I was a loyal client here for many years and truly valued the professionalism and care I once…read moreexperienced. This place meant a lot to me. Over time, however, it felt like the management style, particularly at the ownership level, shifted. Communication became inconsistent, and situations that once would have been handled directly and professionally were not. This was not reflective of the front desk team. Many of the therapists I connected with moved on. My most recent experience simply was not the right fit. I did not feel fully heard, and the session felt more rushed than mindful. After the session, there was no follow up or check in at all, which has never happened in any of my previous experiences here. I was tired of bouncing around, so I gave it time to see if things might improve. In the end, she agreed it was not the right fit. What was most disappointing was how it was handled. It took several calls, emails, and texts from me to learn that my sessions had been canceled less than 24 hours before my next appointment. The front desk told me the owner was supposed to call me about the cancellations and to suggest an alternative therapist, but that call never happened, and there was no follow up afterward. There was also a brief moment that stood out. I had left more than 20 percent, though less than the week before because the experience felt different. When I shared that, it was suggested that the front desk might not have passed the full amount along. That surprised me, as the front desk team has always been consistently kind, professional, and trustworthy. I want to be clear that the front desk staff are excellent. They make scheduling seamless, communicate thoughtfully, and create a welcoming environment every time you walk in. I am writing this because I cared about this place. I used to genuinely look forward to coming here. Moving on feels like losing something familiar, almost like losing a friend. I would still welcome a one on one conversation with the owner, as I would have appreciated that before. I hope the practice finds its way back to what once made it so special.

Also I believe it helped with labor and delivery being on due date and an easy one.

He also provided pointers on how to focus on breathing and body sensations during the 30 min of treatment. The space is clean and comfortable.

I've seen each acupuncturist, and they are all amazing! well educated, experienced, kind, truly listen to your needs, and most of all, help you feel better at a reasonable price! I could go on and on, but if you need help, check this place out.

I started seeing her weekly and she worked miracles, really. My headaches became less frequent & when I did have them, they were much less severe. After a bunch of treatments (& as long as I kept going) my headaches disappeared. My knee was still painful, but way more manageable. Cathy was very easy to talk to. She was gentle and attentive. She gave me lots of great tips about food and exercise. I even tried some herbs from her once, but could not swallow them, they were sooooo awful! (and I think I'm pretty tough). I really looked forward to my treatments, even if I did leave there a bit loopy sometimes. I would still be going to Cathy if I hadn't found a community acupuncture spot that I can actually afford. She is absolutely fantastic & highly recommended.

The studio is on the third floor of a building and shares bathrooms with the other tenants of the building. That was the only real negative of the experience. A dirty semi-public bathroom. There is some initial paperwork before your first appointment, it took less than 5 minutes. Then you wait in the lounge area for your masseuse. I got the therapeutic massage and it was just what I needed. The massage therapist checked in with me about the pressure and wasn't chatty. It was bliss. She really helped to work out some pain I had been having and I left much more relaxed than when I came in. An overall 4.5 experience.

I can't really express how overjoyed I was to find a massage therapist who was really good at what…read morethey do, who I liked, and was within 10 mins drive from my house! But I'm going to try my darnedest, cause I'm writing a review and words are, how do you say... Very important. Late last year I threw out my back at work, followed by my first ever tension headache (HOWCANPEOPLEGETTHOSEREGULARLY?) I did my regular "help I've screwed my back up AGAIN!" call to my chiropractor, who was able to reset things, but unable to relieve me of all pain. My dad emailed the lady he knows who massages. I was a bit hesitant because my dad has seen some pretty strange people in the past, I'm glad I was in such pain that I agreed to pick up whatever appointment Emily had available. It was one of the best decisions I made in 2010. I hobbled in to see her on a Saturday afternoon, I was surprised to find that she was not much older than I, very professional, and when we went over the little intake form her questions and comments were not only valid, but she seemed to take an actual genuine interest in how my (very physically demanding) job affected my general health. I have, in the past been underwhelmed with massage experiences because I feel like they worked too lightly on me- Emily was able to get in and really work the knots outta my muscles without it being uncomfortable. A good balance of strength and knowledge! She's now become the go-to for my dad, mum and I. I have finally been able to recommend somebody who is affordable, easy to contact and schedule with, and nice. She also let me know about a great deal this December where you could buy 4 gift certificates for a discounted rate and get a free massage for yourself - I was able to make my mum, aunt, and a couple friends happy to receive the gift of relaxation, while shopping local and getting a little something for myself!

So far I've felt huge tension relief and I'm able to focus at my sit/stand desk at work. Plus, my carpal tunnel has started to ease up after appointments. The space is warm, calming, and welcoming. They always have water and tea to help hydrate before or after appointments. Ball Sq is an easy walk from Davis, and there's plenty of parking to be had.

She even helped me with recovery from a recent surgery. I have been to one other acupuncturist over the years and didn't get many results, but after just four sessions at Acupuncture Together, I'm coughing less and my sinuses are doing well! I am a skeptic turned believer! You won't get the fancy, private room with heated table, like other expensive facilities, just a comfy, clean recliner with white noise in a shared environment of like minded people. Everyone is super respectful and within minutes, you're relaxed and on to a lovely 45 minutes-hour of total relaxation! I leave there with so much clarity and ready to take on the day! I highly recommend!

I've been coming here for years now whenever I've had flare ups of chronic headaches and it's always helped. I did not think I'd ever get over the communal aspect but everyone has their own space and respects the peaceful vibe. If nothing else you'll get some of the most peaceful rest of your life out of it. This place is an absolute gift to the community.

I am a believer in alternative medicine, but not a fanatic…read more When I have a physical or emotional problem I try first alternative medicine, and if the remedy does not work I switch to regular medicine, knowing that regular medicine carries a lot of side effects. Anyway, I went to Dr Bhutti for a chronic sinus infection and after two weeks of fever and respiratory problems that did not want to go away. She was strongly recommended to me by three friends, after I had started panicking since I was getting worst and worst. In 48 hrs I was back on my feet, fever finally gone, and after few days my nose was totally clean. I do not know the connection but in few days also my skin looked much better: tight and bright and I eat much less than before since I have no more craving. I am steadily losing weigh; although I did not mention my craving/weight problem to Dr. Bhutti at all. I think there is a re-balance in my total health. So, yes I strongly suggest Dr. Bhutti to anyone wants to improve its health. She has been studying, teaching and practicing Tibetan Medicine since 1960 and she worked for the Dalai Lama for many years. Finally, her prices are more than honest and fair. Ciao.

I've been coming here for 5 months and had kidney stones completely disappearing. Body aches that is going away. Dr Bhutti is an amazing person, she has been doing this for over 50 years. She cares for each patient like no doctor I've ever had. I drive 3.5 hours just to come here. The herbs that she gives you don't taste the greatest but that's to be expected. I don't even comprehend every aspect of eastern medicine but I'm a firm believer in it. If you are worried about eastern medicine not working trust me it does but takes time to kick in. One day you're in pain and next thing you know it's gone.

Well, I just finished my 10(ish) series with Daphne, and I already miss her! I probably would have…read morekept going for forever, but Daphne was honest enough to tell me that she thought I had reached the full benefit of the rolfing series. (However, she did invite me back for tune-ups in the future, whenever I feel like I need them!). Overall, my body feels much more elongated and looser. I actually gained an inch or two in height, and even my mom would be proud of my posture now. My core is straighter and clothes fit better. My shoulders are even, and my right shoulder (chronic bursitis from playing competitive tennis) feels so much better than it used to. I honestly haven't had any issues with my shoulder, IT band, or headaches for awhile, and I'm attributing it to Daphne's mad skills. I just feel... healthy. I highly recommend rolfing and Daphne to just about everyone. After a few sessions, you will feel great!

This review is based on my one experience for accupuncture only…read more So I had my my first experience with accupuncture yesterday! I had never done it before so have nothing to compare it to but think I can be objective about the service at Cambridge Health which was very good. My accunpuncturist (Marilyn) was friendly and thorough in her questions prior to beginning. Marilyn clearly believes in the medicine of accupuncture and helping people which got through some of my cynicism. She made me feel really comfortable and made sure I didn't have any questions or qualms before starting. I actually don't have any physical issues (knock on the old wood) aside from weak ankles from sports but it turns out that it's best to have accupuncture before you have problems as a preventive health measure. The needles did not hurt (a few stung for a second) and I could actually feel stirrings in my ankles from the needles in my scalp! The appointment lasted about 90 minutes but flew by. I am still not 100% sure about the powers of accupuncture but afterwards I had a feeling of euphoria akin to Peter in Office Space after hypnosis! I also had football practice that night and my previously sore left ankle felt pretty good. I know, it could all be in my head, but I really enjoyed the experience and made a second appointment. They are running a special right now- 50% off your first two treatments if you call before 9/15 so give it a try!
