You are in excellent hands with Deb Rusenko. You will be greeted with warmth, friendliness, professionalism and respect. You will be listened to impeccably. You will *not* feel rushed. You will immediately begin to feel a calmness descend upon you, as tends to happen when you know that your needs will be taken care of by a highly skilled, compassionate, and sincere professional who has attained mastery in her field. Having had acupuncture throughout my life, I was fortunate to receive a very unique and special treatment from Deb. This therapeutic treatment involved the combination of acupoint therapy with essential oils, or aromatherapy. As an avid practitioner of yoga, meditation and various types of massage and bodywork, I am very aware of what's happening in my body, and the deep, profound relaxation I experienced during this session was not of an ordinary nature. It was the kind of extremely deep relaxation that associated with a genuine reversal of stress-related syndromes, or any type of illness or condition where one's nervous system is exhausted, or stress levels are high. Very deep and complete relaxation of the mind and body is hard to come by, and people spend years attempting to achieve such states. In all sincerity, within minutes I had achieved that state, and felt profoundly renewed on a deep level after the session. I know others who have seen Deb for various injuries or conditions and they, too, have been incredibly impressed by her ability to pinpoint what needs to be done to get you -- the client -- back to a place where you are not "afflicted" by whatever brought you into her office, be it pain, fatigue, allergies, or any other issue that is causing you discomfort and causing you unwanted distress. There are great acupuncturists and healers in the Pioneer Valley, and I have received benefit from several of them. Deb is special: she sees the proverbial forest from the trees, and also everything in between that is ordinarily unseen. read more
