"I see Milana, who is absolutely wonderful. She is deeply compassionate, extremely knowledgeable, and creates a safe, caring atmosphere that allows me to fully relax and truly lean into each acupuncture session. Because of a chronic condition, I have been attending weekly sessions for about five months. The treatments have helped tremendously, and I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my overall health and well-being. I can’t thank Milana enough for all that she does. Having received acupuncture for more than 20 years, I can confidently say that Milana is by far the best acupuncturist I have ever had!"

"I have been going to Milana for a couple months now. I went in for hyperthyroidism, Graves’ disease. It has helped more than I could have ever imagined. Helped manage/completely disappear my hives due to medication. Helped with over heating and rapid heart rate. Over time we have added points for migraines, foggy brain and anxiety. I leave feeling like my old self and even better. I highly recommend this place for anyone and everyone for whatever it may be!"

"I have relied on acupuncture, on and off, for sixteen years and I have worked with a number of different practitioners for complementary care in many cities and states. Milana Shaikh is a testament to her profession. Since our first session over a month ago, she has provided targeted care and strategies to help me alleviate pain and discomfort and proactively improve my health. I feel worlds better in just a short period of time. Milana has taken seriously my concerns and symptoms and offers me solutions that embody the shared patient-practitioner experience that works best for my care. I recommend Milana without hesitation to anyone who is exploring acupuncture to improve their health.

"I have had an amazing experience with Milana Shaikh. I had a very debilitating car accident August of 2024 which caused painful and debilitating injuries. I have used PT, and other medical specialties and still had pain and restricted movement. I felt like my "meridians" were somehow blocked, an issue I kind of thought up, without even being sure what that meant. Under Milana's skilled treatment at my first appointment in April she was able to discern and treat the issues I had. After that first appoint, I was without pain for the first time. The relief lasted about 4 hours. Now, as I have continued, I am pain free more often than not and have improved mobility.. This has been a great experience, has enabled me to function the majority of the time and enables me to work more with the other modalities I am involved with. She is gentle, skilled, attentive and respects my input and feedback. I cannot believe the difference this has made in my life and increased capability. Not only that, she is truly a professional who loves her work."

"after one session with Milana I felt immediate relief. I was able to walk comfortably for the first time in weeks. I've continued to see Milana regularly and I'm now able to run again for short distances. The acupuncture (and knowledge of the body) also been instrumental in helping with anxiety, bloating and other various conditions. I can't recommend highly enough!"

"Although I am not new to acupuncture, I have never had a Saam style treatment until I started seeing Milana a few months ago. Given a very busy schedule, Saam was a perfect option for me as it only requires 4 needles and about 30 mins. I noticed changes immediately following my first session and have continued treatments for ongoing maintenance and well-being. Milana is a wonderful practitioner. She is very knowledgeable, patient, caring and compassionate. I am so grateful for the wonderful care being offered and for Milana who is such a bright light."
