testimonials

  • PCOS, PMS, acid reflux & acu

    ‘After keeping regular appointments I started feeling results. Less PCOS pain, less PMS symptoms with easier cycles. With feeling better I could focus on GERD and that even started being less intense… I would say go for it! Just try it! …I was terrified, and it has been one of the two best things I've done for my body!’

    - Kelli S

  • mental health & reiki

    I've had reiki before, but didn't feel it was effective. After just one session with Melissa, she immediately knew where I was holding anxiety in my body, and took the time to discuss that energy. I started crying (in a good way) because I've felt anxiety in my neck/chest area for years, and that led to a helpful conversation.

  • chronic migraines

    ‘I came to Sasha for help with migraine treatment and I have been overwhelmed by the rapid and effective success of the treatments. I have had significant and sustained relief after only three treatments and have maintained the relief with weekly/biweekly treatments. I cannot recommend Sasha enough!’

    - Anna S

  • chronic pain

    ‘Nothing seemed to help for very long and I didn’t want to resort to strong arthritis medications forever. Each acupuncture session brought relief… The time spent in the treatment room was very calm and relaxing. Sasha was very thorough in her examination. Before the session I was hesitant and a little scared. After the session, I felt more relaxed and was eager to come back.’

    - Pam W

  • fertility post miscarriage

    ‘To Sasha, it wasn’t a matter of IF I’d get pregnant, but WHEN. Sure enough, three months of weekly treatments later, I was pregnant with my son. I will continue seeing Sasha well into the pregnancy and beyond. I had no expectations for what acupuncture would be like going in, but my mind, body and spirit were blown wide open.’

    - Emily L

  • shoulder pain

    ‘Sasha has been fantastic. I went the route through orthopedics and honestly it didn’t help at all… She’s been able to alleviate almost all of my shoulder pain (was told I would most likely need surgery from my orthopedic) and tendonitis in my wrists and forearms. I still go about once a month to keep everything from regressing and she always takes great care of me. I would and have recommended her to anyone I know.’
