I've had a few acupuncture and hot cupping treatments from Michelle Ferry. I leave every time feeling rejuvenated by my experience. After a short interview with Michelle about my health and the physical patterns of my body, she gave me a diagnosis of where the energy in my body needed to be revitalized before she even began the treatment. The results of both the acupuncture and hot cupping last for weeks afterwards, especially by following the nutritional guidelines that Michelle also provides. The entire experience is so comfortable due to Michelle's personable and professional demeanor. Evolve is also a warm and relaxing studio with its Eastern-inspired decor. I highly recommend Michelle's healing services to anyone and everyone! read more

It's great to find a skilled acupuncturist. It's great to find a warm, compassionate, open-minded person that inspires you. What's even better? Finding a skilled health professional that truly inspires to you live a healthier and happier life. I saw Michelle for my first full acupuncture treatment. Her demeanor was professional, friendly, and warm. I was a little nervous (though I'd never admit it), but was soon at ease while she asked me questions about my overall health and lifestyle. She took plenty of time to explain the treatment process, what it might feel like, and answered any questions I had. I could tell at once how much she loves and respects her work; after seeing many health professionals over the years, Michelle was, in a word, refreshing. I left feeling great, and slept well that night. She even gave me (GAVE ME) "moxa sticks" ( to help promote energy circulation, she told me) so I could work on myself at home (these things are amazing, so make sure you ask her about them!). I went for a few specific reasons, and got far more than I expected. Thank you Michelle! read more

Everyone here is kind, thorough, friendly and expert. They treated me like family and I can't be more grateful for Dr. Megan, Paula, and the entire staff. read more

I started seeing Michelle in the eighth month of my pregnancy to treat my low back pain and my digestion, which was really off for a while. I felt better and better after each session and as I inched closer to my due date Michelle's own birth story and parenting experiences added to my knowledge base. As it would turn out Michelle ended up treating me on the birth-day of my son. I was in pain from an extended prodromal (pre-labor) phase--about 33 hours of really intense 10-second contractions. I missed two nights of sleep and I knew that I needed to get the ball rolling. My midwife agreed an acupuncture treatment might be just what I needed. Michelle gave me an incredible treatment that included Reiki and breath coaching (her doula skills at work) through some painful contractions on her table. After I left her office, my contractions were regular and steadily increasing. Just seven hours later my baby boy arrived healthy and 100% naturally! I know that Michelle's special interest in fertility, pregnancy and pediatric care was an essential piece in my very positive pregnancy and birth experience. I highly recommend her! read more

I was afraid to try Acupuncture for my first time. The sweet and kind receptionist was very helpful eliminating my fears. Once inside this clean, friendly and relaxing establishment Rebecca applied the treatment and before I knew it I feel asleep and it was pain free. My back has never been better. For people who stab you in the back for a living, they couldn't be nicer. Im very much looking forward to the next time I hurt my back. read more

I have two herniated discs and acupuncture has consistently helped when I have a flare up. I had a bad experience here in Chicago with an acupuncturist and I get a little woozy with needles. Thank goodness I found Samara!!! She is so gentle and soothing, just being around her makes me feel relaxed. I've seen her off and on for the last year when I have a flare up, and she has consistently helped relieve my pain. She is wonderful and I would see her for any/all other issues if something came up. read more

I've been seeing Dr. Wilkening on and off for the past year and a half, and all I can say is that she is awesome. She explains exactly what is going on to cause my pain and she gives me easy tips on what I can do to alleviate the problem. And the thing is, she is always right. Since seeing her my back and neck pain have decreased tremendously, so much so that I really do not need to go to her that often anymore....but if I do have more pain, I wouldn't go anywhere else besides here. read more

Michelle is amazing. I have never experienced such instant results from acupuncture before. Basically i suffer from headaches that last several days. They're not migraines, I think they're caused due to stress and anxiety. Anyway, they seem to come every 3 months on the clock. As soon as i spend a day miserable at home with a headache, and foggy headedness, I decide to pick up the phone and call Michelle(not her directly, but the office). Michelle has a very warm and calming personality. The second you sit down with her, you already feel more relaxed because you know you're in good hands. She really takes the time to talk to you, ask questions, answer questions, etc. I've never felt rushed. You can tell she is passionate about what she does and truly cares about helping you. My boyfriend has gone to her with shoulder pain. I initially found Michelle for him since he was in so much pain and after his amazing experience, I decided to try the acupuncture. Anyway, do yourself a favor and try her out. You wont be disappointed. The office is great too and very professional. read more

This is the only place that's brought relief to my chronic upper back issues, and I've tried many others. Dr. Megan is great. Beatrice's trigger point therapy kicks your ass but solves all your problems. read more

Very informative and professional. Michelle also has a great calming energy!

Samara, whom I see for acupuncture, and the entire team at Division Chiropractic and Acupuncture are superb professionals delivering important care in a low-key, clean, safe, and welcoming environment. The music--as another review said--is perfect. Interesting and a complement to the treatment (or they will turn it off). When I moved to Chicago I was worried I wouldn't find an acupuncture and massage place I liked as much as the one in my old city, and feel very fortunate to have found this spot. read more

I haven't had accupuncture before and Michelle was great, very reassuring and caring and its clear this is her passion as well as her profession! Looking forward to my next visit. read more

I have to say that going to Michelle has literally been life changing. I was referred to her months ago after years of treating my chronic hives and depression with traditional medication. Going to her I have seen an improvement in my overall level of energy. My hives are(knock wood!)getting better and my depression is the best it's been in years. She is professional, caring and dedicated. I knew nothing NOTHING about acupunture going in to this. Nada. And she has patiently answered every question. It is worth every penny. Your health will thank you. read more

Michelle has been essential to alieviating my aches and pains. She has very warm personality. I highly recommend her as she is an expert at her craft. I have recieved acupuncture in the past and it has not been as relaxing or releving as working with Michelle. She has squeezed me in last minute and accomodated my bizarre schedule. Highly recommend. read more

I met Michelle in March of 2009. After a year of trying to get pregnant, and my O.B. recommending that I start taking fertility drugs, I wanted to try another way. I started seeing Michelle. She not only administered acupuncture treatments, but also suggested foods to eat and avoid as well as herbs/teas to consume. Within 3 months I was pregnant. I also sought treatment from Michelle in the year following the birth of my son to rebuild my post-partum body. As my son approached his one year birthday I found out I was pregnant and was blessed with a baby girl in the fall of 2011. I credit Michelle with helping my body prepare for 2 healthy pregnancies and babies. She is wonderful, caring and compassionate, and I highly recommend her! read more

I've been seeing Michelle on and off since 2011 as needed and I have been very pleased with her services. I have had acupuncture from other providers before but she is by far the best I have encountered here in Chicago. She is very professional and skilled at her trade, with a great bedside manner. Her background in nutrition is a huge bonus, and she made some suggestions to me for diet alterations that have been really life changing for me. I really appreciate her holistic approach and truly believe in the power of acupuncture. Her treatments have been noticeably effective. Michelle provides expert treatment in a clean, comfortable, and healing environment. read more

I have been a believer in chiropractic services for a few years now, and love the services I receive at Division Chiropractic. The team is very friendly and truly cares about the total well-being of their patients. I would highly recommend this location and any of the wonderful people who work there. You will not have a bad experience no matter who you see. read more

Dr. Alicia is amazing! I had really bad whiplash after a car accident which resulted in chronic pain. Dr. Alicia was able to get me pain free and fully functional again. I won't go anywhere else. read more

It was one of the coldest nights of the year. And though she probably didn't mean to be cruel, in my opinion it was a pretty cruel thing Dr. Cohler did when she had me come to her office in tremendous pain only to turn me away. This was the first time a chiropractor ever had me come to their office only to demand such a large payment before treating me, and even before billing my insurance. She wasn't even willing to work out an affordable payment plan. She has a right to turn away anyone she wants and have a relatively strict prepayment policy, but she should have informed me before I made the trip, so I could have made other arrangements to get the treatment I desperately needed before it was too late. Thankfully I made it home that night though the journey was painful. read more

It was my first time to see a chiropractor and Dr. Megan was really nice enough to make me feel at ease during my appointment. She explained all the exercises that I needed to do to help me out with my acute back pain. Dr. Megan had a good bedside manner and even recommended me to check them out on fb/yelp for a discount with the therapeutic massage. How cool is that! I'm coming back this week to see Alyssa for my massage, and Dr. Megan for a f/u. Thanks Dr. Megan. read more

Another busy teacher (colleague) recommended Division Chiro and Acupuncture, and I finally booked an appointment. I initially was interested in acupuncture, but thought that I could also benefit from a massage. After back to back pregnancies and career stress, my previously strong and stable back was giving me trouble. I scheduled with Alyssa, and it was the best massage I've had. She was very attentive, put in some serious work on the right muscles to loosen my back, and I felt wonderful after. All flat and hard surfaces have increased back pain, so I had stopped getting massages. I, however, had no back pain after the massage. The space is also great. Lots of interesting books and tinctures and medicines; I felt inspired. I plan on returning to check out acupuncture and chiro services. I also appreciate that I heard back very speedily from Michelle with responses to my questions about acupuncture. I'm looking forward to incorporating Division C and A into my health routine. read more

I have been going to Division Chiro & Acu for about a year and have zero complaints and only positive things to say. I have seen Michelle (acu), Rebecca (acu), Alicia (chiro) and Paula (massage) throughout the year depending on what I think my body needs. I regularly see Michelle for acu and I think she's quite amazing. She takes time to listen to your concerns, pains, thoughts and frustrations and always responds in a way that feels informative and caring. I like that she sheds educated light on problems that western medicine doesn't address and she explains other ways to focus on healing aside from taking drugstore medications or going to see doctor after doctor. She actually makes you feel very good about seeking other means for healing and takes into account any uncertainties you have about herbs or Chinese treatments- never forcing something on you. She has a calming presence which keeps me relaxed during sessions. I also see Paula regularly for massage therapy and she's excellent. Depending on the day, I will ask her focus on different areas and she does a great job at noting where I'm tight and eases the tension. I love that she does as great of a job of doing a relaxing massage as she does doing a deep tissue. Not all massage therapists can do that! read more
