After just one treatment, I had complete relief from pain and bloating. And it has lasted!

“I have stage 4 endometriosis and was in severe pain (plus bloating that made me look 4 months pregnant) daily for years. So much pain that I was taking opioids on almost a daily basis. Plus 4 surgeries over three years to remove endometrial tissue.

After just one treatment, I had complete relief from pain and bloating. And it has lasted!”

Ursa is a true healer!

“Ursa is a true healer! Her presence alone brings peace and attunement, combined with her broad range of skills and knowledge base makes her a remarkable healer. I have learned so much about my body and felt compeltely seen, heard, and understood through the process. Ursa was the first healer who immediately recognized the pattern in my symptoms and conveyed her confidence in the ability of her tools to bring relief. I highly recommend her to anyone, no matter the kind of symptoms you’re dealing with.”

Amazing results!!

“Amazing results!! I was skeptical that acupuncture would work, but during and after the first treatment the bladder discomfort was reduced 75-95% and I started sleeping better. 2 treatments and the main issue resolved. After the 3rd treatment I was more relaxed than I have ever been with massage or other approaches. Ursa is professional, kind, and a wonderful practitioner. She also prescribed herbs for jaw pain following dental work and that continues to improve. I plan to continue!!”

The Problem With Acupuncture

 

As a results-oriented practitioner with an undergraduate degree in molecular biology, I am always looking at the research to see what kinds of treatments and supplements are most effective for specific complaints.

How Does Acupuncture Work?

After I demonstrate my tools and techniques to new patients, the first question they have is understandably, “How does all of this work?”  The easiest explanation is through the lens of Chinese medicine.  Primarily, acupuncture works by encouraging the free flow of qi through the body.  It is believed that a lack of free flow creates stagnation, and in turn,
