I was a patient of Candise's for a brief period, but it was memorable in the best way. She was equal parts warm, knowledgable, professional, and skilled. My needs and complex health picture were well within her wheelhouse. I highly recommend her!
Candise is wonderful! I’ve been working with her as I’ve been moving into a new phase of life :) with some challenging health changes. I had been experiencing persistent back discomfort and related symptoms that were impacting my day-to-day well-being. Her acupuncture treatment really hit the spot and eased a lot of tension. Through her thoughtful treatments, she’s helped me find real relief and ease. She is incredibly thorough, kind, and comprehensive in her approach. Each session feels tailored to what my body needs in the moment, and she always takes time to explain what she’s doing and why. I deeply appreciate her ability to combine technical expertise with genuine care and attentiveness. Beyond the treatments themselves, Candise creates such a warm and supportive environment. She listens closely, is easy to talk to, and makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the process. I highly recommend her to anyone navigating symptoms that are affecting their quality of life and looking for compassionate, effective support.
I started acupuncture with Candise during a slowed and stalling recovery from a long-time, recurring injury. From day one, she took an exhaustively thorough approach to identify interrelated factors for pain, biomechanics, and lifestyle. She then used that thorough analysis to inform her approach to palpation and needling, while always being receptive to feedback and iterative when necessary. After only a few sessions, I was immediately experiencing explosive gains in my recovery. And after seeing Candise regularly for several weeks, I can say confidently that she's been an integral part of my recovery. I'm very thankful to her for what she's given me and strongly recommend her to anyone who thinks acupuncture could help them.
Candise is an exceptional acupuncturist. She takes great care in her intake process — not just during the first session, but at every visit. Each time I see her, she thoughtfully assesses what needs to happen through conversation, gentle inquiry, and close attention to changes in my body. Her treatments often include a combination of needlework, massage, herbal formulas, and general insight based on how my week has been, from muscular tension to digestion to overall mental clarity. I’ve worked with several acupuncturists and physical therapists over the years, and her approach is by far the most comprehensive and effective I’ve experienced!
Candise is absolutely incredible and amazing ! I’ve dealt with tightness and tension in my muscles for years now, so much so that I would say my muscles don’t have knots and ropes - they *are* knots and ropes. I had initially reached out to her when I started feeling pain in the area that wasn’t going away with my usual at-home remedies, and I noticed immediate relief after the first treatment. After the next few treatments, the pain was pretty much unnoticeable and as an added bonus, my daily headaches also went away ! Candise is also the only acupuncturist I have gone to where all the needles have “hit the spot” and energetically feel like they are working. Her needling technique is gentle but present and active, which mirrors her calm and compassionate demeanor. She holds a truly safe and inviting healing space where I (and my body) feel heard and listened to. Candise is also brilliant at finding areas of tension that I didn’t even realize were there, whether it is in my physical body or very gently and non-judgmentally bringing attention to my sometimes less-than-helpful thought processes. I have found more balance in my life after starting treatments with her, and I can’t express how grateful I am for the healing journey she is currently guiding me through. Working with Candise, even in the short amount of time I have, has been nothing short of transformative. She is truly committed to providing you with exceptional care and I wholeheartedly recommend Candise to anyone seeking genuine healing and a holistic approach to health and wellness.
