    Over the years I have gotten treatment for various issues from Nathan and this review is overdue…read more In the last treatment I had eczema on my face which was itchy, uncomfortable and of course visually not pleasing. He gave me an amazing topical cream that cleared it up in 2 days as well as herbs internally to stop it from recurring. It has not recurred since...that was 4 months ago. A year ago I had a bicycle accident and had very bad scrapes on my face and elbow and hands. Nathan gave me a powder that I mixed with water to put on the wounds. It healed the wounds quickly and also kept them from getting infected, without having to deal with bandages and antibiotic creams. And last but not least I was on a course of herbal treatment for the beginnings of arthritis in the middle fingers. I work with my hands and I really did not want it to progress...to my delight the condition went away and never returned....that was about 5 years ago. Nathan is thorough, has a wealth of knowledge, and is very dedicated to his work.

    Nathan Kaehler is a profoundly gifted, knowledgeable, wise, sensitive, caring and intuitive…read morepractitioner of Chinese medicine/herbs and acupuncture. He was recommended to me as "the best" by a trusted somatic practitioner. His work is his passion--he really devotes most of his life to studying plants, herbs and holistic healing. And it is obvious that he cares deeply for his patients. (He also practices what he preaches, which is always nice too.) His psycho-spiritual background and education is invaluable for those whose pain or ailments have roots in trauma. He is also incredibly knowledgably in an array of spiritually- and psychologically-minded information that he freely shares. This can be very valuable to the healing/learning process. In this vein, his intuition is a major plus and has been very right-on. And his words often feel like messages from beyond meant just for me, which carry their own healing and are unlike work with any other practitioner. I love that his personality is easy-going and gentle, not at all pushy or ego-filled. He really takes time with you as well. I also respect that Dr. Kaehler is realistic and honest with you. He doesn't promise miracles, and he doesn't sell you a bill of goods before he gets to know you or your system. His approach is about keeping things in balance, getting to the roots of illness, and doing slow, steady healing (at least for complicated & sensitive cases like me) -- which can be hard, because we're impatient to heal, but I think he has the right idea. As for results, I wouldn't judge based on me, as I am an extreme case with deep-set chronic illnesses and major trauma history. But, I am in a better place now, and I have had some significant gains. It all came very slow and steady. In the least, this is the first practitioner who hasn't pushed any of my various conditions out of whack, which often happened with prior doctors/acupuncturists who'd help one thing but make another worse. He has also been successful at giving me acupuncture attuned to what my body can handle, whereas other acupuncturists would do a too-strong treatment, or help one thing but throw another out of whack. I don't exaggerate to say that I am blessed to have him as my doctor, and I am a better person for knowing him.

    I received my second reiki session from Lepeng a few days ago (in person), and to say that it was…read moretransformational would be an understatement. I am working with Lepeng on removing old energetic blocks (especially those around receiving money), and two days after my session with Lepeng, I signed up a new client in one of my programs (after the first reiki session, I signed up a new client 3 days later). It just keeps getting better and better after each session. I feel at peace now that I have the support of someone like Lepeng in my life and I am confident that I am going to remove and transcend all my old blocks with her help. The sessions in and of themselves are absolutely divine. You enter a blissful room with calming aromatherapy scents and relaxing music. Lepeng's method is non invasive yet powerful. She is super gentle and confident. You just feel held by her magic throughout. I can't wait for my next session with Lepeng!

    Lepeng came recommended by local Ojai residents for her Reiki healing. As a result, I sought her…read moreout as I was compelled to get my Reiki attunement 1. Eventually, I went back to her to receive my Reiki attunement 2. As a result, I was also able to receive Reiki from Lepeng through my training. In addition, I attended a soundbath/Qigong evening with Lepeng and Austin. Overall, I feel strongly that Lepeng is the real thing and I feel privileged to have learned Reiki thru her. The soundbath/Qigong/Reiki evening was likely the best experience and I felt my energy finally being unblocked and swirling all throughout my body. And I wish I had more time in Ojai with her to receive more Reiki. I would 100% recommend.
