I came to Andrea at the beginning of the year with some long-standing back pain and digestive disorder issues. She did a through intake and talked to me at length to get a better understanding of my concerns taking into account not just physical body, but the emotional and mental states as well. When I received the acupuncture treatments for the first time she calmly explained each step in the process and my nerves were put at ease. She has a smooth, gentle and precise manner and a wonderful healing space where she provides her therapy. She’s a professional healer who takes time to really listen and is intentional about the treatment she provides. I can say that after three months my back pain is under control, almost gone and my gut is feeling more balanced. I’ve gained a vitality that I didn’t have before my treatments with Andrea.
