Jiv Daya Whole Health

LOVE going to see Taryn. She is very knowledgeable, caring and gentle when using needles. I have been to other acupuncturists, but I have gotten the best results since I started seeing her a couple of months ago. Highly recommend!

I’m no stranger to acupuncture. I don’t know the ins and outs of it, but I know it works, so shame on me for letting my pain level get high before addressing things.
After a year without acupuncture, I listened to my screaming body and sought it out. I took the opportunity to explore a new place — maybe something closer to my new home. I found Jiv Daya. I think I hit the jackpot. Yay me! :)
I feel strongly about connecting to the practitioner in healing processes — from the massage table to the hospital — so I knew I was off to a good start when Taryn started asking me lots of questions to get an understanding of me, how I process things, what my body was saying and taking that all in to make the best assessment of treatment. I was so comfortable and trusting of her that I was immediately able to share about things that aren’t always easy share. At that point, I had complete faith in her. Some people do acupuncture as a trained skill. That’s great, but I believe Taryn also has a gift … and she seems to be sharing a gift rather than offering a service.
By the way, she doesn’t gouge either. She offers sliding scale payments because she said healing is the priority. Bonus!
Despite having had acupuncture many, many times, I’m still horrified of needles, so when I say her process is pain-​free and gentle, believe me. :)
if you’ve never tried acupuncture before, Taryn is highly qualified (which includes gentle enough) to be the first and last acupuncturists you’ll need. She’s in tune with YOU, and when the actual process happens … the things that I was afraid of my first time — needles, pain — are not an issue at all!
If any of my friends are reading this, I’ll take a gift certificate for my birthday, Christmas, Festivus … uhm yeah… any holiday. ;)
Thank you, Taryn

About a year ago I had clogged milk ducts after weaning my son from nursing and knew I had to act fast to clear the clogs in order to prevent a nasty infection. I had tried everything recommended online (warm compresses, massage, etc) and was starting to worry when there was no improvement after a few days and I was getting more and more sore. I knew at that point that I needed help but was desperate not to subject myself to any invasive procedures, so I decided to give Chinese medicine a try first. I am a skeptic by nature and had no expectations one way or the other regarding the results of my treatment with Taryn, I was just desperate to try anything.
Taryn is the kind of person that makes people feel immediately calm and comfortable no matter the situation. She asked me several questions and listened carefully and then prescribed some herbs and gave me detailed instructions. Within a day of taking the herbs I was able to loosen some of the clogs with the assistance of self massage and with three days the clogs were gone and I was pain free. I was so relieved and so thrilled to have avoided an invasive and painful (not to mention expensive) procedure at the hospital! Since that time Taryn has treated me for other ailments both physical and emotional and I continue to be amazed by the effectiveness of her treatments. Her level of care, compassion, and expertise far exceed any experience I have had with a medical doctor. She will continue to be my first go-​to practitioner for a long time to come and I’m so grateful to have found someone I trust with my own health and the health of my family.

Taryn is a compassionate, intuitive, and skilled practitioner. She has a way of putting you at great ease while getting your mental, physical, and emotional history. I also really like that she is fine with questions (because I have a billion) and comfortably explains what she is doing and why she is doing it that way. Definitely go see Taryn whether this is your first time trying out Chinese Medicine or your 100^th. She is great!
