Pivotal Acupuncture + Wellness

I developed some kind of skin irritation on the base of my scalp out of nowhere that was itchy and flaky and driving me crazy! I went to my doctor and he prescribed a steroid cream, that was the consistency of diaper rash cream. It was awful to have to put in my hair, and only worked for the first few days, so I decided to go to Pivotal Acupuncture + Wellness and see if Alina could help. We had an herbal consultation and she gave me an herbal supplement to take 2x a day. It has been 3 weeks now and the results are amazing — the issue has totally cleared, there have been no negative side effects like I experience with prescription meds, and I didn’t have to put an oily cream in my hair! Thank you so much Alina, you are amazing!

My experience with Alina at Pivotal Acupuncture was more than life changing. Not only did I learn so much more about my body and health that I did not even know, but I also learned there were ways of fixing my health issues that I had just figured I would have to deal with for the rest of my life. Alina takes extra time assessing every aspect of your daily living, past, present, and future health needs. She goes above and beyond to make sure that all of your needs and health concerns are treated properly. My most favorite part about visiting Alina was how kind-​hearted and reassuring she was. She always had an answer to my questions and made sure to make me feel at ease when I was going through difficult health times. I went to see her for my chronic hip pain, and left having that completely gone along with much progress made for my female problems. It was truly amazing being able to see how much my body felt better in multiple ways by such a natural holistic healing method. I have seen many other types of doctors for both my hip and female issues and haven’t made much headway that was consistent like this has been. I can honestly, I forgot what it was like to not feel pain until I started seeing Alina. Being able to finally find relief has made me more than thankful that I met her. I would recommend her 10x over to anyone that asks!

Alina is just incredible! The all experience at Pivotal Acuponcture is Great. I was in so much stress all the time because of my work, because of my personal life. Alina helped me so much to feel better. She can read my pulses, knows what i am felling and new exactly how to help me. I am recommending Alina and Pivotal Acuponcture to anyone who wants to get better.

Alina is very professional and knowledgable. She makes me feel relaxed and her space is clean and comfortable. She listens intently and is skilled at specializing your treatment for your specific needs. I will definitely continue to use Alina’s services and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Alina for the wellness you offer!

I’ve been to many acupuncturists and Alina is amazing. She’s very thorough, knowledgable and a great healer. I originally went to see her after a car accident and after I continued to see her for fertility. I always leave her office feeling amazing! You will not go wrong with her! I’ve told all my friends to go see her because she is that good.

I am delighted to be able to review Pivotal Acupuncture + Wellness. My expieriance from the very start was professional, calm, and healing. As I entered the office and the environment was clean and peaceful with the hint of essential oils in the air and Alina’s smile greeted me warmly. Obviously this was a great start to my appointment. Next was the familiar first visit to any new doctor portion, the paperwork! The interesting thing is that this is such a part of the normal medical routine that it actually calmed me further. Alina does a wonderful job of bringing Eastern Medicine to a Western culture in a way I think everyone can be comfortable with. Next we went into some Eastern diagnosis methods and discussion. With this information and your goals she then develops a plan for you. This typically occurs after your first appointment so she can do her research and tweak the plan to your specific needs starting treatment on your second appointment. I find her treatments to be relaxing and effective. If you have heard about all the benefits of accupucture or are curious about what they might be go see Alina! If you have wanted to try Accupuncture but have been afraid you can trust Pivotal Acupuncture + Wellness. Go see Alina! If you want to refer someone you think it could help but they are skeptical about Eastern Medicine, Alina is the one to send them to that they can trust. I have high regard and trust in Alina and I believe she has proven herself to be an exemplary professional. I’m not sure if I said this yet but, just go see Alina!

My experience at Pivotal Acupuncture has been great. I have had 6 treatments, over the last couple of months and Alina really knows her stuff. Over the years I’ve been to other acupuncturist and none of them read my pulses, needless to say I didn’t return to them. The thing I like most about Alina is that every time I have a question she answers it with the utmost professionalism and detail. I feel very comfortable with her treatments and know that she is taking my health in the right direction.
Thank you Alina!

I went to Alina with a dull ache in my wrist. I was expecting it would take 6 or 8 sessions to help but after 3 treatments my wrist and hand are back to 100% free of pain. In addition to the acupuncture, Alina took a lot of time to review my overall health and made recommendations for me to get and feel better outside of the reason for my visit. She is warm and personable and I will and have recommended her to anyone who can use her services.
I couldn’t be happier with my treatment.

My overall acupuncture experience with Alina Sepeda at Pivotal Acupuncture & Wellness was outstanding. From the moment you walk into Alina’s office, she greets you with a warm smile and hello. Her patient intake process was very thorough and demonstrated her genuine interest and concern for my current health situation. Next, she took my blood pressure and it was quick and easy. After that, she «read» my pulses on both wrists. This was a surprisingly very relaxing component of the treatment. She was able to diagnose physical, emotional and intellectual aspects of my life just by reading my pulses. Amazing, right? Then it was time to jump on the table and get needled with the actual acupuncture part of the treatment. Alina made sure I was comfortable during the entire time. She placed rolled up hand towels under my wrists so that I could relax better and also put something over my eyes to help relax even deeper. I rested with the needles in me for probably 25 minutes and that was the best part. In a world of constant go, go, go this was an opportunity for me to slow, slow, slow down. At the end of the treatment, I felt as if I had a full night’s rest. Thank you, Alina!
One more thing… during the entire consultation and treatment, Alina graciously shared her wealth of knowledge in regards to traditional chinese medicine. Not only was my time with Alina deeply healing and therapeutic, it was highly educational and insightful as well.
I highly recommend Alina Sepeda and Pivotal Acupuncture & Wellness to anyone ready to heal with the help of traditional chinese medicine and look forward to seeing Alina again for another treatment.
