Lisa Porad Acupuncture

Upon your fist visit to Lisa Porad Acupuncture, you will feel immediately relaxed, aware, and confident that you are in the hands of a caring and knowledgeable Acupuncturist. Lisa Porad Acupuncture is convenient located near Mercer Island’s city center, which is a short and convenient drive from both Seattle and Bellevue.
Each visit begins with an active conversation with Lisa Porad, during which time she analyzes and designs the treatment needs of that particular visit, keeping in mind the present and long term needs of her patient. Lisa never uses a cookie cutter approach to treatment.
Lisa recognizes that acupuncture may be a new type of health care for many individuals, as it was for me, and is very informative and gentle during the treatment. She is always more than willing to answer questions, and carefully explains the steps of the treatment as the visit proceeds. I found her office to be not only tranquil, but also found the acupuncture treatment to be surprisingly comfortable and even relaxing.
It is difficult to explain the overall benefits that I felt form acupuncture, since I did not seek treatment for any specific injury or concern, but rather because I am in my mid-​40s and hoped that acupuncture would contribute to my overall well-​being. I was not to be disappointed. Over the year of monthly treatments that I received, I felt a sense of lightness and renewed energy. I found myself looking forward to my monthly visits, knowing that I would leave with a sense of energy and calmness.
During my year of visits, I began exercising more, eating healthier, and was able to bring my blood pressure to a normal level without the previously needed high blood pressure medication. I truly feel that much of what I was able to accomplish, to bring my body to its healthiest that it has been in years, was in large part due to the care I received from Lisa.
I highly recommend Lisa Porad Acupuncture. I could not have asked for a higher quality of care.
