I received acupuncture treatment from Kathia in 2015 while preparing for and undergoing fertility treatments. I had read that acupuncture significantly increased the success rate of fertility treatments, and after 2 years of heartache and losses, felt that seeking treatment was one small way I could take my health into my own hands.
And now my husband and I are experiencing our first in late Winter 2016. :)
I really believe this is at least in part due to the acupuncture treatments. I found Kathia when searching for acupuncturists with a particular interest in/​focus on women’s health. Kathia is gentle, kind, compassionate, warm, and very knowledgeable. She takes her time with her patients and follows up thoroughly to ensure she is addressing their concerns. I felt listened to, completely comfortable, and well-​cared-​for.
I had never before received acupuncture and came to look forward to each appt as a calming, stress-​reducing retreat during an anxious time. Seeking acupuncture is one of the best decisions I ever made in service of my self-​care. I am forever grateful to Kathia for playing such an instrumental role in my health. She is a truly gifted acupuncturist and a wonderful person.

This is a review of the treatment methods and quality of Kathia Kirschner. I have been to over 15 treatments and have to say she is excellent at her practice. She listens and addresses each issue I have and I alway feel better. I agree with the other reviewer that she is compassionate, thoughtful and skilled. As good as it gets in acupuncture land!

My experience here was very professional, and Kathia is a very knowledgeable and skilled provider. Thank you Kathia.

I have never posted a review for anyone or anything but Kathia is such a gifted healer and kind-​hearted soul that I feel compelled to write. Kathia is compassionate, thoughtful, and skilled. She goes above and beyond what one would expect even from a skilled practitioner. Once I mentioned in passing that I wanted to learn more about acupuncture. The next time I saw her Kathia had a book for me to start my studies. Once as she was leaving for vacation, I again mentioned briefly that I wanted to start taking herbs and would set an appointment for when she got back. Before I left that treatment Kathia had written out what herbs to take if I wanted to start now and gave me her email in case I had questions. She is a generous, loving person, and I feel blessed to be able to know her and be treated by her.

I am extremely biased towards Kathia since I am her husband. But simultaneously, I can offer a perspective that no one else can.
As a person, Kathia is the kind of acupuncturist that really cares about you, she feels deeply for other’s suffering and does her best everyday to help people feel better. Similar to Doctors without borders, Kathia has traveled to Africa to treat and train locals where people would walk miles just to be treated by her. She trained a team of people so that the knowledge can be propagated in the poorest regions of the world.
She has worked in a community clinic, where people pay what they can, and where she needs to see a patient every 6 minutes. She has also worked in an extremely expensive spa, where a session with her was over 200 $. The range of her experience is impressive and she often sell herself short not telling people what she has done.
As her husband, and her number 1 fan, i want to share how special she really is. Over the years, I have seen her help so many people. I feel very fortunate to have her as my wife. And I think once you get to know her, you will feel fortunate to have her as your friend and acupuncturist.

Kathia is the kind of practitioner who is thorough, knowledgeable, and enjoyable to spend time with. I went to her for help with low back pain and felt much better at the end of the treatment. She used acupuncture points in my hands and feet and applying warmth to my area of discomfort. She put me on a plan of 2 visits per week so I will get better quickly.

Absolutely amazing experience. Katia encompasses all that one seeks in finding a great practitioner in acupuncture. She seeks to find the solution to healing on all realms of the human well being, physically, emotionally and mentally. She is warm, patient, kind and engaging and always spends extra time making sure when you leave you are happy and content. I saw Katia for a number of issues including back pain and IBS and my regular visits helped relieve a number of issues 100%. She is someone I would recommend time and time again!
