I'm so grateful to have been connected with Michelle to help relieve some pain i ve had for a long time. My first visit was so informational and thorough, even leaving enough time for a full treatment. Michelles' expertise was aparent throughout but especially when she let me know beforehand how my body might respond to acupuncture

I loved working with Michelle. I felt at ease and well taken care of. The treatment she used was effective and I felt better 3-4 days still after the treatment / session. It was a positive experience.

Michelle is amazing! I have been getting acupuncture treatments for years and she is by far my favorite acupuncturist. In just a few treatments she helped restore pain free range of motion in my neck, shoulder, and elbow!
