It was my first and very good experience with acupuncture. I wanted to avoid a medical induction so I was trying to find another way. My doula has referred me to Mindy. It took only 1 session and things get started!!! So, in 2 days I was in labor very naturally and easy. Office is easy to access, the atmosphere here is calm and peaceful. Perfect place and good treatment!

I really love Mindy and as a doula I send her a lot of my pregnant clients and they are always very satisfied. I have sent her moms who had never had acupuncture before but needed a little help getting things started to avoid a medical induction and it almost never failed. With Mindy's love and ability to get the moms calm and welcoming many of my clients following their visits with her, experienced a gentle birth

I started seeing Dr. Mindy Boxer for acupuncture treatments in February. I was almost 39 and wanted to start a family. I had anticipated it taking a while to get pregnant and having to undergo potentially stressful and costly fertility treatments. But my husband and I found out in March that we were able to get pregnant on our own and would have our first child in November!

Then I started going to Dr. Boxer and had a whole different experience. The treatment rooms are very relaxing and spa like, not at all clinical like the others. Dr. Boxer also adds lots of nice touches, like tea while you're waiting and music of your choice while in treatment. She did a very thorough assessment of my health, including diet, sleep, stress, medications and personal questions to see how they could be contributing
