What People Have To Say About Heather
“
I’ve always enjoyed getting acupuncture from Heather. She really takes the time to listen to me and understand what is going on. She puts a lot of thought and care into her treatment plans. I always get good results and I feel more relaxed and much better for days after a treatment. I have been to quite a few Acupuncturists over the years and Heather is by far the best one I have ever experienced. I highly recommend her!

“
I love Heather!!! She is so good at her work as an acupuncturist and has such a warm, empathetic and non-judgmental way about her that makes me feel comfortable opening up and being vulnerable. She listens intently, is very knowledgeable, and has that problem-solver mentality which I appreciated because I came in not knowing what exactly was going on with me. She helped me so much!

“
It is always wonderful to work with Heather. I received weekly acupuncture treatments from her for about three months and I always left feeling more energized, more refreshed, and more relaxed. She has a great bedside manner and I always felt very comfortable sharing with her my personal health concerns. I will definitely continue to see her and get treatments from her in the future. I highly recommend Heather for anyone who is seeking out a great acupuncturist.

“
Heather is a gifted and intuitive acupuncturist and healer. For many years I suffered from a chronic nerve condition causing severe neck pain, which began to see great improvement after starting to see her. She also treated me for a recurring and painful arm injury, which greatly improved following treatment. I’m so glad I could work with Heather. Her treatments are effective and relaxing, and I highly recommend her acupuncture practice.
