“Samantha has magical hands and helped me already twice to get rid of my back pain and tension headache! She really ‘worked out’ the tight and stiff muscles on my whole body and after her treatment I just felt like a new wonderful person with a new body!”
-Melanie H.
“So I’ve been experiencing a lot of stress and muscle fatigue due to my crazy commute and competitive cycling training schedule. I sought out Samantha because she’d given me one of the best sports massages I’d had in SF. I figured a massage would snap me back into tip-top form……….I barely felt the insertions. And after my appointment, I felt quite relaxed, but not in a drained sort of way like after a deep massage. Samantha also gave me compassionate and non-judgmental holistic advice, even useful nutrition tips! ”

“Samantha was extremely helpful with my legs. I came in with a lot of tightness in my IT band and she was able to work it all out……She was masterful in explaining what she was doing and I walked away feeling much better than when I walked in.”
-June M.
“I’ve been to a lot of acupuncture places on both coasts and even used to work at one here in SF. The trifecta of acupuncture, cupping, and massage that Samantha offers is top notch. Her work stuck with me for several days and in general I felt amazing both day of and over the weekend.”
-Tim B.
“As a student, spending many late nights in “study position”, I developed a tight and painful shoulder problem I could not shake. In the past, I tried weekly acupuncture treatments for over 5 months with no lasting improvement. I truly believe that Samantha’s trifecta acupuncture, massage, and cupping has made the difference for me. After just one treatment I feel a huge improvement! I wish I had seen her earlier.”
– Tara J.
“I’ve been seeing Samantha for a few months now and to be honest I was a little skeptical of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Boy did Samantha change my views, life and state of well being! Samantha was professional, caring and went out of her way to make me feel comfortable and that all my questions/concerns were handled in a professional manor. Plus the followups after your appointments is truly amazing!”
-Andrew Y.
“Samantha has saved me. On too many occasions I’ve broken myself with sports here in the Bay Area. Every time my muscles freak out, I call Samantha for help and she sorts it out. Without fail. Thank you!!!”
-Charlie H.
“Samantha is the BEST. She is incredibly knowledgeable and you’ll walk away from her not only feeling better, but knowing the best way to treat your body and symptoms in your daily life. She has a great experience with sports-related injuries. I would recommend her to anyone.”
-Aleksandra S.
Samantha is by far the most amazing acupuncturist I’ve ever been to! She has solved every injury I’ve had, including completely getting rid of old ones. Being a professional aerialist is tough on the body, but Samantha keeps me going strong and functioning optimally. She is also a high level athlete herself, and her embodied knowledge is such a plus. Her treatment process is extremely unique, and her knowledge spans wide to where she can tailor fit the ideal treatment from different angles. She’s the perfect combination of efficient and methodical, where she will get a lot done in the session but also takes time to check in and take time where necessary. I always look forward to our sessions. She’s also an absolute gem of a human being! I couldn’t recommend her enough!!
Samantha has been my go-to therapist to help recover and prepare for all of my races. She’s the kind of therapist that understands an athlete’s need to push themselves, and most important, she can tell where the line is when that athlete should pull back. What I like most about Samantha’s treatments is that she takes the time to understand long-term goals and can readily identify the hurdles. She supports my ambitions with a deliberate and holistic approach: acupuncture with mindfulness about how nutrition and stress (physical and mental) can play a part in achieving my personal best. I highly recommend!-
