DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT

At your first appointment, we will discuss your health concerns, symptoms, and medical history. Our assessment includes checking your tongue and pulse to help us form a diagnosis and personalized treatment plan.

We then use acupuncture to regulate and balance the Qi, or life force, of your body. Acupuncture is the gentle insertion of tiny, single-use, sterile needles into your body’s acupuncture points which is where we have the most effective access to your Qi.

During your session, we will also discuss lifestyle, nutritional, and supplement recommendations. You will leave with information that empowers you to be a proactive agent in your healing. Our integrative approach addresses the root cause of your discomfort while relieving the symptoms.

Sessions typically last 60 minutes, and the number of treatments varies depending on your health condition. Follow-up sessions will include a check-in about your progress so that any adjustments can be made to your treatment plan. Each session is tailored to where you are on your personal healing timeline.

Our treatments are personalized to cater to your specific concerns, ensuring that each session leaves you feeling better and relieved of discomfort.

Patient Testimonials

Lis takes the time to understand surface problems as well as what may be going on underneath. Along with treating acute symptoms, she was able to provide guidance in how I could treat underlying issues. She is fantastic at what she does, and is great for those of us that have seen a multitude of acupuncturists, or for people looking to try for the first time.

I highly recommend Lis Goldschmidt as a queer and trans-positive provider and brilliant healer.

Lis' business classes were super helpful in my post graduation freak out. She is down to earth, knowledgable, funny, and makes the class relevant to your needs as a new practitioner. I cannot recommend her and this class enough. The class gave me the confidence and tools to take the plunge and start my own practice last Fall. I continue to feel encouraged, inspired, and supported through her and Five Pins Project.

Paolo Flores Chico, LAc

Lis is amazing! It was just by chance that I found her, and I am so happy that I did. Not only is she the most gentle and caring acupuncturist I could imagine, but she helped me with a problem that no other doctor could put their finger on. I am so grateful for her help and admire her compassion for all people. I feel like a new person and am able to live a normal life every day. Thank you Lis!

Lis is a wonderful. My wellness has improved dramatically since she has started treating me with acupuncture. I am so happy that I can make weekly appointments. She is kind hearted and makes me feel calm, safe and centered. Lis is a great listener and healer. I would recommend her to any friend!

Daniel is genuinely a great person who cares and has a natural calmness about him. Glad I found him.

When I was suffering from severe chronic pain from late-stage Lyme Disease, Lis offered me a calm, healing space and helped me manage the stress of pain and illness. I experienced significant pain and nausea relief after her treatments.

C.L.

I honestly feel like my visits with Lis have changed my life - she has treated and helped in healing my body, soul, spirit, mind, & heart.

I felt very taken care of and was both physically and emotionally guided to a better place by the time I floated out of the office.
