Thank you for my COVID-times video Acupuncture session. It was so much better than I expected it would be to see you "virtually" instead of in person. I know it would be even better to actually get the needles and your healing touch in person... But I feel MUCH less pain today than I did yesterday. You were very specific in what I should do and walked me through each pressure point. And, the handouts you sent afterwards were very helpful as well. Thank you so much.

I have been getting acupuncture from Homa now since late October and I can't rave enough about her. I started chemo in mid October and it was miserable. After my first treatment I started seeing Homa twice a week and it really helped me recover quicker from each additional chemo. I have continued to receive acupuncture and it also helped considerably through my radiation. She deserves more than 5 stars!!!

I had a cupping session done by Homa and I felt all the pain being lifted off of my body in just one session. I walked to the car as light as a feather.
This was just the cure I needed for my on going shoulder neck pain.
The treatment room was so soothing and relaxing. I didn't want to get up from the table. I can't wait to go back!

I'm so thankful to have found Homa a few months ago! I attended her acu-meditation class which was a deeply relaxing and healing experience. Now I'm enjoying a series of private session and have been getting great results. Overall I feel more balanced physically and emotionally with additional improvements in my sleep quality and a decrease in muscle pain. Her office and the sessions are very peaceful, I really look forward to them!

Homa is truly skilled in her craft! I took an acupuncture- Mediation workshop at her office and it was amazing. I have been doing meditation for years but this was my first time doing it in conjunction with acupuncture. Afterward I felt deeply relaxed for several days. I am definitely going back to see her.
