Emily is a WONDERFUL practitioner!…read more A few years ago, her practice was recommended to me after coming down with Long COVID. While I didn't know much about acupuncture, Emily was kind enough to go very slowly and answer ALL my questions along the way. Since I've been with her, she's been able to ease my Long COVID symptoms (along with other treatments), decrease my endometriosis symptoms, and improve my circulation, which helped my POTS issues. Today, I'm doing much better thanks to her help. Also, in these last six months, she's added acupuncture for anti-aging. I've started acupuncture for the face, and it's already showing results: more vibrance and decreased forehead lines. I'm happy with the results so far, and I'm curious how the next year will go using these natural methods. I recommend entirely Emily for her acupuncture care.

She is…read moreso thoughtful in her bedside manner, her treatments are so healing and she always addresses my concerns. I am most impressed that she is always studying and continuing her education. She has not only completed her training at Five Branches (the best!) but she also has TCM ophthalmology training and has helped one of our family members heal from a torn retina (even confirmed with tests from the eye doctor.) Our entire family sees Emily and I have such a deep trust in her and her healing philosophy. TCM takes time and healing is a process. If you are looking to truly heal from the root issue, Emily is your doctor. We are so grateful she cares for our entire family.

She is an extremely accomplished acupuncturist/doctor who uses the latest technology of Eastern and Western Medicine in healing patients.

My complaints are as follows: 1. During my treatment one or both of them entered and exited the treatment room fifteen times. I counted. Which means I wasn't relaxing. 2. How insurance was to be billed/how reimbursement would be requested was confusing and I was uncomfortable with the explanation.

The acupunture I received ended up being very different then I anticipated, the session left me feeling incredibly relaxed, I even took a couple cat naps while my Chi moved.

If you want to feel grounded I would highly recommend seeing Mia.

Otherwise, she's on to the next patient - 4/hour it seems. If you ring the doorbell she gives you while you're on the table, her assistant comes. You have to ask about diet suggestions and herbs. Sometimes, we have asked about them, and then the herbs aren't ready when I come out. She doesn't offer me cupping anymore, even though in the past that's been really helpful at other places. I'm thinking about not going back. I feel like she's not sure what to do with my health problems. I'm not getting better. I feel relaxed when I leave her office and always have a nice little nap on the table, but overall, my symptoms aren't improving. Other acupuncturists I went to would get me in and help me out if I had a migraine, but she doesn't offer this. It takes awhile to get ahold of her if call in. Mostly, you have to book when you are there.

I give Many Lives my highest recommendation!! I've seen Beth for acupuncture and Gladys for…read morebodywork and both are FANTASTIC! I first started seeing Beth after an acupuncturist in SF recommended her for prenatal care. I wanted to harmonize and balance my system during pregnancy and also receive treatment for some pain I was having. Beth took time to get to know me as a whole person and did a very thorough intake, which was greatly appreciated. For the actual acupuncture sessions, she uses helpful bolsters to help me feel really comfortable. I enjoy the relaxing music and also appreciate that she is so attentive to details like offering me an eyeshade and closing the blinds. She uses electroacupuncture when appropriate, which I appreciate since not everyone does this, and based on what I know, this can potentiate certain effects. I saw Beth several times while pregnant, and especially in the final weeks before my due date. I hadn't gone into labor when my due date rolled around, and I saw Beth every 2-3 days in the final week to try to get things going. :) It worked and I started feeling more contractions while there and went into labor the next morning! I also saw Beth postpartum, and she really helped in my recovery. Beth has such a healing presence, and I feel so cared for by her! Regarding massages with Gladys, she's AMAZING! I've received many massages over the years (and attended massage school in a past life!), and Gladys is definitely one of the best! She has the perfect blend of firm yet sensitive pressure. She is very attuned to all aspects of the experience, and I feel incredibly healed each time I see her. I also like the mix of body work through the sheet (without oil) and with oil on the skin directly. I feel transported into a very relaxing liminal space with each massage. She is also very caring and kind! I've also had contact with Anne who works at the front desk, and she is awesome!! She is so personable, professional, kind, and informative. She was the first person I spoke with and she provided me with a wealth of information right off the bat and made the scheduling process very easy. She is also incredibly responsive and always very helpful over the phone and by email. I always love when I get to see her in the office. I've also had a few interactions with Divina, and she's fantastic as well! She seems incredibly caring, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. My mom's been seeing her for quite some time and greatly values her care. In summary, I can't say enough good things about Many Lives and I give them my highest recommendation! And as a health care professional, I would also be very happy to recommend any of my patients to this practice. Thanks, Many Lives! PS Their scheduling site/app is super user friendly, and I love the convenience of being able to schedule my appts with such ease.

This review is for Luo Ah Yi. She was a great postpartum nanny for our family during the first…read moremonth after our daughter was born. She made a huge difference during a very busy time. She took full responsibility for our newborn overnight so we could rest, and she also cooked three meals a day for our family. Everything was delicious, varied, took our input into account. Beyond her work ethic, she is warm, kind, and wonderful with children. She was gentle and loving with our newborn and built a sweet bond with our 5-year-old. She was also flexible, easy to work with, and quickly felt like part of our family. We highly recommend her to any chinese-speaking family looking for a postpartum nanny.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Zhang A Yi during the first 3 months of our journey with our…read morenewborn. Her experience, attentiveness, and proactiveness in taking care of not only everything for the baby but also our home made such a big difference during this crazy time for us. Zhang A Yi is incredibly knowledgeable about newborn care and immediately stepped in to help the moment she arrived, handling everything from feeding and bathing, to soothing him and putting him to bed. Given we're first time parents, she was also very helpful in decoding our son's crying/fussiness for us and provided great tips for taking care of him. In those first few weeks when we were still adjusting, she would oftentimes even cut her afternoon break short to help out, despite us insisting that she rest. It was honestly surprising to us just how quickly we became comfortable with Zhang A Yi and entrusted her with our son's care. She really treated our baby as if he were her own and it was very reassuring to see just how much she genuinely cared about him (and how much he enjoyed being with her as well). There was no shortage of smiles and cooing when Zhang A Yi was practicing tummy time with him or entertaining him with all his toys. In addition to Zhang A Yi being very attentive to our baby, she was also incredibly observant when it came to the day-to-day. She'd proactively clean any dishes that we left out, and on the occasions that we'd take our baby out with us to meet up with friends, we'd come back to a very clean and organized home (even though Zhang A Yi was not at all required to help with this). And as the cherry on top to all this - she's also a fantastic cook. You'd think that over the course of 3 months we'd have gotten through her entire repertoire of dishes, but she continued to surprise us with something new. Mealtime was definitely something we looked forward to every day. We've really enjoyed having Zhang A Yi as part of the family and would highly recommend her to anyone who's looking for a dedicated and warm-hearted nanny to help with taking care of their newborn.
