Awaken Remedies

Dorian is incredible. Very detail oriented with top level technique and knowledge. I honestly did not know it was possible to feel as great as i do after a session with her.

I’ve been coming to see Dorian for the third trimester of my pregnancy. I am hoping to avoid another cesarean and heard that acupuncture along with other things can help prepare the body for labor. She was recommended by the chiropractor I’ve been seeing for prenatal care. Every session has been great and so relaxing! When I was almost 37 weeks, I got the news that my baby was breech - and I panicked. I had an appointment scheduled that same day with Dorian (where she also did moxabustion - something I’d never heard of), and added a chiropractic visit as well. On my way home from my acupuncture appointment, I could feel baby moving SO MUCH and could feel the hard spot of the head moving down. I was fairly certain that baby had just flipped - so I got an ultrasound done a couple of days later and sure enough - baby was head down! I couldn’t believe how quickly my body and baby responded! It was such a relief! I’m continuing care for the last few weeks of my pregnancy and am looking forward to my first prenatal massage next week!
I can’t recommend this practice enough!!!

After my massage with Dorian, I had so much energy! I got a lot done. I definitely was tired the next two days in my body, which she had warned me about.I could have done better on water intake and I felt the need to stretch more. I was reminded during the massage of different body aches I've had over the last six months that I've since healed from. Feelings in my body resurfaced from throughout pregnancy, labor, and afterward. I felt movement of these feelings and acknolwedgement and appreciation for my body during the massage. It was a cool experience to remember and acknowledge where I am now today. Thanks, Dorian!

Dorian is an incredibly caring practitioner who goes the extra mile to support her clients. I have seen Dorian pre, during and post labor and she was there to hold my hand through every step of the process. Her treatments including her functional medicine practices have helped to balance my nervous system and am forever grateful for her support. Please run don't walk to see her.
