* Individual results vary. No guarantee of specific results is warranted or implied and your results will depend on many factors (full disclaimer).

Here are the steps of your care with us:

Step ONE: Free Initial Consultation

At your free consultation we will meet to discuss your case, your medical history, medications you’re taking, and – most importantly – YOUR GOALS. We want you to be certain that your treatment protocol is going to meet your needs and that there is a HIGH probability of success for you – BEFORE we move forward to the next step.

Step TWO: Detailed Assessment & Treatment Plan

Once your FREE consultation is complete, and we agree to move forward, your next step is the intake appointment. At this appointment, we will do a detailed assessment of your symptom pattern, medical history, and other factors to determine the root cause of your issue and devise a specific plan of attack.

Your first acupuncture session will be performed at this time along with the necessary therapies to support the treatment, such as cupping, moxibustion, or gua sha. You will be given a treatment plan with exact, easy-to-follow instructions. Your treatment plan will include dietary and lifestyle adjustments as well as key herbal formulas to address the root of YOUR problems.

Step THREE: Active Treatment & Symptom Resolution

You’ll return for weekly visits to ensure close support as you begin to feel the positive effects of the therapy and the strengthening of your body’s natural healing mechanisms. We want to make sure your treatment plan is yielding expected results and will make adjustments as needed.

Step FOUR: Transitional Care as Things Stabilize

Once we see stable improvements, we will begin to reduce the frequency of visits. This usually occurs after about 8-12 visits. Initially you’ll come every other week, then once a month before no longer needing regular treatments.

We’ll be here in case you ever want to come in for a tune-up or to address other concerns.

Of course, MANY of our patients do wish to continue with “ongoing maintenance,” and we are happy to work that out with you, should that be your wish.

Taking Care of Your Friends and Loved Ones

We pride ourselves in the fact that many of our patients are referred to us by other patients or people in the community who have witnessed their friends and loved ones receive life-changing benefits from our work.

We very much look forward to helping YOUR friends, family, and loved ones on THEIR journey to a more joyful, energetic, and purposeful life.

"I can’t say enough about Katrina and her skills as an acupuncturist. I had major scoliosis surgery done 8yrs ago. Since then I have been suffering with daily pain in my SI joint area. I decided to try acupuncture to see if it could help. By my second appointment I was feeling like a different person. I literally had no pain in that area! Although I need to keep up with my treatment I can honestly say that was the first time I didn’t feel pain in years! I highly recommend seeing Katrina. She is a wealth of knowledge regarding Eastern medicine and it’s also an opportunity to relax and recharge in a soothing environment."

"It was about twenty-four hours after my first experience with Acupuncture to combat chronic allergies and rhinitis when noticed I hadn't sneezed in that amount of time.  She said it would help, and she knows what she's talking about and what she's doing!  Thanks, K!"

 

- Ned B.

Personalized Care With Outstanding Results

 

 

"Katrina is a wealth of information and compassion. I first visited her acupuncture studio on a recommendation from a friend. I had never tried acupuncture and cupping before, but a testy elbow problem had been keeping me up at night. More than relieving the pain associated with the elbow, I needed to get a good night’s sleep again! After my first treatment, the pain abated, and mobility and strength improved progressively week after week. I’d say by the third or fourth weekly session the elbow was a non-issue. I continue to go to Katrina at Karma Zen for general wellness. I always leave much calmer and more collected than when I arrive."

 

- Jen M.

"As somewhat of a  "newbie" to the practice I was not sure what to expect from the session(s). I am now months into my scheduled weekly sessions and can feel the positive effects from those. Originally, the minor to worse aches and pains (hips, back, shoulders) were my focus in the treatment plan that Katrina helped me with. Now those  aches are minimizing. What I didn't expect  was how I responded to how acupuncture in the mental side of therapy, a sort of energy and mental shifting treatment. I love  how it helps me handle stress, to relax, motivating me in my exercise regimens and overall, the calming effects it supports and promotes. Katrina is a gifted practioner and is awesome!!Thanks! Mike"
