Seaside Acupuncture

Patient Testimonials

After 18 years as a ballet dancer, my body was paying the price.  I had horrible back pain and was diagnosed with chronic tendonitis that would need daily medication for pain control.  Being a mom of 2 young boys, that's not an option.  My first session with Lisa left me in tears!  It was the the first time in FOUR years that my back didn't hurt!!!  Since then, Lisa has helped me through another pregnancy and other health issues.  She ROCKS!  She's even treated our 6 year old with his sinus issues.  I can not say enough great things about the power of acupuncture with Lisa Dunlevy!  I can't say enough wonderful things about Lisa!!!

After several years of me and my husband trying to get pregnant without success, I made my first appointment with the intent of preparing my body and mind for upcoming treatments at a local fertility center. While the clinic was busily preparing my medical work-up, Lisa provided expert care, not only performing acupuncture but also giving counsel on my diet, exercise routine, sleeping habits, etc. I started to notice results immediately, and even my husband commented on how much more 'in balance' I appeared to be. After only 6 weeks of treatment with Lisa (and only 3 days before our first scheduled fertility procedure) we were delighted to find out that we were pregnant! We are now the proud parents of a healthy, 18 month old boy. Best of all, the lifestyle changes suggested by Lisa were invaluable throughout the challenges of pregnancy and new motherhood. I cannot thank Lisa enough for all she has done for my family and would recommend her without reservation.

I initially made an appointment for facial rejuvenation. However, after my first consultation with Lisa, we decided to work on other health issues first (at this point in my life, I would rather feel happy and well than look like a million dollars!) I have had attacks of Vertigo over the past couple of years and acupuncture has helped me with my balance, increased my energy level and enhanced my overall well-being. Lisa's concern and sensitivity to your health needs are refreshing. We have since concluded my facial rejuvenation sessions, and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to look and feel year's younger without surgery. Acupuncture is something I wish I had discovered years ago! Acupuncture will continue to be a significant part of my health regimen. Thanks, Lisa!

As someone who wants to further integrate my mind, soul, and body, acupuncture has been great for me. Lisa is a kind, gentle, thoughtful practitioner, offering an inviting environment, helpful bodywork, and tools to further integrate my whole self.

I have been receiving acupuncture treatments from Lisa for four months. I have kidney problems and came to Seaside Acupuncture for relief from chronic pain associated with this disease. From the first visit I immediately felt the ease and comfort of being cared for and about. Lisa hears what I tell her about my current needs and skillfully approaches that day's treatment accordingly. Each session leaves me improved and uplifted. Her treatment room feels like a sanctuary, where all is well, each time I'm there, where the chaos of the rest of the world becomes just a vague memory for a while. She has created a healing practice that I know is a precious gift. And I am the lucky recipient.
