Went to Dr. Zhao to see if there was anything he could do and he HEALED me. It has been years and no sign of hypothyroidism returning. Between his acupuncture and herbs, I felt like I was 22 again.

I truly cannot say enough good things about Dr. Zhao. I highly recommend him and am forever grateful to him for his help.

For many years, I have collaborated with a Holistic, MD, Neurologist, who loves Acupuncture, and offers it in his own office. So I have worked with many acupuncturists over time, and some who are somewhat famous. The Acupuncture treatments at Pinion are the very best I've ever experienced! My body is energized and grounded!

At 63 years old, I am so happy to have caring and expert care that I can afford. This medicine helps my body find a way to cooperate with the healing. It's not symptom management and it's not a band-aid. The weekly acupuncture has begun to change my response to the world around me in a grounded, positive and connected way. Arthritis has healed up, my organs are working better and more in harmony with one another, and my shen is bright. I love this place.

I appreciate the kindness and caring attitude that Alaina brings to her practice. She is an excellent practitioner of Oriental Medicine.

When I first came to Alaina, I was feeling extremely run down. Despite my vigorous Bikram Yoga…read morepractice and eating very little, I was not losing weight. After only 3-weeks of acupuncture treatments, along with a shift in my dietary habits and some Chinese herbal supplements, I'm feeling terrific, I have more energy and endurance, and I am noticeably thinner. I'll be 50 years-old in 2 months, and I had started to attribute the girth of my upper abdomen and puffy belly as simply being signs that I was getting older. However, Alaina suggested that I had an alternative: that I could be more youthful with her help. She explained to me that the treatments and changes she suggested for my daily diet would speed up my metabolism and give me more energy. In short, it's working! The puffiness in my upper abdomen is just about gone and I've lost an inch in my belly already, and I have exponentially more energy! The shift in my energy and endurance is particularly notable because each of my Bikram Yoga sessions consist of 90-minutes of 27 poses in 106-degree heat. There have been a couple of days where I practiced twice in the same day (3 hours total) and I still have energy to get my work done. The ladies at my yoga studio are definitely noticing the changes too. They've started to ask me what I'm doing that has led to a shrinking waistline, so I have to keep a stash of Alaina's cards in my wallet at the ready! If you are looking for a caring, insightful expert to assist you in promoting your health and well-being so you can fell amazing again, I feel comfortable telling you that you should definitely call Alaina right away to receive your free initial consultation

I do not recommend this office…read more Communication is extremely poor and access to actual providers is limited. All communication is funneled through front office staff, and there is no direct way to speak with a medical provider in a timely manner. Appointments to see a provider are scheduled weeks out, even when issues are time-sensitive. In my case, I had a medical concern and made multiple attempts to contact the office -- phone calls, messages, and emails -- and no one responded. Lab orders were delayed for weeks, and when they were finally sent, they were unsigned, making them unusable. I had to call again to try to correct the issue and again received no follow-up. The lack of accountability and breakdown in communication was unacceptable. The experience felt disorganized and unprofessional, and ultimately I chose not to return. Notably, my provider has since left the practice as well. If you are seeking responsive, medically sound care, I would advise looking elsewhere

There aren't enough words to express how much Laurie and her invaluable work mean to me, and how…read moremuch the both of them have transformed my life. As someone suffering from a rare, chronic breathing condition for which recurrent surgeries are necessary, there remains no long-term sustainable solutions. I've been seeking out various resources in the Albuquerque/Santa Fe area for alternative modalities of healing treatment. Nothing, apart from surgery itself, has provided me with as much relief, freedom from pain and discomfort, and overall well-being, as sound therapy. The work is powerful and the effects are immediate, lasting, meaningful, and impact not only physical healing, but psychological and emotional healing as well. Aside from experiencing what felt like nothing short of a miracle on the physical front, continued work with Laurie has left me feeling healthier, happier, and more at peace with and connected to myself than ever before. I sometimes describe the treatments to others as 'a massage without being touched,' only the treatments are even better and more relaxing than a massage, and the impact on both physical and emotional wellbeing are beyond that which I've found any other form of therapy to be able to accomplish. The time and care that Laurie puts into individualized treatment planning for her client's particular needs is astounding; I was completely floored by the amount of care and support I felt from Laurie, beginning from my very first treatment. I don't think I could have done a better thing for my health than sound therapy with Laurie; she cares so deeply about her work and her clients, and her intuition lends itself to her incredible skill. Working with Laurie, I have not only felt that I've taken a positive step towards my own healing, but have gained an ally, supporter, and friend along the way.
