleep/ general well being, it is the high light of my day. I am eternally grateful she believed me and followed through until I was HEALED. read more

OK, so I admit it, I was skeptical of acupuncture, but I was also desperate. With less than three weeks to go until the Los Angeles Marathon, I was in horrible pain. Over-training had put my back into spasms and I could not lean forward to tie my shoes. Any torso twisting movement like trying to sit down in the car was a slow and deliberate process. Tamara did a thorough evaluation and recommended lifestyle changes. Add Magnesium to my diet and drink more water to help the elasticity of my muscles and stretch a little more. Then we started the treatment. I was wary of the needles and the pain they might cause. But I had little to lose figuring that there was nothing worse than the pain I was living with. I soon found that my fears were unfounded. I barely felt more than little tap. She skillfully targeted her spots and when I got up after the first session, I could already start to feel a reduction in the exhaustive pain. After the second session, I would estimate my relief at 80%. I could once again do an easy run without any spasms. A couple says later I had my third session and when I woke up the next morning, I was pain free! 10 days later I ran one of my better marathons thanks to Tamara's care. read more

Tamara is so amazing! She's very knowledgable in her craft and compassionate with her patients. Such an effective healer!

I've been seeing Tamara at Wren Acupuncture for over a year and since beginning treatment my health has greatly improved. Tamara is extremely knowledgeable, kind and greatly in tune with alternative healing methods and what is needed for your body, mind and spirit. In addition to acupuncture, Tamara is proficient in and has treated me with cupping, moxibustion, essential oils and has given me well-informed, great recommendations on supplements and Chinese herbs.

Highly recommend! read more

I love Tamara! I have been seeing her for over a year and she has helped me in so many ways. She is very intuitive, professional, and knowledgeable. My treatments will vary depending on what she feels I need that day, so we have done a mix of both acupuncture and cupping. Both always make a difference in my week and I always leave feeling more alive and energetic. I love her confidence in her practice and feel very comfortable in her care. She is a true master of her trade!!! read more

I have been seeing Tamara for about a year now. She is ethical, diligent and very talented at her practice. She really cares for every human that walks into her office and is very attentive to their ailments and needs. She has a great deal of knowledge revolving around eastern methods which include acupuncture, cupping, herbs, moxa...the list goes on and on. I have various injuries and ailments from many accidents over my life that range from fascia tissue, nerve damage, anxiety etc. and every time I Ieave her office I always feel like I just went a level up. I would highly recommend seeing Tamara and giving the power of needle therapy a chance. She is a bright light and for her to do work on you is a true gift. read more

Tamara Tifft has helped me in so many ways. Whether I'm stressed, having digestive issues or joint pain, she is well-informed on how to treat various ailments using acupuncture, cupping and other remedies influenced by eastern medicine. She has encouraged me to change my diet and target the specific foods that my body has trouble digesting. She is extremely knowledgeable and very caring. Tamara creates individualized plans for each of her patient's needs and goes or of her way to make sure all of her patients are receiving the best care. Highly recommended!!! read more

My first time entering the holistic approach for the new year and I must say Tamara was the perfect choice. She started with asking me how I've been feeling what I have noticed different etc. she asks to tend to your needs depending on the day or days you've had. I was living with anxiety and low energy. She placed the acupuncture needles in different locations that instantly relaxed me. As the music played I entered a place of powerful energy that made my body instantly comfortable. Two outer body experiences and connections with the universe later....I was sleep. I'm making this a once a week visit so that I can get more in tune with my inner self!!!! read more

I have been seeing Tamara for a few months since I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease in February and she is one of my pillars in fighting my autoimmune condition. Since our visits my antibody count has reduced by 30% and I am hoping with her, along with my diet and supplements, that I can be in full remission within the next year. She accepts insurance, too! I highly, highly recommend her. read more

I've been seeing Tamara at Wren Acupuncture for a year and half. Today was my last session as i'm moving out of the city and i'm very sad. I remember the first time i went there. I've never been to an acupuncturist before but i needed a change in my life. I was stressed, tired... I decided to give it a try. On our fist appointment, Tamara took the time to listen to me, asked about my conditions, my needs. I was not skeptical but i didn't know what to expect. Well after an hour or so, I felt so relaxed than i was surprised. From this moment on, I was looking forward to my weekly appointment. Each time I saw Tamara she asked about my week, how i felt, what i'd like to focus on (anxiety, sleep deprivation, soreness...). Tamara is also a very kind, lively, and funny person. She always makes me laugh (sometimes not intentionally). This is also why l love going there. After a year and half seeing Tamara, i feel better, i'm less stressed, less anxious, can run again... I will always be thankful for taking so good care of me. Tamara, you're the best and will be missed. read more

Tamara is an amazing acupuncturist! She is a true healer. She is intuitive, creative, and very knowledgeable and is able find the right treatment to help you overcome chronic pain, injuries, hormonal imbalances and digestive disorders. She is also a good listener. read more

I've been doing acupuncture for years and had to find someone new when my regular acupuncturist moved away. A friend recommend Tamara and I couldn't be happier! Tamara really knows her stuff! She takes a holistic approach to healing and is very intuitive to what the body needs. You can tell she really cares about her patients and loves what she does. She has an amazing energy, is professional and always follows up on how I felt after the last appointment. She has helped me with my shoulder impingement, digestion, sleep and we're now working on fertility. I love that she does more then just acupuncture. She does cupping, herbs, essential oils, nutrition and so much more. She is so knowledgable and I feel amazing every time I walk out of her office. She accepts insurance too which is an added bonus! read more

I am so grateful that I found Tamara. It's clear that she loves what she does and it shows in the level of care she gives her patients. I'm a borderliner with PTSD. I suffer from extreme stress. It's off the charts. She actually spent time on her own looking up the latest data on Borderline Personality Disorder and the potential treatment modalities at her disposal so that she could be better prepared for my next visit! Who, besides a maybe a mental health care worker, does that!? It's clear she's not there just for a paycheck.., she's there to help you feel better with all the tools she has in her repertoire. I just updated my google calendar for indefinite, twice a week visits with Tamara for acupuncture therapy. I'm finding it most helpful and we've only just begun! read more

Unfortunately, I left feeling like a copay paycheck, and nothing more. I had high hopes for my treatment with Tamara Tifft, as she is obviously well versed in her profession - smart, knowledgeable and capable. After 4 weeks of treatment, including acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping and essential oils and supplements, I remained in tremendous pain. I reported severe back and glute pain, and assumed it was sciatica. Tamara tried several approaches to ease my pain, but on 2 separate acu visits actually caused enough pain for me to jump off the table when the needles were inserted. I can handle pain, and didn't expect fast results for immediate improvement, but I didn't realize any improvement after a month of treatment. What offended me is that Tamara was aware of my high level of pain and didn't notify me that she'd be gone for 3 weeks. I literally had a treatment, walked to the desk, paid her, went to schedule another appointment and was told by the admin that Tamara would be gone for 3 weeks. We were having regular treatments. I would expect to have been informed by her so that we had a treatment plan in her absence - either home remedies or to see an acupuncturist in her absence until she returned. She didn't care that I would suffer without a plan for treatment. Following this, I saw a spine specialist and an MRI showed a herniated disc. It may be that she could not have helped with this issue. But her general apathy toward patient care ended my trust and our sessions. read more

Tamara is amazing. Not only did her accupuncture help my symptoms, she went above and beyond recommending other healing options. Love her and highly recommend. She cares deeply about her patients. read more

Tamara's skill isn't only in her technical ability as an acupuncturist-- she's a kind soul whose energy is warm and generous.

Tamara is absolutely incredible!! She was recommended by a friend due to my constant struggle with stomach issues. I had taken every prescription drug and over-the-counter pill but nothing worked. PCPs told me it was my age(33), heart burn, stress etc...none of which were the source of the pain. Because of her holistic approach she discovered a food allergy and started a customized treatment plan to heal my gut. Its the first time in 5+ years that I've made it weeks without stomach pain. Tamara's knowledge combined with her thorough approach makes her one of the best acupuncturists/healers on the Westside. She also helped with stress and adult night terrors. I highly recommend both her and a cupping session! It's better than a massage! read more
