WellStream Acupuncture
I have pursued a creative life of art and music. After graduating from art college, I worked as a graphic designer in the Fashion Industry, and created editorial illustrations for various magazines. I also enjoyed a career as a professional bass player, recording and gigging with numerous LA rock bands, and touring Europe as a multi-instrumentalist in an eclectic art ensemble with Radio Tokyo Studio engineer/producer, Ethan James.

After taking a class at Otis Parson's in Entertainment Advertising Design, I began a successful new career as an Entertainment Art Director, working at Disney and several ad agencies creating movie posters and other movie related advertising. You've probably seen many of the posters I have created over that decade!

I have been seeing Cindy for over a year now and it has truly transformed my life. I initially saw Cindy for support with stress however I quickly realized how beneficial acupuncture was for almost all aspects of my life - including my entire pregnancy. Cindy is so knowledgeable, supportive and is a great resource for helping with a wide range of health issues.

Cindy is incredible, she was very patient in taking the time to listen to the skin issue I was having and work through possibilities before diagnosing my symptoms. Something the multiple western med doctors I saw were unwilling to do. After one treatment from Cindy I saw a huge improvement in my symptoms almost immediately. I am highly impressed with her ability to treat something many doctors just shrugged at. I will be undoubtedly be using Cindy’s services again in the future.

I came to Cindy at the end of my proverbial rope. My GI issues were impacting my life more days than not. My energy levels were low, I was becoming depressed as a result. Western medicine response was to take more medication. Then I found Cindy. After one session, I felt better. After several, the symptoms have gone away. One of the many things I love about her practice is she is very in tune to me as a person- she noticed I was getting a cold and activated my immune system, in addition to my normal GI support. I gave up Botox and replaced it with acupuncture- my family says I am " radiant" which

I saw Cindy Alba for an acupuncture treatment and ended up going to her for several years. She is a colleague of Arno Yap, who I also went to for acupuncture until he retired. Cindy is a brilliant acupuncturist. Her weekly treatments were kind of my lifeline for a difficult physical problem. I am profoundly grateful to Cindy for what she did for me. I only wish that now, I could commute to see her for treatment again. I haven't had anyone better. Thank you Cindy!

Cindy is amazing! I've been dealing with lyme co-infections for years. I came to her with low energy. I travel out of state for work twice monthly. With weekly acupuncture sessions I have been able to handle frequent air travel and add exercising back into my life. Thank you Cindy!

Cindy is awesome! After a terrible dental experience I developed some TMJ problems and reached out to Cindy to help with them. It was my first time doing acupuncture and I wasn't sure what to expect. I felt a good change after the first appointment and now after 5 appointments I am continuing to see my symptoms improve. I highly recommend her.

I feel that Wellstream (Cindy) is one of the most healing and conscientious practitioners in Los Angeles, especially if you would like your treatment in a spa-like environment that is very private. Cindy is a great listener and any time that I have gone to see her, I have felt immediate results. It pains me to see anyone write a negative review about any place of business when they have only visited one time. Everyone has a bad day. Here's a tip: if you don't like a service, talk first to the person who provided it. Give them a chance to rectify your issue. If they don't rectify, or if it is so

Acupuncture has been an integral tool for me in revealing the interconnectedness of the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual causes of disease. By working with Cindy I’ve become more empowered and confident when illness flares up. I’m able to see these discomforts not as obstacles to overcome, but natural features to heal through on the path towards good health. Cindy treats her patients with respect, love, and sincere warmth and is a comfortable and knowledgeable practitioner to trust your concerns with on any level.

I came to Cindy Albon with extreme tightness in my back - my alignment was off, and I felt very uncomfortable. I was tempted to see a chiropractor, but decided to try acupuncture instead. In one session, Cindy's treatment relieved the stress held in my body and my back felt completely relaxed. My alignment returned to its normal state. The release of tension was amazing! I've never felt more relaxed. In prior appointments, Cindy relieved my swollen knee as a result from running. Cindy explains everything that she's doing in full detail, is extremely knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable
