Testimonials

“I’m overwhelmingly grateful and can’t recommend Solstice Natural Health enough!”  — JMC

“At the end of my pregnancy, my little babe was 5 days late and (at my wits end) with the threat of drug induction, I went to Erin for acupuncture induction. I am certain that her treatment helped me go into labor which happened the very next day! She’s highly recommended!!”  — LS

“Erin brings a vast knowledge of fertility and reproductive concerns to her practice, as well as an experienced and comfortable command of Chinese Medicine. She has an uncanny gift for sensing and identifying just the right points, and her application of needles is gentle. She brings a warmth and engagement to her appointments and throughout the course of my treatment we have tackled sleep issues, pain from old injuries, stress, and anxiety. I very much look forward to every appointment and feel, as a whole, far more educated, confident in the process, and in touch with myself than when I started. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”  — RL

“I’m 19 weeks into my pregnancy and feeling great. I know much of that has to do with the care and support I continue to receive from Erin. I’m overwhelmingly grateful and can’t recommend Solstice Natural Health enough!”  — JMC

“I have been under her care for a few months now and cannot explain in words alone, the help she has been to me. Highly recommend! I haven’t seen this much improvement in my over all health with ANY western approach. I feel more balanced. I have more energy, I have less migraines and overall less pain! I have given up my pain meds and am living a more active and healthier life. If it wasn’t for Erin, I would still be anxious, depressed, on pain meds and still in pain!”  — TR
