I have been seeing Dr Holly for a few months now, and there are not enough good words that I could say about my experiences. All of my concerns have been addressed and handled through acupuncture, cupping and herbal supplements. Not only have the practices worked wonders, but Dr Holly is so accommodating, kind and attentive. The environment is inviting and comfortable. I could not recommend her and her practice enough.

Dr. Holly and Dr. Sandra have been lifesavers for me. They are warm and welcoming, and their clinic is beautiful!! They’ve treated me for a variety of health issues, including muscle pain, gallstones, vitamin deficiency, and hormone imbalance. Their care and service is of the utmost quality. They’ve accommodated me on several occasions at the last minute when I’ve had a flare up or needed a fast treatment for pain. They also treated my parents when they were visiting from out of town, and both of them loved the treatments. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for acupuncture in the St. Pete area!

They truly care about your healing path and progress, and take the time to share their talents and skills in Acupuncture, but also the many healing resources they offer beyond Acupuncture.
