    Dr. Megan worked magic on me! I had some discomfort in my elbow (most likely Golfer's elbow) that was affecting my ability to do something as easy as wringing out a towel. After her in take, she walked me through her plan of care and talked about each of the places she was putting points. The most exciting part of this appointment was the electro stim she incorporated into the treatment. She made sure I was comfortable before leaving the room & the rest I got a few minutes after she stepped out was amazing- best nap EVER.

    My symptoms are better today. I am grateful for your help :)

    I was a bit of a sceptic when I first came to see Megan. I had had one other acupuncture experience that wasn't the best. But, I had been suffering from a toothache, neck pain and jaw pain that the dental world was blaming on my jaw. I thought otherwise, but had to do something because the pain was so bad. Dr. Berry was so thorough during the intake session and wanted to get a full picture of my health. With all of that information, she was able to come up with a treatment plan for me. Each week, she would review my history and check in on how things were going. She always made sure I was comfortable, and checked in on me during my treatment. By the end of my package, my jaw and neck pain were gone. Left with only the tooth pain, I was able to go back the to the dentist and tell them that the root cause was, in fact, my tooth (no pun intended.) I will definitely return to Megan should I ever need help. She is such a kind, caring, intelligent and knowledgeable practitioner!

    Perfect for first timer! I have scoliosis and therefore a tremendous amount of back pain as I've grown older it has caused my hip to freeze up and stiffen so much so that I have felt pain through my knee into my ankle and foot I have seen my doctor for my shoulder and I see my doctor the same doctor I might underline for my lower back and for my knee Never once has my MD said that these things could all be related because my scoliosis has progressed with my age but more so my muscles have started new patterns of protecting themselves. This pattern of my muscles protecting themselves I did not understand and frankly I don't care -- just get me out of this pain. I am in a constant state of lower back and hip pain for at least the last year it has become difficult to walk and to get up from a seated position I contacted Dr Megan and went to her office for the first time to see her. Prior to this I was only open to massage therapy and what my doctor prescribed to me which was a muscle relaxer that put me right to sleep so I had to take it before bed but often the sleep was so thick I would have a pill hangover the next day making it difficult to keep up with those yoga classes where else prescribed to take and go to work... So when I Went into this beautifully decorated office that felt serene but not they overly dramatic Spa - I felt like I might learn something - so I gave in to the needles and Tiny bits of pulsing electricity and I groaned out loud and Megan said nice things to me and made me feel welcome and safe - is the short of it - but here's what happened: We walked down a long call to a lovely space where she pointed out the table and different things on the table and asked if I'd like to take a seat and explain my history with acupuncture and what brought me here today. So far so good. I told her a little bit and she immediately related to all of my ailments to one place. She asked if I wouldn't mind demonstrating how I move when it hurts and she's zeroed in on the - one place - which was the place The secret place that no one knows because you could never describe to them exactly where it is - the place where you tell the massage therapist where to rub but they always are too left or right... I know Dr Megan found the exact spot because as she tapped needles into me - I started to yell. Not yelling exactly more like low and high "ouch" in a melodic tone of different tunes suck in my head...I had to make noises because I've never experienced anything like this she was tapping on one area and then I would feel some twitch in some other area It's safe to say I was an incredibly vocal patient. We then moved on to the electricity and she was incredibly sweet checking in with me for each level of sensitivity. She left me with a buzzer in my hand and I drifted off to some euphoric space. But on my way to the euphoria I was experiencing electrical shocks down my arms and legs - I could feel as though it was just about to cause me pain and then a muscle or something would let go and the whole time I was saying all sorts of words over and over again until I completely gave into peace. I am so glad that my believe system allows me to believe that no one heard me. I came out the other side of a 15 minute session with NO PAIN! When she left me to get dressed I moved slowly expecting to have to protect all the areas that hurt I was in complete and total disbelief that I wasn't in any pain. There were red circles on my back from a procedure called cupping but I don't know anything about that because I completely zoned out while she explained it - it didn't matter - this person allowed me to be completely in her hands. So when she went on to explain, I had already checked out - but I can tell you that I will do that part again too. The cupping also came with an ounce of discomfort but the Bliss I felt putting my clothes back on and walking out to the Serene waiting room was worth any momentary discomfort to me. I don't believe I've experienced a miracle b
