Sara Weinberg, M.S., L.Ac

I enjoyed my sessions with Sara immensely. Unlike any other Doctor I have been to, she takes time to talk through individual health issues and the best remedies you can try at home and with her. Never have I felt so comfortable with a doctor before. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

I always enjoy my treatments with Sara! She has helped me with multiple issues such as: digestive, fatigue, muscle/​joint pain and completely got rid of my migraines!!! Sara has a gentle touch and great knowledge to share! I bought herbs she suggested and they helped!
Thank you Sara!

She is kind and caring, but I found that for issues relating to my health condition, she could not help me.
She is more for pain management than digestive issues or constipation.

Sara is a lifesaver! More than a year ago I was suffering from painful symptoms related to fibroids. I also experienced frequent urination because the fibroids were growing near my bladder. This interrupted my life. A family member suggested I see Sara. Within days of my first visit, the symptoms subsided by 75%. The combination of the Chinese herbs and acupuncture helped tremendously and brought normalcy back to my life. Sara is very professional and caring of her clients. Her skills and knowledge were pivotal in getting my health and wellness back on track. I highly recommend her.

Sara Weinberg is the best! She diagnosed my problem quickly and came up with a solution that had not occurred to me at all. Treatment was always caring, sensitive and extremely professional. Sara is a warm and caring person and I am grateful to work with her.

In the fall of 2013, out of total desperation with new and extreme menopause symptoms, I sought out an acupuncturist. After working with Sara for just a few weeks, all the debilitating symptoms were gone. I was amazed by the efficacy of her treatment, which included both acupuncture and a combination of Chinese herbs (I know, they don’t taste great, but a bite of chocolate right after drinking the herb tea erases the unpleasant taste).
It was a rough winter — shortly after she helped me get rid of the menopause problems, I threw out my lower back and then had problems with my left wrist. Sara improved both conditions with acupuncture and massage.
While she was helping me with my various health problems, I greatly appreciated her deep knowledge and her willingness to share it without pretension; I never felt lectured and with each visit learned something about holistic healing of the body’s aches and pains.
Sara asked all the right questions to determine the exact nature of my health problems and was genuinely interested in finding the most helpful solutions. On top of that she has a gentle and warm personality. I highly recommend her services.

Sara was a tremendous support to helping me get my health on track. I was suffering from very painful muscle spasms in my neck and down my shoulders, and then a sprained ankle. Kaiser just kept giving me pain killers. Sara helped me with the immediate pain but more importantly, helped me understand the root of the problems (posture and stress) and how to make long term changes with my diet and exercises at home. She is wonderful!

I’ve been receiving healing from Sara for more than a year, regularly, monthly, and credit her (along with my infra-​red sauna at home) for turning around my health totally. a year and more ago I was struggling with exhaustion after a small heart attack. She gave me the support I needed and still need, and today I have the bounce back in my step. She’s a powerful healer and a sensitive intuitive.

I went to Sara Weinberg to help manage fibromyalgia symptoms and high stress, mainly tension, pain and sleeplessness. The level of diagnostic information provided was impressive, as were the varied treatment options– but Sara was able to educate me without my becoming overwhelmed. Not only did I receive excellent acupuncture catered specifically to my comfort level, I was given outstanding nutritional advice, the option of using dietary supplements, massage and cupping treatments, and an exercise and stretching regimen.
Sara is an amazingly professional and personable practitioner/​healer. Just being in the same room with her always helped me feel better, even before she started any therapies.
If you need an acupuncturist or knowledgeable alternative medical practitioner, get an appointment with Sara Weinberg asap!

Sara is very accurate in her diagnosis, very intentional in her prescription, and one of the most nurturing and warmest people I’ve ever met. I’ve worked with a number of health practitioners the last few years and Sara’s been one who I find the most ease with in sharing my personal and health issues. She’s seen me through some tough times and I’ll always remember her as someone who really helped me through it through her acupuncture work and her motherly spirit.
I started seeing Sara for a variety of physical and emotional issues when I was studying at Berkeley several years ago. I starting seeing her again just recently to help with mild fatigue, indigestion and other chronic conditions. Her acupuncture treatments have been very helpful in relieving my symptoms, but what’s been most helpful are the dietary and lifestyle change recommendations that she’s given me, such as addition of supplements and change of eating habits. Sara has a lot of experience and knowledge with food and diet, so I never hesitate to ask for more help on that end of things.
I love that she takes the time to explain the Eastern theory as well as the Western science behind what’s going on in my body. I love her warm and welcoming office space. And I just love every minute I get to spend with Sara. I’d recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

I have been working with Sara for less than a year for digestive issues as well as general energy level. Since I’ve seen her my digestion which has been chronically out of wack for 10 years or more has come into at least a pattern of disturbance. I love working with Sara. She’s got a wide range of focus which allows her to come at your health issues from several angles, which I love. I find that she uses her intuition and her training in perfect concert. I feel like we are moving together toward well balanced health for me, and that is invaluable. I can’t recommend her enough!

I highly recommend Sara Weinberg, M.S., L.Ac. I have been one of her patients since 2005. I came to her suffering from bizarre vomiting migraine-​like headaches. I would vomit off and on for up to 17 hours, and these episodes were happening two or three times a month. I was missing work, losing weight, and my hair was thinning out from the trama of these violent episodes. Conventional doctors couldn’t cure them. Sara has a razor-​sharp intuition into people’s ailments, and she tirelessly works to explore all possible healing modalities.
Sara quickly determined my ailment was digestion related. She gave me several different herbs, along with acupuncture. She gave some dietary suggestions that were not extreme or difficult to follow. The episodes began to decrease, and over year’s time they dramatically decreased. My hair grew normally and I re-​gained the weight I lost. I currently only get these episodes once a year or so, usually under very stressful situations or where I accidentally ingest food that is a bit off. I continue to see Sara, although not as often. She also works on relieving my minor knee and back pain, and has prescribed herbs for other health issues. I am a much healthier person, therefore a much happier person, because of her. She charges a very fair rate and never tries to pressure anyone into getting extra treatments that they don’t really need. In addition, she is quite personable and has a great sense of humor!
Once again, I cannot say enough good things about Sara Weinberg. Her service as an acupuncturist is amazing!
