Acupuncture in Berkeley

“I highly recommend this day spa. One of the best facials I ever had, and the massage was just what I needed. I appreciate their personal attention and recommending great products just for me. Well done, Kathryn and Jackie! I cannot wait to come back“

“AIMC is a phenomenal organization in helping keep your body healthy and in top form!!“

“I just moved to Oakland and was in search of a new acupuncturist. My previous acupuncturist I had been seeing for 5+ years and I was hopefully I would find someone as good. I have succeeded! John Luna is very thorough and skilled. I have seen much improvement over the past several weeks. I respect his bedside manner and his willingness to pay close attention to my body. 10/10! Wouldn’t think of going anywhere else.“

“Had a great appointment with Deanna — we got right to business and I enjoyed her listening skills and the treatment was smooth. Will return again!“

“I had never received acupuncture treatment prior to my first visit with Dr. Alison Winters, but after several months of treatment I cannot imagine going back! Alison is empathetic, kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. Her ability to focus on my physical and mental needs while providing excellent holistic service is truly remarkable. Ever since my first visit, I've been singing her praises to anybody with ailments that could benefit from Alison's care (so basically everybody I know). If you are on the fence about trying acupuncture or are considering switching to a new provider, go see Dr. A!“

“Quick review update July 2024: Love Ivy's new space in Berkeley and it's even more conveniently located with plenty of parking in a quiet area! It's so great the space has expanded services to include bodywork and workshops ! Definitely book your next massage with Rhea, she is intuitive, attentive, kind and I felt like she really curated our session to meet my body's needs in the exact spots that I didn't even realize I was holding in so much tension.<br>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br>This review is long overdue. I saw Ivy back in 2022 over four months and she was an integral part of my healing. I initially went in to treat my chronic pain in my lower back and an acute knee injury, but I came out of the treatments renewed not only just physically, but also spiritually. Ivy’s holistic approach to healing taught me a wealth of knowledge. It allowed me to see health in a new perspective that my body isn’t just the muscles or ligaments of the pain source, but there’s an underlying energy source that needs to be addressed to. I've really felt the difference in my daily life especially during a difficult time of processing grief. I'm feeling more centered, balanced and present :) I would highly recommend Ivy, the attention and care she puts in cultivating an inviting atmosphere with her kindness is top notch.“

“I highly recommend Teo Potts, LAc. I began working with him less than 6 months into Covid after my excellent, longtime MD-acupuncturist retired and sold him his practice. I interviewed Teo by phone along with others, which was enough to recognize his special qualities of empathy, deep listening, and curiosity for learning with me how best to approach a recent diagnosis I’d received from my Western doctor with Chinese medicine. He’s helped me make a healing addition to my daily diet, added very helpful herbs to my supplements regimen, and deepen my self-care in physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual ways. In the four years since we started working together, I have not once doubted my choice.<br><br>A few months after making this shift for myself, I started bringing my then 93-yo aunt (for whom I was caring during the pandemic) every other week. Her trepidation quickly turned into enthusiastic anticipation, as her sessions offered both some relief from her complex health issues as well as the opportunity to be seen and embraced by Teo’s warmth, wisdom, and care. It was a precious healing connection during a uniquely challenging and disconnected time.<br><br>Teo is a treasure, as I hope you’ll soon discover for yourself!“

“My first time back to BAP since 2019--and my first time at their Solano Ave location! I hurt my lower back on Friday at the gym and knew it needed attention. I'm so grateful BAP has hours on Sunday. Jorge is a wonderful acupuncturist: kind, attentive to my specific issue, and truly tailored the care to bring me relief. I left BAP feeling so much better and will be back again! Totally affordable and I truly appreciate the availability of appointments.“

“Kokko Wellness is a wonderful place. When i have acupuncture, I prefer they follow the treatment with acupuncture as well. Kokko Wellness does that each time. Really helps with the progress of healing. This is based upon my 20 plus years of reaching out to acupuncturists. And the staff is great.“

“Charles listens to my health concerns and addresses them w acupuncture. He's really talented.“

“Dr. Michael's treatments are cutting edge to say the least. He is so humble, and always willing to help. Nestled in Berkley the office is warm and inviting. By far the best acupuncturist I've had the pleasure of knowing.“

“I’ve been to a handful of acupuncturist in the past for neck/back pain and none match up to the care I received from Claudia today. She is a true a master at her craft and extremely gifted. I’ve never felt more taken care of, seen, and held by a practitioner before. She is the most thoughtful, kind, and compassionate person. 18 out of 10 would highly recommend.“

“Nancy is a true healer and over the years I have referred dozens of friends and colleagues who have been equally appreciative“

“Juliana is extremely generous with her time and an all-around lovely human. When you're with her you know that you're in the hands of someone who cares about you and your health and making you feel as good as possible. I always leave feeling relaxed and loose and like I'm ready to take on my week. I also love that Juliana really *hears* me when I tell her about something that doesn't feel right in my body. She trusts my own intuition and that's something I struggle to find in other venues. It feels amazing to have someone listen to you, someone who keeps updated on multiple aspects of your life from week to week, and who is genuinely determined to make your life as healthy and happy as possible.“

“I’ve been a patient of Sean for about 15 years. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient with his extensive knowledge of Chinese medicine. In addition, he has excellent bed side manners. You are in excellent hands at East Bay Acupuncture.“

“Dale has played a big part in healing two sports-related injuries. He's extremely knowledgeable and equally friendly, and I'd recommend him to anyone recovering from pain/injuries.“

“Bronwyn is a truly gifted teacher and healer. She holds an incredible wisdom about the body, mind and spirit. I highly recommend her healing services as well as her Reiki classes. She imparts a lot more than information; you’ll come away with a deep embodied understanding of this modality.“

“I go here for acupuncture. It is a calm quiet space where you can unwind for a while. I don't like needles, but they put them in without me feeling anything.“

“Manzanita is my healing home!! Regular acupuncture with Shoshana has been deeply healing and has helped me stay balanced through Menopause among many other things. The acu, herbs, relaxing music and vibe of the space, and the massage as well~ all heavenly and healing! LOVE!“
