I've seen Gabby a few times over the past couple months and like most aspects of body work or health in general, things take time. I'm finally ready to leave a review and commit to acupuncture as my principal form of care. My first experience was after I went for a run in the wrong shoes. My calves were cramping to the point where I could barely walk. They were like rocks. It was arguably the most uncomfortable I've felt in my adult life, and I've had some serious discomfort. It was probably because I was trying to be healthy and it backfired hard. I made an appointment with Gabby and within 18 hours the muscles had released and I was back to life. They weren't 100% but at least I could walk again. My latest appointment was to treat a lingering shoulder injury (which I believe was caused by a serious high ankle sprain in 2017). I had been caring for and treating the shoulder and the hip of the same side (both were tight) and Gabby thought I might be giving myself temporary relief but the root cause could be found by treating the opposite side of my body. Skeptical, but I let her do her thing. I left that office with immediate relief (even though I was laying on the shoulder in pain) but the best part of it is how I'm feeling 2 days after. The shoulder is feeling much better and last night was the first night in months that my elbow didn't hurt washing my hair. I fully believe and trust in acupuncture and Dr. Gabriela Davila. I've already scheduled my next 2 appointments. read more

Gabriela is amazing. She listens to your body and is always adjusting to your needs. She is multidimensional in her treatments. I see her regularly and I highly recommend her. read more

I can't say enough about IPA. I train daily and my body usually has an ache or pain here or there. A friend recommended that I try acupuncture and cupping. After studying it a bit and asking other knowledgeable people, I decided to give it a try and the results have been very noticeable. Gabriella took time to learn my history and made recommendations based on it, as well as my current training. I have been simply amazed at the results. I have no aches or pains that last any matter of time. Gabriella is great fun to be around and makes the experience enjoyable. She educates me on different areas too, such as stretching and diet. She knows a lot. As my health is very important to me, I plan on incorporating this into my lifestyle! Don't be afraid to try acupuncture, it is not painful in the least! read more

Gabriela has been extremely helpful with my lower back pain this past year. I live a pretty active lifestyle and work as a firefighter so my body gets beat up from time to time. After every session I feel so much better. Has also improved my mood and stress levels. Always look forward to my appointments. Would highly recommend to anyone. read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Gabby and receiving her care at The Stand Down For Veterans San Diego where she was offering her time and practice for veterans and their families free of charge. All day long she greeted people with the biggest smile and the warmest receptions. I am happy to say that the healing I recieved was only a tiny fraction of the care, compassion and attentiveness she offered to so many. While her precision and skill are remarkably accute, the only thing that is more impressive is her attitude. Thank you for being a great healer, Gabby! P.S. After your session, my elbow felt great the rest of the day. read more

I've had a bad lower back for awhile, and while stretching and doing Yoga helped for a little while, it would always regress back to feeling bad. I finally visited Dr. Davila to see if acupuncture would help me, and my only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. Dr. Davila was very friendly and attentive to my plight, and seemed to know exactly what was bothering me. After my treatment my back felt better than it had in years, and has continued to feel great. I give Dr. Davila the highest recommendation and would encourage anyone who's feeling pain to visit her; she's got the magic touch! read more

I twisted my ankle while hiking at night. The whole side of my ankle turned purple and I was limping for a whole day. One of my friends recommended acupuncture. As someone who works in the allopathic medical field, I would have never thought to use acupuncture for my ankle! So through a recommendation, I booked with Dr. Davila. She was able to squeeze me in that night for a session. When you first meet her she is extremely warm and professional. She immediately put me at ease. Her treatment space is very cozy. We went through why I was there and she quickly came up with a treatment plan for my neck and ankle. The treatment session was about an hour but flew by. It was so relaxing. The best part is the next day I was walking without a limp!!!!! I was seriously considering taking a day off work because I was in so much discomfort the day before and I didn't have to Thank you Dr. Davila. You are a true healer. I am definitely coming back. Book with her, you won't regret it!! read more

I had never had an acupuncture treatment before, but I was desperate to fix the lingering pain in my ankle. It had been six months of alternating annoying and agonizing pain, and I wanted to avoid painkillers or even surgery at any cost. Dr. Davila was very reassuring, and very sensitive to the fact I had never tried acupuncture. She was great about describing every detail that the session would involve, and it definitely set my mind at ease. She didn't just focus on that one problem area, she ensured my whole body was addressed, and once I got off the table, I had zero pain in that ankle. The best part is I haven't had any pain there since. Now I go to Dr. Davila not when I have a problem, but to prevent any physical issues from cropping up. If you want to truly improve the state of both your body and your mind, I strongly recommend Dr. Davila. read more

Where do I begin? Gabby is an expert. I've known her for over 5yrs and her passion and skill has always impressed me and helped me & my family when needed. Her procedures and advice coupled with excellent expert knowledge of her craft and science is what we trust, every time. She never gives less than 100% to our well-being. I highly recommend her to all my friends, family and clients. She's valuable to us all and we are grateful for her services. Last Saturday, June 30th, I was diagnosed with appendicitis and was immediately ushered to an emergency surgery at Sharp Memorial. The procedure went well. Post surgery is pain management and pain killers to help. I am not a fan of those drugs so I visited Indie Point, and asked Gabby to help me deal with this pain. Her work left me feeling great, and I'm much better condition than when I had arrived. She's also helped me when I shattered my left foot in a motorcycle accident. She's helped my wife a number of times and multiple friends and colleagues. Gabby's ability to read your issues and apply the correct remedies and recommendations are uncanny and integrity filled. Professionalism, and holistic expertise is a far better combination than the alternative. Indie Point improves your living well-being. Connect with her and level up. You'll appreciate that you did. read more

I just had My 4th Acupuncture treatment from Dr Gabby on My Right Thumb and My Lower Back and I feel so much better! I'd definitely recommend Dr Gabby to anyone who has chronic pain like I have had. Thanks so much Dr Gabby! read more

Dr. Davila has a sweet and magical touch. I felt her genuine care and concern during our session, which was also my first experience with acupuncture. I asked several questions both about the process and the science behind acupuncture, and Dr. D graciously provided thorough and fascinating answers. She's so knowledgeable about her work, and performs it with a full heart. Not to mention the acupuncture felt amazing. I didn't go in with any specific complaints -- just for general wellness. But I felt some sensations in my body that I'd never experienced before. I was truly stunned and would go back weekly if I could. Visit Dr. Davila, you won't be disappointed! read more

Extremely impressed. I was referred to Dr. Davila from a friend. I had tried acupuncture once before and it was an ok experience. But nothing like the personal caring experience I received from Gabriela. I was quickly greeted with a big warm smile and I knew I was right where I should be. It is apparent she has passion for what she does, and didn't just jump into it. She did a complete assessment and was actively engaging me throughout the process asking for feed back and adjusted her practice while explaining what's she's doing and why every step of the way. I have never had such personalized service in any medical visit. She even touched on a few other things I brought up without skipping a beat. By the end of our session my lower back which was killing me for 4 days prior had much less pain and better range of motion and I felt energized. it was clearly because of the treatment. And I never experienced any pain from the treatment that I would have expected. If you're looking for a comfortable, reliable, clean place to try acupuncture I would highly recommended Indie Point and Dr. Gabriela. You will not be disappointed... read more

Dr. Davila is great at her craft. I was in pacific beach and needed a quick treatment for my knee. Her consultative approach is really good. She talked to me about other things and treated me for a bunch of other things. The best acupuncturist I've ever been to. read more

To start off I am terrified of needles so this took me a while to even consider. But after having so much pain in my left knee, enabling me to squat or lunges or even bend down I figured I have nothing to lose. After meeting Dr. Davila, I was immediately confident in her ability to help me! She has such passion for what she does and in helping people through her practice and not only that, she is extremely confident in her abilities and knowledgable about her craft which made it a lot easier to trust her! After 3 treatments for my bursitis in my left knee I was back at the gym working out without the hindrance of the striking pain in my knee. I was amazed and a true believer in Acupuncture! From there she has helped me with many other issues including bronchitis as well as plantar fasciitis. Dr. Davila is incredibly professional and sensitive to any issue you may be having and truly eager and passionate to help with any area of concern. It's truly unbelievable what she does on a daily basis and how much she has healed me through acupuncture! If your looking for an amazing acupuncturist in the San Diego area, she is most definitely the ONE to go to! read more

I was so nervous to try Accupuncture, I've heard some bad stories and am not a big fan of needles. I have been a manicurist for the last 11 years and the constant hunched over position while working has really made back pain an everyday part of my life. I met Gabby and she listened to my issues and recommended I come in for a treatment, I am sooooo glad I did. She is knowledgeable and comforting and takes her time. I have only had one treatment but I feel so much better already I will be back! read more

When I had stress, this was literally the only thing that helped me. Gaby is amazingly nice. I've was originally worried to try acupuncture for fear of needles. I found out there is zero pain in the process and its amazingly healing. She also gave recommendations and exercises I could do for my anxiety on my own. Highly recommended! read more

Love love love acupuncture and Dr. Gabby!! I was a sceptic until I hurt my hip and was in so much pain after simple movements. My family doctor told me I needed 12 weeks of physical therapy. After contacting Dr. Gabby she suggested giving acupuncture a try. So glad I listened, after just a few treatments I could put my pants on without being in excruciating pain. Seriously the best decision I ever made and I didn't need 12 weeks of physical therapy and the relief was almost immediately. I trust Dr. G completely! read more

Gabby is the best of the best! I have trouble with my sleep and hormonal acne, and every single time I see her, my skin clears up and I sleep like a baby for the next few weeks. Not only is it clear that she knows what she's talking about, but her beautiful presence could put anyone at ease. She is such a light. :) I can't wait for my next appointment! read more

Gabriella is an excellent healer. Highly recommend experiencing a few indie point sessions. Come in with stress and leave with none. It's truly amazing the time and effort Dr. G puts in to understanding and helping your situation. Go, thank me later. read more
