Classic Acupuncture 

"My health was terrible before starting treatments here.  I felt very sick.  I felt that I needed to get help or I was going to die.  I was so desperate when I found Ingrid.  I was amazed with the results.  Treatments are very relaxing; I always feel better and improvement afterwards.  I felt a great difference.  My energy is much better.  Digestion, gas and bloating have improved.  My bladder feels stronger.  I can concentrate more.  I feel so much better that I can get through the day.  I encourage anyone who has hypothyroid or Hashimoto's should/must give acupuncture a chance.  It helps!!!"

"Because of a referral from family, I decided to try acupuncture.  It has reduced my physical pain and lessen anxiety.  I was surprised on the day of my first treatment.  Even for 2-3 days after, my overall energy and health feels vibrant and flowing freely.  I felt clearheaded and sharp mentally.  I was very much at ease emotionally and was able to deal with life situations easily.  I love acupuncture's holistic views and will be a life-long participant."

"I had intense knee pain due to a torn meniscus.  A family member recommended here.  Now my pain has greatly reduced and I have already recommended other family members.  I like coming here for the treatments and enjoy the music."

"The testimony of a few friends convinced me it would help to see Ingrid.  For my first appointment, it's very relaxing, personal and comfortable. "

"Believing in TCM blended with Western medicine, I decided to try acupuncture.  I've seen continued improvement and stability for my chronic immune and GI issues and effective pain management.  Ingrid, who has excellent listening skills, is confidant in her clinical knowledge and skills.  The office is well-organized and clean.  I definitely recommend this place to everyone."

" I have read many great things about the value of acupuncture, so wanted to give it a try-very happy that I did.  It gives me the calmness, restful sleep and less anxiety.  Ingrid is an amazing listener and evaluated my situation very well.  Thank you, Ingrid for the great service.  I love coming here!

"I felt much better after my first acupuncture treatment.  Instead of 83, I felt like I was in my 60s."

"I was depressed; had constant worries and was very anxious before acupuncture.  I decided to try acupuncture because I wanted an alternative to medication.  I got relief from symptoms with medications, but did not like the side effects that came with them. 

Originally I was very skeptical, but I felt relief after just one treatment!  I like getting treatments here because it's calming, relaxing and informative.  I have gotten complete relief from my depression and anxiety symptoms.  The only side effects are good-knowledge and just an overall feeling of balanced!"

"It's very nice and relaxing to come here.  Ingrid's kind and helpful and I know she knows what she's doing.  My body was very tender and I had bad knee and back pain before getting acupuncture treatments.  Now I feel a lot better.  I am not as sore or painful like I was at the beginning.  I know my overall health has improved.  I feel less sore in all areas.  I wish I had come to acupuncture sooner."

"I have fibromyalgia and suffer from chronic migraines.  My previous TCM practitioner was able to reduce my pain level, but Ingrid has also greatly reduced the number of migraines, pain level and helped increase my energy level.  What surprises me also is that I finally found relief of menstrual cramps and regularity of my cycles.  I can do so much more for my family now that I am being treated here.  Ingrid is extremely thorough and absolutely treating in a professional and caring manner.  It's wonderful to work with her.  I strongly recommend taking the herbs she prescribes.  It's a bit more work to prepare and drink them, but the results are truly significant."

"I was in lots of pain before coming here.  With treatments, my back pain is a lot less and more manageable.  I am also getting fewer headaches.  Even my sleeping and eating habits improved.  Ingrid is wonderful to work with.  She's patient, understanding and kind.  I especially love getting cupping here."

"My heartbeat was irregular and my breathing was constricted.  After 4 or 5 treatments, my heartbeat was regulated and has stayed that way for 3 years.  It has been a very positive experience to work with Ingrid.  She listens carefully to my concerns and is very skilled."

Renowned concert cellist, Nickolai Kolarov, was referred to our clinic by another patient.  When he first came to see us, Nikolai was having pain in the arm that prevented him from playing his instrument and carrying on with his normal practice routine.  Ingrid applied a combined treatment of acupuncture, herbs, and massage to restore full function to Nikolai's arm so that he can handle the rigor of his music practice and the physical demand of concert performances without any restriction.   He was a featured musician in the annual Balkanicus concert held on May 2, 2010 at the University of Minnesota.  Congratulations to Nickolai's success.  We are glad to be of service to him.

"The bloating sensation that I had felt during PMS was dramatically reduced after beginning acupuncture treatments with Ingrid. Before that, I would struggle with water-retention in my legs and hormonal imbalance and thus irritability also for nearly five days whenever my menstrual period was near.  Ingrid has also helped me fight seasonal allergies, but I am impressed by Ingrid's sure handedness with the needles.  She was so good at keeping me calmed and in telling me what she was doing and why she was treating a specific spot during my first treatment that I did not instinctively shrink away from the needles anymore after that.  My weekly visits have been wonderful. I get to lie there in the room surrounded by the warmth of heat lamps shining on me while I doze off... You can hear lots of birds chirping from the pond out back while Ingrid gently comes in and out to check up on you in between your quick naps.  I would highly recommend all of my friends to seek treatments here to feel better!"

"Your acupuncture treatment was awesome.  It was a lifesaver.  I was in so much excruciating pain that I could hardly do anything all summer.  I could barely walk."

....."I would not have graduated without the acupuncture treatment, because I would not have been able to concentrate and study.  Moreover, I wouldn't of been able to sit in class, especially with the growling and gruesome noises I had to make".....

"...The nausea and vomiting feeling struck me all day long and nighttime queasiness was particularly unpleasant.....After acupuncture treatments, the vomiting stopped and the nausea became more manageable and infrequent."

"Ingrid is a very wonderful practitioner as well as an excellent listener.  She was able to provide me with good sound advices on diet along with other practical tips.  Her expertise has greatly helped me."

"I am very thankful for and impressed with the level of care, attention and skills that I received during my treatments with Ingrid.  I will definitely recommend Ingrid to anyone who is in need."
