“Dr. Rachel’s office is beautiful! She was an expert acupuncturist and the cupping was amazing. I received discount acupuncture with my PT services which is a dream for those who believe in a holistic approach to medicine. My hand pain hasn’t returned and my toe pain/swelling has significantly improved.
The only thing was I went in for PT and didn’t do a full exercise regimen which was disappointing especially given that I paid the full copay for PT. The PT was also kind of stumped at what could be causing my toe problems which wasn’t really helpful.
However, now that I’ve established care I’ll be able to do full days of exercise, with a massage/cupping included which Dr. Rachel.”

The visit was most relaxing and enjoyable and my shoulder feels so much better. There was no soreness. I am excited to continue my plan.

My experience with Rachel and CYPT&A was AMAZING! Rachel is not only super friendly, she is also very detailed oriented. She really takes the time to understand your concerns as a patient and what you hope to achieve with treatment.
An active listener, Rachel also takes the time to clearly explain and communicate her wholistic approach to your personalized treatment plan and is transparent about the adjustments that will come along the way. Part of this plan included the incorporation of PT, where she partnered up with her PT colleague, Jane.
On top of everything else, my experience was very educational! I loved that Rachel (& Jane for PT!) empowered me w/ knowledge to further understand components of TCM and what l need to do in order to achieve my ultimate goal of balance.
I am so happy I was intentional in choosing CYPT&A and Rachel as my provider!!

really helpful! This was my first time but it takes more appointments to really feel results. But even this first session really helped with circulation

Exactly what I needed. Rachel was clear in her communication and explaining TCM and her initial assessment. A massage preceded the acupuncture session followed by physiotherapy. My body was thankful and I’m looking forward to coming back again and again!
Thanks Rachel!
