Finding
First Visit
Acupuncture isn’t really into hard-and-fast rules. However, there are some general rules of thumb when it comes to preparing for an acupuncture appointment.
Advanced
FIRST APPOINTMENT
- Your initial visit may take up to 1 1/2 hours. Please plan your schedule accordingly.
- Avoid scheduling acupuncture before or after something very strenuous.
You don’t want to show up very full, or after having eaten something heavy, fried or spicy, but do not go for acupuncture on an empty stomach. It can leave you feeling lightheaded or physically depleted.

Testimonial
I was very happy to speak Dr Lana when I called. She was very informative and personable that I decided to give it a try the next morning. I felt great after my treatment but the paper work was a bit of work but I understand that is necessary before I start treatment. Dr Lana was very professional, explained everything very well. I was very relaxed after getting a thorough treatment that I booked a whole package so I can take care of my pain faster.

Clinic Patient
I have seen Dr. Lana three times now and love how thorough she is and all the details she puts into her work. I've been getting acupuncture for years and so impressed with her work. She adds so much more to treatments than I was expecting. Each treatment has been different yet the goals are the same. She teaches me whats going on with my body and gives me information to help myself on my own. I am now a forever client of Dr. Lana.

Dear Elvira, Thank you for being an important part of helping me feel better than I have in YEARS! I am so grateful for the care you have given me. It’s usually very difficult for me to relax during a treatment, but I trust you and the way you worked on my pains gave me some room to work on the emotional ones too. You are a beautiful healer. With love, Stephanie
Complaints: Bi-polar, neurological disorder tremor, twitches from Reyes Syndrome since 4 y.o. Stomach issues, pain. Changes: Tremor almost completely stops for a few days. Relieves stress and reduces pain significantly. Elvira was great to work with.
I suffer from high blood pressure, and I was greatly impressed by the effectiveness of acupuncture in lowering it. After a 30 minute treatment by Lana my pressure goes down 15-25 points for 3-5 days. With two treatments a week I may be able to drop some of my medications. It is also a convenient location for me, and they offer a variety treatments for back pain and other conditions that I'm going to try.

Tried cupping and moxa with Lana for lower back pain and tendonitis- sympthoms improved after first session. As an engineer I am not a great supporter of alternative medicine but in this particular case my experience was good. Physical therapy I was sent ty by my pcp did not have nearly same effect.

Very good therapist. Very talkative ( joking. She was too hard at work making me feel five years younger ) Elvira is excellent person , very intelligent. Knows her shit ( sic ). I highly recommend this business. And great prices, especially for way you will feel when you walk out of there. If you need professional massage / acupuncture, serve your self and go here.
Complaints: neuropathy, diarrhea, anxiety, bi-polar. Described changes: I feel that it has slowed the progression of the degenerative neuropathy. Elvira has good technique in applying needles and removing them. She also is clean, well- managed, well-dressed and obviously well educated. Elvira has done a wonderful job in acupuncture, and I am grateful for it.
