On my 2nd visit to Sarah, I told her "You're My Hero". I'd been suffering from a pinched nerve in my neck/shoulder for weeks and 36 hrs after my first visit, my pain had decreased by 50%. Day by day I'm feeling so much better. Sarah is personable, kind and knowledgeable. I'm so pleased I connected with her and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her. She is fantastic!

Sarah's expertise with Chinese herbs is incredibly supportive. I have received care from numerous TCM practitioners and Sarah is one of the best!

I found Sarah to be open minded and non-judgemental, able to weave ancient practices for whole body health with my own efforts to help my condition improve.

Sarah used precise combinations of Chinese herbs and acupuncture to treat my intense shoulder pain, its root cause and my general health. At each appointment she altered my herbal mixture depending on my feedback and what she noted in the pulses at my wrists. She carefully tailored my acupuncture treatments according to how comfortably I could position my shoulder that day.

I felt better with each treatment. After my fifth and final appointment I felt like dancing all the way down Ellis St.

Thank you Sarah!

I have my life back! It was stolen 2 years ago by chronic unexplained rectal pain that has stumped 10 doctors. I have tried an array of medication which only reduced my pain by 10-20 percent. I refused to give up and was tired of pills that didn’t work. A friend suggested I try acupuncture and I felt there was nothing left to lose.
I met Sarah, who was kind and understanding. She seemed to instinctively know exactly what I needed and got to work. The acupuncture was relatively painless and I was given some herbs to take home. I wasn’t a fan of the taste but could care less if it took away my pain.
After my first session, I knew I only had a few days till my worst pain day. I’ve always called it “my day of hell” where my pain is 9/10 and feels like I’m 6cm dilated giving birth to my son. I braced for the day and put on my brave face. The shocking surprise was my pain was greatly reduced by 70%! I could function at work and at home! This was manageable.
I feel there is hope now and I’m finally on a journey of healing. I can be a nurse, mom and wife without the dread of pain and unpredictably of pain.

I have been seeing Sarah for a few conditions over the years, she is very knowledgeable and caring.
Recently I booked an appointment for back pain. She gave me much relief after just one treatment.
Sarah also took the time to treat a large cyst that I was suffering from for 6 months. She took the time to treat the infection, it healed in one treatment, and the sever pain is gone. Now I don’t know how to tell the plastic surgeon I don’t need his help!
Thank you for all you do Sarah!

I have never tried acupuncture but after trying to get my elbow and shoulder pain free by two different physio s my friend Sarah offered to treat me. I couldn’t believe the difference after just one treatment.
Thank you so much for your amazing work you do!
I’ll be coming back lots!

Sarah’s treatments are amazing! Within the first weeks of treatment I’ve already experienced great relief from my pelvic pain and female health issues, which have been an issue for me for over 7 years. I am currently getting weekly acupuncture treatments and have been using Chinese herbal medicine daily, this combination has really helped me. I used to have to rely on OTC pain relievers, but my intake of those have been significantly reduced as my symptoms are becoming less frequent and less intense over time. The acupuncture is a very relaxing and calming experience, Sarah takes her time and makes sure that you’re comfortable. I am very grateful for Sarah’s services, and I’d highly recommend booking an appointment with her if you are having any health issues.

Thank you Sarah!

Sarah is absolutely amazing. I came into the clinic with rather severe and chronic lower back/hip pain. She was the first practitioner that provided a longer term treatment plan. I go to her for treatment, not relaxation acupuncture and she is very up to the task.

I continue to go to her as it has kept my pain to a minimum by going for maintenance appointments.

Can't recommend her enough!

I had a nagging nerve glide issue for about 18 months in my left arm/elbow. I tried various physio and massages.nothing worked. I visited Sarah at The Core and tried acupuncture. Best decision I ever made! Sarah treated the entire injury, not just the localized pain in my elbow. After two visits, the pain went away and my range of motion returned. I would recommend Sarah to anyone, she'll be my first call from now on!

I went to so many different practitioners until I found Sarah. Her knowledge in herbs is amazing and within one session I had a huge reduction in symptoms. It was very hard during my pregnancy to 1. Trust a practitioner and 2. Feel better after a treatment. I wish she’d teach a course!

I had major neck surgery 3 years ago leaving me with neck stiffness and neck muscle fatigue. I tried physiotherapy, message therapy, IMS therapy and shock wave therapy without relief. I had my first treatment of acupuncture by Sarah 2 weeks ago and it is the best my neck as felt in 3 years. The mobility go my neck has improved as well as the reduction in neck fatigue. I highly recommend Sarah.

Sarah is a miracle worker! I suffer from terrible TMJ pain and her knowledge and skills worked wonders to help provide relief from the horrible pain. I also have chronic neck/shoulder pain from working at my desk, which I'm sure many people also suffer from and again, the treatment from Sarah has made huge improvements in my pain and management. I cannot proclaim enough how amazing Sarah is.if you have pain - go see her!

I have had chronic pain on the left side of my neck and shoulder for the past 2 years. I have tried various treatments to relieve the pain and even had a work place accommodation completed on my desk but nothing seemed to help long-term. Since I have been seeing Sarah for treatments for the last 3 months, I am finally feeling relief. Sarah can tell exactly where the issue is and focuses on that specific area. I am thrilled that I can finally see long-term results and feel normal again.
Sarah is a professional and is very passionate about what she does which is evident in the treatments she provides.

I first met Sarah after struggling with chronic pain for more than a decade, starting in my 20's. I had tried everything under the sun and was desperate for relief from the daily debilitation headaches and body pain. I couldn't even remember what life was like before the pain and was at the end of my rope. I have been seeing Sarah for 16 months now and the change is remarkable. I have my life back! I am so grateful for her help in this process and will be a client for life.

My time with Sarah is very calm and relaxing. She is so gentle with her treatments. The cupping and acupuncture treatments have been so effective at treating long term lingering injuries. I would definitely recommend multiple trips to see Sarah!
