Palmgren Acupuncture Center

I have been seeing Lynne and/​or Nick for about 2 years and it has been a godsend. A very healing environment — highly recommend.

I’ve been visiting Nick for almost a year for acupuncture services, and I highly recommend him. He’s helped me with a number of ailments: anxiety, shoulder pain, and now pregnancy discomfort. In particular he helped me through swelling, nausea, tiredness, and back pain during my first trimester of pregnancy. I like him so much that I recommended him to a friend for depression/​anxiety, and she now sees him weekly too.
Nick is knowledgeable, professional, and has a nice demeanor about him. He’s become a friend/​therapist over time, and I always feel better after seeing him. Two thumbs up for Nick and his services!

Lynn was recommended to me by one of her former teachers at the acupuncture college downtown. I like her and I think she has helped me quite a lot. She is young-​ish, settled in this area, and shares her practice with her husband, so I feel confident they are here for the long haul (my previous two acupuncturists retired and/​or left town).
Lynn has treated me primarily for issues related to menopause and for a sore shoulder/​bicep issue of mysterious origin. She has also given me a lot of really excellent advice on nutrition, including a list of recommended foods and teas. I feel better overall although some issues are very slow to resolve (probably because I don’t always follow all of her advice all the time! Hahah I am so human…).
Her office environment is very pleasant, and she is caring and thoughtful in how she makes sure I am comfortable there. No judgment, just sincere kindness and support. Very holistic approach — asks about stress, emotional experiences, as well as physical symptoms. Treatments are very relaxing. I like going for a treatment late in the day, going home for a quiet evening, and then having an incredible night’s sleep.

Nick worked on me, and relieve my pain! He was very gentle, didn’t even know when the needle went in. Very thorough and sensitive to your needs. Thank you again!

After much skepticism I decided to give acupuncture a try. For years I’ve dealt with sensitive skin issues including hives, eczema, and rashes. Every dermatologist I visited gave me creams, steroids and antibiotics to combat the issue. These were never a solution to my skin problem. Feeling defeated I decided to go down an alternative route as a last hope.
Lynn empathized with my issue and confidently told me would help me get it under control. My skin problems were not the only thing that was minimized but my stress level too! She was a positive influence to get my overall health back on track.
Lynn is the real deal, no gimmicks! Of course if you have crummy insurance coverage like me, these procedures are costly. I did my shopping and Palmgren is very comparable to other clinics in the area. If you can afford it, I highly recommend it.

After reading the reviews, I thought I would give acupuncture a try. It was my first time and I was very open minded. Lynn seemed nice. Went in told her my symptoms she diagnosed me with liver congestion applied acupuncture and sold me a treatment. As soon as I left there I felt sick which I mentioned to her she said I should feel better the next day but instead felt worse (got heart palpitations, couldn’t breathe) Unfortunately this not only cost me $ 200. but also a trip to the ER– I got severely sick, felt I was dying. When I left her a message of how bad I was feeling, she never followed up to see how I was doing nor to offer me an apology. This experience made me feel very skeptical and paranoid about alternative treatment.

I recently has a facial rejuvenation treatment from Lynn. I could see a visual difference with my skin. I enjoyed the soothing environment. Lynn’s knowledge and technique was comforting and stimulating. A wonderful treatment!

Lynn is wonderful — thoughtful, caring and effective. I would highly recommend her office. I have been going for various issues that have been a problem for many years and think her techniques are proving to be very helpful.

I had my first session with Lynn recently and it was wonderful! She was so attentive and thorough and spent a lot of time getting to know me and my particular concerns. As it happens, I happened to have a bad migraine and she asked lots of great questions and told me that some of the needles she was using were specifically in migraine points and I’m thrilled to say that when I got up from her table, my migraine and the accompanying nausea were completely gone! Her manner is soothing and authoritative and she really wants to get to know you. I can’t wait for my second session with her.

Lynn is a fantastic practitioner and a true professional. I have received acupuncture treatments on numerous occasions by different practitioners in the past. Ms. Palmgren’s treatment protocol has been the most efficacious. The positive results have been measurable. She treated me for abdominal issues. I experienced relief/​cure for a chronic pain. Her western sensibilities mesh seamlessly with her vast understanding of Chinese medicine. If you are new to Chinese medicine Lynn is a definite go to person, same if you are looking for a new practioner.

Lynn is great! I saw her regularly to help deal with some thoracic and cervical spine issues, including numbness and some pain. She helped me greatly deal with the pain and get on the road to recovery. I wish I could see her everyday!
Her soft spoken, friendly demeanor puts you at ease right away. It was my first time with acupuncture and I loved it! She was almost like a psychologist for me… in order for her to do her job, she wants and needs to know how you are, and how things are going. Using her holistic approach, and her genuine desire to help me get better, I had positive results. Her rates are relatively affordable (cheaper than others I found) and the level of care very high.

Lynn has helped me recover from an injury to my elbow. Her gentle touch and knowledge in what the body needs to heal helped me feel relaxed and to trust in her skills. I left her office with improved range of motion and less pain! In fact, I walked out if her office with more understanding of Chinese medicine than I expected!

I was struggling for weeks, multiple times a year with painful slowness in my GI tract– Lynn provided an herbal formula that had me moving in less than two days. Thanks Lynn! It’s not a fun topic, but it’s great when it works!
