I've been seeing Claudia for years now, and I consistently feel better after every single session. That kind of reliability is rare, and it's one of the main reasons I continue to go back. Each treatment leaves me feeling more balanced, relaxed, and physically improved. She truly listens and tailors each session to exactly what I need at the time. I also really appreciate how accommodating she is -- she always does her best to fit me into her schedule, which makes it so much easier to stay consistent with treatments. I'm incredibly grateful for her care and highly recommend her to anyone looking for lasting results and a practitioner who genuinely prioritizes her patients. read more

Claudia has got it going on!!! She is so knowledgeable with my female body in transition! We have come up with a plan to best take care of my body including very good supplements !!! I am so grateful for Claudia! read more

I am a 64-year-old active man with several completed marathons over the last decade. In December 2023, I was diagnosed with high blood pressure and adult-onset type 2 diabetes. Rather than immediately starting the series of medications my physician strongly recommended, I chose a different path. My decision was influenced by my mother's experience--after being diagnosed in her early 60s and following a conventional treatment plan, she faced irreversible cognitive and mobility challenges within eight years. However, I do take a baby dose of blood pressure medication (please do your research and consult with your doctor before making any medical decisions). Natural Healing Ways has been an invaluable part of my journey toward long-term health. If my progress continues, my A1c levels will soon be within a range that even the AMA considers non-diabetic. My goal is to lower my blood pressure to a point where my physician agrees that medication is no longer necessary. I discovered Claudia Weitkemper and Natural Healing Ways through my wife's recommendation. I began with a consultation, laboratory hair sample testing, and weekly sessions, combined with a personalized supplement regimen. The results were immediate and profound. Driving home from my first session in the East Bay, I noticed a significant difference in how my body felt. Through ongoing evaluations and tailored supplement recommendations, Claudia has played a crucial role in my health transformation. I have gained a deeper understanding of how stress hormones impact my well-being, detoxified my body from environmental toxins identified in my tests, and learned how to make consistent lifestyle adjustments that are within my control. Most importantly, I have been empowered to take full responsibility for my health. I now have the knowledge and tools to support my well-being naturally. I cannot recommend Claudia Weitkemper and Natural Healing Ways highly enough! read more

I had never done accupuncture before but i was in excruciating sciatica pain and got referred to Claudia by a friend. I called her on a Friday because i couldn't make it through the weekend in that much pain. 3 visits later no pain and she also fixed my long time neck stiffness in the process. Definitely a fan of accupuncture now and i will be coming for maintenance. read more

Claudia is awesome. I have been coming to Claudia for acupuncture. I have been dealing with fatigue, joint pain and hormonal issues.

I've been seeing Claudia for over 6 months now. I originally visited for her 21 day cleanse which was fantastic and can't wait to do it again. Really gets you on track! During the cleanse she provided supplements, acupuncture, and not to mention she introduced me to the coffee enema which I love for detoxing. She also did coaching and check in calls to see how we were doing along with a solid shopping and recipe guides. I see Claudia about 1 time a week- she's kind, engaging and provides valuable insight for your overall well-being. I also did the hair follicle testing with her, and I'm currently working with her on a protocol for the last 2 months. I was having brain fog, lack of energy, and kinda felt disconnected from myself. Working with Claudia has really enhanced my mind, body, and confidence. Her rooms are always clean, cozy, and welcoming. I love the standard process protein powder she offers it's one of the best I've ever had. I really enjoy my visits and look forward to seeing Claudia and getting my acupuncture every week it's my highlight! I also plan to do some coaching with her soon! read more

See all

I started seeing Claudia after suffering with post Covid issues. I like Claudia's balancing of her medical background with eastern practice of acupuncture. Little did I know how important it would be. I was diagnosis with cancer so now Claudia and I are working together to support me through chemo and surgeries. Easy parking. Nice therapy rooms. read more

I have been seeing Claudia for a few months to heal adrenal fatigue. In these months I've gone from hardly being able to walk without exhaustion to walking several days a week.

Her depth of knowledge is beautifully complemented by her human spirit and kindness. If you are ailing in anyway, I highly recommend you give her a call! read more

I went to see Claudia for the treatment of chronic eczema that would show up at different times in different parts of my body. I have tried multiple things to treat it over the years including changing eating habits with mixed results. The last bout of eczema on my leg was persistent and only after treatment with Claudia has it gone away permanently now for a couple of years. I keep going for regular appointments for maintenance. and I'm amazed at how it shifts my overall sense of well-being. read more

I highly recommend her services to anyone looking to prioritize their health through holistic healing and acupuncture. read more

Claudia is the most grounded, wise, authentic and present person I know. I have been doing her Evolve Spirit Coaching for close to 2 months now and feel she is extremely helpful. She is great at clearing energy and holding the space to work on a deep level. Each week she leads me through a guided meditation and teaches me about a new topic that we work on together, such an chakra alignment, intention, or trauma work just to name a few. I continue to learn every week and grow. Cannot recommend her enough. read more

I have nothing but positive things to share about my experience with Claudia. I went to her 10 years ago for support around fertility issues that eventually led to a healthy pregnancy and returned to her more recently for perimenopause and chronic pain issues. She is very knowledgeable and I always feel so much better after my treatments. I can feel a huge improvement in my symptoms after two months of treatment with her which says a lot because my western medicine doctors had nothing to offer except surgery options. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Claudia is an amazing healer. She is not only an acupuncturist, but a naturopath, a nurse, and a spiritual coach. I first started getting treatments from Claudia over ten years ago. She's treated me for stress, adrenal fatigue, HBP, and often times a much needed "tune up". She is easy to communicate with and offers supportive advice. I feel very safe, supported, and cared for when I'm in her care. Through Claudias knowledge, expertise, compassion and support, I have learned how to live a more balanced, healthy, and joyful life! read more

I have been coming to Claudia for acupuncture and herbs for many years. Her practice is always very comforting. I nearly always go into a "zone" during treatment that is somewhat like sleep but not quite. I have experienced relief from pain after treatments, and she has given me herbs and topicals that have helped for specific things. Mostly, I experience the treatments as subtle (there's nothing invasive going on) and so I feel like they are more directed to having a positive effect on my overall health. They perhaps keep parts of me from getting stuck, so speak. read more

Claudia at Natural Healing Ways is a fabulous practitioner who always knows how to treat my health issues. I have been a long time client who looks forward to her comforting treatment area to facilitate my healing through acupuncture and herbs. Highly recommend her services! read more

I wanted to update my review as it took several months to clear the build-up of supplements from my liver, which were prescribed in much higher amounts than those recommended by the manufacturer (at a 20% higher price). Some of the supplements were also contraindicated for my thyroid condition. My doctor advised me to be much more careful in the future. Luckily, there does not appear to be any lasting damage. It felt important to write a follow-up since my initial review focused mainly on what felt like dubious sales tactics and a lack of improvement in my condition. I think that when we are feeling vulnerable, we don't always question our practitioners the way we should. That said, I'm glad to see that other reviewers have not shared my experience. read more

Claudia is a wonderful acupuncturist! I highly recommend her. She's kind, caring, and very knowledgable.

Claudia is such a great acupuncturist. Very wise and knowledgeable. I've been seeing her for many years now and it's well worth the extra distance I have to travel to a Berkeley. She's helped me with a variety of different ailments and I highly recommend her! read more

I am so grateful for Claudia's experience, kindness and professionalism! I had a shoulder injury which was causing a lot of discomfort. I read some reviews on Claudia and called her.

I have known Claudia for over a decade now and originally came to her for acupuncture help for sciatica. Over the years she has assisted me in many ways with both physical as well as emotional healing and I am truly indebted to her.

She is a true empowerment of my healing of the heart, mind and soul, as I am my own healer and she is the catalyst to my success in such a journey. read more

Claudia has had such a positive impact on my life and wellbeing! I cannot recommend her enough

I have been seeing Claudia for a few months. I went there with horrible pain in a new hip which was put in my left side over a year ago and has been still very sore. It is finally calming down now with the acupuncture from Claudia along with some supplements. I alternate the visits from Claudia with a very good bodyworker. Claudia knows exactly where to place the needles for acupuncture and I always feel very calm and well when I leave each session. The supplements she has given me have helped as well but I sometimes think there are too many. One can let her know about that if needed. She is amenable to changes one needs. I love her acupuncture because it is done very carefully and takes very little time to set up. She has been doing it for so long that it feels as if she knows me immediately. She also comes into the room to check each time to lovingly find out how I am proceeding in my session. I have sometimes great dreams while I am there as I relax so well. I had a problem with one of my feet and she gave me one session for it....it soon got so much better. I highly recommend you to see her. Barbara read more

I've been seeing Claudia for several years, and she has been so supportive of me and my changing body. Claudia always provides a caring and nurturing environment to relax and feel supported. She has helped me alleviate hot flashes from peri-menopause through both the use of acupuncture and herbal supplements. She has provided support and remedies to help me when I am stressed and depleted of all energy, as well as help me with lower back pain. The more I work with Claudia, the more I learn about my body and how important the body-spirit connection is to healing daily stress and long term trauma. I feel so blessed to have Claudia as a resource in my healing journey. read more

I just started seeing Claudia about a month ago and the experience has been wonderful so far. She's a talented healer and a kind, wise and compassionate person who works in a caring and professional manner.

Claudia was a lifesaver during Covid SIP, as her gentle, nurturing, and effective remedies helped me manage stress, emotional pain, and nutritional deficiencies.

Claudia is truly a miracle worker! I have chronic debilitating pain and various health issues from Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and have had 7 surgeries that have resulted in severe nerve pain and mobility issues. I thought I would never get off pain medication or get my life back, but with Claudia's healing touch I am off all prescription medication and have never felt better! She is an incredible listener and has the gentlest touch with needles. I have been to other acupuncturists and many doctors and healers in the past, but Claudia is simply the BEST! She has a beautiful positive and calming energy and is extremely knowledgeable on every health issue. I thank my lucky stars every day that I found her because she has changed my life. read more

Claudia is a truly gifted naturopath and acupuncturist. She has a warm and vibrant personality and comfortable office setting,. Her knowledge of both Chinese and western approaches to health is appreciated and through. She has incredible diagnostics abilities and if you are willing to commit to her treatments and herbal supplements, you will see positive results -- not just in what ails you in the first place but also in other aspects on your life. I personally have benefited from both acupuncture and herbs for menopause symptoms especially as none of the western treatment options were effective. Claudia has been a welcome addition to my overall wellness. read more
