I've seen Katie both for herbs and for reiki and can't say enough good things about her. I've had…read moresome experience w/ herbs before so I went into it with a small amount of knowledge but for reiki was a total virgin. Katie spent over an hour for my first consult getting a super detailed history and she even followed up afterward by researching the meds I am currently taking to prevent a possible interaction w/ herbs. Her tinctures and teas are super affordable and I love her teas not just for their help w/ my digestion but they taste great too! I didn't know what to expect w/ reiki so I just trusted Katie to take care of me and she did! The reiki session was super relaxing and at one point I literally felt like all the stress and "tiredness" in my legs and feet were melting away. Do yourself a favor, go see Katie. Her rates are beyond reasonable and she has so much love for what she does that you will literally feel it.

I went to Katie for a chronic cough issue that doctors kept trying to put me on different…read moreantibiotics for. She asked detailed questions about my whole health picture, and then made me a pleasant tasting and inexpensive tincture. My cough started to get better immediately, and went away completely in a month. I highly recommend Katie because she is a wealth of knowledge about the human body, and she really knows her herbs. She is also a very compassionate healer, so the whole experience of going to see her is enjoyable.

I have been working with Jenny Crissman of Integrative Healing for over three years on mitigating…read morethe distructive course of Multiple Sclerosis. With herbs or acupuncture alone she has helped with spaticity, incontenance, and a reduction in stress. Cost is reasonable and Jenny takes insurance. The only downside is her office in Oakland is up a flight of stairs, however when I was not able to come in she made a home visit. I highly recomend Jenny Crissman at Integrative Healing to aide in an integrated western medicine, holistic medicine approach to healing.

After a long search for a good acupuncturist close to home, a friend told me about Jyoti. I was a…read morelittle hesitant at first since she did not have web presence, and I could not find any reviews. But finally I decided to trust the advice and go check out her office in person. What a lucky find! Jyoti is great in what she does - she truly cares about her patients, is personable, very knowledgeable, and her acupuncture is both gentle and very effective. Her office is an oasis of calm, breathing serenity and peace - a great place for a busy mom like me to come rebalance (and even take a great nap while the needles are doing their work!) . She helped me both with stress issues and with pain in my hands. I was also pleased to find that she uses common sense in respect to client privacy (in contrast to some more aggressive providers in our area.) The only downside for some might be that she does not take credit cards - only check or cash. But that is a very minor thing. Overall, highly recommended!

I have been going to Jyoti for 12 years. She has seen me through the lumps and bumps an active…read morelifestyle will give one and most importantly she has been the light at the end of the tunnel for the things that come from being a woman. She never judges, preaches or gets irritated, just keeps on encouraging, suggesting and is there when you need her. Can't do without Western medicine for some things and I am living proof that acupuncture works, along with close friends and family that no longer have aliments from asthma to headaches to fertility. The office is so cozy, calming and Jyoti does everything possible to make you comfortable, heat lamps and packs, blankets, etc. She works and researches to find the "root" of your problem and is an expert herbalist with the remedies she uses along side the acupuncture. I am very grateful and lucky to have found her and don't know what I would do without her to care for me.

I really believe she helped me get pregnant and then maintain a healthy pregnancy despite high risks. I definitely made full use of western medicine, but it was such a privilege to have her care complementing it. The amazing bonus was that I felt so deeply and profoundly relaxed after each session. Anju is knowledgeable, experienced, straightforward, genuine, good-hearted, serious. She took a lot of time with me looking at all aspects of my health, including diet, sleep practices, exercise, and more. She is also an herbalist. I highly recommend her and wish I had the money to see her every week! Anna

She listens carefully to identify the best approach for healing. I first came to Anju after dealing with severe digestion issues that were not being resolved through allopathic medicine.

She was very patient and persistent, and it gave me confidence that I would get better. More recently, she has been helping me with shoulder and lower back pain.

I had known of Dafina for years, (back in the mid-90s) as we attended the same church, but it was…read morenot at Agape that we had our first close one-on-one encounter. I was working in a bookstore in Santa Monica, California. Dafina walked in and immediately began sensing the energy in the bookstore. I had not worked there very long so I did not know the entire goings on behind the scenes. Dafina checked out the owner's energy, observed her, me and the exchange we had. Daphne wasn't in the store very long, maybe 5 minutes. It was as though she was itching to get out of there. In fact, she said something to me to that effect, "I have to get out of here." The owner left, Dafina came up to me and said something to this effect, "The energy is off and scattered in here, you need to burn some sage and clear it. I don't know about the owner, but you are in your right place, you're needed here. You are a true gift and light for this place. Burn the sage and keep yourself grounded." I took note of everything she told me that day. At that time, I hated the smell of sage. But when the customers left that night, I started burning sage like crazy. And... as it turned out I loved the smell of it at that time, but not previously. This was my first personal encounter with Dafina. And let me tell you, she was spot on! spot on! spot on with everything she said about the owner and the energy in the store. My presence in that store generated a great deal of revenue and positive energy that benefited the customers and the owners. It was my first sales and cashiers job and I was in my 30s. I was not a sales person but turned out, I was needed there. That is when I knew I could trust Dafina and later on I sought her out as a healer and acupuncturist. Her trust in her intuition and clairvoyance changed my life, the way I worked in that store and my relationship with the owner. Thank God I paid attention to her words! Dafina is one of God's healing light beings in this 21st Century. When you are in her presence, you will be transformed for the better and elevated in consciousness. Thank you Dafina for walking into my life that day. I am grateful for you. A. Brown DoulaLove'sCreation Huntington Beach, CA

I decided to give Aromatherapy a try and book an hour appointment at Blue tansy. I loved how professional Geraldine was, a bit like a doctor who would have the time the look into your medical history and ask the right questions.

For our second meeting she had a list of recommendations and products that she created especially for me and that she felt I should give a try.
