Heather Block Acupuncture

I was really satisfied with the acupuncture treatment I received from Heather after each session. To be fair I was a virgin but I have had other healing treatments including massages, moss wraps, and I do pilates and yoga to stay limber. I have had several treatments and she has focused on my aging knees and my neck. She works out of her home and has a nice relaxing atmosphere and calming demeanor which aide in the whole process of healing. She also treated me with the «less is more approach» which I believe held my focus and attention on the traumatized regions of my body. Specifically I had a reconstructed knee in 1997 and a bike accident injured my neck a few years later. My main concern however was the other (good) knee, which from years of compensation, has gradually grown stressed and inflamed with tendonitis and stiffness. I guess like most healing treatments it is a gradual process and acupuncture is no different. After this last treatment I have had a dramatic decrease in my tendonitis and combined with my other exercise regimens I have seen an improvement in my neck as well. The knots in my neck have been relieved as have the occasional headaches from tension and/​or riding my bikes.

I have met with Heather twice at the Capitol Hill location for moxibustion and acupuncture. She has been extremely accommodating, flexible, and professional. I have never used either of these services before, but have attempted them recently due to trying to move my baby from a breech position, and to induce labor. She has been warm and answered any questions that I have. I highly recommend her!
