Staying in Balance Acupuncture in Easthampton

I feel very listened to and cared for by Bonnie. I appreciate her skill, knowledge, and expertise and the suggestions she offers. She has helped me deal with soreness and aching due to radiation for breast cancer. The treatment has been relaxing and I feel better after each session.

I was not familiar with acupuncture but I knew I needed a new way to address my pain with bursitis and inflammation. Bonnie was amazing. She taught me more about my body than any practitioner I've worked with, and after 3 sessions I was sleeping through the night pain free and i was able to increase my mobility. Bonnie takes a gentle, informed approach to her practice and focuses on just the pain points but the whole patient.

I've been seeing Bonnie for allergies, chronic fatigue and other autoimmune-related symptoms. After several sessions, my suppressed immune system feels stronger, my sinuses are clear and my energy and mental clarity are noticeably better. I'm so grateful!

I came to Bonnie over a year ago with chronic back pain and I was also struggling to get my IBD under control. It took many months for me to realize how out of balance my life truly was. I had been to acupuncture before, but I had never gone consistently and decided I would stick with it because I was at my wits end. Not only am I feeling better, but the found awareness, with Bonnie’s help, of my health and habits have completely transformed me. I always considered myself a healthy person who tried to stay active and eat relatively healthy. As time went on in my healing journey (and my babies got older) I found I had the capacity to really zone in on what I was eating and how I was fueling my body. Bonnie suggested a do a food diary, which if you’re being very honest with yourself, can be extremely eye opening. With Bonnie cheering me on I challenged myself to follow a very strict AIP diet, which is a diet designed to help chronic and autoimmune conditions, and is meant to be followed temporarily. Although the “diet” may be temporary, the lessons I have learned, and the habits I have created around food will carry with me. It is vital I take a few hours every week to chop veggies and prep things for the week. Breakfast is the hardest meal for me to eat healthy, so I make sure I have breakfasts prepped. These breakfasts are chuck full of veggies and protein, with no inflammatory or processed ingredients. The last year and a half have changed me for the better, and I am SO thankful to have found Bonnie both as an acupuncture practitioner and also a support system.

I came to see Bonnie because of tingling in my first finger and thumb. She asked a number of questions to understand my pain and my symptoms and my lifestyle. Her approach was to start with 5 treatments (one per week) and she also gave me a number of stretches to do in between. Her treatment, which included needles and cupping, worked great for me! After 5 treatments the pain and numbness was gone and I feel more in touch with my body and better equipped to address my pain(s) in the future. Highly recommend!

I went to see Bonnie due to some back and hip pain and esophagus issues. What a lovely human who has a gentle way about her, is extremely knowledgeable and truly wants to help heal. Back pain was gone within a couple days of my first treatment and the other pain gradually became better over the course of treatment. She creates a space that is welcoming, relaxing and safe. She takes her time and offers solutions. Highly recommended!

This was my first experience with acupuncture and I absolutely loved it and was very pleased with the outcome of every session. Bonnie is a wonderful healer and person. She’s very engaged, caring and knowledgeable. Bonnie is very transparent throughout the sessions in terms of letting her patients know what she’s doing and why she’s doing it. Any chance I get to recommend her services to someone I do.

Before my first appt. with Bonnie, I was in near constant pain and my normal activities were extremely limited. I was immediately struck by her thoroughness, professionalism and understanding of my condition. I noticed significant improvement after my second visit, and continued to gradually improve. I was able to stop the large amount of ibuprofen I'd been taking, and am back to living my life without pain. In addition to the treatment she provided during our sessions, Bonnie gave me several between-treatment exercises as well as community resources to assist in my recovery. I will always be grateful to Bonnie for helping me get my life back.
