Middle Path Acupuncture ( closed permanently )

My husband and I went to see Lisa for infertility reasons. Before starting treatment Lisa sat down with us and got to know everything about us and our bodies, immediately I felt like we were in the right place. We had been to other acupuncturists in the area and they didn't compare. Lisa is etremely knowledgable and confident in her work, as she should be. I am happy to say two months later we got pregnant!! We believe that without Lisa's treatment that would not have happened so quickly. Lisa is the best!! Megan and Justin more

After years of sleepless and restless nights due to stress.I was looking for a solution that did'nt involve medications and their side effects. My wife was being treated by Lisa for her allergies with great success and she suggested I see her for my Insomnia.The night of my second treatment I slept soundly and straight through the night which I hav'nt done in years and I continue to sleep well.I now to see Lisa in order to reverse the effects of years of stress so that I might continue to have restful nights.From my personal experience,if you want relief from allergies,stress and insomnia without the side effects of medications you should give Lisa the opportunity to treat you aswell.I think you will be surprised and delighted with the results. Pros: Flexible Appointments,Soothing Atmosphere,Effective Treatments,Lisas' Attentiveness Cons: I suppose the Pharmaceutical Co.s are losing out on some potential sales... Oh well. more

I was late w/ my second child and saw Lisa to try to induce labor. While I was on the treatment table I could feel the baby dropping. I went home relaxed and feeling like it had made a difference. 7 hours later I went into labor. It was amazing. Pros: very effective, good location, reasonable price more

I have been going to Middle Path Acupuncture for nearly 10 years. When I first began treatment, my health greatly interfered with my ability to fulfill the responsibilities of my day-to-day life. Little things like showers and doing laundry, felt like mountain climbing. I have had asthma my whole life and developed endometriosis and thyroid disease in my mid teens. As a teenager, I was desperate to have fun, instead of living in chronic pain. So I tried everything Western medicine had to offer. I saw dozens of the best specialists in Boston. I tried every medicine. Joined trials. Even underwent painful surgeries. I was a believer in the Western way, but I wasn't seeing results. more

I visited Lisa when I was at the end of my first trimester of pregnancy and was still feeling very nauseous all the time. I was desperate for relief. By the end of my third (of four) visits, my nausea was almost completely gone. Lisa also helped me resolve problems with persistent back pain and ligament soreness due to the pregnancy. I would highly recommend Lisa to anyone experiencing some of the more negative affects of pregnancy. more

I am open to trying something, but my time is valuable and I only do things I think lead to results. My work with Lisa is one such endeavor. I used to have allergies from April to August every year. After my first year with Lisa I noticed how much less the allergies were during the season. After two years, I feel 100% allergy free!! I am thrilled with the results and feel that things can only keep getting better. She has also been able to take care of muscle aches and pains from over-use injuries in one treatment. Pros: friendly, fun, good bed side manner. more

I first saw Lisa as a kind of last ditch effort to lose a ton of weight that I had put on very fast. Any doctor I saw had told me that either a)my BMI was fine, so I was fine or b)I was eating too much. Only Lisa believed me when I told her that I had, in fact, been eating less than ever and still gaining in puffiness. And only Lisa noticed the connections between my weight gain and the numerous other symptoms that my body was presenting. Four months later, after fully immersing myself in her treatment and health suggestions, not only have I easily lost most of the weight, my skin has cleared up, my hair has stopped falling out, my energy levels have skyrocketed and my brain feels less fuzzy all the time. Lisa has an amazing ability to listen and make connections and treat the whole body, something practically unheard of in Western medicine. more

I have seen 7 different acupuncturists in the last 11 years and Lisa is by far the most intuitive, thoughtful, detail-oriented practioner I have had. She treated me occasionally for 2 years for general well-being and then when I got pregnant I started seeing her weekly. My first trimester was incredibly difficult, I had issues with my adrenal glands and hyper-emesis, which Lisa promptly treated. After only 2 sessions my symptoms were mostly diminished. During my second and third trimesters she continued to treat me to boost my energy level, for mood issues and for recurring nausea. I saw her every week of my nine month pregnancy and am now the mom of a happy, incredibly well-adjusted baby boy. I absolutely recommend Lisa for anyone-pregnant or not! more

During my pregnancy I developed hip pain and rhinitis. I started seeing Lisa for treatment at 26 weeks and immediately began to see results. She also began preparing me for labor 4 weeks prior to my due date, which I believe helped me to give birth on time. I can't recommend more strongly the use of acupuncture during pregnancy; it's non-invasive, the treatments are relaxing, and it really works. more

I began seeing Lisa early on in my pregnancy for general wellness and to address chronic neck pain & headaches which I had suffered from prior to pregnancy. Having sought many different types of treatment before I can honestly say that my treatments from Lisa were the most effective. Additionally, Lisa provided me with insight into what was really going on in my body and what I could do to complement her treatments. She is very personable as well as extremely knowledgable. The type of acupuncture that she practices is highly effective. Pros: knowledgable, personable, effective more

I went to Lisa after it became clear that all my traditional western treatments were no longer working. Having never had acupuncture or any other non-traditional treatments I had low expectations. Within a short number of weeks of treatment I was feeling better and a few weeks later I was feeling better than I had in over 4 years. I still go to her and HIGHLY recommend her treatment. The lack of side-effects (unlike Western medications) is a huge plus too. My traditional western practice doctors are amazed. My quality of life has improved beyond measure. Lisa is also a nice, open and amiable person who truly cares for the wellbeing of her patients. Pros: Friendly, caring, effective treatment, flexible schedule more
