I've been fortunate enough to be a patient of Dr. Howell's for many years and can't say enough about how comprehensive her approach is. She takes everything into consideration when deciding on the treatment options, and her acupuncture, cupping, and so many other traditional Chinese medicine treatments are effective and well worth my time. I find the pricing to be ridiculously affordable, as well!

In 2006 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Our family doctor recommended that I see an acupuncturist to help me through the cancer treatment that was looming before me. I contacted her long time practitioner who put me in touch with Lori Howell. I had only had acupuncture treatment once before and, being the nervous sort, wasn’t looking forward to having it again. I was honest with Lori about my fears and she helped teach me how to breath and checked on me frequently during the sessions, including using acupuncture to lessen my anxiety.During the several months of chemotherapy treatments, radiation, three surgeries and subsequent recovery, Lori’s skilled treatment and herbs reduced the side effects and pain. Discussing my tolerance of the treatment with my doctor afterwards, she was amazed that at 48 years old, I still had energy to work full time while going through the treatments. I credit Lori’s compassionate care with helping me through one of the most difficult times of my life.Beverly

When my orthopedic surgeon recommended acupuncture as an alternative to surgery for my knee and because I also had back problems, I hesitated. Then I realized by daughter and her husband had been very happy using in Fine Fettle for many years to support their own athletic lives. Dr. Lori Howell is an amazing person. She listens, she analyzes and she recommends plans that are effective. Dr. Howell teaches others to become acupuncturists and it is apparent why she succeeds in teaching as well. Dr. Howell and her staff are effective with the acupuncture treatments and they have recommended very helpful natural products for a variety of problems. I recommend her to everyone I know.

This is by far one of the most attentive, supportive and knowledgeable acupuncture centers I have been to. I have been getting acupuncture for over 15 years and this is hands down the most caring place. The owner Lori Howell spends every moment with you answering all your questions, you are never rushed and always greeted with kindness, respect and love. The knowledge, time and care I receive here is unwavering. The receptionist Eleanor always great you with gentleness and warmth. The other two acupuncturist Jeremy Johnson and Maggie are knowledgeable and lovely. Jeremy Johnson is also a massage therapist who is a master at his craft. Thank you for offering me your support while I have sought care.
