Testimonials
A Deaf Client, MJ, discusses her experience with Sarah:
At first I was resistant to the idea of getting acupuncture, but then I thought I'd see what Sarah had to offer. I loved it! One time I arrived to an appointment so stressed out, but by the end of the treatment, all my tension had vanished. If you haven't tried acupuncture, you should give it a shot. I know some people are afraid of the needles, but it's not really about the needles. It's about YOU and releasing your tension. That's what's important!"

“My experience with acupuncture has been profoundly moving and even, perhaps, life altering. Acupuncture has helped me relocate my own essence – my true self, my core being – and has continued to support me through a subsequent time of enormous uncertainty. Sarah has been an incredibly skillful, insightful, compassionate, warm, supportive, steady, balanced partner throughout this process. Her treatment plans have been inspirational and amazingly accurate.” Elisabeth
Ellen Shein discusses her sessions with Sarah:
I'm thrilled to give a testimonial for Sarah Rauber. She's such a talented healer. There are several reasons why I enjoy coming to see her. Of course her technical skills of massage and acupuncture are exemplary, but even more so is her ability to treat on a holistic level. Sarah doesn't just rush into a treatment when you arrive. She sits down and has a conversation with you, asks you lots of questions and always gets me to think about things and also focus on the positive things in my life. I've been to other acupuncturists who only focus on what's going wrong in my life (where is my pain, what are all my symptoms) and they rarely focus on anything else. But Sarah also focuses on what's going well in my life. I had never experienced that before.
Also she sometimes begins with a massage and then does the acupuncture so that I'm completely relaxed and serene. Her technique with the needles is very gentle. I've experienced other practitioners who are abrupt with the needles, which can be startling and painful. But I never feel that way with Sarah. She has a very soft touch. Also, she doesn't just rush through a protocol, but asks a lot of questions to determine which points are best for my specific needs.
Another thing that is so cool - if you want a getaway - is that coming to her home office feels like a retreat. It's very woodsy, and you can really relax and feel grounded and connected to nature. And her treatment space is beautiful and peaceful and it's easy to feel connected there. That's what I mean about the holistic nature of her treatments. I just love Sarah and I highly recommend her!

“Sarah’s compassion for the patient shines through in everything she does. I felt valued and cared for the minute I walked into her office. Her empathy and concern always guides her interaction with me, yet she employs logic as well as intuition to develop an effective treatment plan. When I started acupuncture sessions, I was unsure and a bit skeptical if acupuncture could help me. After a number of sessions, it became apparent that acupuncture was very beneficial for me, especially when compared to other more conventional therapies I had tried. I am convinced that a major part of my success with acupuncture is the direct result of Sarah’s ability to apply the concepts of acupuncture in a most caring and empathetic manner.” Connie

“I can still feel your gentle touch and total presence, both of which were comforting and healing in their own right for me. In your care with the fundamentals of listening to the pulses, finding the points and connecting with the qi, I felt your total dedication to me, your patient. You are a gifted practitioner and will be such a treasure for the deaf and hearing communities alike.” Wendy
“My original goals for treatment were to increase overall energy and to reduce a tingling sensation that radiated from my thoracic spine area around my left side to my bellybutton. Soon after treatment began, the nerve previously irritated by the thoracic disc became calm and the tingling stopped. My mental and emotional energy has increased markedly in the same period, evidenced in my ability to focus, engage in creative thinking, and maintain emotional resiliency.” KS
