Testimonials

“I needed to find an acupuncturist closer to where I live and I found East West – and I am glad I did! What a great team. The space is welcoming, the staff very professional and the service I received was top notch. Having come to SLO from the SF Bay Area, I had high expectations for acupuncture services and they definitely exceeded mine. I highly recommend!”

“Dr Haddad is great! She is knowledgeable and a good listener. She makes sure you have the information you need and is able to communicate it in a concise manner.”

“Niki was a God-Send! I was in an acute phase of my disease, and pain level 8 out of 10, when I called the clinic. East-West got me in right away and I started the first of my three session of acupuncture with Niki. She listened to my situation and understood my condition. We identified the areas of extreme pain and expertly applied the acupuncture needles. Within 48 hours my pain level was reduced to level 5. After the second treatment, pain was down to 3 and after the third appointment, pain level 1. I’m on my way to healing. I’ve had this condition for two years and have never been able to get out of an acute attack without radio-guided steroid epidurals. Niki and her acupuncture proved that my condition could be treated naturally. I am so grateful for Niki and the clinic!”

“Dr Niki Rarig is one of the most compassionate people I have met in my life. What a gift to have such a competent and skilled healer on the central coast. Where does an Acupuncturist go to get acupuncture? East West Natural Medicine Center. Dr Niki helped me with my neck and upper back tension and also with a rotator cuff injury. She used acupuncture, electric stimulation, cupping, topical herbal medicine and massage to bring my body into balance. I feel amazing after her treatment. Thank you Dr. Rarig for being there for me. It’s so nice to be on the receiving end of this amazing medicine.”

“I highly recommend East West Natural Medicine Center and Dr. Niki Rarig. I called East West when western medicine alone wasn’t helping me overcome an issue I was having. I spoke to a receptionist there that listened to me, really cared about what I was going through and I am so grateful. I had an appointment with Dr. Niki within a few days. Dr. Nikki is professional and prompt and her knowledge and support along with her help ordering labs when I needed them and keeping me updated on the results, she helped me through a very tough time and I am very grateful and will be returning again and again in the future. Thank-you Dr. Niki!”

“Dr Niki is the best around. I’ve received acupuncture and Naturopathic treatments. All have been helpful treatments. Highly recommended”

“Excellent acupuncture services, very supportive of holistic health.”

“Couldn’t have had a better experience. 5 stars across the board.”

“This is a welcoming and soothing facility, with true professionals who are kind and knowledgeable. Dr. Rarig has helped me heal my fractured ankle and is now helping my husband with his lingering pain after back surgery. Dr. Rarig used tens acupuncture as well as cups. After the very first session, my husband was without any pain for the rest of the day–first time in a month! The pain came back the next day, but milder, so we hope it will keep getting milder with each treatment.
Earlier, we had tried a different acupuncture facility that claimed to be specialized in injury pain, but it did not even come close to the care we received here. I highly recommend East West Natural Medicine Center.”

Shes a wonderful acupuncturist, very kind , sweet and very gentle. I will keep going to see her every month from now on. Very blessed to have met her! Thank u!”
