Acupuncture is well known as an effective treatment for many syndromes. Acupuncture treats by removing blocks and regulating the qi flow, as well as tonifying when needed. Qi flows throughout the body in pathways called meridians. These are the lines you may have seen running throughout the body on an acupuncture model or poster.
Two sessions for lower back pain, and I am healed! Can't get much better than that! Sariantra Kali is a very competent professional. She possesses a wonderful ability to really listen, and when I saw her she used a variety of disciplines to address different problems. Her breadth of knowledge was very helpful as I had both physical discomfort (arthritis) and psychological issues (a series of family deaths).

I have seen Dr. Kali for a few months now and the experience has been nothing short of remarkable. After receiving recommendations from multiple people, I decided to give Dr. Kali a try for issues stemming from multiple brain surgeries and physical and emotional trauma. With acupuncture, herbal medicine, and shamanic healing, I have experienced a dramatic reduction in headache frequency and severity.
Dr. Kali is uniquely suited to address the needs of individuals who are struggling with brain injuries and trauma. I have seen many practicioners and few (if any) have truly attempted to address

Went twice, 2 times too many. VERY expensive compared to others and I was left with a painful lump the 2nd time which took 2 months to go away. Absolutely no help what-so-ever. I realize this doesn't work for everyone but it shouldn't injure you further. Also, Money was a very big thing with her. Wanted it first and foremost. I did not have coverage with my insurance (she charges more if you do have it) yet she kept trying to say I did have it and ran my health ins. anyway, treating me like I was lying. I pointed out to her that she's not a preferred provider and therefore my ins

After seeing practitioners in San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Chicago, Denver, and Palm Springs, I haven't found someone so effective and intuitive as Dr. Kali. If I could find a way to work with her after my work in Eugene is complete, I would in a heart beat!
She has an excellent mix of sensitivity, professionalism and the ability to really pin point issues that you may or may not be aware of. Her ethics are also applaud able as her GOAL is to make you better, not to keep you coming back.
Consider her services before spending a lot of time in the Western medicine world, I think you

I have seen Dr Kali many times for acupuncture. Most noticeable: I had a cyst growing under the skin of my lower cheek. My dermatologist scheduled me for surgery to have it excised. This would have left a scar. I asked Dr Kali if she could help and she agreed to try. She said it could take as many as 10 visits. During the first appointment she placed needles around the cyst (not in it.) The cyst was gone the next day after only one brief and painless treatment. I am VERY happy to refer people to Dr Kali and I do! Ironically, my health insurance would have paid for the surgery (megabucks!)but

I have had several appointments with Sariantra. I initially saw her for acupuncture, and later for Shamanic healing. I have always found Sariantra to be extremely compassionate, caring, intuitive, and gentle. Her attentive and accepting presence is very soothing and healing in and of itself, and she is a skilled practitioner. She is the only person I've ever had acupuncture from, but as far as I could tell she did it effectively and gently (considering it involves being stuck with needles!).
When the acupuncture became progressively more painful for me, she encouraged me to listen to myself

Amazing L.Ac!!! I have been to many people for treatments, but Sariantra is one of the most talented energy healers I have experienced. In a very short moment, she was able to zero in on my pathology and address deeper issues that I have not had addressed before. Wow! I will most certainly be returning to her clinic.

First off, they moved to 1695 Jefferson.
Other than needing a few minutes to find the new location, our experience could not have been better. Developing a severe lower back pain while on vacation is a challenge. Finding Ancient Rivers well-reviewed we made an appointment. The treatment by Sariantra was very professional. It was a very inter-active experience, with her asking questions and adjusting her applications depending on the response.
The proof of the matter was that immediately following the single treatment the pressure in my back was much improved and the pain much reduced. Next

I just noticed there are two filtered five-star reviews for Sariantra Kali's practice. I hope mine doesn't get filtered because I'm giving her 5 stars as well, and really can't recommend her highly enough. I have no doubt that she earned the reviews that got filtered.
My prior experience with acupuncture was limited to two previous sessions with two different practitioners. The experience I had with Sariantra was by far the best, and most effective. I was blown away by the change I experienced immediately after the first session. I know they recommend at least six sessions

I highly recommend Sariantra Kali, the acupuncturist at Ancient Rivers. She is very skilled in the placement of needles and has the insight to ask the right questions. I felt much better after the treatment and actually was pain free in certain of the areas that I had complained of. Ancient Rivers is in a very sweet home with a welcoming ambiance and comfortable, heated treatment table. Excellent.
