“Before I began treatment at the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine with Kathryn I was starting to feel hopeless, like I would have to live with my condition of chronic urinary tract pain and give up most of the things I enjoy because of it. That didn’t feel right, especially not at my young age of twenty-four, but that is how the many doctors I went to see about this made me feel. They proposed no solutions other than antibiotics, which relieved pain temporarily but then seemed to worsen my condition. Not only the acupuncture, but also the holistic approach to your health that I learned from Kathryn helped me to not only better my condition, but also shed my sense of despair concerning it. Even talking about what you experience and having someone so attentive and intent listen to you, I believe, helped me a lot. I still go to acupuncture when I can and try to keep in mind advice Kathryn gave me. At the cost of sounding dramatic, the months I spent attending frequent sessions with Kathryn truly lifted me out of a bad phase of my health and life, and I have only the utmost gratitude and respect for that.

“I felt comfortable with Kathryn right away. She is simultaneously professional and easygoing, and a talented practitioner to boot. She listens deeply, knows how to diagnose and get right to the heart of the matter, and makes the needle insertion nearly painless. I trust Kathryn completely and know she always has my best interests at heart. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family. I wish she would stay in New York!

“First of all I have to say that I just love going to my acupuncture treatments. I find the needling to be so calming and enjoy feeling the different impulses move through my body. My experiences with Kathryn Herrera were exceptional and positive.

I have become so much more conscious of my body and what is going on physically as well mentally. Through discussions, questions and treatments I started to become more in tune to the fact that I had bloating and discovered I was lactose intolerant. Until I worked with Kathryn I was totally unaware that I even suffered from bloating.

The acupuncture treatments have greatly helped me relax and have been a great connection between my health and my yoga practice, which has been part of my life for many years.

Thanks to acupuncture and the prescribed herbs I was able to start sleeping and dreaming on a very healthy and normal level where as I hadn’t in the past. I often suffered from great insomnia and now I don’t. Because of acupuncture I am so much more aware of health issues as they arise. I would greatly recommend Kathryn for acupuncture treatments, her medical and acupuncture knowledge applied to our health is amazing and she really understands how to treat illness and disease through acupuncture and herbs.

During the treatments with Kathryn I always felt that the physical treatment brought me to a state of bliss. I always felt spiritually connected during the rest time you get with the treatment, it’s definitely nirvana or very much like the savasana, the final rest you get in yoga. Kathryn thanks so much for the wonderful professional care and treatment you gave to me during my sessions with you.

“Acupuncture has changed my life. But it wouldn’t have done so if I hadn’t been lucky enough to find an amazing practitioner. Kathryn Herrera is not only extremely gifted in the way she handles the needles with care and precision so as to minimize any discomfort; she has the perfect reflexes in knowing how to take care of each individual and thoughtfulness in attending each patient’s needs. Anyone who is in her hands knows that she has not only the knowledge and the experience, but also this incredible intuition to know exactly what one needs at a particular time. Kathryn is present, attentive, professional, and generous in all ways with her patients. With her fresh, radiant and grounded energy, Kathryn embodies her practice, and one can really tell that she is exactly where she should be. As a patient I am just so grateful to have had her as my host in the world of acupuncture, and bless anybody who understands how acupuncture can improve one’s life in every dimension that they may find themselves into Kathryn’s hands! With deep gratitude and a great Chi.
