Testimonials

“I came in for an acupuncture treatment for low back pain. During the session Laurie asked me about what happened to my calf. I told her I had been in an accident, damaging the muscle in my calf, and have been limping and in a lot of pain ever since. After receiving her treatment, I was able to go on a hike with 75% less pain, and after the treatments my leg felt softer and the numbness was relieved.”

Laurie was able to inspire me to get back to exercising again and recommended a great place that is a good fit for me. It has helped my back problems, my mental health, and my outlook on life. She is intuitive and inspirational. I felt that she understood me and what my needs were.

C. Johnson, Ojai

“I threw my back out and was totally laid up, I could barely get out of bed without severe pain. Laurie’s treatment of acupuncture and micro-current healing calm my body, mind and muscles, enabling me to move my bones again without pain- Ahh relief. Simply put she’s a lifesaver!”
