I first started seeing Michael years ago (back when his office was called Sassack Family Acupuncture) when I was suffering from symptoms related to my MS. I wasn't expecting much from the treatments, which made it even more exciting when I got such great results. It did take many months of regular visits, but I am happy to say that my condition has been in complete remission for several years! I go back to get "tune-ups" every so often and those have kept things stable for me. Along the way, he's also helped me with frozen shoulder, headaches, and TMJ pain, all with great results. Michael's compassion and services truly were a "game-changer" for me. I can't recommend him highly enough :)
We’re so glad we had Karissa as our doula. I truly could not have had the unmedicated birth I so badly wanted without her. Through a very rough pregnancy she was a great source of support. She was such a huge help creating our birth plan. My husband was so grateful to have Karissa in the delivery room with us. She would provide pain relief tips, help communicate with nurses and doctors, answer questions we had when nurses weren’t present. So my husband didn’t have to and could just focus on me. She also captured amazing photos for us that we would have never had without her there. Overall cannot recommend having a doula enough. Especially for first time moms. And especially if you have the opportunity to work with Karissa!
