Reiki & Energy Healing

Last winter I totally obliterated my knee in a skiing accident. With a torn ACL and badly stretched medial collateral ligament, I couldn't put weight on it. I didn't have proper medical insurance to make surgery an option and I wanted to try a less invasive method to my healing. A friend suggested that I call Monica for an acupuncture treatment. After the first visit I could tell it had helped. After three visits I felt an enormous improvement in the pain relief and mobility. I recommend it!

Symptoms of fatigue and weakness had set in my body from overwork and embodiment of emotional stress. I experienced profound response to my acupuncture treatments and herbs and my health improved drastically.

Monica's compassion and patience toward my condition and her understanding of Chinese medicine restored my energy (chi) and brought about a greater awareness of creating balance between yin and yang in my life. I continue to incorporate all aspects of Chinese medicine as a preventative measure and continue to reap great rewards in terms of my health, mental attitude and emotional well being.

During the one year span in which I sought relief from stress and sinus congestion, Monica provided consistent treatments that effectively addressed my ailments. These were administered in a supportive and diligent manner which enabled me to relax both during, and after, our sessions. Consequently I was able to derive extended benefits from her treatments. Thank you, Monica.

I came to Monica with shoulder and bicep issues, after explaining the sensations I was having she quickly got to work. Not long after nearly all the pain was gone! I have returned for a similar service several times and am glad to report I no longer have shoulder or bicep pain.

I  initially sought treatment from another acupuncturist. After several months of seeing little to no results, I made an appointment with Monica. A co-worker of mine had been seeing Monica for several months and insisted I give her a try. After my first treatment, many of the symptoms associated with the chronic illness I have been coping with since 1988, had subsided. The results continue to date and I have every intention on continuing treatment with Monica. She is a very wise professional that is really a pleasure to work with. I owe my co-worker and Monica a HUGE 'thank you'.

Monica and I have shared an office for the past two years. In working with her both personally and professionally I've found her to be a highly skilled and dedicated practitioner. I've refered several clients that have suffered from chronic migraines with great success. I have also worked in tandem with Monica on several whiplash cases and her treatments have greatly facilitated the success of my own massage work. I've also been treated personnally by Monica and can attest that her work is both excellent and effective!

I found out I was pregnant February 2007. My husband and I were thrilled. Sadly I lost that pregnancy at 15 weeks. We were devastated. After a few months I fell pregnant again but sadly it was an ectopic pregnancy and we had to terminate it. We then tried for about a year without success. Finally 13 months after my last loss I realized I was expecting once again but again I suffered another miscarriage. About this time I learned from a friend with fertility issues that she was able to conceive and carry a full term pregnancy after undergoing acupuncture treatment. So even before I got pregnant for a 4th time I went to see Monica. I am really glad I did. I fell pregnant a lot quicker after I started acupuncture and I had weekly treatments throughout the first trimester. I believe it made all the difference for me. I experienced an uneventful pregnancy for the first time and my son Nicholas was born January 2010!

I had never really thought much about acupuncture until I had my back injury. Physical therapy was going SO slowly that my spirits were quite down. When my friends first suggested acupuncture, I thought, "yeah, right, sure." After a couple more weeks of very little progress with my PT, I decided that maybe I would give it a try. I was still quite trepidatious when I visited Monica for the first time, but her bright personality made it difficult to remain so.

She explained the process in detail, showed me the needles and how they worked (which was a great relief when I saw how small and slender they were), and was just so warm and friendly through the whole process. However, what sold me on the process was the results, 24 hours later. I had noticeable improvement in my mobility and less pain. By my third visit, I was no longer bent over in pain by the end of my work day. At my last visit, I caught myself snoring on the table. I never would have believed I could be that relaxed with needles stuck in me. It is really amazing what Monica do with those little needles and she is such a pleasure to work with that I am a convert to acupuncture. Thanks, Monica!

I recently had a baby and struggled with producing enough milk. I went to see Monica in hopes that acupuncture would be the solution to this most stressful situation. After each acupuncture treatment my breasts were immediately filled with milk. With continued treatment my milk supply has vastly increased and I am not struggling with milk production anymore.

You are the best Monica! Thank You for your continued commitment to patient care.-
