I was referred to Yasmin by a friend last year, when I was suffering from a back injury and just…read moregeneral physical stress and exhaustion that likely cause the back injury in the first place. I'm personally skeptical of much herbal or "alternative" medicine but was happy to discover that Yasmin's approach was refreshingly practical and professional. She treated my injury and my body as a whole and her body work and massage are amazing! She focused on helping me recover completely and trying to improve my health overall. I've since come to her to treat a little case of "travelers gut" that I picked up on vacation, which she treated with affordable herbs and practical biology. Yasmin offers good overall health and wellness services and has flexible hours :) I'd visit her more if she had an office in san francisco but she's still often worth the trip to Oakland.

I'm happy I did though, because her treatments have really helped reduce my migraines, headaches, and occasional body misalignment issues. I have gone from almost daily headaches/migraines to sometimes only 1 every other week. AMAZING. The office and rooms are really nice and relaxing. Just remember to give yourself some extra time to park. :)

How glad am I that Acupuncturist Alyssa Melody has returned as Yin Rituals, in Arcata, California,…read morein Northern California. I have received effective pain management and immune system reinforcement care in a beautiful, peaceful, centralized location on the Arcata Plaza, in downtown Arcata. At Yin Rituals, care can be provided individually or in a community acupuncture setting, which is more traditional care for folks to benefit in the healing environment of others undergoing treatment. Community acupuncture is also a way to bring down the price of acupuncture for more access to care. Alyssa will walk folks through the process for first-timers. Rest assured, confidentiality is still adhered to for community acupuncture and modesty is respected (no undressing necessary--just sleeves and pants rolled-up or arrive in tank-tops and shorts for ease of access). Practitioner Alyssa, LAc, MS, is not only an acupuncturist, but also a Chinese Medicine herbalist with a line of Roots & Bone products that can complement acupuncture care. Here's an article about Roots and Bones, the herbal company: https://www.humboldtmade.com/roots-and-bones. I have tried many local acupuncturists, over the years, but have received the most successful care in Alyssa's gentle, experienced hands and peaceful demeanor. It's time to schedule another wellness appointment on the on-line/app option now available for this regular.

It takes a lot for me to drift off in someones office space. I left feeling completley reborn. Complete nervous system reset. Literally floated out of the office. Highly recommend Yin Rituals and honestly anything Alyssa shares with the world.

I'm so grateful for Tami and her uncanny ability to tune into my body and know exactly where I'm stuck and where the pain points are. She the Mr. Miagi to my Karate Kid and I couldn't be more grateful to resume this important part of my healing practice. Of all the years of body work I've invested in, my time with Tami has been the most productive. I highly recommend her services if you're a Humboldt local or even just visiting, this is time, energy, and money well spent.

Her keen sense of the best methods of getting things into place ( without the excessive use of force other clinics have used) keep me coming back.

Dr. Anna is great! I started going to her about a year ago (maybe longer?) when I was doing a…read moreroller derby training program. I was in pain and under a lot of stress from injuring my wrist and lower back from falling a lot, was in the midst of a masters program and working part time. After seeing Dr. Anna regularly I was able to recover from my derby injuries much faster and she also helped me with my chronic neck tension and lower back pain. She is also very thoughtful, kind and funny. Not to mention extremely thorough and non-judgmental! Also, there are cute dogs in her office and a lovely front desk person to assist with all of your paperwork and appointment needs. They don't accept insurance but do offer discounts for students and folks who do derby (maybe other sports too). I would highly recommend her!

I've had chronic pain in my hip for years. I woke up today and it is gone. No more ibuprofen!! In fact, some knee & shoulder pain I've had for decades is missing too. Wow. Just wow. My initial appointment was about an hour. Her space is clean, welcoming and healing. So conveniently located downtown in the Machine Works building. I highly recommend Sylvia if you've had any chronic or mysterious pain. There is a good chance she can help. She doesn't really have long term clients as she is able to make massive changes with few appointments. We are fortunate to have this incredible solution-based pain reduction therapy in our community!
