TestimonialsUpper back pain, needle-phobia “Senia is an outstanding acupuncturist. I was terrified of needles before I started seeing her, but her calm, no-pressure approach gave me confidence. She offers a great balance of science and Eastern philosophy that makes it easier for the Western-minded patient to understand her work. I recommend her whole-heartedly!”
Anxiety attacks, depression, sinus infections “Senia is a true gem. I had suffered from yearly anxiety attacks in the fall for 10 years and have tried a variety of antidepressants to combat the panic and depression that seems to engulf me every year as the days grow shorter, but I didn't like the side effects and the slow response time with the medications. Sinus pain was also a constant presence in my life, and I had heard that acupuncture could help.” “The acupuncture and herbs that Senia prescribed helped a great deal with my ailments, and I didn't have a single panic attack last fall, but the best part about Senia is how well she listens and identifies what is troubling me. She has a true talent for picking up on my troubles and finding a natural cure. Going in for acupuncture is now the way I treat myself, I visit Senia periodically just to revitalize my qi and refresh my spirit.”
"I came to Senia because I had taken a series of classes from her on digestion. I was impressed by both her knowledge and enthusiasm about the subject. For many years I have lived a healthy lifestyle with organic foods, low meat, and enjoyed an active lifestyle. Even though I practiced a higher than average healthy & active lifestyle, I continued to experience serious digestion issues. I decided to schedule a private consultation after being resolved that I was tired of living with discomfort and after admitting that I could not fix this by myself. "After just a couple of visits I noticed a significant improvement in my digestion and comfort. Senia has supported me through heartfelt listening, acupuncture, and herbal therapies. My digestion issues have been resolved and I am essentially symptom free. A couple of unexpected bonuses are a clear, non-foggy head and weight loss. I am grateful for Senia's knowledge and support."
"Senia has helped me with so many different problems, but more importantly she's opened my mind to the power of Chinese Medicine and what it can do for my body!"
Depression, anxiety, digestion “Acupuncture has changed my life. I was on antidepressants for many years, thinking I needed them to feel ok. I now know that I have the control to create each day and make it as happy as I choose. It has been inside of me all along, and Senia helped me realize that. I highly recommend this to everyone ~ for any type of problem. Depression, anxiety, stress, digestion, motivation, back pain ... that's just the beginning of my list! I was skeptical at first, but now am so grateful!”
Irritable bowel syndrome, food sensitivity, stomach pain, hot flashes “Before seeing Senia for acupuncture I had a lot of digestion problems. My stomach was very sensitive to many different types of food. I had a lot of hot flashes and uncomfortable stomach pain. I saw Senia about once a week for a couple months, once my symptoms lessened I slowly saw her less. She started me on a couple different herbal formulas that really help too! She really took the time with me to figure out the root of my problem. Several different times she would do extra research and send home helpful tools with me! “Now that my digestion seems to be regulated because of the acupuncture and all of the other helpful information she gave me, I still continue to see her. We are now on a once a month schedule. I really look forward to my once a month appointment her, it is my time! We have also been doing cupping for my upper back pain! I guess all I can say is that I believe in Senia and the help she has given me is real! You should see for yourself!”
Digestion, anxiety, acne, pregnancy and pre-birth “I came to Senia after many years of trying to reach optimum health through alternative medicine. I had never tried acupuncture or Chinese Medicine and I was hopeful that it could help me with my sluggish digestion and subsequent acne, which though other natural remedies had still not improved as much as I would have liked. The first session was very relaxing, comfortable and extremely effective. Senia is so calming, comfortable, and pleasant and I really enjoyed being treated by her. I had results immediately after the first session. My digestion was so much better--things were moving through me, I wasn't getting bloated, and I didn't need to take as many digestive enzymes as I had been taking before. I was thrilled and amazed! “I continued receiving treatment and in addition to helping my digestion, Senia worked on my anxiety and pregnancy-related issues as well. During my treatments, my anxiety was completely gone and I felt so great that I never wanted to have the needles removed! I had an uncomplicated pregnancy and very easy birth after several months of being treated by Senia. I believe that her treatments had a lot to do with my successful pregnancy. Today my anxiety is very low, my face looks great, and my digestion is better than ever, and I have a healthy, happy baby. Thank you, Senia!”
Chronic kidney infections, fatigue, insomnia "Getting acupuncture at Healing InSight has proven to be one of the best decisions I've made in my life! After a car accident left me with a number of issues that western medicine had no solutions for, I decided to look at an alternative route. The results have been amazing! Senia has helped me on so many levels and brought balance back into my system. She eliminated my chronic kidney infections and got me off antibiotics. I have more energy and am sleeping better than I have in years! Thanks Senia!"
Gall bladder surgery recovery, weight loss I visited Senia because I was tired of going from doctor to doctor and not getting any answers about how to make myself healthier after having my gall bladder removed. She put me on Chinese herbs to strengthen my Qi and digestion since my body was traumatized and weak from the surgery. She provided nutritional guidance on foods that would be easy to digest and therefore absorb nutrients and improve my energy. Over time I learned to recognize my own symptoms of illness and fatigue and simply correct them by making small dietary changes. I look forward to my acupuncture sessions to tweak small imbalances in my life such as poor sleeping habits or food cravings. I’ve lost 20 pounds since starting treatment with Senia! I now recognize the cause of my food cravings and can fulfill my body's request for nourishment based on Senia's advice, all the while staying thin, healthy, and energized. --Sam
Stomach pain, eosinophilic esophagitis I had been suffering with a burning and pressure feeling in my stomach and throat for five years before I started seeing Senia for acupuncture and food therapy. I am a nurse and I was desperate after exhausting all my options with traditional Western medicine. I was having what all the doctors told me was reflux-type pain and I had multiple tests, including several upper-GIs and a bunch of bloodwork, all of which came back normal. The medications would help for a little while but then they’d stop working. I was left with this burning, full, pressure feeling in my stomach and throat. I was uncomfortable all the time. Nothing seemed to help. Having three small children at home I was feeling not only the stressors of parenthood but also crabby from not feeling well all the time. After I saw Senia I started to feel a little improvement in my stomach area right away, but even more importantly I had this unexpected benefit of feeling calm and peaceful--just what a busy mother of three needs! Senia is always so positive and has a calm confidence about her that seemed to affect me every visit we had. I have continued to see Senia over the last several months and felt better with each visit. One of my biggest complaints was that this stomach discomfort was keeping me from something that I love, running. Well, I just completed my first marathon last weekend and owe much thanks to Senia. I feel great now. I have a better understanding of my body and of how food affects it. I thought I knew this before but I have a much better understanding now. I still believe in Western medicine but this was such a great experience for me and I will not hesitate to have acupuncture again. It has really helped me return to the life I missed so much. Thank you Senia!!!! --Jennifer
Stress, general wellness and weight loss I originally chose to see Senia with the goals of addressing the effects of great stress on my health, getting healthier overall and losing weight. To be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with her youth, but I found out right away that Senia is an old soul and she has powerful healing intuition. Her demeanor is so caring and gentle that it always puts me at ease. Her health questions were very interesting and she honed in quite accurately on problems with my digestive system and my stress levels. She has thoroughly explained the reasoning for her treatments in regards to Chinese medical thought and they've made so much sense to me. She helped me to realize that there were steps to be taken first in the form of treatments for my digestion, and then I could get on with my main goals. Meanwhile, she has taught me about ways to adjust my diet that will help my digestion and ultimately assist me in losing weight. As to stress, I can't believe how relieving her acupuncture treatments are and the boosts in my energy level that result from them. Senia is the best! I've referred several friends to her without hesitation, one of which I know is as crazy about her as I am! --Marcheta
Tremors, pain, insomnia, heavy legs “Senia has helped me control my benign head & hand tremors with absolutely no medication, relieved post-surgical pain that narcotics couldn’t help, improved my insomnia, and cleared the heaviness in my lower legs that no medical doctor understood. I feel better than I have ever felt in my life! Senia listens and responds with individualized treatment and herbs. She will be my lifelong anchor. I recommend her with the highest commendation!”
“Senia was a classmate of mine at school, studying for our Masters in Oriental Medicine. She is a compassionate healer, a brilliant diagnostician, and someone that I would send close friends and family to for treatment.”
