Chandra Scofield Acupuncture & Wellness

So to be Honest I picked Chandra because she has the same name as my cousin and lordy am I glad !!! Chandra is so down-​to-​earth, honest and straight to the point. No New age gimmicks or fake sudo yuppie crap. I felt at ease and comfortable right away. I went to Chandra to address how stressed I am and also feeling pretty fatigue theses days. Instead of treating me like a «traditional doctor «and just shoving pills down my throat, she wanted to get to the root of the problem and went through a very extensive list. The list consist of my family history, my lifestyle, how much sleep I get, water intake, my work and even my poo !!! Yes, very detail and I very much appreciate that. I have done 3 treatments with Chandra and I am seeing the results everyday. Thanks Chandra for your work! I am a true dedicated patient now.

Already feeling better after a treatment today with Chandra. I was feeling a bad sore throat, head ache and sinus issues. Chandra’s needle placement seems impeccable. I almost fall asleep every time I get treatments from her. It’s warm, quiet with really nice ambient music. I decided to take Chandra’s advice and get a few Chinese herbs that she recommended to build my immune system. She has great advice, is really easy to talk to and has years and years of experience and education. So grateful!

If I could give her more stars I would. Chandra is THE most sweetest, educated and passionate person when it comes down to it. She’s helped me beyond words can explain. I came from the western medicine side of things and ever since I’ve been going to her on a consistent basis my whole body has been weened off of Rx drugs and I’ve taken the homeopathic approach. Results are amazing as long as you stay consistent and she will help you and encourage you to stay focused all while really feeling great after a session! Please see her!

My first time doing acupuncture. Chandra was awesome at explaining the process involved, putting my nerves at ease. She also explained what I could do outside of treatment specific to my goals (stretches, supplements, etc,). Very forthcoming and great at answering any and all questions if had. And of course my knees felt much better once I left. I will definitely go back and highly recommend Chandra! Thanks again! And see you soon!

I tend to go to acupuncture only when my back acts up and /​or I find a Groupon or Lifebooker deal. And let’s be honest, that always ends up being a pain in the ass. You always have to fill out the same paperwork and tell your story /​history for the 37^th time. Time waster and annoyance builder. Some acupuncturists are so hokey while others tack on dollar after dollar for what seems to be like every needle they put into you. Chandra is neither of these things.
Now, I’ve only been to Chandra twice but they have been amazing experiences. And unless she flips a 180 and turns into the exorcist or the Craig’s List Killer, I don’t see how my opinion would change. She has a warm personality, is incredibly down to earth and relatable (we talk about our pets and the Kardashians. Khloe is the best!) She actually listens to why you decided to make the visit and also asks questions to see if there may be an underlying issue or even see if something else may be wrong.
In addition to the normal needles, she offers electric stimulation and cupping. I’m sure you’d think, «hmmmm. All of these things are sure to be as much as my weekly paycheck.» Wrong. Not only is she insanely reasonable — she accepts insurance. WHAT?! Are you freakin kidding me? She also has an informative website which, to me, is a huge deal. I totally judge doctors, businesses and pretty much anything that doesn’t have a website or almost worse, has one and it looks like it was made in 1998 with Geocities. It’s 2014 for Beyoncé’s sake!
She does offer a wide variety of herbs, minerals and supplements. They may not be for everyone but as someone who is trying to veer away from prescription meds, I welcome it. I have a feeling if you’re not into it and just want to get poked with needles, she wouldn’t force you into buying anything you didn’t want to.
All in all, she’s amazing. Book an appointment now. Just don’t book too many because I still need to go.

Great Acupuncture experience!
Chandra has a down to earth, warm personality and quickly placed my nerves at ease.
I went in for stress, insomnia and shoulder/​neck pain as I have spent the last 4 months studying for an examination.
Although I was eager to start I was scared about feeling the acupuncture needles poking my skin. Thankfully, Chandra is a great Acupuncturist and I felt nothing when she inserted the needles. Furthermore, I was extremely glad for the cupping therapy, as I felt phenomenal afterwards. I would highly suggest doing this, if you have not. I will warn you that you will be hooked on the acupuncture and cupping combo!
The Office and Room (s):
The office was very neat, CLEAN, well decorated, and the ambiance was on point. When I walked in, I felt relaxed and comfortable.
Conclusion:
Overall, I was very impressed with my first experience and if it is not apparent, I am a repeat customer. Ultimately, I feel the effects of acupuncture and herbs last longer than a simple deep tissue massage or other type of massage. However, this is just my opinion of course.
I would highly recommend Chandra to anyone if you are a first timer looking for an Acupuncturist in the Los Angeles area. Chandra will put you at ease with any concerns you may have. Chandra will address your whole body as well as your specific issue, using acupuncture, cupping, nutrition and herbal remedies.

Chandra has been instrumental in my recovery. I have chronic back and neck pain in addition to recently being in an accident. Every time I walk out of her office I feel like all the tension has literally been sucked out of me. I feel more balanced, more aligned and much happier. She really takes her time with me and asks all the right questions so she can get to the source of the problem.
Her treatments address the the body as a whole. She incorporates the use of cupping, seeds, gua sha, and moxa (sp?) into her practice. It has such a calming effect on the nervous system and really helps w/​stress in addition to muscle tension.
Chandra is an amazing healer and someone I’d recommend to my friends, family, and everyone I know. She has a magical touch and a warm disposition and really makes you feel cared for.

This was my first time trying acupuncture and was nervous before my appointment. I would definetly do it again!!! I left feeling so relaxed and my back was relieved of the tension I’ve been holding for months. She has an ability to target the source of pain and relieve it in a safe and natural way. I would recommend Chandra to anyone who wants to try something that will actually work!!!

This woman is a magician! Once a skeptic, I am now a firm believer in acupuncture and all facets of Eastern Medicine that Chandra promotes.
The first time I saw Chandra, it was for an acupuncture facial. I was super nervous because I am not a fan of needles but a friend of mine had been raving about Chandra for months and I finally said I’d give it a try. Chandra was warm and welcoming. She was able to calm my nerves and the facial was both relaxing and exhilarating. Not only did I leave knowing I would be coming back, but I left feeling like Chandra was a close friend that I had known for years.
After that, I continued to see Chandra for facials and a few minor things here and there. She always has a solution to anything you throw her way. You have a little back pain — she gives you accupunture, you feel a cold coming on — she gives you herbs to keep it from coming, your skin feels dry — she recommends a natural solution and where you can get it. I started calling her my magician and little did I realize how true that was.
One day I mentioned to her that I had trouble sleeping and had bouts of insomnia my whole life. Chandra recommended I try accupunture for insomnia. She’d always been right before so I gave it a shot. After my first session, I felt amazing. She gave me some herbs and sent me home. For the first time in years, I slept 12 hours that night. I am a believer!
Chandra is not only a fantastic acupunture practitioner and esthetician but a lovely person and can make even the most nervous of souls relaxed and comfortable. Her knowledge of Eastern Medicine far exceeds anyone I have ever met (and I used to live in Asia… seriously — this woman is LEGIT!!). She is a treasure and I never hesitate to send anyone I know to her.

Chandra is one of the most knowledgeable and compassionate acupuncture practitioners I’ve had the pleasure of working with. She possess a deep understanding of Eastern Medicine and has and incredible ability to connect with her patients — both of which aid her in identifying root causes to health issues.
I came to Chandra for issues with anxiety, low-​energy, and lower back pain. During this first session, Chandra spent time going over my history and was able to identify the perfect treatment for me. My treatment included acupuncture, followed by a Reiki session, concluded by a recommendation for herbal supplements to assist in getting my energetic body back into alignment.
While I have only visited her this one time, I felt compelled to write a review immediately! I slept for 10 hours the night of this treatment, and over the last few days have experienced huge emotional shifts — feeling and releasing memories and emotions of things that happened long ago, that obviously needed to get out!
I feel incredibly fortunate to have found Chandra and will continue to seek her knowledge and acupuncture treatments on my road to healing — AND I will report back in a few months! She is truly a gift in her field, and those who do find their way to her will most certainly gain from even one visit with her!

I’m a tough critic by nature. So, when I choose to recommend a product, or in this case a person and her skills as an Acupuncture practitioner, I do so only because of how good she is based on my personal experience and the results. I have been blessed to be a client of Chandra’s for a little over 2 years now. I am so glad my Mother n Law recommended her. When I came to her, I was having a lot of pain issues with my neck, shoulder, and low back areas. I was skeptical of trying Acupuncture again for my previous experiences had left me not so impressed, to say the least. But Chandra has the best ‘touch’ as far as needle insertion I have ever experienced. With her depth of knowledge, and her intuitive personality I felt very comfortable right away. On top of that, she is a Certified Herbologist as well. She has introduced me to many helpful Herbal blends that have assisted me with relaxation, weight management, and sleeping issues. She is also experienced in the process known as ‘Cupping’. Wow is all I can say. The cupping has been amazing. Another, vainer issue I came to her for was my hair. I wanted to keep what I had left of mine. Well, I now feel I have thicker, better hair than ever. If your skeptical about trying this type of alternative medical treatment, but are intrigued by it; Then I highly recommend you give Chandra, and her entire array of treatments a try. You will not be disappointed. In fact, I know you will feel better in short time.
