As a licensed Acupuncture Physician, Ms. Ashley Upham sits confidently at the intersection of mind, body, and heart ready to untangle the stubborn mess we often find ourselves in. At my first visit, Ms. Upham placed her hands on my wrist to read my pulse. The sincerity and focus she spent listening to my heart-pulse for over fifteen minutes immediately conveyed the unique nature of her professional edification and training in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Through a course of acupuncture, herbs, and other treatments, many unfit pieces of the puzzle of my life began to seamlessly find their places. It is quite literal when I declare to you that my healing began the moment Ashley listened to my heart.
After my first treatment, I had felt more peace from my grief and less physical pain than I had felt in years. I was quickly transformed into a believer. After regularly attending weekly treatments for several months, acupuncture transformed me into a functional person once again. My migraines lessened in intensity and frequency within that first four or five sessions. I now average about one far less severe migraine a month. As for my depression, I drew out of it, finally being able to face my grief instead of being stuck in it.
A little over a year ago I had to go to the ER, I was having a hard time breathing, my mind raced with thoughts that never made since…I could go on and on. I was told to go see Ashley Upham. I had been told she was finishing up her schooling and was starting to see people and that I should see what she could do for me. The Very Best decision I have ever made.
I’ve know Ashley for the past few years now and she is amazing. She is such a kind & warm-hearted person who ultimately wants to help people. She has helped me cope with my anxiety & depression issues & I have seen so much improvement! I 110% recommend seeing her.
When my wife was in an automobile accident in January Ashley chose some essential oils for Donna to use during the healing process. They work very well in calming Donna and even on the site of her broken wrist. Her expertise and empathetic caring nature were so beneficial I am so happy to see she is sharing her knowledge with us.
