Robin L Schiesser, LAC

As soon as I met Robin, I knew I’d love her! She is very sweet, down to earth, fun, and yet professional. She was informative and a good listener, and she made me feel really optimistic. I’ve never done acupuncture before, and really didn’t know what exactly to expect, but she was comforting and talked me through the procedure. She let me relax and it all went very smoothly. I can tell she knows what she’s doing and that she’s great, even though I’ve never been to another place. I’m excited for my next couple of treatments and the results that I’m sure will be great. P. S. I had no idea but if you are a student at CU she gives you a $ 10-​off discount for the first session, and every other session is $ 15 less every time!

Robin is an extremely nice, kind-​hearted, and empathetic person. She has years of experience, is extremely professional, and is great at what she does. This was my first acupuncturist, but she made a believer out of me for life.

being asian, i’ve seen a lot of acupuncturists. i’ve been poked in prodded in my back, ears, ankles, all in the name of balancing my yin and yang and moving forward my qi (or life force, or whatever you want to call it, yoda). now i have to say i don’t know anything about the science of acupuncture, but this stuff works if you see the right practitioner, and robin is most definitely one.
i went to see robin after 3 months of chronic insomnia. i have always been an indestructible sleeper, when suddenly, i just stopped being able to sleep. the entire experience was pretty awful, and after having doctors tell me to take sleeping pills, that i was depressed and suffering from panic attacks (all of which i were pretty bogus), i dragged myself, miserable and desperate to robin. i figured that if acupuncture couldn’t do it, then i’d submit to the western mentality of drugging myself and give up trying to let my body fix itself.
well, after the first treatment, i slept soundly for the next 3 nights. i went back a week later, and slept 5 nights in a row. by the time the 3^rd treatment rolled around, i was already sleeping soundly. i’m back to being my normal sleeping monster self, and the anxiety of not ever being able to sleep through the night seems like a distant, vague concern. in addition to my insomnia, robin helped nixed some persistent hives. my metabolism picked up and within 2 treatments, i was having more energy and back to my happy self.
in addition to apparently being a miracle worker, robin is the friendliest and sweetest person. she makes you feel at home the minute you walk in, and is always checking in to make sure you are comfortable. i’m a little reluctant to tell you about her because i’d hate to share someone who is awesome, but great work deserves recognition.
