I was referred to Yasmin by a friend last year, when I was suffering from a back injury and just…read moregeneral physical stress and exhaustion that likely cause the back injury in the first place. I'm personally skeptical of much herbal or "alternative" medicine but was happy to discover that Yasmin's approach was refreshingly practical and professional. She treated my injury and my body as a whole and her body work and massage are amazing! She focused on helping me recover completely and trying to improve my health overall. I've since come to her to treat a little case of "travelers gut" that I picked up on vacation, which she treated with affordable herbs and practical biology. Yasmin offers good overall health and wellness services and has flexible hours :) I'd visit her more if she had an office in san francisco but she's still often worth the trip to Oakland.

I'm happy I did though, because her treatments have really helped reduce my migraines, headaches, and occasional body misalignment issues. I have gone from almost daily headaches/migraines to sometimes only 1 every other week. AMAZING. The office and rooms are really nice and relaxing. Just remember to give yourself some extra time to park. :)

I'm a veteran of bodywork, a regular massage client and dabbler in other therapies. I feel qualified to endorse Priscilla as the best who has worked on me. She understands the physiology of musculature and knows exactly what to do. Her sensitivity to both physical and emotional manifestations of stress provides the perfect combination that will leave you relaxed and energized at the same time! I love her, my daughter loves her, and we will be consistent clients as long as she is here!

Her keen sense of the best methods of getting things into place ( without the excessive use of force other clinics have used) keep me coming back.

Dr. Anna is great! I started going to her about a year ago (maybe longer?) when I was doing a…read moreroller derby training program. I was in pain and under a lot of stress from injuring my wrist and lower back from falling a lot, was in the midst of a masters program and working part time. After seeing Dr. Anna regularly I was able to recover from my derby injuries much faster and she also helped me with my chronic neck tension and lower back pain. She is also very thoughtful, kind and funny. Not to mention extremely thorough and non-judgmental! Also, there are cute dogs in her office and a lovely front desk person to assist with all of your paperwork and appointment needs. They don't accept insurance but do offer discounts for students and folks who do derby (maybe other sports too). I would highly recommend her!

I was resistant as I have already taken so much out of my diet, but Aria assured me it would help. Honestly as someone who is a little fat I felt that she pressured me into it. It wasn't fun, but I did try it. Right away I felt terrible, so I emailed her. She told me this was normal and it would get better. The acupuncture was helping it but when I didn't see her my digestion went back to bad. After this I stopped seeing her as she went on leave. Unfortunately I followed this advice for years, thinking it would "fix me." I have since then learned this was terrible advice, as I have IBS. When I tired to each Paleo, I removed all of the grains from my diet and then added a lot of inflammatory vegetables. This was NOT the correct diet for me. I am now on the Low FOD-MAP diet and am better than I have been in years! Let me be clear acupuncturist ARE NOT DIETITIANS. DO not follow her diet advice. I did email Aria in the past year and ask why she would give me this advice. She did not take responsibility for giving me the wrong advice. I found her response very disappointing. She did not seem to understand how much this advice hurt me. If you have IBS or any digestion issues please see a registered dietitian and your doctor. It took me years of pain to get here.

Something felt very right about her and I called to book an appointment. The massage was everything I needed and more. It's beyond a massage, it is body work, she did some cupping and vibration healing, it felt like she had 5 hands. I've been working from home for the past year and sitting in very odd positions, my back was killing me and she wiped away the pain with a 60 minutes massage. She was so great, I decided to book a second appointment before I left for 90 minutes, which was even better than the first. Erin is a genuine, friendly and comforting soul, I am so glad I found her. I will certainly be seeing her again if I'm back in the area. Thank you Erin!
