Read MorePut your trust in Rama; I did and am feeling all the better for it. Not only has she been addressing a chronic neck pain/headache issue I’ve had for years; but I am also noticing positive changes in my overall wellness. She is skilled, thorough, and kind; and her calm office puts one at ease right away. So glad a friend recommended her to me.
I see Rama for herbs and I am so pleased at how quickly I am seeing results. Rama is thoughtful and attentive, altering her formulas to fit my needs. Highly recommend!
I have been apprehensive of Acupuncture treatment but with relentless pain going down my foot from sciatica, i relented to try something new. Rama was extremely patient and put my fears right away. She was excellent and provided great care for me and within few weeks i have started to feel better. I highly recommend Rama for great care and attention to detail and ability ultimately help patients be pain free !!
As a TCM Practitioner of 17 years I was really impressed with Rama and how effectively she diagnosed me and gave me herbs that really helped me within a short amount of time even with a chronic condition. I received much care and support and even recommend my patients to go see Rama.
For several years, I've struggled daily with chronic pain in my right knee and foot, a lingering reminder of an old sports injury. The constant discomfort made it difficult to enjoy my favorite activities, and I often relied on medications to make it through the day. That was my reality until I met Rama.
In just four sessions, Rama has not only alleviated my pain but has also significantly improved my sleep patterns and stress management. Her approach goes beyond mere physical therapy; it is a comprehensive treatment that addresses pain at its source and promotes overall well-being.
Thanks to Rama's expertise, I no longer need medication and have joyfully returned to hiking and biking—activities I thought I had to give up. Rama provides a professional, caring, and calming atmosphere that makes every session a rejuvenating experience.
I am immensely thankful for Rama's help and would highly recommend her to anyone suffering from chronic pain. Her treatment can truly transform your life.
Thank you, Rama!
Rama is wonderful, she is very knowledgeable and has a gentle approach. She was successful in helping me with a health issue, and I would highly recommend her.

Eastern Medicine in general (Acupuncture, Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine etc.) involves treating the root patterns of disharmony in one’s constitution that is causing the condition being reported by the patient. For example, one person experiencing say a headache may have a different root pattern that is causing that headache versus another person experiencing the same headache. Once the root pattern is diagnosed, a treatment plan is put together based on varied principles of therapy and administered on the patient. It may take more than one visit to address a specific root pattern. Keep in mind that there may be more than one root pattern that may be causing the dis-ease the patient is experiencing and hence continued visits with the Acupuncturist will help optimize and maintain a healthy life.
Most of the time people may experience a slight pinch that quickly goes away. In vast majority of cases there is no noticeable pain. It is mainly the anticipation of a prick than the actual needling that can cause some people distress. Most of the time the treatment happens on a massage table with the patient comfortably lying down. This results in the patient like getting into a restful sleep as the needles are staying for the duration of the treatment (usually 20-30 minutes).
This varies from patient to patient and also depends on the condition being treated. Issues related to pain usually respond quickly to Acupuncture and people can see results after only a few needles are inserted or within a couple of treatments. Other issues that are more systemic in nature – like endocrine, allergy, asthma etc. that are long standing – can take several treatments to resolve or to see progress. Acupuncture, like other eastern medicines, is a time and space medicine where patience and potentially life style changes vastly help in seeing quicker results.
