It's going to sound pretty radical to say that my life has changed since I started coming here, but…read moreit has. My relationships are better, my work is better, my body is better, my skin is better, and I feel stronger and more balanced. I daresay I'm even happier. ;-) I'm a Feng Shui Consultant, so I know all about "zen". However, living in a beautiful Feng Shui environment PLUS doing Medical/Exercise Qi Gong & Acupuncture on your body, is like living in a state of perfect balance. Qi Gong is very much like doing Feng Shui on your body. They both are based on the I-Ching, The Five Elements, and many similar precepts. I've been going to Zen for Medical Qi Gong since October, 2011. She is deeply wise beyond her years. I've seen Kaile twice for Acupuncture, and she's wonderful and very caring. I've also seen Yoevita twice for acupuncture, and she has a "hands on" approach (which I like) and she does a bit of shiatsu where necessary. Yoevita also saw me on a rather emergency basis when I had a migraine, which I *totally* appreciated. I've done the Group Qi Gong Exercise in Los Gatos, which is led by Craig and Zen, so I can also vouch for the fact that Craig is very good at what he does. You really can't go wrong with this clinic. It also has very nice Feng Shui. ;-)

They paired me with a practitioner specifically trained in facial acupuncture, which was exactly what I needed. I was hesitant about committing to a package, but I'm glad I did. It's been high value. Seeing the same practitioner weekly has made a noticeable difference, and we've built a great relationship. She's also flexible. If I come in with neck or muscle tension, she adjusts the session to address that. The space is clean and calming, and I often fall asleep during treatments. They also offer cupping and can coordinate massage appointments before acupuncture. Scheduling is seamless and works well with a busy calendar. The intake process was thoughtful too, using an electronic assessment tool to track progress over time. Overall, I get far more value from consistent sessions here than occasional visits elsewhere. Highly recommend!

I went into the session with a lot of questions, worries, and things I had been thinking about, and Angie was able to provide such insightful answers and guidance- such a personal and unique session.

It's kind of amazing to look back and realize how much of an impact that one session has continued to have on my life and how I see certain things. I didn't expect it to stay with me the way it has! Angie has such a calming and comforting energy, and I'm really grateful I had the opportunity to have a session with her.

Through talking with her and the treatment I feel like I gained a better understanding of how I hold stress in my body. While receiving the treatment I had a memory of my father from childhood and a way that he held his body when he was concentrating that my sister and I used to laugh about. I realized, in that moment that I had the exact same stress holding patterns as my father. I think that after this treatment I have had better access to noticing when these neuro pathways are activated and being able to "hit the reset button " which usually involves slowing down and taking some deep breaths. Shanti has an online class called vagas nerve deep dive that I have started that is amazing so far. This class includes exercises that give you access to the parasympathetic nervous system. Michael prescribed some Chinese herbs. after a month of taking them my bloodwork is finally revealing signs of remission allowing me to wean off of other medication. The correlation between starting the the treatments with Michael and Shanti Ma and the drastic improvement in my bloodwork as well as improvement in double vision and eye pain are amazing. modern medicine, does not seem to have a clear understanding of the root causes of auto immune diseases.

Not only is she an endlessly kind, patient, and compassionate human being, but in determining your care plan she is endlessly thoughtful and judicious in her approach. She takes the time to gain a clear understanding of your health history and couples that with her deep knowledge and experience to create a customized treatment plan. Once Shanti sets up a strong foundation for your care plan, she continues to adjust based upon your evolving needs. Each session she starts with an assessment of symptoms and how they have changed since your last session with her. Based on the information you provide she expertly determines a treatment plan for the day - all of which is clearly communicated with you to ensure you are 100% comfortable and aligned. In putting forth a treatment plan, Shanti is able to draw from a number of modalities that she is trained in. I have personally benefited from her arsenal of treatment modalities across acupuncture, Chinese massage, cranial sacral therapy, and herbal supplement recommendations. She truly is the best holistic health care practitioner I have ever come across and what genuinely sets her apart is how deeply she cares for her patients. I have never worked with anyone so vested in my well being and healing and I couldn't tell you how grateful I am to her. She an integral part of my care team and I couldn't recommend her enough. Book her - she is sensational!

He really took the time to understand my issues and talk about the process. What I loved most is that he makes sure to set reasonable expectations. He let me know what he could help with, and what he couldn't. I think a lot of people will just say, oh yeah, I can help with anything, when they really can't. There were some areas where he said he could help provide some minor relief, but that we'd need to work in tandem with other doctors to really get me where I want to be. I'm ok with that - I appreciate the straightforward, transparent approach! Top notch group!

I came here over a year ago but wanted to return and try out prenatal acupuncture. Over the phone…read morethey said I could just book online. When I asked who works with pregnant clients they gave me one practitioner's name. When I came in for the appointment I waited longer for the appointment than how long the evaluation appointment was. When I returned for my first treatment it was fine but the needles hurt when they were placed and I had never had that happen before in the last 10 years of getting acupuncture treatment and it happened for a few of the needles, not just one. I did schedule a follow up before I left thinking I'll give it another chance. When I went to schedule before I left they said any practitioner can see prenatal clients (though that was different than what I was told the first time) and scheduled me for the following week. I later decided the pain from the initial treatment visit and seeing different therapists was not for me. When I called to cancel I was then told there was no next appointment for me on the calendar... it worked out but all of this has made me even less likely to come back.

I am a 78-year-old male, retired, with chronic daily (24/7) headaches (NDPH type)…read more The headache began at 10: 30 AM on Dec 5, 2006, along with a temporary left ear hearing loss and a roaring noise in my head. Left ear hearing returned to about 50% and the roaring sound went away by 5 PM of that day, but the headache has remained. Then, the headache pain levels was about a constant 5-6 (with nausea and dizziness) with night time peaks of 8 or 9. Before that date, I had tight muscles. Muscle tightness is due to 1) long-term statin and niacin use, 2) frozen left shoulder (1977 to present (now gone)), and 3) scar tissue from 3-Way by-pass surgery. But, I believe that the muscle tightness is mostly due to long term statin use (a statin side effect for about 20% of individuals taking statins). It has been determined that the muscle tightness is causing the headache. I've seen ENT MDs, Neurologists, and regular MDs and none of their meds have helped much, except for Epidrin and the muscle relaxant; Zanaflex. Tried marijuana, but it made my headache pain level worse. I've tried physical therapy, Trigger Point Massage, upper cervical Chiropractor, Sport Med. MD, Cranial Facial Pain Dentist, Myofascial release (John Barnes), Bowen Therapy, acupuncture (saw 6 acupuncturists), chiropractors (saw 5 chiropractors), and an Osteopath, who specialized in skeletal-muscular problems. When, the Osteopath left the area, he suggested that I try Cranial Sacral Therapy. Of all the therapies that I tried, Cranial Sacral Therapy treatments have given me the most relief from the chronic daily headache. Jane Colaciccio is able to detect inflammationed muscles, by feeling the heat emanating from the affected area. Something like a thermograph device. I know, its hard to believe, but she does have that ability. Note, prior to seeing Jane, if anybody told me that somebody had that ability, I would not have believed them. My headache levels are now about 1 to 2, and sometimes, the headache is even gone. And I no longer experience the nausea or dizziness. UPDATE: In August 2017, Jane was able to overall loosen the upper body facia, so that she was able to work on the exact shoulder blade muscles that were causing the headache. After a few more sessions, the headache was mostly gone. I do, on occasion, get a headache when I am under stress or I sleep in the wrong position. However, to make sure that the headache does not return, I return to Jane to make sure the muscles do not tighten up again. I have a daily stretching routine, that also helps in keeping the muscles relatively loose. So thanks to Jane, both the headache and dizziness are gone!
