“I’ve been seeing Melissa for acupuncture for several years, and she is truly exceptional. Warm, knowledgeable, and highly professional. I would strongly recommend.”

“I have been a patient of Melissa’s for almost 10 years and can’t recommend her enough!! In that time she has guided me through countless things - from fertility support, sciatica, allergies, digestive issues - you name it, she has likely helped me with it! She’s truly an angel on earth with the most calming presence and understanding nature. You’re guaranteed to feel heard and helped under her care. I can’t live without it!”

“After several years of invasive fertility treatments, coupled with drugs that altered my mood and body, I gave up on “science.” I was a believer in statistics and data, but science failed me. I opened my mind to the idea of acupuncture as a means of getting my sense of self back. If a pregnancy came along, that would be an unexpected gift. When I met with Melissa, she was warm, compassionate, and asked questions about my body and overall health that made sense. She recognized my initial worries about acupuncture and put them at rest. I never once felt unsure, uncomfortable, or unclear when Melissa treated me, as I had with Western doctors. Acupuncture relaxed me and ultimately (coupled with Melissa’s dietary advice), allowed my body to become pregnant! I saw Melissa until my 8th month of pregnancy and I truly believe, she is a monumental reason why my son James is here. My husband and I do not have words enough to thank her.”

“I have met and worked with many acupuncturists in the past 15 years but really never found the right one. You by far have surpassed my needs. Your gentle manner, your expertise and your kindness pulls the entire physical and emotional process together. I always leave your table feeling like a new women and I look forward to our next session where you, open my meridians, make me feel balanced and clear my entire universe like no other practitioner has. You have introduced me to points that I never knew existed and I have learned what “a well being” treatment is.

Thank you for opening your practice in Fairfield for the settings are nurturing and comforting and I enjoy my time there. You are simply the best!”

“Two years ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I started going to The Healing Point for acupuncture immediately and have done it in conjunction with my other treatments. After my surgery it became my life line to regaining my strength and energy. I still go regularly because I love it and it helps to strengthen my immune system. Melissa is an excellent acupuncturist, always taking the time to listen to how I am feeling and what my specific needs are for each visit.”

“I have been receiving acupuncture for several years. I LOVE receiving acupuncture. I feel that it helps me not only on the physical level but on a mental and spiritual level as well. Melissa’s knowledge and intuition leads her to put the needles in not only for physical ailments but also for emotional and spiritual. I like to go as often as I can, sometimes 2x per week.Acupuncture helps me with water retention, digestion, liver strengthening and detoxification and hormonal balancing on a physical level. The treatments also help with the energetic balance on a mental and spiritual level. I have found it to be very grounding and keeps my connection to the universe flowing.I hope I will always have acupuncture from Melissa in my life.”

“Acupuncture with Melissa has helped me with a variety of things - stress, muscle tension, focus at work, acne AND wrinkles. She has a wonderful bedside manner and I love that she can adapt my sessions so easily and effectively.”

“My lungs and breathing have been so much better! I think my whole body overall functions more efficiently with the stimulus of acupuncture each week.”

“I first sought acupuncture as a natural remedy for my infertility, and visited a handful of recommended acupuncturists in Connecticut. Cindy was heads and tails above the rest - in her knowledge, technique, and personal interest in my situation. Unlike other acupuncturists, Cindy strives (and succeeds) in treating the whole person - consulting about diet, exercise, and emotional issues which influence the health and well-being of the patient. Needless to say, I am three weeks away from giving birth to my first child, which I am sure is in part due to Cindy’s meticulous and thoughtful care.”

- Anthea

“I decided to try acupuncture along with the conventional treatments for infertility. Melissa was recommended by a close friend struggling with infertility issues as well. Melissa is an excellent acupuncturist. She is very knowledgeable about infertility and IVF. She makes the client feel very comfortable, relaxed and informed. Melissa takes exemplary care in evaluation the client’s issue and choosing the appropriate treatment. She was a mentor and a motivator for me throughout the process of trying to get pregnant without whom I could not have done it. We had success with our first IVF round and our son was born in November 2018. I highly recommend Melissa to anyone struggling with fertility issues.”
