Testimonials:
I partner with Beth for both acupuncture treatment and Holistic Pelvic Care. Beth has provided me with tremendous support in healing pelvic trauma and post traumatic stress. Her intuitive and compassionate treatments helped me move from disconnection from and fear of my pelvic space to feeling strong, sacred and integrated in my body. Each session is truly a gift of knowledge and nurturing.” -KG Portland, OR

As beautiful as the birth of my son was, it was also very traumatic. After he was born I was rushed to the hospital, where I received about 30 stitches. I could hardly move for the first three weeks. Three and a half months later the pain was still really intense. My friend recommended that I try holistic pelvic care. The results that I had working with Beth were amazing. After only one session there was a drastic improvement in how I felt. I was very fortunate to be able to work with Beth. I highly recommend her.” –RR Cottage Grove, OR

Beth's intuition and experience coupled with her healing hands and heart is a rare treat. From the moment you walk through the door, you know that you have arrived at a special place. Beth is always centered, confident and very competent. I have benefited from her acupuncture, advice and referrals. She has helped me through several acute experiences with anxiety, physical injuries and overall well being. I consider her a cornerstone to an ongoing routine of self care and personal transformation.” –SW Portland, OR
