What Patients Say
-
“Dawna has helped me with everything from garden variety stress to bizarre ailments that defied reason. Without a doubt, she's the best acupuncturist I know… Try going to her when you have a headache. I did so last week and after placing only one needle, it was gone.”
ANNA S., YELP
-
“This was my first time trying acupuncture and it won't be the last. I have a neck injury from a car accident and Dawna did more for me in 1 visit than my physical therapist had done in a few weeks.”
KELLY B., YELP
-
“Dawna Ara has given me my life back! … Dawna discovered that my hormones were way out of balance. Within a month of starting treatment I began to feel better. Now, after three months I have so much energy… and I feel like my old self again.”
