Dr. Klate is one of the original acupuncturists in the Valley; usually he has an impossible wait-list, but recently new patients have been able to see him with a much shorter lead time. He has a rigorous academic /intellectual as well as spiritual approach, and values every aspect of a client’s path, whether it be emotional or physical. He’s helped the underlying structure of so many aspects of my own pursuits, creating a mental and physical well being that is otherwise difficult to find in alternative therapy, where people’s intentions are good, but their effects are too often not as long-lasting.
