I spent the better parts of my 20s and 30s avoiding pregnancy. So when it didn’t happen on demand when I was ready, it was a massive blow. My husband and I tried to conceive for a year, then suffered a traumatic miscarriage at 10 weeks. We were heartbroken and lost. Our medical team was unhelpful and largely unsympathetic. “Just keep trying”, they said. But I knew something was off. After diving into research on acupuncture and fertility, my friend Google introduced me to Sasha. I walked into our first appointment rattled and desperate. Sasha’s attentiveness, thoughtful questions and casual optimism immediately put me at ease. 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. Sasha’s treatments allowed me to access parts of myself that I’d been ignoring. I believe that that spiritual dissonance was contributing to my infertility, anxiety, and other physical issues that the white coats can’t see on the average blood panel. I’m fully drinking the acupuncture Kool-Aid. Can you tell?! Try it. I promise you, it’s worth every penny.

"With acupuncture, the first change I felt was an overall calmness. I would go through cycles of bad pain and then really bad pain and get overwhelmed, when I would be overwhelmed the GERD would flare up again. Just these vicious cycles over and over. So when I felt this new calmness, I got less overwhelmed. …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! …Plus if you get Sasha, she is the best! She calmed all my nerves my first visit and continues to share so much information, which I love! Her passion is evident and infectious. I truly feel like I've learned so much about bodies in general, my body, and acupuncture that I will forever carry with me."

“I have suffered from the aches and pains of arthritis for many years. I was diagnosed as a child with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I have tried medications (anti-inflammatories, steroids), muscle rubs, physical therapy and chiropractic my entire life. 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 placement of the needles allowed my tense muscles to relax and alleviate the pain. The time spent in the treatment room was very calm and relaxing. Sasha was very thorough in her examination. She listened to all my complaints about where I was having the most pain and took her time targeting the sore spots. She was sensitive to my reactions to the needles and always made sure there was not undue pressure. Before the session I was hesitant and a little scared. After the session, I felt more relaxed and was eager to come back.”

“I originally visited Sasha to address some chronic pain in my wrist. I was no longer able to practice yoga and had a difficult time putting any weight on it. After just a few sessions I was back to yoga without any soreness or pain! Seriously incredible considering I had tried massage, chiropractic treatment, different exercises etc. I also quickly realized that the acupuncture was helping with other long-term symptoms. My PMS symptoms (severe cramps, irritability, etc.) lessened and I noticed I was much calmer after each appointment! If you are thinking about trying acupuncture, go for it. Sasha makes you feel so comfortable and has such a compassionate and intuitive practice. Highly recommend!”

“Highly effective results for a long term battle with tendonitis in my elbow from bowling. Acupuncture sessions with Sasha provided immediate pain relief. After a few sessions, the tendonitis was completely gone.”

“I have struggled with migraines my entire adult life and have gone through an array of treatments ranging from medications, botox, acupuncture, and migraine surgery. These have all helped to varying degrees but none have been entirely successful in relieving my headaches. 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 and the practice (OACHM) highly enough.”

“I sought out acupuncture as a more comprehensive approach to aid in surgery recovery after I was having a difficult time recuperating fully. …I was impressed with how thorough the initial evaluation was, it made me feel like she was taking everything into consideration as a holistic approach. I appreciate that Sasha took the time to listen to me and customize a treatment plan for me as an individual to meet my needs. Acupuncture was able to mitigate my post-surgery discomfort and also improved my low energy levels, reduced my anxiety, and improved the quality of my sleep. In addition to that, she also recommended diet and supplement changes I could make that benefitted me as well. I’m so happy I tried acupuncture and would recommend it to others!”

“When I first met Sasha, I had quite the list of issues that I was dealign with. After her lengthy list of questions, I told her it would be easier if I just drew how I felt. I drew a tangled scribble. I felt such chaos in my body when I first went to her in December 2022. I went every week, then every other week and currently every 3-4 weeks depending on how I feel. Some of the most remarkable results from my sessions include a ~10 year history of vertigo accompanied by nystagmus. After one treatment… one, my vertigo has been gone! I have various other ailments that have been greatly reduced since going to Sasha. She treats me as an individual and makes no judgments….”
