His appointment was scheduled for about 11am. We waited till about 12:45 to see the doctor. My friend was in incredible pain that day, having worked the previous evening. When we finally saw the acupuncturist, he barely examined my friend, taking less than a minute to look at him. My friend had information on previous treatments and diagnosis, including paperwork from several doctors. The acupuncturist suggested he come back a week later! My friend had come to get some relief; when I originally made the appointment, I stressed the urgent need for treatment the day of the appointment. This did not occur. We pleaded with the provider to please give my friend some relief; we were dismissed with very little concern or compassion for his painful situation. It was a bad experience for both of us. I would not recommend this provider to anyone.

My friend has suffered with reoccurring pain in neck and shoulder area. I suggested acupuncture as a different solution. I scheduled an appointment for him and we went about a week later.

The treatments worked brilliantly! I had seen my primary care doctor and a specialist for initial treatment, but they only offered me a cortisone shot that lasted six weeks. Then I saw another acupuncturist who treated me over six sessions, but there was no change in my condition. I finally looked for an acupuncturist with expertise in pain management and found this practice. Unlike my previous acupuncturist, Sydnie knew this condition and what points to target. I felt significantly better within a week of my first treatment, and I had almost no pain after three treatments. I had a few more follow-up treatments, and after six sessions, I am completely pain free (still so six months later). After a year of wrist pain that kept me from many daily activities, I was thrilled to have made a full recovery. I would see Sydnie again in an instant with any other issues that could be treated with acupuncture.

I initially came in for a case of De Quervain's tenosynovitis, which had been bothering me for over a year. I saw Sydnie for her experience in pain management and reduction. She was familiar with the condition and knew exactly what to do. She is very easy to interact with and made me feel at ease.

It has gone great and the acupuncturist has really helped my daughter a lot. She is really good and my daughter goes about every 6 weeks. We saw the acupuncturist with a problem and she really helped her a lot. Now my daughter is just on maintenance. There are three acupuncturists there and the one we see is really nice and helpful.

At different visits, I was treated by Sydnie, Daniel and Jessica, and they were all fantastic in helping me reduce stress and address other issues. They tailored each visit for my specific needs, and I left each visit feeling completely relaxed and refreshed. They run their office very efficiently, and I never had any wait for my appointments. The office is clean, rooms are comfortable, and they will adjust lighting and/or music to make the experience totally pleasant. I can't recommend them highly enough. Wholistic Acupuncture is worth every penny you can spend there!

Jessica asked questions about my health and then gave a treatment including both face up and face down. She also recommends herbs that really help me whenever I feel like I'm coming down with a cold or something. I can bring my own music to play during the session. Jessica has a nurturing manner which is part of the healing experience.

I purchased two sets of 5 sessions plus had a Groupon for one session. I was very pleased with the results. The only negative was that there is a handball court donstairs of the office and the one time I had a session when the courts were in use was very disturbing. The noise level was very high. Otherwise I was pleased with the services.
Description of Work
I had Sydnie several times and Dan once. Both were very professional and I felt responsive to my needs for accupuncture.

I heard about Julia through a friend. Wholistic Acupuncture is very good and they seem to know what they are doing. They have helped with certain problems I have had with my back. I haven't been able to travel, that's why Julia comes to my house. Their bedside manner and communication is very good. I would use them again in the future.

When I called the center for an appointment I was able to talk to the acupuncturist and ask some preliminary questions. The appointment availability was great and i was able to be seen quickly. When I arrived for my appointment I filled out the required paperwork, i could hear noise from the racquetball courts below. When I was taken to the evaluation room and questioned, it seemed that the acupuncturist was judgmental regarding testing that i had previously undergone. I was very apprehensive about acupuncture, but the therapist explained everything that she was doing and eased my anxiety. She was also very open to feedback and changed the plan based on my comfort.During the time of the acupuncture there was soothing music and the room felt "homey", but the sound from the racquetball courts was distracting and I felt that i was alone in the room without a way to alert the therapist if I needed anything.As far as price is concerned, i thought that this location had a reasonable rate, and even offered a bulk discount.Finally regarding effectiveness of treatment....i can't say that I noticed a change in the back pain that I was experiencing but I only went for one treatment (i didn't like the noise level) If this acupuncturist had a different/quieter location I wouldn't have any reservations recommending this place

She does craniofacial stuff which really helped me. Acupuncture treatment is very relaxing and it doesn’t hurt. They will tell you what they are doing and it is ancient. A friend of mine who is a doctor suggested me to try that too. I feel that Sydnie is quite knowledgeable. She is very relaxing and a very funny person. I enjoy her. She will ask questions about diet and things like that. She also has things like Chinese herbs. I don’t fully understand the acupuncture thing, but I did try it before I had my surgeries and it didn’t help as far as my walking went. I used to get very anxious because my legs were not working. So, acupuncture has really helped my nervous system problem. I don’t know if it helped my walking, but it certainly doesn’t hurt anything. She is very nice. She has been very helpful to me and I feel hopeful, which is good. I have adjusted better with my situation now. She is pretty busy because she is not there everyday. She is good about explaining things. Whatever she did for my nervous system was really helpful. It feels terribly relaxing. She can sometimes tell the state of my neck. She will tell you anything you ask her. I haven’t had any problems with the billing as well. My husband is using her services too.
