Testimonials

I’ve had several treatments, and every experience has been a joy. There’s a very bright spiritual quality to Dia and I feel very relaxed and safe in her presence. Friends of mine that are studying at Emperor’s recommended her as both their favorite teacher and a great Acupuncturist. Dia was my 4th experience with acupuncture, and while I previously had found the experience interesting and invigorating, Dia actually helped with some recurring pain and other issues I’ve had. I look forward to seeing her brand new office.”

What an amazing experience, being treated by Dr. V. My girlfriend raved and raved about her, yeah right. Went to be treated and YEAH RIGHT can’t be made into to a bigger font for this to describe the experience. Very calming energy just resonates while first meeting Dr. Vickery. I am a very active, physical guy ( 90 mins daily hard yoga ~ 8K miles a year cycling) – so yes I know my body and how it should feel. And, most especially, how it should feel good. She communicates what she is doing and why. And yes, the best really is that she is right.

Because she carefully listens, thinks and just not treats makes it easy to understand just why you feel so goooood following your visit.

Maybe yelp will have SIX STAR ratings in the near future.”

Dr Vickery provides an above-and-beyond kind of care that spoils my expectations for other medical providers.

I’ve been seeing her for a little over two years, which have been extra-challenging for me with various, finicky chronic pain issues. I credit her with keeping me out of the ER on some of my worst days, and she was/is a big contributor to helping me get back to work after a year of disability. She’s helped me with pain, mobility, mood, digestion, allergies, sleep issues, and probably more.

In addition to the magic Dr Vickery does with needles and sometimes herbs, she really spends time with me at the beginning of every visit. So I update her or she follows up on recent issues, she asks and answers bunches of questions, and even helps me research some things. She appreciates and acts on feedback on previous treatments.

The office is a comfortable and relaxing place to be, and the business side of my visit is always very smooth. And sometimes there’s a wonderful therapy dog!

A lovely place to go and a lovely person to see for quality attention, caring, and treatments for whatever ails you.”

Dr Vickery leads the way in health care (all facets). I have had chronic pain since 1976 and have much experience with all type of MD’s, procedures and medications. I am forced to see my MD every 4 months for meds. I am very proactive with my health and Dia today has only enhanced and placed my body in some of the best stages of my life. I’m 61 and feel younger and so much better since I’ve seen Dia. Also, there’s a spiritual side in play today with much credit going to Dia and the entire experience (I.e., office, room, receptionist, zen music, etc.). Today I have 3 herniating discs in areas of my body (neck and two lower back). I as well have had debilitating pain in my arm from the disc issues. Dia is an amazing listener, calming, so professional and once she hears the today story she goes to work and knows where to place the needles and/or do some other procedure. I trust her 100% and more so than any Doctor, procedure or pain pill. The estimated 28 minutes (of acupuncture) is better than any massage or for that matter any other pleasure us humans have. Her rooms and the music that is played gives and leaves you with a calming zen feeling and of course, your body is in a cloud. She never pushes a subject matter or tells you must do something. However, she will give you so much of her valuable time and have deep discussions on any topic if you bring it up. We give each other wisdom. There is no doubt Dr Vickery has reduced my issues (even the mental ones) and has even helped me wean off some meds. She is a lifesaver, great person and the best acupuncturist out there. And yes over my 40+ years of pain I have been to all type of practitioners. IF she takes you as a patient you will be forever grateful. IF you’re doing weed, drugs, etc. go somewhere else. If your sincere and need help she might take you and she is always busy. It doesn’t get better than Dr Vickery. I appreciate, love everything about the experience and the person and am thankful and grateful I met her along my path.”

I only go in for maintenance. I’ve gone to her for strained ankles, stress related problems and fertility issues.”

I tell other people that Dr Vickery changed my life. When I first started seeing her I was suffering severe back pain and my back was going out, and in just over a year my back pain is now mild with my back rarely going out.”

I’m a walking, talking example of how well acupuncture works and that she takes the time to get to know and understand her patients.”

Provides loving/nurturing care, good listener, wicked sense of humor. Overall approach to health and wellness through use of herbs, needles and aromatherapy.”

It feels like home, a safe place – no judgment.”

I came in with a sleep-inflicted injury as an alternative to a western doctor who probably (would) make it worse than better. I walked out with a friend and partner in becoming a happier, healthier person. Her work is the best preventative measure one could have.”

She is one of the best acupuncturists and Chinese Medicine Practitioners I’ve ever met.”

I just will never be able to thank you enough for what is nothing short of a miraculous turn from hopelessness to excitement. Thanks, thanks, thanks. I feel great.”

This Testmonial has been long overdue. I have been going to Dr. Vickery for post-cancer care for almost a year.
Dr. Vickery is extremely kind, caring, knowledgeable, capable, calm, and professional. She is also very conscientious, and pays complete attention to every detail. She is a great listener and communicator as well. Every time I see her, I feel like talking to a family member. Under her care, I have not experienced much side effects of the cancer prescription I am currently taking. I had a couple non-cancer related issues. She was able to address them fairly quickly and effectively.

Her office has a nice zen like feel that puts you right at ease. Her staff are very helpful too.

I thoroughly enjoy my ‘happy hour’ every time I come in for the treatment.

I can’t recommend Dr. Vickery high enough. She is the best of the best. You will be very lucky to work with her!”

It is my great pleasure to express my deep gratitude to Dr. Dia Vickery. I have been a patient for three years receiving acupuncture services for chemo related side effects. Dr. Dia has demonstrated great knowledge of her profession as well as an uncompromised and compassionate personal touch. Therefore, I highly recommend Dr Dia Vickery as the quintessential person of service.”

Dr. Vickery has been such a blessing to our family’s health. She is a great listener and always has a solution to our health issues. My 11-year-old daughter has successfully been treated by Dr. Vickery for her anxiety. Dr. Vickery has given her tools and remedies that she can use before school and in the evenings when my daughter’s stress and anxiety levels peak.

Dr. Vickery has successfully treated me for about 4 years. From aches and pains, to digestive issues, etc. Best of all, I no longer suffer from hot flashes, irritability, and my heavy menstrual cycle is under control now- without the use of traditional drugs and hormone treatments.

Dr. Vickery has wonderful intuition, and has incredible knowledge in her field. We are grateful to be in her capable and caring hands!”

I have been a patient of Dr. Vickery’s since August of 2012. With her help in controlling the pain of fibromyalgia, I have enjoyed life to the fullest.”

Dr. Vickery saved my life! After many years of unbearable hot flashes, I found her. It only took 1 or 2 treatments & I no longer have hot flashes!”

Dr. Dia is a miracle worker who I have the utmost respect and admiration for. In less than a year, she has dramatically improved my quality of life. I first went to see her in April of 2013 because of my crippling back pain. In 2009 (2 years after a serious hiking accident), I developed back problems which interfered with my daily functioning. I was in pain every day. Then my back started going out so badly that I could not walk for a week to two weeks afterwards. My MRI showed that I had bulging disks and arthritis. My back doctor gave me a prescription for muscle relaxers and sent me to physical therapy. Well, after a few years of physical therapy, massages, and muscle relaxers and only minor improvement I was desperate for lasting pain relief. However, as a lifelong needle phobic, the idea of acupuncture scared me and I was resistant to try it. That was before I met Dr. Dia.

Dr. Dia is like a gentle wizard with needles. She uses a process called “gentle needling” which amounts to me feeling no anxiety or pain during my treatments. She has a calming presence and plays spiritual music in her treatment rooms which is very relaxing. Her office is a peaceful oasis where I melt into the table while a heating lamp and magical heating oil surround me in a warm cocoon. Going to my acupuncture appointments is like a spa day for me. I practically fall asleep on the table and I always leave in a relaxed state of mind.

The biggest selling point for Dr. Dia is that I have seen dramatic results from her treatments. In April of 2013, when I first went to see her, my back was going out once a month. Now my back hasn’t gone out in 9 months. Before, I would wake up each morning in pain. Now I wake up each morning pain free. I’m hiking, going to the gym regularly, and even skiing again. These are activities I wouldn’t have dreamed about being able to do before without being in serious pain afterwards. In addition, she has successfully treated me for other debilitating ailments including anxiety and vertigo.

I have never met another health practitioner like her. No one cares more about their patients than she does and no one takes as much time with their patients as she does. Each time I go to see her, before my actual treatment we sit and talk about my current health issues and any concerns I have. These talks always put me at ease and make me feel comfortable in her extremely capable hands. She adjusts the treatments depending on how I am feeling and doing that day! Who could ask for anything better?

I cannot contain my excitement about this amazing healer. Thanks to her, I have my life back and am healthier than I have been in years!”
