A friend recommended that I see Bell Tam. I was seeking help for painful periods, PMS, and anxiety;…read moretopics that aren't always easy to talk about, especially with a male practitioner. However, he immediately put me at ease with his calm, respectful approach and clear depth of knowledge. I felt comfortable opening up, which made a big difference in my overall experience. He asked thoughtful, thorough questions and took the time to clearly explain his approach and recommendations. This gave me a lot of confidence in the care I was receiving. Nothing ever felt rushed or impersonal; he was genuinely attentive and invested in my situation. One unique aspect of the experience is the brief massage following the treatment. It's such a relaxing and helpful addition that really enhances each session. I truly felt cared for and supported throughout my visits. His team is also fantastic warm, welcoming, and professional. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, compassionate acupuncturist.

I started coming here in April 2023. I had a whole list of issues going on, namely really painful…read moreand debilitating periods that were irregular. I had been on birth control for years, and when I got off of it, my periods became very painful, to the point of needing to miss school and work. I relied heavily on ibuprofen on days 1 and 2 of the periods. For two years, I thought this was just my new normal. But after coming here once a month for a few months, my periods have completely normalized again. No more pain and now my cycles are regular to a T! I haven't made any other life changes besides coming to see Bell. Their methodology is safe and effective, and in my case, curative. Periods don't have to suck! I'd highly recommend coming here if you are someone struggling with your periods or any other chronic conditions.

Well, I just finished my 10(ish) series with Daphne, and I already miss her! I probably would have…read morekept going for forever, but Daphne was honest enough to tell me that she thought I had reached the full benefit of the rolfing series. (However, she did invite me back for tune-ups in the future, whenever I feel like I need them!). Overall, my body feels much more elongated and looser. I actually gained an inch or two in height, and even my mom would be proud of my posture now. My core is straighter and clothes fit better. My shoulders are even, and my right shoulder (chronic bursitis from playing competitive tennis) feels so much better than it used to. I honestly haven't had any issues with my shoulder, IT band, or headaches for awhile, and I'm attributing it to Daphne's mad skills. I just feel... healthy. I highly recommend rolfing and Daphne to just about everyone. After a few sessions, you will feel great!

This review is based on my one experience for accupuncture only…read more So I had my my first experience with accupuncture yesterday! I had never done it before so have nothing to compare it to but think I can be objective about the service at Cambridge Health which was very good. My accunpuncturist (Marilyn) was friendly and thorough in her questions prior to beginning. Marilyn clearly believes in the medicine of accupuncture and helping people which got through some of my cynicism. She made me feel really comfortable and made sure I didn't have any questions or qualms before starting. I actually don't have any physical issues (knock on the old wood) aside from weak ankles from sports but it turns out that it's best to have accupuncture before you have problems as a preventive health measure. The needles did not hurt (a few stung for a second) and I could actually feel stirrings in my ankles from the needles in my scalp! The appointment lasted about 90 minutes but flew by. I am still not 100% sure about the powers of accupuncture but afterwards I had a feeling of euphoria akin to Peter in Office Space after hypnosis! I also had football practice that night and my previously sore left ankle felt pretty good. I know, it could all be in my head, but I really enjoyed the experience and made a second appointment. They are running a special right now- 50% off your first two treatments if you call before 9/15 so give it a try!

I've been here twice and gotten 2 different services, the 60 mins Asian Body Works (Tuina) with Hot…read moreStones and the 60 mins Foot Reflexology with Asian Body Works. The massage has always been very good and reception is very nice. Both times I have used a Groupon and booked an appointment for the same or next day (once I called because I was close by and they got me in for an appointment 10 mins later). Maybe it's because I go on weekdays, but they seem to have lots of availability. The massage is always very thorough and my body feels excellent after. They tend to use firm pressure -- I don't mind some pain during my massage but you can ask them to be lighter. Language barrier can be an issue so you may want to let reception know before you go in for the massage. The 60 mins Asian Body Works (Tuina) with Hot Stones was full body including scalp and face but not feet and you removed your clothes. The 60 mins Foot Reflexology with Asian Body Works included a foot soak, focused on feet and legs, and you kept your clothes on for the body works massage. I preferred the body works with hot stones from masseuse David, who asked multiple time if the pressure was good and it really felt amazing! If you care more about the foot massage and less about the body, then I would opt for the foot reflexology (the massage I had was fantastic as well). The space is clean, beds are very comfortable, and ambiance is nice. The different massage areas are divided by screens rather individual rooms separated by walls. I don't mind this, but I can see how some would not prefer it. When I went for the foot reflexology, I was in a shared room with a stranger -- this was fine for me because you do not remove your clothes for this service. I found it a little weird initially but did not care during the actual massage; again, I can see how some people may not enjoy this setup. Overall, Nomad offers very high quality massage at a reasonable price point, not overly extravagant. I will definitely go back regularly!
