"I thank Kristi for helping me through a difficult time. The treatments she gave me helped a great deal in managing my pain from interstitial cystitis. It felt good to have support from such a sympathetic and knowledgeable person during those months, and I'm amazed at my recovery. The combined intelligence, mindfulness and compassion Kristi has are rare to find in one person." - Beth S.
"Acupuncture has allowed me to feel truly healthy and stay that way for the first time in years! Kristi relieved my sinus symptoms when no one else could and has developed a holistic treatment plan that keeps me feeling great. She's taught me so much and made it a priority to work with my lifestyle and budget. I can't thank Kristi enough." - Amy B.
"I was in an accident 5 years ago, ending up with a pinched sciatic nerve, later also resulting in bursitis in one hip. My regular doctor gave me pain pills and anti-inflammatories, which did not help. He then sent me to a specialist who added cortisone shots and grueling physical therapy that lasted for months, ending in very little progress. The fifth chiropractor I went to did help me, but he practices in Boise, which isn’t convenient. He would readjust me, but it wouldn't take much to 'pop' out again without continual treatment to change the muscle tone. I hurt no matter what I did, be it sitting, walking, or laying sleepless in bed. Then a friend of mine started seeing an acupuncturist with positive results. I called my doctor to see if he could recommend one in my neighborhood and he gave me Kristi's name. Unfortunately my insurance does not cover acupuncture, but my doctor told me she was worth every penny out of my own pocket, so I made an appointment. After the second visit I was seeing major improvements, so I continued going. After only one month, I was pain free for the first time in years. I had forgotten how good it felt to be able to do things again! She has also helped me with migraine headaches and acid reflux, which I thought I'd have to live with forever as well. She not only makes me feel good with my now once a month treatments, but I also like her sweet, caring and friendly personality. I have recommended her to many people and will continue to do so. She has basically given me my life back and I can't thank her enough!” - Connie Anderson
I have felt a renewed sense of hope that I will one day be able to return to my active self. After seven years of feeling like I was slowly getting worse, with Kristi's help I am slowly getting better. And, I appreciate Kristi's holistic approach and her willingness to research my symptoms when she doesn't have a ready answer." - Chris Leonard
"Kristi follows a truly holistic approach in her treatment. She is incredibly compassionate and personal yet never lacks thoroughness in her research and preparation. She always went the extra mile, providing me with lots of materials and different treatment options.” - Urs Koenig, Ph.D., MBA; Owner, Redpoint Coaching
“Having never been to an acupuncturist before, I was hesitant and wary prior to my first meeting with Kristi. Almost immediately upon meeting her, I was put at ease not only by her professionalism and knowledge, but also the passion she exhibited for the world of Chinese medicine. Her words showed the breadth of her knowledge, and her actions exuded confidence and approachability. With that comfort level established, we immediately began a course of treatment addressing my ongoing digestive issue. This course of treatment involved acupuncture, as well as a Chinese herbal tea remedy. Within a very short amount of time, this issue that had been plaguing me for several years seemed to come under control. I cannot truly express the positive impact this change has made in my day-to-day life. I am extremely thankful to Kristi and would highly recommend her services.” - Neil V.
“Kristi, I just wanted to report that my back feels fine—that, after one treatment I no longer have the backaches I had before. Thanks for the work you did.” - G.R.
“I came to Kristi with a variety of health problems, including asthma, menstrual issues, digestive issues, and joint pain. My treatment included acupuncture and Chinese herbal pills and teas. I have a very sensitive system, and Kristi did an excellent job selecting herbs that were gentle and not irritating, and that accommodated the pharmaceutical medications I take. My health has continued to improve over the half a year or so I have worked with Kristi. I'm very thankful for Kristi's support and for her treatments!” - M.M.
“I feel grateful to have met and worked with Kristi both on back pain and in preparing my body for pregnancy. In both cases, I enjoyed feeling that I was taking the time to do something positive for my health and well-being. During the time we worked together, my back pain improved and I am now five months pregnant. I was also going through an emotional time following the death of my father and Kristi's sensitivity and care for mind, heart, and body were incredibly helpful. Kristi effortlessly blends compassion and professionalism. I felt that I was in good hands and really enjoyed the collaborative process of working with her. I recommend Kristi's services without reservation.” - Erin B.
