Raku Acupuncture

"Michaela takes the time to get to know you, your health history, and your treatment goals and develops a plan WITH you. Something I have been especially grateful for is her ongoing practice of consent when on the table. She informs you what she is doing and why and asks permission before proceeding. I've been seeing her for a few months now and she makes you feel truly cared for. It is clear she has a deep passion for this work. Highly recommend!"

"There are no words for how amazing Micaela is. 5 stars simply isn’t enough. She listens and makes you feel so seen and heard. She genuinely cares about her patients and does everything possible to help them. Aside from her warm and inviting nature, she is incredibly skilled at what she does. I began seeing her for incredibly painful cycles. She told me that it would probably take 3 months to feel a big difference. I have gradually felt better since beginning to see her and now at 3 months in I am feeling so much relief. I went from being bedridden for 3-4 days on my cycle to now barely feeling anything on day 3 after seeing her on day 2. She is also very knowledgeable and has taught me so much about my own cycle and possible reasons I am feeling this way with great advice and tips. Micaela is an absolutely incredible person and an amazing acupuncturist. I am so thankful I found her she is truly changing my life."

"Micaela is absolutely amazing at her skills in acupuncture. I came in a few weeks ago for my first experience ever to acupuncture. She listened to my concerns and issues I wanted to address. One of them was lymphatic release in my body. Well, after my first visit with her, I felt better than I have in a long time AND I see a difference already! I am so happy she's right here in Newtown! I can't wait for my next session! Thanks for everything! ❤️"

"Micaela is a one of the most thoughtful acupuncturist I've worked with. From the very first visit, her warm and caring nature made me feel like I was in safe hands. Her in-depth understanding of acupuncture techniques is evident as she carefully explains each step of the process throughout the session. Thanks to Micaela, I've found relief from my allergies and overall renewed balance in my life. Highly recommended her for anyone seeking a wholehearted skilled practitioner."

"I started seeing Micaela in early 2022 as I was coming off of hormonal birth control and preparing to try to conceive. I had already been to acupuncture many times over the years and had tried quite a few different places, so I knew what to expect and what I was looking for. Micaela immediately made me feel relaxed and welcome as we discussed personal health topics and my health/fertility goals. I started seeing Micaela weekly (sometimes even twice weekly) as we worked to balance my hormones as well as handle other health issues. A few months into seeing Micaela, I started trying to get pregnant. As anyone who has gone through the experience of TTC, it can be a tough waiting game. Micaela always made me feel like I was doing a good job and helped me stay positive, even when it took longer than expected to conceive. After a few months of trying, she ordered me a special mix of traditional herbal medicine. Not long after drinking the herbs, I got pregnant! I genuinely think it would have taken a lot longer if it were not for Micaela and her expertise! Once I was pregnant, she was able to use acupuncture to successfully treat me for everything from insomnia, anxiety, mood swings, nausea, digestion issues, and the list goes on! Today I have a beautiful 3 week old daughter and I feel so blessed to have had Micaela as part of my fertility and health journey. I could not recommend Raku Acupuncture more!"
