FEEDBACK WE’VE RECEIVED
What Our Clients Are Saying About Us
Anna has been my favorite acupuncturist for about ten years. I recommend her any chance I get. I initially saw her in conjunction with my massage therapist after a car accident and her treatment was integral to my recovery. Been seeing her ever since. I love that she meets me where I am: sometimes I just need body work, sometimes I am having health concerns, sometimes I'm having mental health concerns, usually it's some amalgamation of all of it, and she meets me every time. I respect and appreciate that she is always learning, diving deeper into things or finding new things to better help her patients. As a part of the Portland health and wellness community, she has lots of recommendations for resources. In our work together we've done needling, cupping, cranio sacral, massage, herbal prescriptions, yoga, dietary modifications and other health and lifestyle recommendations. She's an advocate for the whole person and an excellent person herself! Thank you, Anna!
Miriam
When I began seeing Anna for acupuncture,
I had just come through a difficult, stressful
few years. I was anxious and experiencing
chronic pain in my hands. Not in good shape!
Under Anna’s wonderful and skillful care
as a practitioner, her intuition and deep
knowledge of how to heal body and mind,
I am a new woman.
I will be forever grateful to her.

Acupuncture
Acupuncture works by inserting hair-thin, sterile needles in specific points along the meridians to open blockages that have inhibited the smooth flow of Qi. Once this is done, Qi can travel freely throughout the body, relieving pain, promoting health and vitality.

Massage
Massage as a healing tool has been around for thousands of years in many cultures. Touching is a natural human reaction to pain and stress, and for conveying compassion and support.
We now have scientific proof of the benefits of massage – benefits ranging from treating chronic diseases and injuries to alleviating the growing tensions of our modern lifestyles. Having a massage does more than just relax your body and mind – there are specific physiological and psychological changes which occur, even more so when massage is utilized as a preventative, frequent therapy and not simply mere luxury. Massage not only feels good, but it can cure what ails you.
