Client Testimonials
On a recommendation for treatment for a wrist injury, I went for my first-ever acupuncture appointment at Meridian with Cinthia, and it was terrific. Not knowing how it would go, or much about acupuncture at all, I was a bit apprehensive. But it was a very pleasurable and relaxing experience, and I think quite helpful for my strained wrist. Cinthia was very professional, up front and reassuring about the techniques, and what was going on. She’s very calm, explanatory and has a deft touch. She definitely made my first acupuncture experience an easy and pleasant one.
Cinthia truly cares about her clients. She greeted me with delicious lavender tea while asking about what I was seeking in acupuncture treatment. She uses thinner needles that are gentler, and I barely felt anything when they were inserted. It was such a relaxing experience overall, and she cultivates a very calming atmosphere in her office and in her practice. I highly recommend getting acupuncture with Cinthia.
My experience with Dr Cinthia has truly been life changing. I came to her stressed out, anxious, having back pain and difficulty sleeping. She listened and instantly connected with what I needed to make some lifestyle changes. I see her weekly and the difference her extensive knowledge and healing Acupuncture has made in my life is nothing short of remarkable. If you want to be genuinely taken care of, come see her for a consultation. You will be so glad you did!
I visited Meridian Acupuncture with a scratchy throat and stiff neck, (unrelated). After a thorough interview process, Dr. Cinthia applied smaller needles, (Japanese style) which weren’t even felt. After a relaxing time spent on the table | was able to move my neck freely and the scratchiness had subsided. Thank you so much Dr. Cinthia for an amazing treatment!
| have been suffering with back pain since 2010-2011. I’m that guy who always looks for medical and scientific explanations. Dr. Cinthia answered every question I had with detail and precision. Her method and technique was so professional and gentle that | did not even feel one needle prick sensation. Her clinic is so relaxing and soothing that | even fell asleep during the procedure. I would highly recommend Dr. Cinthia and her clinic to anyone who needs an acupuncturist.
