I try to see her at least once per month, but life happens, and I can always notice a difference in my body when I haven't been to an appointment in awhile. We've worked on several things: allergies, stress, hormones, general balance, prenatal, postnatal, back pain. A lot can happen in 4 years! :) Her office is very soothing and I always feel calm as soon as I walk in the door. I've done all the billing types (insurance, credit card, cash, check, etc) She has always been willing to work with me. Her hours are really nice for people with busy schedules and she's really easy to communicate with via phone/email.

Be very careful when relying on insurance cost estimates provided by this clinic…read more I sought clarification regarding my expected costs before scheduling additional treatment and made my decisions based on the information communicated to me. I later received unexpected bills totaling $120. What disappointed me most was not the amount itself, but the response afterward. The clinic acknowledged that "false expectations" had been created, yet maintained that nobody had done anything wrong and that the entire financial responsibility remained mine. Future patients should obtain written confirmation of all expected out-of-pocket costs before proceeding with treatment.

We have never had this experience before. Dr. Seki made us feel calm and relax. She made us comfortable even in this stressful situation. After our first visit and those that follow, our insomnia, fatigue, joint pain, and other physical ailments not to mention our mental and emotional health disappeared or were much more manageable. She constantly encouraged us to move forward and this mindset allowed us to feel happy and energetic. With our new outlook, we cannot say enough about Dr. Seki, and what she has done for us. We know that Dr. Seki will make a difference in your life. We encourage everyone to visit her and feel the difference. Rosa & Bob

If you've never has acupuncture before, she will explain how it works and what to expect - it's as important to her as it is to you that the right path for your health and well-being is chosen.

She's the sort of person I would feel equally comfortable sending either my funkiest friends or my mother to. Her practice, Artemesia Healing Arts is one of several in the Northwest Healing Studio, and is convenient to both the highway and the busline as well as all the food goodness to be found in both Wallingford and Fremont.

I highly recommend giving Jessica a try!

Ioana is a phenomenal holistic healer. I was struggling with near-crippling anxiety, menstrual…read morechallenges, and some physical muscle pain from working on a computer all day. While she absolutely provided relief from my physical pain, I cannot express how much her treatments helped with my anxiety and emotional blocks. Ioana is kind, gentle, and holds safe space for whatever healing is necessary for you at that moment. I, wholeheartedly and without hesitation, recommend her to anyone who has an emotional, physical, or spiritual imbalance they want to work on. I consider myself fairly well-versed in eastern medicine as I was once a student of acupuncture and oriental medicine as well as chiropractic. I have been to multiple acupuncturists in the past but I have never experienced a practitioner as skilled as Ioana and I am so incredibly thankful I found her.

But I was still blown away by the results. My pain went away completely after the 3rd session, but that was only part of it. I felt so much energized after each treatment that I will keep coming back only for that part alone. I've also discovered her Sound Baths. I went first to one of the Group Sound Baths (they are so affordable!) and after that I booked a private session. It is an amazing experience and I will continue to treat myself from time to time with one. Ioana is very knowledgable and compassionate; she's always really patient, dedicated and so gentle, evaluating the whole situation and making one step at a time. I'm so happy to have her close!

I cannot say enough good things about the Japanese style acupuncture treatments I've received here…read morefrom Brenda. I had been suffering from chronic pain from a whiplash injury for a year, plus had chronic inflammation and swelling in my face, migraines, joint pain, low energy, and anxiety. In 5 visits from Brenda using Japanese style acupuncture I've noticed remarkable and unprecedented improvement. My face is no longer swollen from inflammation, my neck pain and mobility improved to the point where I'm no longer taking over the counter pain medication every day, my mood and energy levels are higher and more consistent as well. My overall sense of well-being has improved so much. I'd tried Chinese style acupuncture before and noticed some improvement but nothing ever "stuck" or made as big of improvements as I've seen from the handful of Japanese style treatments I've had here. I also like that the Japanese style treatment Brenda does is so gentle. I've almost fallen asleep on the table I was so relaxed! I'd recommend trying Japanese acupuncture to anyone, and I'd specifically recommend Brenda to anyone too! She is so well educated, patient, easy to be around, and really takes the time to help you as an individual.

She's very thorough, caring, compassionate, and really knows what she is doing. She practices Japanese acupuncture which is a lot less painful (not really painful at all, actually) than Chinese acupuncture (which is more prevalent). The atmosphere is very soothing and they have great reading material in their waiting room in case you get there early. I've never had to wait past my appointment time and the examination table is so comfortable that I had to fight to stay awake! I've seen many different practitioners since my car accident in April and this has been the most positive experience so far. I highly recommend Susan. You won't be disappointed!

I recently fractured my ankle and its been six weeks and I am in the final healing stages. I signed up on their website and chose Melissa R. She was caring and really understood and listened to the problems I was having with my body. She noticed how swollen my ankle still was and decided to focus primarily on my ankle but also on weight loss, insomnia and my plantar fasciitis. Her needle placement was perfect and no pain and her methods were very gentle, even on tense areas I have ( like my palm and bottom of my feet ). It's a little intimidating being in a room with other people but I felt relaxed within 5 minutes of my treatment. All of a sudden Melissa was waking me up, and I couldn't believe that I fell asleep as that never happens! I have taken a 30ish min nap each time I have been and that is incredible that I am able to sleep in a situation like that ( for my active mind ). My ankle in 10 days has drastically reduced swelling and I am ready to hit the gym gently again as I am able to fully weight my ankle. I am sleeping better, and through the night and my food cravings are less. We are still working on my Fasciitis but it's pretty extreme and I do feel a mild difference ( which has to do with the shoes I wear, ect ) You pay based on your financial situation from $20-$40 for normal treatment, and self check out when you leave. I love that I can use my FSA card and although they don't accept insurance you can bill your insurance on your own and they will provide you a insurance receipt. I plan to continue to go one to two times a week. I feel relaxed and love the level of care i get and although my last experience was at a teaching hospital I definitely like seeing a expert and the immediate results I noticed is incredible for me. One point is they are a NO FRAGRANCE clinic. So keep in mind when making your appointment as they won't be able to treat you if you emit a fragrance. Even laundry softener can emit strong fragrances in a clinic like that so plan ahead as that is their policy to protect their patients sensitivities.

The first visit brought significant progress, and the time rapidly came when she let me know I no longer needed to see her, unless something changed. In the few times that things have changed she rapidly puts me back on track.
