“Paola has supported me in reducing my ailments (allergies, lower back pain, sciatica, neck pain) as well as providing me with extra boosts of energy as I've needed it.”

From the reviews
Paola is one of the best acupuncturists I’ve ever met. In the Bay Area, where everyone is a “healer,” Paola sets herself apart with the perfect blend of technical skills and bedside manner. I’m a trainer and every client I have referred to her has received benefit from her.
I can't thank Paola enough for her help when I was struggling with Bell's Palsy. She's truly the best! Her support was essential in my recovery process and helped me recover through her expertise in acupuncture. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of compassionate and effective care.
Paola is the best at her craft! Her ability to figure out what your body needs and treat it is amazing. I have been a patient for many years and acupuncture has helped with injuries, stress relief, better immunity and overall health. Highly recommend!

What to expect from your first cupping session
New to cupping? Here's the short version. What happens: the practitioner places cups on the skin — most often the back, shoulders, or legs — and creates suction (with a pump, or briefly with a flame for fire cupping). Cups either stay put for a few minutes (dry cupping) or are glided over oiled skin (massage cupping). A session is usually 15–45 minutes, often added to a massage or acupuncture visit. The marks: cupping leaves round, bruise-like circles that are normal and usually fade in a few days to a couple of weeks — they're discoloration from the suction, not an injury, and shouldn't really hurt. What to wear: comfortable clothing that gives access to the area being treated. Afterward: drink water, keep the area warm, and skip intense sun or a hot sauna right after.
