Christina is amazing!
Best acupuncture experience ever. She turned this skeptic into a believer. I LOVE her office space.
After sustaining a sports injury to my knee, I needed healing and pain management. The treatment that Christina provided was very effective, and I felt heard, supported, and comforted. I trusted Christina's plan as she was knowledgable, empathetic and easy going. Christina appears to be someone who has found her life's work and is excited to share this form of healing with others. I couldn't be happier with my experience.

I have seen Christina multiple times for acupuncture and massage mostly for chronic neck and back pains but also nausea during pregnancy. Christina's approach to patient care is fantastic. She is calm and methodical. She really spends time with you to discover your symptoms and ailments. She explains what she is doing and is willing to talk you through her process and thoughts about your treatment. Her needling is excellent! I can say this after seeing multiple acupuncturists that if you are at all concerned about how it's going to feel or have fears about needles you should go to Christina. She has a wonderful technique that will dismiss any fears about needles.

Christina was referred to me by a friend for massage and tui na when I had an acute pain in my low back. Christina was willing to fit me on very short notice and her treatment made all the difference. She listened really closely to me when I explained my body's particular sensitivities, injuries and needs - and kept checking in with me throughout the treatment to make sure I was comfortable. Tui Na is SO cool. It's not like any technique I have ever experienced. It brought me joy! I will also add that Christina's professionalism is extraordinary and I have felt very cared for during all my treatments with her since. She is kind and knowledgable and knows how to put you at ease. I recommend her highly and look forward to getting acupuncture treatments from her as well soon!

I am recovering from my second knee replacement with lots of time on my hands so I am forwarding you information on my new favorite healer.
Last summer I quickly I developed a rapport with Christina Ness. When I had my first knee replacement last fall she came to the house on three occasions to give me relief from a drug reaction: hives. It worked. She was here today to relieve pain and swelling on my present cantaloupe of a knee.
If you are interested in a very knowledgable, competent, bright, compassionate acupuncturist, you might want to try Christina!Carol L., Petaluma
