Review from Ahzea M.
Evanston, IL

I used to have a lot of headaches!! Especially if I tried eating lightly or didn't eat every few hours! Not good when a person is trying to lose weight.
Bonny treated my headaches with acupuncture a handful of times. These sessions held off the headaches for a matter of time.
Until now!!! -
Now I don't get headaches anymore and I didn't even get one headache during my recent 30 day juice fast!! A miracle!! Thanks to being headache free, I lost 25 pounds!!!
Thank you, Bonny!!
I'll continue referring and also return for massages! -
Review from Jade T.

I suffer from a number of ailments and wanted to try acupuncture as an alternative to medication. While there are some community acupuncture clinics in Chicago, Acupuncture Access is very convenient for Evanston and north Chicago. It is located about two blocks away from the Main Street station on the bottom floor of an apartment complex. The office/clinic is actually has a serene ambience with new age or classical music playing in the background, sunlight shining (not beaming) down the windows, and matching furniture.
I completed several forms inquiring about my health history for the practitioner, Bonny Rhoads, to review. She took time to access my health. After a comprehensive exam and advice, she escorted me back to the main area where I sat on a chair. She then proceeded to insert the needles in several points of my body while closely monitoring my comfort levels. My body was overwhelmed by tingling and numb sensations. She asked me to rest for 45 minutes, but the sensations, particularly on my right hand, were too great. After about 25 minutes, she removed the needles. I felt a bit more energized after the first treatment, but I wasn't sure how effective acupuncture might be. I did sleep better over the next few days. I've been an insomniac by the way.
Bonny called me a few days later inviting me to return for another treatment. I was a little wary, but a second try wouldn't hurt (literally). This time around, I was much more comfortable and Bonny was as hospitable as ever. After the insertions (which felt less painful), she wrapped me in fleece blankets and I almost fell asleep. This session was much more relaxing this time around.
I recommend Acupuncture Access for anyone interested in this traditional Chinese therapy. It's affordable (charges based on sliding scale), the office is quiet and peaceful, and Bonny Rhoads is soft-spoken and very pleasant.
