  • I’ve had acupuncture from Rachael for many years and always found her warm and welcoming. She is attentive and a fantastic listener. An Acupuncture treatment is more than just the needles with any practitioner, but I especially felt that with Rachael, who made me feel totally at ease and almost like I’d been wrapped in a warm blanket of therapy! But, her needling technique itself is very gentle, which was essential for me as I’m very sensitive and live with chronic and complex pain. Thank you Rachael for all you’ve done for me over the years! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone.
