I took classes here in Acupressure and I just want to say that I struck a gold mine when I found the Washington Institute of Natural Medicine. The classes were taught by Linda Khanzetian, a Doctor of Natural Health. Dr. Linda is an excellent teacher. I could not have asked for a better teacher than someone with her background and level of experience. She's thorough, patient, and answered most of my questions before I could even ask them. The wisdom that she shared I could not have discovered in a book on the subject or picked up from instructional videos. More than anything, her passion for the natural healing arts came through loud and clear. To say the least, it inspired me and further motivated my desire to practice Acupressure. At the conclusion of the classes, I understood a lot and felt like I received what I needed to pursue this area of the healing arts. I should also mention that I found the spa setting there to be very conducive to learning.

My mom was really reluctant to go and is now glad she did! This treatment center blends time-honored East Asian medicine with modern medical approaches, offering a more holistic path to healing -- finding the root of the issue not just managing symptoms. Dr. Parker was a GEM! She gave us a tour of their herbal dispensary, where they blend specific herbs to support internal healing, treating the body both inside and out. She shared how certain factors contribute to my back fatigue before starting my treatment. The acupuncture itself was a 2-3 on the pain scale, since I am ticklish, I did jump a whole lot. Acupuncture focuses on specific points to help restore balance and activate the body's natural healing mechanisms--it's like a reset. The cupping felt like a 1 on the pain scale. incredibly relaxing from start to finish. Cupping replenished the cupped areas with healthier blood flow, stimulating healing at a cellular level. Despite being ticklish, I didn't find either treatment painful. My mom received the same treatment for her leg and said she felt fantastic afterward. The clinic offers 1:1 professional acupuncture or discounted student-led treatments, making it accessible for all. My back feels amazing and I've had the best sleep in a long time. Parking is plentiful as well!

I truly and wholeheartedly believe that the team at Pulse care about what they do, and most importantly they care about the patient experience.

In reality, I needed more focused/personalized care but I could not find a reputable acupuncture clinic that accepted my insurance. I've been getting acupuncture to remedy some issues that have been challenging to resolve via diet, exercise, and other self-care means. I not only experienced a stressful/tramatic work situation but I also work with computers on a daily basis. Dr. Ali has been great in listening and working with me through issues and I saw positive results quickly. He's used a mixture of acupuncture and bodywork. During my first session, he took the time to sit down and review my history before we started treatment. This office also worked with me while we submitted claims to my insurance, so at least I'm able to obtain some coverage under my plan (without GP prescription, which I should work on when I have time...)

Dr. Ueno is a wonderful, professional and caring acupuncturist…read more I have been working with him for well over a year now on a consistent basis. I sought acupuncture as a part of my treatment since I had been diagnosed with neurological Lyme disease, similar to MS. With this disease I was battling many health issues due to the number of co-infections I contracted from the disease, leaving my immune system severely challenged. If you have Lyme disease it is extremely challenging and complicated as well as unfortunately being highly misunderstood by the medical community. Realizing that conventional medicine did not have the answers is why I turned to functional medicine and really began to heal in the last two years. In the past, before I was diagnosed and still seeking conventional medicine, I did try acupuncture for the first time and it really did help me significantly with my seizure disorder that I developed from Lyme. That was a turning point for me to seeking help elsewhere. By the way I was on three anti-seizure drugs that did not work and acupuncture was the break through to beginning to alleviate it. Western medicine is finally catching up to what we already to know to be a valid and extremely helpful practice. I would like to say that I have worked with other acupuncturist in the past who were great, but having acupuncture with Dr. Ueno was a very significant part to my continuous healing. He is certainly part of my success. He is exceptionally intuitive about what the body needs in terms of support to heighten healing. He is also very generous and kind as is his wife who works in the front. My healing has been a very long and hard process because there are many layers and it can be hard to turn the tides. I definitely feel like we broke through a great deal and couldn't be happier with my results. I no longer have seizures, and I am having more and more energy as well as reasonably pain free days. Best of all is my brain is functioning reasonably well and I have a return to most mental faculties at this point that I had lost. I could not recommend this practice more. The value is truly there and is a wonderful ally to one's overall treatment plan.
