Testimonials
“From my first appointment with Kiran, as someone new and unsure of the benefits of acupuncture, I knew I was in good hands. I appreciate the calm, assuring, knowledgeable care which Kiran puts into understanding and assessing my individual needs. I can trust that I will experience great results with each treatment.”

“My experience with Kiran and her treatment approach has been amazing. After years of struggling with back pain as well as a few other nagging problems, I decided to give acupuncture a try and it was the best decision I could have ever made. After just a few sessions my pain disappeared and my other ailments started to subside! Aside from how effective the treatment is, what makes Kiran so special is that she really listens to you. After just a few sessions you feel as if you’re talking to a good friend with whom you trust to share your deepest and darkest secrets. Because of this, you leave your sessions feeling not only physically better but emotionally and spiritually lighter as well. I cannot thank Kiran enough for all that she has done for me to date, she is an incredible healer.”

“I have been a client of Kiran’s for about a year and a half. When I first went to her, I was suffering from jaw pain and other symptoms. Kiran took time to get to know me and the health challenges I was facing. After each treatment, I have left feeling both physically and emotionally better. I continue to see Kiran whenever I have new issues to deal with. I have appreciated her professional manner and expertise in applying acupuncture techniques.”
