Patient Testimonials
“My experience was excellent and I would highly recommend Maria and Sacred Space Acupuncture. Her depth of knowledge, experience and her intuitive abilities and insights get right to the root of the issues to begin the healing process. Maria is gentle, yet confident, and will make suggestions based upon how open you are to exploring all that can go into the healing process.” L.M. Los Angeles, CA.
“Maria’s treatment works amazingly well. She knows exactly what I need in each visit. Maria teaches medical Qigong exercises in the form of a prescription, and gives nutritional advice as well. She really turned my illness of Fibromyalgia around to where I have a working life. It’s really miraculous. God Bless her!” A.G. Los Angeles, CA.
“Several years after a very bad car accident, it took my doctors years to diagnose that I had FMS, Chronic Fatigue and whatever else they wanted to call what they thought I might have. With thousands of dollars in tests and treatments along with the many prescription drugs in me, I was still suffering daily. I was getting sicker, weaker, mentally and physically stressed. I had gained almost 70 lbs along with many side effects from the drugs prescribed to me. Finding Maria was a wonderful blessing. Her understanding of the natural healing arts along with her gifted healing energies has helped my body to begin healing and to continue to heal. Through the many styles of treatments she offers, my body was able to start cleansing itself of the many years of toxins it had accumulated. She helped me to be patient in my healing process. She reminded me of how it took a long time for my body to get in its unhealthy state. She gave me hope that with my dedication to heal, along with the treatments that she offers I will be feeling better in time. Maria was right. Today, I am walking without my cane and/or forearm crutches. I am prescription medication free. I am pain free most of the time, and I have lost 60 lbs. I still go into treatments with her on a periodic basis as needed. Her gentle application is great. Maria has passion in her work, compassion for her patients along with the knowledge about how the body is able to heal itself naturally.” E.P. Los Angeles, CA.
“I have suffered with the embarrassing and seldom discussed problem of the lack of urinary control for well over 10 years-ever since I was pregnant with my first child. After being told by my urologist that the only thing I could do was to take prescription drugs (which have horrible side affects), I decided to go to Maria for acupuncture treatments for a drug free natural cure. With Maria’s advice, encouragement and specific exercises, I can go through my day with greater confidence. I now have greater control over my bladder! Maria is a kind, caring and compassionate practitioner. I urge anyone who has a similar problem to go to Maria for help.” K.G. Los Angles
“Maria has been such a tremendous help to me in treating my Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. When I started seeing her a year ago, I was in quite a lot of pain and feeling very rundown. Her treatments have reduced my pain so much that I am no longer on pain medication. I have much more energy and am able to enjoy life once again. I would recommend Maria to anyone who is interested in exploring acupuncture as an alternative to, or enhancement of, traditional western medicine. It has truly changed my life.” S.G. Sherman Oaks, CA.
“Maria after our Medical Qigong Therapy session last week, my wheezing immediately subsided. I had been wheezing and coughing for 3 weeks and since our treatment I can now exhale without wheezing. I continue to practice the Qigong and breathing techniques you have prescribed, and I am feeling stronger everyday. Thank you for your focused attention and skill.” L.B. San Diego, CA.
“Maria, I just had to tell you how relaxing the “facial gua sha” and how much I loved it. I went out the evening after our treatment and my girlfriend made a comment on how relaxed I looked. The best part was she said I looked 5 years younger!!! I look forward to seeing you next week!” L.F. Chula Vista, CA.
“I have seen Maria for a variety of ailments and pain during the past two years, and she has always helped me feel better. Recently I had a minor whiplash injury with neck and shoulder pain, and after one treatment my pain was 95% better, and has remained that way all week! I want to thank you Maria for who you are and what you do. You are truly a healer.” R.T. Sherman Oaks, CA.
