Pacific Naturopathic

I have seen Elijah Free on and off for the last three years, on an as-​needed basis. I’m an active guy whose body isn’t always structurally happy. Elijah never fails to figure out what’s out of place and coax things back to where they’re supposed to be! His is a unique practice that I have found nowhere else, and over the years I’ve been to a number of chiropractors, massage therapists, physical therapists and osteopaths, as well as a Rolfer. His approach is very gentle and nurturing, and he’s a careful listener. It’s clear that the well-​being of his patients is of paramount concern to him, and that helping people heal is his calling in life.

I went in for 3 weekly sessions with Elijah Free to treat my chronic pain condition (akin to fibromyalgia). Unfortunately, I’m $ 360 poorer and not feeling any different. I was skeptical after seeing little result from the first session, but went two more times because of Elijah’s confidence that I would improve soon and because of my own hope that it would make a difference.
It’s not like massage, where at least the experience itself is relieving; these sessions were emotionally uncomfortable for me, as they required me to undress for bodywork in private areas. This experience would have been worth it if I had improved, but I didn’t.

Dr. Wang has really helped me understand treatment options when western doctors had a «wait and see» plan. Knowing that she cares and knows about pro-​active care is providing real peace of mind. Instead of stressing out the next 6 months and just waiting and hoping nothing developed, I now can focus on treatments that reconnect my mind to the body and healing process. FYI, I never really bought into this kind of medicine but have completely changed my view thanks to Dr. Wang!

Dr. Corrine Wang is very knowledgeable in nutrition and supplements and she is really nice. She listens to you and seems genuinely caring. I also received Cranio-​Sacral Work from Dr. Wang. Her touch is gentle and intuitive. I recommend Dr. Wang if you need mind/​body healing.

Corrine Wang is amazing! She is a naturopathic doctor who also does unbelievably great craniosacral work. She is surprisingly very intuitive! There were some issues on the body that I didn’t tell her about and she quickly picked up on it. She even mentioned a list of words that resonated with her while working on me. All the words were appropriate with my body and mind. The treatment itself is very relaxing; Corrine has a healing nurturing touch. I highly recommend Corrine Wang with Pacific Naturopathic.

Was given Elijah Free’s name by several of my patients as the man who can fix my sciatic pain. I had not been able to sleep for weeks and got no relief from physical therapy or a neurologist (just pain pills and muscle relaxants), but he was able to diagnose and treat my pain that first day. I left with soreness but no pain. He is an incredibly compassionate and professional health care provider who continues to work on my back and neck, and has achieved better than factory specs. I have referred several of my patients to him for similar problems, hearing nothing but positive results. He is not a miracle worker but he is the closest that I have found.

I saw Elijah Free at Pacific Naturopathic for pain elimination of a frozen rotator cuff. His gentle, healing touch had a deep, softening effect on my rigid shoulder muscles. I relied so much on his weekly treatments that I often worried he might cancel my next visit because of something unexpected. Over a seven month period, he was always there for me.
Elijah is a therapeutic practitioner of the highest professional caliber. My HMO doctor required me to see a physical therapist every week. I was grateful for his non-​judgmental, supportive attitude and his attempts to compliment his treatments with my PT exercises.
Elijah is a spiritual teacher. Drawing from his own life challenges, he taught me how to do the emotional healing work needed to regain my fortitude and well being.
If you want to feel better, get better and truly learn to heal yourself, Elijah can help you too.

I have diffuse systemic scleroderma and have suffered from joint pain from the condition. One of the best healers I have seen is Elijah Free of Pacific Naturopathic. I have been lucky enough to work with Elijah for over five years and have been astounded at his ability to heal not only on the physical level but the emotional and spiritual as well. As a result of our sessions, I can walk without pain, and could not recommend him more heartily.

There are a couple of practitioners that I’ve had experience with at Pacific Naturopathic. One is Elijah Free. I can’t recommend him more. I’ve never known anyone like him. I had crippling pain in my wrists that I thought was carpal tunnel. For months I couldn’t type or work. In one session, the pain disappeared. I’ve been completely untouched by it for years since. I type 8 hours a day with not the slightest recurrence of pain. I think he has a rare gift for healing pain, and I’ve heard similar stories from many other people.
I’ve also visited Dr. Connie Hernandez several times over the past 15 years. She helped me relieve serious gall bladder pain with supplements, when my western doctor was recommending removal. My gall bladder is fine, thank you, and still happily functioning in my body thanks to her. Dr. Hernandez is very kind, attentive, and smart. I feel in very good hands when I talk with her, and grateful there is someone like her in the Bay Area.

I love this place! I have had the hardest time with doctors in this area, and a friend of mine suggested I try going to a naturopath. Through a google search, I found this place — thank god! I saw both Dr. Shanti and Dr. Connie, and for the first time in my life I am able to sleep peacefully, and my malfunctioning thyroid was treated properly. It did take several sessions to get accurately treated, but since then I have felt a million times better. My only complaint is against our crappy insurance system, which won’t cover naturopathy, so it can get expensive. But my health is more important. I have told several of my friends about this place and will continue to do so.
