Blue Lotus Center For Health

Louella Woodhouse is one of the best acupuncturist in San Diego County. Also not only does she offer a wide variety of treatments… But she’s a great herbal ologist as well! As far as I’m concerned she’s the go-​to lady for healing and I’ve been seeing her for the past 6 years… What can I say she keeps me in tip top shape for my job!

After a car accident, and trying chiro and massage I finally found Louella. I remember after my first visit and every visit since, I walked out feeling like jello! I love this place! Thank you Louella :)

Louella is one amazing gal. I have been going to Louella for some time and should have written a review long ago — but better late than never.
Louella went to UCSD — yes, she is a brainy gal — and she continues to study to keep up her skills and gain new ones. But her brains do not take from her heart — she really cares and listens and thinks about you and how she can help.
Today I went due to a pulled back muscle — I could not bend — also had a very sore chest muscle — I am about 70% better after just one treatment. Yeah — bet I am almost as good as new tomorrow.
My husband goes also — he had a trigger finger and was told he needed surgery — NOT — he went only 3 times for this condition and he has not had the problem since.
Louella was also the only one of many health care professionals to identify that I probably had a genetic methylation problem due to my many issues. WOW!!! She was proved correct when I took a genetic profile test she suggested (23 and Me). For the first time in my life I know what is causing my problems which means I have a chance to resolve them instead of hit and miss — try this try that.
Thanks Louella for caring and for that great brain of yours!!!

Louella offers a superb acupuncture service. I had significant shoulder nerve trouble and it’s on the mend due to her actions and insights. The electric needles are amazing. Also the targeted pressure massage helped my injury recovery and ability to sleep.

This place is great. I went there completely stressed out and left feeling as if I had a new beginning. I have probably had of about 100 professional massages in my day. This one was the best. Allison has magic hands. She does a perfect mix of shiatsu, deep tissue, a bit of thai, (it feels as if someone is doing yoga for you), and even a tiny bit of reiki. In addition she offers some hot shell massage that is simply heaven. Do yourself a huge favor and check it out.

Ok now that I’m «out of the closet» with my pregnancy I can write this… and it may be TMI so, sorry but I couldn’t be happier!
I came to Louella as I was coming off the pill to help with my adjustment to being off hormones for the first time in 20+ years and also because I am old. She asked me at my first session if I wanted to get pregnant and I said yes, but I figured it would be taking awhile. Well, four weekly sessions later and I was knocked up at my ripe old age (and with many years of hard living under my belt, I might add). And Louella is just plain awesome as a practitioner, knowledgeable and soothing. I cannot wait until I can go back for «happy baby» treatments!

This was my third different acupuncture experience. I was never a fan… but now I am! Louella took a detailed history and explained how everything works. My chi is flowing and my body’s healing quickly. Blue Lotus Center for Health is awesome — thank you Louella!

I have been seeing Louella on and off for quite a while now. Not always for the same reasons. Acupuncture is very relaxing for me and Louella is the best there is. The office is very tranquil and inviting. Louella always takes her time and I never feel rushed. I love the back rub at the end of my treatment. Louella also works with Kaiser insurance which makes it so easy for me. Thanks again for everything Louella.

I love this place! Loella is amazing at what she does. I always leave there feeling relaxed and stress free. I started going because I wanted to regulate my cycle after taking myself off of birth control and not getting my period for months. Two days after the acupuncture treatment, I got it! I would highly recommend this place!!!

Been feeling quite stressed lately, something Accupuncture always helps alleviate. Office was a but hard to find, no sign out front by the street. The woman was understanding about my being a bit late… Especially since when I arrived the previous session was still going on so I had to wait regardless.
The session, not as great of an experience as I’ve had at other locations. Felt rushed and not completely comfortable, which is essential for this type of treatment. I enjoyed the session but will not be booking another session.

saw Louella because I wanted acupuncture to de-​stress and relax. The office is in a quiet location and I felt comfortable during the visit. Although I wanted acupuncture for relaxation, Louella discovered during my consultation that I am trying to get pregnant, so she added needles to help with my fertility, which was a plus for me. She is professional, knowledgeable, and very thorough. I felt very relaxed after my treatment!
By the way, I found out about Louella through Mind Body Partnerships (
) and got a good deal on a package!
