Source Empowered Wellness

Just got another accupuncture session with Simone this one was for a stiff neck and some low back pain lingering from a snowboarding trip this weekend. I passed out after about 10 minutes and woke up feeling love for acupuncture again as my body feels so much better. As a bonus my eyes feel so good, like there was stress I didn’t know was there is suddenly gone. I didn’t know my eyes could feel so much better from acupuncture, so I put a reminder in my calendar to go every Monday from now on!

AMAZING!!! I came across Source Empowered Wellness through Groupon a week ago. It took me a few days to book because I wanted to make sure this fit my needs. After reading their webpage and Unilocal reviews I booked my first appointment with Simone for Wed, 1÷13÷16 for Acupuncture. I called that same morning 30min before I wanted to come in and had no problem booking my appt. I have been dealing with heavy back pain for over a month now, due to a combination of spinal stenosis, sciatica and herniated disc. I am very happy with the treatment Simone has provided. She is very nice and explained everything very well. I felt soo good after my first treatment, I took two 45min. naps during the day and slept great that night, which I have not done since late Nov. I had another treatment this morning, it is not painful and it is getting rid of my pain and helping me feel better so I can move around and do more, pain free! I just bought a five pack because I am confident Simone and her staff will help me. I HIGHLY recommend coming here. You will NOT be disappointed!!!

Simone’s acupuncture and thai massage work is amazing! I have a muscle condition that causes tight muscles and pain and after my treatment –I feel amazing! My muscles feel better than they have in months. The space is very calm and peaceful too. I highly recommend Source empowered Wellness.

I had an acupuncture treatment at SEW while I was in town for work and it was wonderful! Simone is an extremely conscientious provider. I have had pain issues in my right hip for several months and wanted to try a different treatment modality. Simone makes you feel comfortable with the whole process and takes a thorough intake history and assessment of your medical issues. You definitely get treatment that is individualized to your needs. The space is warm, comfortable, and relaxing. I actually fell asleep during my treatment session because I was so relaxed. I don’t have much experience with acupuncture — Simone took the time to explain the process and educate me along the way. I did not experience any discomfort at all and Simone ensures that you are completely comfortable during the treatment session. Best of all, my hip is feeling great! My only wish is that SEW was located closer to me. I would like to return if I am back in the PB area.

Simone heals with a soft intensity that is unlike any acupuncturist I’ve known. Her mastery of bodily systems allows her to treat multiple aspects of your health in a single session, or approach a single ailment from multiple sides. She seamlessly integrates traditional techniques with innovative technologies and therapeutic massage, working with you to determine which modalities work best for your constitution. Her attention to the larger trends in your life allow her to complement your treatment with herbs, dietary recommendations, and stretching or other exercises. If you’re new to acupuncture and looking for someone to introduce you to its breadth and depth, or accustomed to acupuncture and looking for a practitioner who grasps the great realms of healing, Simone is a great choice. The SEW space is a warm and peaceful community environment that is great for receiving treatment.

I went in for an acupuncture treatment from Eva not knowing what to expect from a community clinic, and I have to say it was really surprised! She is incredibly skilled and gentle, I didn’t feel ANY pain from the tiny acupuncture needles and the problem I went in to solve (neck and shoulder pain) totally went away! I haven’t felt this good in a while. Highly recommend scheduling with Eva, she’s a pro.

SO I have never truly had a full on «Acupuncture» treatment, but this was a lot more than I ever expected!
I felt that I had stolen something because I had such a great deal!
When arriving at the location on Cass Street, there was a few happy people but there was a particularity attractive Asian woman at the front desk. «Hello, I am Eva, do you have an appointment with us this morning?» she spoke to me as I blushed.
I respond that I did in fact have an appointment and that a friend had gifted me with a free treatment. She respond back, «Great, here is this form, fill it out and I will be with you shortly.»
The place was very cool as I walked in, the space just opened up into the office/​clinic area and it was very cool inside. The summer heat has been torching me as of late and to be out of it and not to be sweating was great for me.
Once the form was filled out, this cute girl Eva was going over it for me and I was getting a bit nervous about this because I had to look tough to the cute girl and I this «big tough guy» and stuff, right? …Right? (gulp)
Okay, so I do not like Needles! I said it!
Once in the chair in the back of the clinic which is a really cool room!
It was slightly dimmly lit but enough to see where you were going and to see what was around you too. Chill music and I sat down and Eva asked me a few questions and if I was ready to begin.
She was so smooth and gentle that I had no idea that I had a needle placed into me. She was like an acupuncture ninja or something!
NExt thing I know is that my back muscle just relaxes and opens up. I could figuratively feel the stress pouring out of my back!
Then the thought of my friend who had purchased the gift card came to my mind, «What a sweet friend, she must had spent a fortune on me.» After a few more needles where placed in me, I feel asleep and relaxed completely. I mean zoned out! It was an amazing nap for me!
Soon I woke up with Eva nudging me, «Whoa, cute girl waking me up! Look alive Adam, hold on is this a dream?»
I then went to the front and checked out. I asked Eva, «My friend gave me this gift card, do you mind telling me how much they spent for all of this? It must had been like $ 250.00 for all of this.»
The girl just looked at me and smiled and said, «No, it was a $ 30.00 gift card.»
I was sold after that! I coming back! Thank you Eva!

Simone has a great background with wellness, acupuncture and acroyoga. She is truly passionate about the healing of others and she gives off a positive, calming and healing vibe. She is in tune with your body and makes you feel welcome and comfortable during treatment. Her needling technique is awesome so if your nervous or have any intimidation with this, have no fear, Simone is here!

Simone is flipping AMAZING. She will blow you away with her knowledge of naturopathy, herbalism and overall holistic approaches to wellness, and not to mention her gentle soothing nature and caring spirit. Whether it be to heal a particular ailment, align yourself to your most optimal state of health or to just become more informed about natural healing herbs. Knowledge really is power! And I can personally say she has definitely empowered me to heal myself with natural medicines. I highly recommend her.

Simone is an incredibly perceptive and talented healer. I suffer from chronic anxiety, and my acupuncture sessions with her are one of the most effective tools I use. She always makes sure I am comfortable, and takes the time to listen to my needs. She always needles just the right points, and her herbal medicine knowledge helped me deal with my seriously angry PMS! I recommend her to everyone I know!

Simone is wonderful! She really listens, her energy is calming and she is gentle, yet effective with her treatment. I appreciate her knowledge and expertise. I have seen several acupuncturists over the last 20 years and she really knows her stuff. I highly recommend her if you are interested in holistic healing.

Simone is a blessing to have on this planet. She holds herself to the highest integrity, practices what she preaches and sees the good in people. Thats when shes not needling, her skills and attention to details make me feel comfortable letting her treat me. Its an experience and a journey when working with her. When I started working with her ihad alot of stress and worry, but her positivity and belief in me was essential to my growth. I see great things for her.

Ive known Simone for over 8 years and I can honestly say she is one of the most gifted teachers and healers I know. She helped me start my journey of yoga through private therapeutic lessons to help me learn to work with my hip injury. Her presence is calming, grounded and healing. She even inspired me to become a teacher myself. Its been amazing to watch her continue to grow as a healer. Her integrative approach to therapy blends eastern medicine with western shamanism. She is an amazing acupuncturist and massage therapist who allows herself to be a channel for one’s self-​healing. I highly recommend booking a session with her!

I have gone to Simone for acupuncture for a couple months. She has a warm, bed side way manner. She is a caring thoughtful listener who offers amazing insight to compliment the acupuncture. I have felt improvement with each treatment. I will continue to visit Simone and highly recommend her service. Maria Boucher

My first yoga class was about 15 years ago, but I wasn’t really intrigued. But it changed since I met Simone. Now yoga is part of my life and I wish I could practice yoga with Simone every day. A few years ago, a friend of mine told me that she found an amazing yoga teacher. She said that her class is fun and her voice is so relaxing. It was just across the street from my place, so I gave it a try. Oh my god. I felt like a feather after her class. I even couldn’t do one single push up at that time, but I’m building up my strength through yoga practice with Simone and now I can do chaduranga. You may think it’s difficult and painful to build muscle, but actually if you practice with her, it’s fun and very enjoyable. She understands human body very well and has passion and love to help others. She adjusts your posture, so you really understands how to do the vinyasa in an effective way. I tried acu yoga with her as well. Her acupuncture during shavasana was very gentle and calming. I’m glad to see her growing and expanding as a spiritual healer and lucky to have her close. See for yourself!

I hate needles. I mean I really hate needles. I needed to get acupuncture because of an injury and I was nervous about it. When getting my treatment the acupuncturist did a great job communicating with me and making sure I was calm.
The whole thing went well, and was easy. The acupuncturist was very thorough and even treated the scar itself. I’ll definitely be going back.

I’ve known Simone for over two years. She has provided professional, relaxing, body freeing Thai massage over that time. When I started, I was subject to spasms in by back, neck, feet and lower legs. The spasms limited many everyday activities, like playing catch with my grandson. Today, they are gone. My body is more flexible and less subject to limitations. As a bonus, my digestion has, also, improved. I highly recommend Source Empowered Wellness.

Simone is a gift from above with her healing hands. She gave me one of the best massages of my life stretching and moving my body, releasing my sore and achy muscles. She is more than an awesome massage therapist, acupuncturist, & yogi. She is an inspired soul who gently helps you reach your dreams. 5 starts! As good as it gets! Highly recommended.

I’ve known Simone for years, and she is an amazing healer! I’ve worked with her in many capacities (yoga instruction, Thai massage, acupuncture), and she is one of the most present and connected therapists I’ve ever worked with. She really listens to what’s going on with the body rather than simply operating off standard protocols, and her gentle needle placement, point precision, and knowledge of herbs is outstanding. Her herbal recommendations and acupuncture treatments helped me a great deal with some low energy issues I was having a year or so ago.
I regularly recommend her to people I care about that are looking for an excellent therapist and I highly recommend her to anyone reading this as well. I can guarantee you will be in excellent hands, and after seeing her you will be telling all of your friends about her as well!

Simone is a beautiful energetic soul, and it is a truly wonderful experience just being in her presence let alone her acupuncture! Of course she’s a great acupuncturist as I have experienced when she was helping me combat the stresses of school and chronic UTIs, but what really sets her apart is her amazing positivity and ability to live the life she recommends and show you how to join in! Look no further if you need a Chinese medicine practitioner. Simone is amazing!
