“I was experiencing sinus pressure and over the counter medicines weren’t helping. I received an acupuncture treatment from Dr. Christie and after 15-20 minutes post treatment, my sinuses were completely clear! I’d recommend this treatment over playing the medicine game any day.”

“I was very skeptical of acupuncture at first... but Dr. Christie changed my mind and life forever! I originally began seeing her for hormonal imbalances and associated digestive issues and I noticed a difference within 2-4 visits. Not only is Dr. Christie one of the most knowledge people regarding women’s health and eastern medicine, she is basically my therapist too because she lets me vent and brings out emotions I didn’t even know I had LOL! She is the kindest person you will ever meet and always has a smile on her face! I leave there feeling like a new woman and person, EVERY SINGLE SESSION. I cannot rate her high enough or recommend her enough!”

“There are not enough words nor stars that will help me explain the level of care I receive from Dr.Christie! After several failed surgeries, seeing my western Dr have the look/sound of being defeated; but yet suggest another surgery helped me search for another way of healing!
I am so grateful to have found Dr. Christie, for the first time in over 8 years I am heard and the root of my issue is being addressed. Not only is the root of my issue being addressed, but I am no longer taking pharmaceutical enzymes my western Dr swore I would have to take for the rest of my life! Yes, I am no longer taking a pharmaceutical that negatively affected my GI system and i am sleeping/resting again. **Please note this was a decision i made on my own once i saw improvements in my situation. All of the negative reactions from the pharmaceutical are gone and I am working with my western dr to run periodical blood testing.**
Traditional Chinese Medicine doesn’t cure you over night and take time; which I am willing to give my body the time to heal naturally with the help of Dr. Christie! After every session I leave her practice with the feeling of leaving the spa mixed with a superb therapy session along with feeling of PEACE, SUCCESS, and HOPE!
Thank you Dr.Christie for restoring my FAITH, for hearing me, and working with me on my most complicated health issue; which I’ve learned is not as complicated when you look at it within TCM! You are truly an Angel filled with Grace, Compassion, and Serenity; which reflects in your work! You are a breathe of fresh air and epitome of rejuvenation!!”

“I highly recommend Dr. Christie Teruel. She treated me after a car accident and I was astounded at how quickly I recovered from my injuries. She is an excellent acupuncturist- thorough and professional.”

“Dr. Christie is an absolute gem. She is very patient and detail-oriented when getting to know her patients. You can tell that she genuinely cares for your well-being and recovery. What I love the most is that she takes the time to explain her treatment methods and actively makes sure that you understand what is going on. She also makes sure that you’re comfortable every step of the way. Her warm personality comes naturally and makes you feel like you’re with a long-time friend. I don’t think I could ever sing enough praises for her.
I’ve had several sessions with her over the last few months to treat my insomnia and chronic back pain and I have to say that over this period the results are very pronounced. I’ve tried other treatments with no success and got to the point where I was willing to try anything to get sleep. I still have occasional pains, but they are less frequent and less severe. I’ve been consistently getting more hours of sleep. I’ve also found that I’m able to handle my anxiety and stress much better, thanks to lifestyle changes, other medical treatments, along with the help of Dr. Christie.
12/10 would recommend to anyone considering or just curious about traditional eastern medicine.”

“Dr. Christie is amazingly intuitive, kind, knowledgeable and passionate. I went to her seeking relief from a nagging glute/muscle imbalance as well as to regulate my time of the month symptoms and get rid of brain fog. Consistency is key and soon enough I was pain free, my periods got easier to manage and I was sleeping like I hadn’t slept in years. She has great knowledge of herbs that helped get me the sleep I needed. So grateful for Dr. Christie and so thankful to be pain free, sleeping through the night and not eating my feelings every month!!”

“my first ever experience with Acupuncture was a disaster so when my wife scheduled me with Dr. Teruel it will be the same. Boy was I WRONG! she came up to me and can tell how stressed I was(when I clearly cant say the same) at the same time, I was able to move the way I wanted to. right after i finish my first treatment I quickly scheduled for another treatment without hesitation. the next day that’s all I can talk about and recommended it to all my friends and colleagues. looking forward to going back!! =D =D”
