Nicole

“I have been seeing Nicole for treatment for the past couple of months. What a difference!! I was having a lot of nerve and muscle tissues, and basically living in chronic pain. I was always getting massages and finding I wasn’t feeling relief and if I did it was very short-lived. I decided to reach out to Nicole as she came highly recommended from the gym I go to. Knowing she understood my style of fitness and the demands on my body made me know I was in good hands! Wow. I honestly couldn’t speak more highly of her therapeutic methods. This style of therapy worked tremendously well for me!

I went from being in chronic pain to next to no pain. My range of motion has increased, my muscle function was back, and my pain was significantly decreased. I’m thankful I found a treatment method that works and a practitioner that executes it amazingly well. My body is feeling amazing, and I will continue to see Nicole proactively to manage any flair-ups so I am always in tip-top shape. Highly recommend.”

“Prior to going to Nicole, I had a horrible experience with acupuncture and I wanted nothing to do with it again. So many people told me how amazing she was and I finally got the nerve to go check her out & wow were they RIGHT!! After just one treatment I noticed instant results!! This girl has magic hands and such a strong understanding of the body. Whether you are an athlete or just looking for some relief in everyday life, she is your girl! She is a miracle worker- I literally look forward to my appointments because I know I will walk away with results. I cannot thank Nicole enough for helping me move so much smoother, and the tips and advice outside of her clinic as well! She genuinely cares about her patients and has the biggest heart within her clinic and in the Okanagan community. I promise you won’t be disappointed, if you have been thinking about trying it, do yourself a favour and book in with her ASAP!!”

“My name is Clint Pratch and I am a happy customer of Nicole Albertson and have been for many years. She has saved my body more times than I can count. I am a very active individual in the world of fitness and sport. Nicole’s style of acupuncture is amazing! She has saved my left shoulder from long-term injury a few times. She also has made my legs feel brand new several times. I highly suggest if you are needing help with an injury or tightness that you go see her! Not only is her style and practice amazing, but she is also an amazing human! She will make you feel comfortable within minutes of arrival. You will feel like she is a long-lost friend. I am, like so many others that I have referred to her a major fan! I always fall asleep there and never want to leave! Lots of these (!) But for good reason! KOA Acupuncture is where you will find her and find her you must! If you are reading this and have a human body, you will find relief in seeking out Nicole and her practice. You will not regret it!”

“After a surgery that left me with impaired sciatic nerve damage, I tried massage, physiotherapy and an osteopath. I had a lot of nerve pain, cramping and ongoing discomfort. The treatment that has worked best for me has been motor point acupuncture. I can’t imagine my life without these treatments. I can’t believe how instant and effective the treatments have been.”

LOGAN

“After struggling with chronic lower back/SI joint pain for over 8 years, I finally decided to give acupuncture a try. I now wish I had tried it sooner! After just two treatments my chronic pain was barely noticeable, and with a few more treatments (and some home strengthening exercises) I was completely pain-free after less than two months of therapy. Other modalities have been beneficial to provide short-term pain relief for me, but this is the first time I have had relief that has lasted. Logan was kind, professional and knowledgeable (I asked a lot of questions and he graciously explained everything to me!). I am happily back to some activities that I had stopped due to my back pain, very thankful to have discovered acupuncture and the team at Koa, and highly recommend it to anyone.”

“I have been seeing Logan for just over a year. At my first appointment, I was very nervous because I do not like needles. Logan was professional and put me at ease by explaining everything he was doing and why. I have been dealing with a lot of pain in my neck and numbness in my arms. Logan is one of the only people who can help relieve any symptoms. I highly recommend that you book with Logan.”

Eliza

“When I first started seeing Eliza for treatment, my mind and body seemed to be in shambles due to physical an mental stress, anxiety, high cortisol levels, and numerous reoccurring injuries. Just like many others I too was skeptical of acupuncture just due to the insertion of needles in sensitive areas of the body. However, Eliza’s calm and gentle demeanour minimized any of those anxious thoughts before even feeling the soft placement of her technical ability with the needles. After the first few appointments I was able to notice major boost in energy and overall mood from the treatments that helped combat all of which I was going through. Physically I began to feel restored and I sought after her treatment as part of my life’s own new routine for self care. Eliza was able to provide me with a better understanding of Chinese Medicine through experience and longevity of my very own health and wellness. I am happy to hear she will be able to help others along their journey through the same methods that she had shared with me over the course of a year.”
