  • “Tara is an exceptional healer. She asks more questions than any doctor I've encountered and truly considers the holistic aspects of my health, rather than focusing solely on one issue. She listens carefully and brings a soothing, calming energy to every session. Each time I see her, I experience less pain, improved sleep, and overall better well-being. I highly recommend her, even if you're unsure about acupuncture or Chinese medicine. You'll leave feeling significantly better!”

    - Melissa

  • “Your expertise and encouragement made a significant difference in our birthing experience, and we are so grateful for your guidance.”

    – Rachel

  • “Tara’s prenatal classes were instrumental in helping invite ease into my body during my third trimester. She provides practical techniques for mock labor including breathwork, movement, and meditative visualization. Her yoga classes helped relieve some of the pain and pressure I felt in addition to preparing me mentally for the exciting journey of childbirth. I would recommend mamas in all trimesters integrate her classes into their daily practice.”
