Sarah Fink, LAc

I came to see Sarah with an upper back/​neck problem that oscillates between chronic and acute. The initial visit was 1.5 hours, and she took the time to get a very detailed background on the issue, previous treatments, etc. Sarah is extremely personable, and seems very open to matching treatment to your personal preferences and staying within your comfort zone. We moved on to the treatment, which entailed both acupuncture and cupping, and she was highly attentive and sought constant feedback to make sure everything was comfortable. Best part: I walked out feeling much better than when I went in. I went from having trouble turning my head to the side to having free movement in both directions. Fantastic experience all around, and I’ll definitely be back.

I think that Sarah is a nice enough person, so 2 stars for her.
Otherwise, I think that acupuncture is a lot of hocus, pocus…
It’s sad that insurance will pay for it, and won’t pay for real therapeutic massage for chronic pain… and there is real medical research to support that massage actually affects circulation, which encourages healing…
The thing that bothered me the most was the constant pushing of the herb supplementing… I was not interested in that and felt like Sarah’s personality went from kind, caring, to distant, less friendly…
