Fatigue, chronic back pain and weight management
I started going to Myriam over a year ago at the suggestion of a friend.
After a recent move and in the throes of COVID, I was struggling both physically and mentally. I was contending with fatigue, chronic back and neck pain, anxiety, and weight management issues. Myriam is a true healer and is able to read your body at each visit to prioritize where to focus. Always leading with kindness, she utilizes a multitude of modalities from traditional acupuncture to shiatsu, cupping, gua sha, and essential oils. Myriam is innately curious and goes above and beyond to tailor her treatments to your needs. I am not exaggerating when I say that Myriam not only played a critical role in ensuring I got through COVID intact, but also significantly improved my quality of life. I am finally losing the COVID pounds I gained, sleeping better, and my back is feeling better than it has in years. My acupuncture sessions with Myriam are the highlight of my week. I cannot recommend Myriam more highly!

Allergies and digestive issues
My acupuncturist recently recommended Myriam to me when he moved. She has a broad knowledge of Asian therapeutic techniques and an intuitive sense of what will work with my sensitive self. After 10 years of regular acupuncture to treat anxiety, allergies and digestive issues, in my short time with Myriam I feel calmer, more human and more like myself.
Myriam even provides thoughtful follow-up suggestions (diet, exercise) making her treatments truly holistic.

Lower back pain and anxiety
Last year, I was looking for a practitioner for my teenage daughter. She was having lower back pains and feeling quite anxious about school. Myriam came highly recommended to me as someone whose gentle and methodical approach. The appointments were such a success. Not having gone to an acupuncturist before, my daughter so appreciated how Myriam talked her through everything she was doing and explained why it might help her feel better. There were never any surprises and my daughter always came out of the appointments feeling so relaxed, pain free and looking forward to her next visit! Myriam is very genuine and extremely knowledgeable in Chinese medicine. I would highly recommend her for anyone who is looking to alleviate any pain.

Neuropathy and arthritis
I have been suffering from neuropathy and arthritis for years. These conditions have improved in only one month treatments and I continue to visit Myriam on a regular basis for maintenance.
I feel more energy and strength.
In addition I have gained weight, which was one of my concerns too.
