"Samaya is a very talented acupuncture doctor! She has helped me so much with a variety if issue ranging from anxiety, to knee pain, lower back pains, asthma issues, even insomnia. When I first started seeing her I honestly wasn't sure how much these treatments could help me. Now I am a regular, and I always look forward to my treatments, and how much relief they bring me. She knows what she is doing, and is always very friendly and warm when I come in to see her. She is VERY gentle and makes the experience pleasant, and relaxing which I really appreciate. I always feel better after I have an acupuncture treatment with her. Relaxing office, easy to find, lots of free public parking. Highly recommend her services, and her Chinese herbal remedies work!"

"This woman is awesome. She’s a healer. Herbalist, acupuncturist, mother. Caring, listens. This is in her blood. Love her and she’s a blessing. Excellent at what she does."

"I came to Samaya with some back pain, especially lower back, and the experience with her has been absolutely awful. I explained my areas of concern and I already love herbal medicine, a healthy lifestyle, and a holistic lifestyle in general, so it's not like this is all new to me. But cupping especially and everything can be done right, and she goes way left out of nowhere and all wrong. It was sloppy, unprofessional, and my god people - go anywhere else. Her entire interaction with me was like talking to someone who doesn't care once you've paid. My gosh she doesn't listen to you at all, and it's such a shame because that's hard earned money to feel worse AFTER than before! I don't like to do negative reviews but people need to know."

"Recently I injured my lower lumbar spine, and the pain has been excruciating. Mobility has been limited for over two weeks, one of the most difficult injuries I have ever sustained. Upon my first visit with Samaya, she quickly and effectively tuned in. I immediately felt calm, uplifted, and less anxious about the injury. The results since her treatment a few days ago have been amazing - the pain has substantially lowered! And by taking her advice on how to attend to the pain, I believe she has allowed me to greatly lower the recovery time (and get back to my active life)! I recommend visiting her as soon as possible for chronic or acute pain, as well as emotional balancing. She has treated me numerous times over the last few years for physical injury and emotional well-being. She has an uplifting presence with a gentle yet strong touch. I feel a recharge in my life force; she provides me with balance, and I feel naturally happier, stronger, and more able to function at my optimum! I am so thankful for finding her!"
