What patients are saying...

"Serina Marichiba plays an important role in my long-term health and well-being.  Among healthcare professionals, she has the rare combination of intellectual smarts and genuine personal warmth.  Each treatment is targeted to what I am experiencing in the moment, but is developed in adherence to a larger vision for my on-going treatment plan.  Furthermore, Serina's involvement does not stop at the clinic door.  Her check-ins between treatments allow her to evaluate and readjust in real-time, if necessary, which is a wonderful example of the added value she brings as a practitioner.  I trust Serina to take care of me and she does a great job doing just that."

"Serina has an available, awake presence.  She is always listening for the underlying path to my healing.   My energy and health have improved greatly since seeing Serina."

"Serina helped me feel better from the beginning through the end of my pregnancy.  I suffered intense morning sickness, and Serina's magic needles were the only thing that got me through those awful few months.  Toward the end of my pregnancy, she administered the needles for what is known as ripening of the cervix.  I went into labor the day after my due date (not late as a lot of first babies are).  The labor was smooth and without complications.  Serina used her knowledge and expertise in applying pressure points for me throughout the labor.   It helped with the painful contractions immensely.  I highly recommend Serina for prenatal care.  I don't know how I could have done it without her!"

I was struggling with stress and tension-related neck and back muscle spasms and soreness for about six weeks before I went to see Serina.  Prior to visiting, I tried weekly massages, hot showers, and topical creams.  The massages gave relief, but only for a short time.  I was amazed by my first treatment with Serina -- nearly 95% of my soreness was gone after the first treatment!  I was so grateful that I called Serina the very next day and left her a voice message about how much better I felt and how remarkably effective the treatment was for me.  Since then, I've has some minor reoccurrences and plan to continue to work with Serina until I am completely free of pain.

I am an elderly person in generally good health but who nevertheless has had a series of minor problems recently.   Since I prefer to avoid constant pill taking, I have gone to acupuncture as a non-invasive alternative.  Serina has helped me with the pain of a variety of ills- recurring pain from a badly set broken wrist, lower back pain, tendinitis in both arms, and an arthritic knee.  She has even needled a spot on the top of my head which i believe has helped my memory.  I wholeheartedly recommend her as an acupuncturist and a healer of great sensitivity and caring.

I have been to many acupuncturists, and Serina is one of the most talented.  She is highly intuitive and highly skilled in Chinese Medicine.  Every time I see her, I walk away feeling more calm, centered, and lighter.

"Serina Marichiba gave me an acupuncture treatment that left me relaxed and uplifted.  I enjoyed how painless the needles were and the suction cupping on my back was just plain exhilerating.  It was the perfect preparation for the fifty mile bike ride I did soon after.  Thank you, Serina!"

"Though I was sick with a cold, I really enjoyed my acupuncture treatment with Serina at Blossom Acupuncture.  She is friendly, comforting, and really listened to what i had to say.  With her help I was back to my regular self in no time.  Great technique and very knowledgeable about herbs as well."
