What is Traditional Chinese Medicine?

I love Monica, she is a super pro and i have seen her work her magic on not only me, but several of my friends as well.

I have migraines all of my life, and over a period of about 2 months, she was able to reduce and keep the frequency from 2x per week, to once every every 2 months or so. She just recently healed a shoulder issue in one session that i have been taking prednisone for.

A friend of mine just recently visited her for spinal issues. she couldn't sleep, was in regular pain, and was considering spinal surgery. Within a few sessions, Monica has her sleeping and eventually was able to fully remove her pain.

My wife had bad tendonitis in her wrist from holding our first child. she couldn't move her hand and Monica restored her to full pain-free hand movement.

There are a million more stories like this. If you have a medical condition, whatever it may be, it makes perfect sense to see Monica. She is a very skilled acupuncturist and is very friendly and knowledgeable. She is really a star at what she does!!!!

I am so thankful for the wonderful referral to Monica Legatt and Seattle Acupuncture and Massage. After suffering for about a year from eczema around my mouth and painful cracking of the lips, I decided to forgo the traditional prescriptions of cortisone creams. The final straw was when a dermatologist told me to use across-the-counter anti-fungal cream. Monica immediately diagnosed the problem as a hormonal problem and prescribed acupuncture and naturopathic pills. Never have any of the doctors that I saw for my problem raised anything about hormones! Within a couple of weeks, my eczema and cracked lips were normal. Now I go to see Monica for all my ailments - stomach problems, stress, eczema problems on other parts of my body and shoulder and neck problems. Monica has my complete trust to deal with my health issues. I have also taken full advantage of the massage therapy at her office. It's so convenient.

After having intense heel pain from running and hiking for about six months I started receiving acupuncture treatments. I've been an avid runner for 20 years (3-4 runs per week) and found myself unable to run more than once or twice a week due to deep heel pain. I tried acupuncture after reading an article in a national magazine and having several friends tell of successful acupuncture treatments. I found that acupuncture combined with massage greatly eased my pain and has allowed me to start increasing the frequency and length of my runs. I would strongly suggest acupuncture as one way of healing/easing heel or general foot pain.

Monica Legatt has helped my condition immensely! After 7 months of coughing, asthma, and lots of yucky phlegm, 6 weeks of acupuncture and Chinese herbs have virtually eliminated my symptoms. I would recommend Monica to anyone with asthma.

Hi Monica, About 5 months ago I wrote to you about my eczema. Since then I have been doing acupuncture and adjusting my eating habits as you directed. I'm happy to say that my eczema HAS 100% CLEARED UP! Thank you for all of your suggestions.

I went to Monica when we first started trying to conceive. Her treatments were very calming, relaxing, and always made me feel better. Once I became pregnant, I continued to get acupuncture treatments throughout my first trimester to help ease the nausea and promote the positive energy I needed to make it through that fragile time period. I believe my acupuncture treatments helped me both physically and mentally to achieve a happy, healthy pregnancy.

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!

I came to Monica after 6 months of lower leg pain that nobody could figure out what was going on. After knee surgery on my torn meniscus the pain increased to where I couldn’t drive for more than 5 miles. I then was re-diagnosed and found out that I had a pinched nerve in between my hamstrings and after only three treatments with Monica the pain has gone away and I can now drive again. Monica paid very close attention to how I was feeling and was able to relieve my pain: I’m so grateful to her and plan a follow up visit soon.
