"Timothy's energy, presence and healing is beyond description. I've been getting acupuncture for over a decade from over 15 different practitioners and Timothy's work had the most profound impact on me. I felt amazing, slept amazing, had breakthroughs in my life and my psyche. So glad I met him and so grateful to have had work done by him!"

Tim is top notch. I've been going to him for the last several weeks. He listens when you explain your symptoms, challenges, circumstances, etc. Then applies his knowledge to offer a very thoughtful plan customized to your needs. He offers ongoing, achievable advice based on your progress and is very gentle with his acupuncture. For someone who's needle-adverse, he makes me feel comfortable and I barely feel the needles - if at all. I'm very glad Tim was recommended to me.

I've been to many acupuncturists over the years and Timothy is one of the best I've seen. He's got great energy and is a pleasure to be around. I went in for a pulled muscle in my lower back, a problem I've had for years off and on, and Timothy fixed me up in just a week! The space is quite beautiful as well. So calming and beautiful! A treat to visit.

"I went to see Tim after being in a car accident. My whole body was tight and I was unsettled and on edge. I have a ridiculous (but very real!) fear of needles, so I had always viewed acupuncture as something that might work for other people, but I would never do. After many friends recommended it, and I really needed some relief, I figured it was worth a try. I was immediately put to easy by Tim's gentle and very professional manner and the setting in the office. He spent a fair amount of time asking questions- more than any doctor has ever asked before. Then, he began the treatment. He explained what he was doing the whole time and continuously checked in with how I was doing. It was a strange sensation, but not painful, and the communication really helped with feeling safe and comfortable. Afterward, I felt incredibly relaxed and very balanced. It was a great experience and I will definitely be back. "
