Here’s what our patients have to say … 

Eczema

My son who is now almost 4 has been dealing with excema since he was 5 months old. We had tried everything from western medicine, allergists, dermatologists, natural paths..and nothing helped except steroid cream which we do not want to use all the time or at all!
A friend recommended Mikaila and our world has changed. The herbs have cleared Quinn’s skin about 90%! We can’t thank her enough!
Everyone I see or talk to that has any health issue at all..I always tell them to see her and when they do..their lives are also changed for the better!

Peri-Menopause
“I came to Mikiala Christie for acupuncture to treat my peri-menopausal symptoms. My periods were becoming erratic in both arrival and duration. I had also begun to experience cramping and more moodiness. After 5 or 6 visits over a 2 month period of time, I felt strong and healthy and my periods continued to be regular, painless and easy for more than a year. I hope to use acupuncture to maintain my menstrual health through my peri-menopausal years.”

Colic and TCM

Posted on by

Chinese Medicine would argue that colic is neither a myth nor a fixed diagnosis. A baby that is colicky is likely reacting to an uncomfortable process of indigestion. Thinking about how small their stomachs are; about the size of their fists, it is not hard to imagine that even a small gas bubble is very uncomfortable. Continue reading→
