Review from Terri S.

After hearing about how wonderful eastern medicine is for years from friends, I finally bit the bullet and went to see Ellee. It was probably the best decision I've ever made! She genuinely cares about how you're doing and does her best to make you feel your best! Yes, the herbs don't taste very good, but with a touch of chocolate syrup you forget what you're drinking and just start feeling 100%. I've never slept better than with taking Ellee's special blend. I'm somewhat fearful of needles, but you don't even feel her putting them in all you feel is the "chi high" you get afterwards. (I literally didn't know if I'd be able to drive home I felt so drunk!). It's amazing! I'd recommend Ellee to anyone! Even if you feel like you're pretty healthy and balance, go once and you'll be addicted!!!

I went to see Ellee a few weeks ago for my first ever acupuncture treatment. I really wasn't sure what to expect, however, Ellee's initial intake was very thorough and she made me feel comfortable right away. She took a holisitc approach to her diganosis and took her time to understand not only my body from head to toe, but emotionally as well. After my first treatment, the next day I immediately noticed how refreshed and balanced I felt. It was a truly wonderful feeling and now I know I will definitely be a repeat customer! Thank you Ellee!
