I decided to try out acupuncture and cupping to relieve some tension, and a friend referred me to Erin. I was a little nervous since it was my first time, but Erin explained every step of the process, which was very comforting. I was surprised by how well it worked and how relaxed and great I felt afterwards. The tension and anxiety I was feeling just melted away!! I can't wait for my next treatment! Erin was very knowledgeable, professional, warm and caring. She even suggested some herbal teas for my digestion and sleeping issues. I definitely would recommend Erin's services to anyone who is looking for a great way to relieve stress!

Why didn't I come to Petaluma Community Acupuncture sooner?!…read more I came here for plantar fasciitis (aka the worst) after trying everything my doctor recommended with minimal improvement. A friend suggested this place, and I'm so glad I listened. Total game changer. I started seeing Elizabeth and Steven, who set me up on a twice-a-week plan for a few weeks, then once a week after that, and it actually worked. My pain dropped dramatically, and I began looking forward to each session. If you've never been to a community-style acupuncture clinic, it might feel a little different at first: a big, peaceful room filled with recliners (each with its own colorful sheet) and everyone in full relaxation mode. You get comfy, they pop in the needles, and suddenly you're in the most blissful nap of your life. Elizabeth (the owner) and Steven are both amazing - super knowledgeable, collaborative, and they actually read your chart and adjust your treatment each time based on how you're feeling. You can tell they genuinely care about their patients. I hear Mackenzie is awesome, too. My daughter saw her and loved her experience! Payment is on a sliding scale after your first visit, which makes it easy to keep up with treatment. And don't miss the adorable little shop out front. I may have gone overboard on crystals, but hey, good energy never hurts! Once you go here to Petaluma Community Acupuncture, you'll walk out feeling lighter, calmer, and wondering why you didn't start sooner.

On this particular day, I was going to check out the tinctures they had in different drinks inside their little refrigerator. I was surprised to see so many different types of vitamins, as well as Replacement/supplements in their store!! I need to make an appointment with them next time so I can actually get Acupuncture! But the lady was very nice and greeted me. She told me the pricing since they didn't really have a price sheet. Initial consultation $80 return visit, $60 - session Not too bad considering the acupuncture and cupping place I go to in Sunnyville charges $120 for acupuncture and cupping, but granted thank you a 90 minute session at gin Acupuncture.

Of course everyone's TCM visit will vary but this was awesome. When I left, I felt recharged, less emotionally disconnected and frazzled like my body just got new spark plugs and a tune-up. I'll absolutely be back.

I have been a monthly client of Lisa Z at Indie Acupuncture for several years now. Most of my…read morevisits have been centered on getting the 79 year old me "in balance" as part of an overall plan to maintain my health. I use both Western and Eastern medicine treatments. Today was focused on pain under and around my scapula. Lisa used standard acupuncture pins for the pain outside the scapula. But for the first time she used healing sounds to go UNDER my scapula as well. By the end of the "1 hour" treatment my pain level dropped from an 8 to closer to a 2. This after almost 4 weeks of pain. It was like magic! My time invested with Lisa has paid off over the long run, but today it was totally focused on the "now." I'm not pain-free, but for today I am aggravation free! Update: it's 24 hours later and the pain under and around my scapula is no more annoying than any other part of my body.

Even tho I had never tried acupuncture before and was a little scared, they explained to me that they use a gentle style (Japanese and Korean, I believe), so I didn't need to worry about it being painful. Acupuncture was such an important addition to all my other treatments and therapies for my injuries. It brought me so much peace. For several months, it was the only time I felt completely pain free, even if it was just for an hour twice a week. Thank you Naomi and Nicole for everything you've done!
