My experience with Carissa has been outstanding. I felt immediately better after my first treatment. Carissa has a professional and caring attitude plus she is excellent at what she does! Her calm professional demeanor is comforting and her sessions always have produced positive results for the different health issues she has worked on for me!  I can hardly wait for my next treatment! Highly recommended!

Prior to being referred to Carissa,  I had been seeing another acupuncturist for 7 years.  That acupuncturist stopped practicing so finding an acupuncturist to the same level was extremely important to me.  It took me nearly a year to find Carissa. Carissa takes my treatments to another level which I didn’t think was possible. I love how she takes the time to get to know you and find out your needs. She re-evaluates each visit.  Due to her depth of knowledge and expertise in not only acupuncture but massage as well, she knows exactly what my body is in need of.  She has this ability to read the body in a way I can not explain.  The main reason I go to Carissa is migraines and second for anxiety.  My migraines have lessened to the point, I don’t recall the last time I had one. It has been months.  My anxiety peaks from time to time but luckily through seeing Carissa regularly, she helps me get through those tough times. I can not say enough positive things about Carissa.  Not only do I love going to her, I love being able to refer to clients to her.

Over a number of years I have been fascinated with the concept of acupuncture and had read literature about acupuncture’s many benefits.  When I began my menopause journey,I started to experience frequent and fierce “Hot Flashes” as well as excessive water retention.  I was hopeful to enter the next phase of my life as gracefully as possible and was not pleased with the options provided me by Western Medicine/Doctors. It was time for me to explore other options, so I contacted Carissa Hill for a acupuncture consultation. Carissa’s apt knowledge, thoroughness and wonderful bedside manner, convinced me to give acupuncture a try.  Well, the results were immediate and successful.  I prefer how my body, mind and spirit feels after receiving an acupuncture treatment and therefore have continued to see Carissa at least once a month for over 5 years.  Based on what is currently going on with my body each month, Carissa customizes my acupuncture treatments.  I consider receiving these monthly treatments as essential as breathing and crucial to my continued health and well-being.  Carissa Hill is someone I would highly recommend as an “Acupuncture Provider Extraordinaire.”

I have been dealing with skin irritations and rashes for over 10 years. Carissa was recommended to me by a friend who had great success with her using acupuncture and I was ready to try an alternative to western dermatology.   In many visits to dermatologists, I felt I was just another person with a rash, and was given a steroid cream, which worked in the short term but the problem always came back. Carissa helped me start a long term solution to my skin issues by listening and getting me started down a path of eliminating items from my diet and surroundings, as well taking Chinese medicinal herbs to help reduce the length of allergic skin reactions. I’m now over 4 months from having any skin reactions and I no longer need Chinese herbs. Carissa listened and helped me solve my skin mystery without long term use of drugs or creams. I really appreciate her approach to healing.

Carissa is nothing short of amazing. I used to have 9-10 days of migraines each month but now I’m down to 1-2! She even helped me find a naturopath when it seemed clear that my migraines could get even better with additional help. I have learned so much from her that my migraines aren’t the only things about my health that have gotten better. I was very skeptical about acupuncture before meeting her but she does a great job of making people feel comfortable and answers questions in a way I can understand. She is awesome!

Carissa is amazing. She takes the time to understand the whole picture of what is going on with a person and is very intuitive. She has helped me manage chronic pain and anxiety.

Carissa has been a lifesaver. Last year when I started having back pain she knew exactly how to treat my symptoms. It is the only intervention that has provided an immediate sense of relief and well-being. Her treatments have also helped me cope with very stressful work. Her combined training in acupuncture and massage therapy make her a highly skilled clinician. She intuitively knows where and how to apply various treatment modalities. I would recommend her without reservation.

Carissa has been an angel when it comes to healing. She somehow knows exactly what to do when it comes to moving energy and targeting the locations in the body that need “re-vamping.” She’s amazing and talented and I refer her to all my friends and family.
