Acupuncture Wellness Center, Alison Schaeffer L.Ac, San Diego CA

I went to this place because I was in desperate need. I have never been to an acupuncturist before. I hate needles. I spent the night before in the ER. I had what they think was a punched nerve. Well, the session was uncomfortable - she poked me a few places and did cupping which looks like huge hockey's all over my back. But, THREE HOURS AFTER THE SESSION THE PAIN STOPPED. I have never been so happy to be all bruised up. I feel better!

From the first appointment, I knew that I was in great hands! Alison started treating me about 2 weeks after I was in the hospital for a flare up with my chronic pain. Some days I could barely walk and could not find relief.

The office is in a great location, in addition to easy parking and an elevator if you need it. It's very peaceful and welcoming when you walk in. Each of the treatment rooms are super clean, cozy, and comfortable. Alison's experience is beyond impressive. One really important thing to remember is that you should feel comfortable. Tell her if you need to change positions or if you are in pain. She wants you to feel relaxed and be able to get relief from each and every treatment. I love the time I get to meditate in between the acupuncture and cupping.

From the first session I left the office with relief and it felt euphoric. For years I didn't have an escape from my chronic nerve pain during the day, let alone the week. Since I've started seeing Alison, this has changed.

Even if you don't understand how acupuncture or cupping works, I'd highly recommend trying treatment with Alison. She has a lot to offer with her expertise and knowledge.

Allison is the best. My girlfriend and I are doing so much better. Girlfriend was dealing pinched nerve so bad she could not sleep Allison came in on a Saturday to help her.

Wonderful. I've been receiving acupuncture treatment from Alison regularly for over a year and have had great results for a multitude of issues including tinnitus and stress. Her work and the environment are both very healing.

This place is awesome! I was very skeptical about acupuncture. This was a last resort. I went in last Thursday with SEVERE back pain. Alison Schaeffer worked her magic and I woke up the next morning pain free! I just did another session yesterday and woke up this morning feeling even better! I highly recommend this place! Go in and prove me wrong! Thank you Alison!
