At my first acupuncture visit I explained to Jipala Reicher-Kagan L.Ac the chronic pain that I had in both shoulders and in the left side of my neck. She assured me that in the first visit 50% of the pain in the shoulders would be gone, by the second visit the other 50% would be gone and the neck would probably take another visit. She was exactly right. For the first time in 20 years I am free from pain and I have full movement of my shoulders and neck. This to me was nothing short of a miracle. - Mary
I have been to acupuncturists in the past, even some Chinese doctors who are renowned in China as great doctors and teachers of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Jipala’s method and treatment style far surpass my prior experiences with acupuncture. The Five Element approach was new to me and I found it to be powerful and effective in treating underlying imbalances that cause more superficial problems. Jipala is gentle and compassionate and receptive as a practitioner. She checks in with you. She checks your pulse throughout the treatment. It is never a one size treatment. It is always catered to what you need right now yet the treatment has an overall direction that is always being addressed. I always feel safe and at ease and completely taken care of. - Maya
Receiving acupuncture from Jipala helped so much. I had a lot of upper back and shoulder pain on one side of my body for over a year. I first went to a medical doctor who specialized in physical therapy; he did acupuncture as well, but his approach just wasn't right for me. Jipala looked at and treated me as a whole person; I felt as if I was being healed from the inside out. I felt very safe and taken care of during her sessions. After a series of sessions my back and shoulder pain is gone. - Maria
