Acupuncture in Ocean

“I’ve been seeing Melissa for close to 10 years! She is a super amazing person and a talented practitioner . She knows the body so well always knows how to fix me. I love coming to the Zen Den center for acupuncture, cupping or whatever my body needs I highly recommend Melissa and the Zen Den Center!“

“I suffered a severe soft tissue leg injury while surfing which apparently caused plantar fasciitis. My podiatrist treated me with anti-inflammatory drugs, prednisone and a cortisone shot and nothing improved the condition. I was limping for three months with no improvement. The podiatrist actually recommended acupuncture. I began treatments with Dr. Balko and after 8 sessions my foot feels just about healed and I can walk normally. I highly recommend Dr. Balko.“

“I was extremely hesitant to go for acupuncture for the pain in my knee from a meniscus tear. Thanks to my daughter and son for encouraging me to do so, for they both have used it with successful turnouts. It's been very helpful to me with the pain in my knee. The overall experience is very relaxing. The minute I walk in the door, I'm relaxed. The needles are not as bad as you may think and they surprisingly are very helpful in releasing stress and pain. I'm glad I decided to go to Zen Den and acupuncturist Ruthann Russo is great. She goes out of her way to make me relax and she is very educated in the field of acupuncture. Don't be hesitant. Go for it. You'll thank yourself and thank Dr. Russo.“
