Shana Lauer Acupuncture

I went to Santa Barbara for a relaxing vacation but my back was killing me. I’d dealt with chronic back pain for years, which was exacerbated by slaving over a computer every day. I knew lots of people who had tried acupuncture, but I was a little skeptical. I wasn’t convinced that it would really help. Boy was I wrong.
I decided to take a chance, and made an appointment with Shana as soon as we got into town. Shana was very caring and patient with me, which was important because I was a little nervous. She really took the time to listen, and to explain everything thoroughly. I felt as though she were tailoring a treatment specifically for me. As she treated me, I started to feel tingly and very relaxed.
When she was done I felt so good, as if I just received a massage or spa treatment, but the pain relief lasted much longer. The one treatment took away my back pain for over three weeks! I was so pleased, I recommended Shana to a friend with severe stress and anxiety, and she was equally impressed with her results.
My only regret is that Shana isn’t located where I live. I would go to her all the time. Shana was professional, incredibly knowledgeable, very friendly, and the results definitely surpassed my expectations.
Thank you Shana!

Over the years, I have seen numerous Acupuncturists. I have really benefitted from my treatments with Shana. She is very gentle, thorough, and is committed to her patients. I am nervous with needles and Shana comforts and reassures me. She has even ordered special needles and will offer rescue remedy to calm me. I am perio-​menopausal and was experiencing irritability and hot flashes. The hot flashes completely disappeared with only 2 treatments. Shana also does a facial rejuvenation acupuncture treatment. My skin felt healthy, energized, and toned. I would highly recommend Shana Lauer for anyone wanting to feel better.

I’ve never felt better! I highly recommend getting a treatment from Shana Lauer acupuncture. The first time I came in was for major stress, caring for my mom with a brain tumor you sometimes forget how badly you need help yourself. Immediately after the treatment I could feel the stress of my mind and body melt away. My mind reached a new level of clarity, the tension in my shoulders was relieved and I felt happy again.
The second time I came I was experiencing seve sciatica lower back pain which was making it difficult to sleep and exercise. During the treatment I was amazed at how quickly the pain was disappearing. For the first time in a very long time, I could walk without pain.
Most recently I saw Shana for smoking cessation support. I wasn’t sure that acupunture could really help me stop smoking but thought I would give it a try. It’s worked so far and I have found that the herbs are especially helpful for calming my intense cravings.
It’s incredible, after only a few treatments I feel so much better.
btw, ask for extension 220 when calling.
