Injuries Treated

What years of traditional medicine and hormone replacement therapy couldn't help (hot flashes & night sweats), Monica and acupuncture improved literally overnight. My life-long insomnia and sleep problem has been eliminated in only a couple of months. I have an improved quality of life both physically, and emotionally. Monica is a physician and a therapist rolled into one.

I suffered a rotator cuff impingement, and physical therapy wasn't helping -- in fact, it seemed to make it worse. I decided to try acupuncture, and the results were really surprising. After 3 treatments, I recovered movement in my shoulder, and the pain greatly decreased. Six treatments later, my shoulder feels fantastic, and it functions normally again. It's been a great way to heal and recover.

I came through Seattle with the national tour of "Wicked" and immediately had a reaction to the climate change, developing bronchitis and acid reflux, which I have never suffered as a singer before. After going to more than one traditional ENTs and getting all kinds of prescription medication that actually made me feel worse, I turned to Monica, hoping that she could help me get back in the show. After just 2 treatments and taking the herbs she gave me, as well as following the diet guidelines she had suggested, I felt so much better, both physically and mentally. She was always there to answer any questions I had and to fit me into her schedule whenever she could. I continued to see Monica until I left Seattle, and every single visit was a calming, healing experience. She has changed my entire opinion of acupuncture and opened my mind to a whole new way of health and wellness. I'm just sad that she doesn't live in New York, where I'm from!

Thanks Monica!

I am having acupuncture and cupping treatment with Monica. She is the best and she has really strong professional skills. I have back pain and also I need stress relief. After the treatments, I feel instantly better, have much more energy and relaxed. I especially love her cupping treatment. It gives me an immediate stress release. She is amazing!!

Thank you very much Monica!

Three years ago my husband and I decided to try and have a baby. I had never been pregnant before and I was very close to turning 30 so I had no idea how long it might take. I was already seeing Monica for other issues so I figured I might as well boost up my fertility while I was at it. Three months later I came home with the news that we were going to have a little baby of our own. Everything went really smoothly throughout my pregnancy until the very end.

Ten days before my due date I found out that my baby was Frank Breech. I was panicked, this was a total shock to us. I called Monica as soon as I left the doctor's office which at the time was very close to closing on a Friday night. Monica explained that because of how far along I was that the chances of turning the baby in time were low but she still saw me and she even did it on her own time. She went way beyond the call of duty to help me out. Unfortunately I went into labor the next day before we could get the baby moved. I had to have a c-section after all but I will never forget what she did for me and how caring she was. She did a great job and now I have a wonderful healthy three year old daughter.
Thank you Monica!

What Monica has done for my physical well-being is nothing short of amazing. All pain and soreness issues I’ve had have been greatly diminished if not fully eradicated by her acupuncture treatments.

In addition to her great skill and knowledge of her craft, Monica's warmth and thoughtfulness go a long way in making any patient feel comfortable and at ease

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.

I went to Monica for gastrointestinal problems which I had experienced for several months. I had relief in the 1st session. I have received several treatments since that 1st visit and I continue to improve. I also had neck pain from a car accident from years ago. She was able to completely remove the pain and stiffness in only a few visits. I highly recommend her for whatever ails you.

When I have been in the early stages of a cold, Monica has treated me and collapsed the cold to be short and mild. It is a great relief to know the misery of a cold, that used to seem inevitable, can -- with Monica's special acupuncture treatments -- be derailed and I can get back to an active life.
