Dr. Candise Y

I was a patient of Candise's for a brief period, but it was memorable in the best way. She was equal parts warm, knowledgable, professional, and skilled. My needs and complex health picture were well within her wheelhouse. I highly recommend her!

Candise is wonderful! I’ve been working with her as I’ve been moving into a new phase of life :) with some challenging health changes. I had been experiencing persistent back discomfort and related symptoms that were impacting my day-to-day well-being. Her acupuncture treatment really hit the spot and eased a lot of tension. Through her thoughtful treatments, she’s helped me find real relief and ease. She is incredibly thorough, kind, and comprehensive in her approach. Each session feels tailored to what my body needs in the moment, and she always takes time to explain what she’s doing and why. I deeply appreciate her ability to combine technical expertise with genuine care and attentiveness. Beyond the treatments themselves, Candise creates such a warm and supportive environment. She listens closely, is easy to talk to, and makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the process. I highly recommend her to anyone navigating symptoms that are affecting their quality of life and looking for compassionate, effective support.

I started acupuncture with Candise during a slowed and stalling recovery from a long-time, recurring injury. From day one, she took an exhaustively thorough approach to identify interrelated factors for pain, biomechanics, and lifestyle. She then used that thorough analysis to inform her approach to palpation and needling, while always being receptive to feedback and iterative when necessary. After only a few sessions, I was immediately experiencing explosive gains in my recovery. And after seeing Candise regularly for several weeks, I can say confidently that she's been an integral part of my recovery. I'm very thankful to her for what she's given me and strongly recommend her to anyone who thinks acupuncture could help them.

Candise is an exceptional acupuncturist. She takes great care in her intake process — not just during the first session, but at every visit. Each time I see her, she thoughtfully assesses what needs to happen through conversation, gentle inquiry, and close attention to changes in my body. Her treatments often include a combination of needlework, massage, herbal formulas, and general insight based on how my week has been, from muscular tension to digestion to overall mental clarity. I’ve worked with several acupuncturists and physical therapists over the years, and her approach is by far the most comprehensive and effective I’ve experienced!

Candise is amazing! I've worked with her for nearly a year to improve neck/shoulder/wrist pain related to computer use ("tech neck") and it's been hugely helpful for me. My treatments have included acupuncture and cupping, with supplemental massage. She is an *expert* and is always willing to share her knowledge to explain how and why she's working on a particular area. She's also very thoughtful and sensitive to my experience as a patient and makes sure that I'm comfortable with any needling that's needed. I trust Candise completely and always feel great after an appointment. But besides all that: Candise is a a warm, kind person who's easy to talk to! She's a great listener and really cares about her patients. I'm so grateful for her care and would recommend her to anyone!
