Acupuncture works. It helped me get back on the skateboard and maintain a high level of activity. If you are in the Pasadena area and looking for an acupuncturist, go se Katarina!

I just wanted to say thanks for the great treatment yesterday. I was able to eat a shrimp burrito for lunch yesterday afternoon, and only had 2 small burps afterwards! My stomach is feeling much better today. Your treatment worked better than the Prilosec!

Before visiting the acupuncture clinic I experienced severe pain in my knee and neck. My doctor told me these were caused in my back. The acupuncture therapist, Katarina,understood this and went to work.After seven visits,there has been gradual reduction in the pain with occasional return of the pain with no severity. I am very pleased with the results and will continue treatment a little longer. It has been a real pleasure to be treated by Katarina Ryan.
