Amazing practitioner and environment - super relaxing Availability and comfort is great read more

I was visiting from Massachusetts and saw Kathleen a few times to keep my momentum at home going. I've seen many acupuncturists and found her to be one of the best. She is a great listener, knowledgeable, and light-handed with her needles. When visiting family in Dallas, I will be sure to book an appointment with Kathleen at Beachside. read more

Easy to get an appointment, great patient care, and follow-up. Acupuncture treatment in a relaxing environment. I always feel better after a session with Kathleen. Highly recommended. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I've been seeing acupuncturists for almost 20 years now. Most just talk to you for a second, and then put needles in you. At Beachside they really do things differently. I felt heard and Kathleen really took the time to do a treatment where I can't wait for my next treatment. read more

Found this little gem tucked away in Addison a couple of days ago. Kathleen was awesome from start to finish. Since it was my first time there, she took a very thorough medical history and asked me several questions. This was all to get the best treatment possible. Once that is completed you go into a large room where other patients are to receive your treatment. The room is very quiet with the lights lowered, and with calming music in the background. Everyone is very respectful as far as being quiet. It's recommended that once the needles are in to stay put for about a hour. It was actually peaceful to sit there with no worries and have time to myself. It actually allowed me to have a big emotional release which is what I have needed for the longest. The pricing is more than reasonable. I definitely want to go back again and keep going with the treatments. read more

5 stars isn't enough. I've been seeing Kathleen for a few years now & can't imagine my life without her - really. I began suffering from constant pain in 2010 and went through numerous chiropractors, massage therapists, and a couple orthopedists. Not one of them has been able to relieve my constant pain & discomfort like Kathleen. She makes acupuncture affordable and accessible - not something I thought was available - but doesn't compromise her level of care. Anyone curious about acupuncture should check out her website and go for a consult. She's wonderful. read more

I have been visiting Beachside for acupuncture for a number of months. Working with Xenia to alleviate shoulder pain, allergies, and stress has been glorious. Her soft touch and her gentle explanations of how to manage these maladies is like gold. I visit frequently as we are in the middle of moving and a job search that I credit her with helping me end successfully by supporting my health and well being on a regular basis. Kathleen is an amazing practitioner and so knowledgeable about natural health and wellness! Even though I am moving 10 miles away, I will visit frequently along with my family. Thanks, Kathleen & Xenia, for the excellent care! read more

Love!! I fell in love with community acupuncture on a recent trip to California. To be honest, initially I thought the community setting was just an inconvenience I'd have to put up with to find a reasonable priced acupuncturist. But, the practice of community acupuncture really grew on me. I think so many times we feel isolated in our health struggles, and laying all alone in a Dr's cubicle kind of compounds that alone feeling. When I'm in a treatment room with others, even though we don't interact, it's soothing to know I'm part of a community seeking to take back their health. I've been seeing steady results under Kathleen's care. She's kind, soft-spoken and amazingly knowledgeable. I'm looking forward to getting more advice on nutrition from her, too. And, good news if you're afraid of needles. Kathleen has a super light touch, and you might not even feel them! read more

I had a pain from my neck to my elbow, it was gone after one treatment. Kathleen is amazing! The treatment is relaxing, painless, and affordable. I am glad that I found her. read more

I look forward to my visits at Beachside with Kathleen. She has been helping me with hot flashes, sore muscles, swollen hands and feet, allergies, etc. She'll adjust my treatment depending on how I feel at that time. I also discovered that I was dehydrated. Acupuncture has helped me immensely. I've been to several acupuncturists in California and overall has always helped me with all sorts of ailments. This includes taking supplements, eating healthier, and exercising. Kathleen has reminded me to take care of myself. I also appreciate making it affordable. The communal experience is okay - everyone is pretty quiet. read more

Kathleen is a phenomenal acupuncturist! She goes above and beyond what most acupuncturists do and her knowledge of the mind, body & overall well-being is astounding. I have made tremendous progress since I've been visiting her practice. She constantly provides exceptional customer service, always has a positive attitude and is extremely personable. The atmosphere of her practice is very relaxing, clean, pleasant and comfortable. She is also very knowledgeable with nutrition, herbal supplements and essential oils, along with many other topics related to improving ones health. I also appreciate the fact that Kathleen sets aside time prior to each treatment to discuss and document all updates and progress. I highly recommend Beachside Community Acupuncture to individuals seeking to maximize the far reaching benefits that quality acupuncture offers. read more

This place is a amazing, friendly and eye opening form of therapy. I have tried everything to get me on a healthy track for my body, I was nervous at first but it's so relaxing and I feel great after treatments. I would definitely recommend acupuncture here and for soo many health benefits. read more

Met with Kathleen for my first visit. She answered all my questions. The treatment was painless and restful. Looking forward to next weeks visit. Great way to treat pain without harmful drugs! read more

I am so glad to have discovered Kathleen and Beachside! My past acupuncture experiences were extremely effective so when I moved to Dallas I searched for a community acupuncture environment. This is by far the BEST and most thorough community acupuncture experience I have ever had. Her patient intake was extremely thorough and the first visit was personalized and the perfect opportunity for her to establish rapport with new patients. She is light-handed so you don't even feel the needles being inserted. She makes you feel comfortable, welcome, and relaxed from the very start. I highly recommend Kathleen and Beachside! I love that she provides affordable acupuncture care in a calm and welcoming environment. I love it and highly recommend! read more

Kathleen was great. I had been having some stress and anxiety, bordering on panic attacks and when Kathleen was done it was like a weight lifted off of my shoulders. Bonus- I could not feel the needles AT ALL. Looking forward to my next treatment! read more

I've used Kathleen's acupuncture center twice in the past year to help with migraines. I rarely get headaches or migraines, but when I do, they last around 36 hours and I don't respond to the medication. I decided to try acupuncture to alleviate the symptoms. The treatment area is relaxing with dim lighting, recliners, and the sound of beach waves in the background. I couldn't feel the needles at all, either time. Great treatment and the acupuncturist is kind and knowledgeable. read more

I have been dealing with major pain over the last 25 years. Two back operations in 1995 gave temporary relief but was short lived due to arthritis. Pain medication never really work for pain relief it just puts you to sleep or induces a fog in your brain. I have tried CBD oil with moderate success. Dealing with pain for so long was an obstacle for a happy retirement. I decided to try acupuncture because I can't take the normal arthritis drugs due to the blood thinners I am on. I made my first appointment with Kathleen Ellerie at Beachside Community Acupuncture. The first appointment was great. Kathleen did a thorough work up then proceeded to place the needles. The needles were not painful, and the environment was very relaxing with ocean sounds and essential oil diffused in the air. The results for me were very good so I made another appointment. I would come in with a new ache so Kathleen would place a couple more needles to address that area as well. I have been to four appointments and have a fifth scheduled. Anyone that has pain they can't get resolved or at least down to a tolerable level ought to give acupuncture a try. I recommend Beachside Community Acupuncture if you are in the Dallas area. http://voyagedallas.com/interview/meet-kathleen-ellerie-beachside-community-acupuncture-northwest-dallas-border-addison-farmers-branch/ Joe Wilson Richardson, Texas read more

Tree McPhail 1 review 7 minutes ago-Edit This is the most awesome place in the world. I fell in my church sanctuary in November of 2017 and ended up with a bulging disc at L/4-L/5 with impingement (trapped) of the sciatic nerve. The pain had become unbearable even though I was taking pain medication and muscle relaxers. The pain was excruciating, and only allowed me to sleep from 3 to 4 hours at night. I tried Physical Therapy, no help at all, then I was sent to a Pain Management Clinic for months of nothing but cortisone injections by epidural and injections, absolutely no help at all. I was at my wits end when I arrived here for a long visit with my sister. She helped me find Beachside Community Acupuncture and the very wonderful, educated Acupuncturist Dr. Kathleen Ellerie, an Angel. I have other health problems from Nueropathy, to a badly repaired wrist break (both bones from a fall), headaches and the list goes one. When my first Visit was complete I had tears of joy, for the 1st time in 2 and 1/2 years my pain was relieved in my spine and was stunned. The next visit reinforced the back since I had done things I was told not to do. The next visit was a real eye opener, when the treatment was completed and she was removing the needles, I told her something unusual was happening in the soles of my feet. She gently cradled my foot and placed her cold hand on my foot and I began crying, I had not had any feeling in the bottoms of my feet for over 12 years and I could feel her cold hands, oh what joy I felt and still do. The visit this week was yet another eye opener, my neuropathy that went from my soles of my feet all the way to my hips and recently presented itself in my arms, well once again my tears began to flow, I am able to feel a portion of my lower legs and my wrist pain is lessening. I will see her twice this next week before returning to Alabama and I can hardly wait to see what nerve or area she awakens for me. Please understand that this is totally unsolicited, in fact Dr. Kathleen Ellerie has no idea that I am posting this recommendation. I will tell her when I see her. I never thought that Acupuncture administered by the very educated, talented and caring Dr. Kathleen Ellerie would give me such awesome results. GO SEE FOR YOURSELF, IT WORKS AND SHE IS TRULY AN ANGEL. I wish I could take her back to Alabama with me. God bless you Dr. Ellerie, I will never forget the relief that your treatments have given me! read more

Dr Ellerie is fantastic! You feel really listened to, and cared about. She is very gentle too! Highly recommend!

Kathleen is a gifted acupuncturist with a genuine motivation to help others. She has helped me to feel improvement with many concerns and I feel blessed to have found her. For me, she is well worth the 40 minute drive each way. I like the relaxing atmosphere here, too. I find myself really looking forward to this time. read more

I finally got up the nerve to pursue acupuncture treatment for my shoulder and wrist pain and chose Beachside Community Acupuncture, based on reviews on Yelp and Google. I appreciate the fact that it is made affordable by Kathleen. Being my first experience, I didn't know what to expect, but upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised at the clinic environment. I liked the "community" setting, where there are several recliners in a room decorated with beach scenes along with relaxing ocean wave background sound. Kathleen has a very precise and gentle technique when inserting the acupuncture needles. I didn't expect them so fine! I never felt pain or discomfort in any way. The hour session was extremely relaxing and although I wish I could say that my pain was eliminated, I did feel some relief. I plan on several more visits to keep driving the pain away. Kathleen knows her craft and is very knowledgeable. I highly recommend visiting this professional. read more

I love coming here!! I feel comfortable and trust Kathleen. I feel relaxed every time I leave and have seen improvements in my skin. I would definitely recommend! read more
