"As always, Catherine is a warm, friendly practitioner who takes a personal interest in her practice members. Her acupuncture treatments are gentle and effective, and she has a wealth of information as she patiently answers questions. She will be sorely missed!!" - Nancy

"Catherine is warm, friendly and compassionate.
She's also an excellent acupuncturist! Her treatments are endorphin-inducing; total bliss." - Amanda

"As modest and polite as Catherine is, I thought she had slipped into overstatement when she told me,
"I will help improve the quality of your life."
After three years of chronic post-operative back pain for a rare condition, I always temper my expectations.
Nevertheless, she was right! Acupuncture treatments seem to disrupt the pain cycle, so that instead of having to lie flat for a day or two until one passes, an acupuncture treatment or two seems to stop the cycle in its tracks. I don't want to raise anyone else's expectations unrealistically, but for me, the treatments have been almost miraculous.
And although I'm engaged in what will probably be a lifelong battle with pain, the quality of my life has definitely improved with orthopedic acupuncture. Many, many thanks!" ~ Naida

"I have to say that the service I have received has been great. My therapist understands my pain issues. I had questions on acupuncture therapy. This is the first time I have been exposed to this type of medicine. I come looking forward to my treatments. I have used less of my pain medication with this therapy. I have come to refer my coworkers and family to this type of medicine." ~ Ed

"I am amazed. I've put off seeking acupuncture because I couldn't imagine it would work on pain as severe as mine. Two back surgeries for a rare condition left me in chronic pain and on heavy-duty drugs, which work most of the time.
I came in to see Catherine on Day Four of a big pain flare, expecting exactly nothing. When I walked out, pain-free, I couldn't believe it. Now, three days after my first treatment, that pain flare is still gone, and I'm back to a manageable pain level. My hope is that perhaps over time, I can reduce or eliminate some of the heavier pain drugs.
Honestly, I expected NOTHING. I'm very humbled by my experience." ~ Naida

"This was my first time ever going to an Acupuncturist. I've had severe pain in my right shoulder down to my elbow for 8 months. The pain was so bad that I couldn't even open a car door, carry groceries sleep through
the night or even dress myself without crying my eyes out on most days. I had tried Cortisone
injections, Chiropractic, magnets, Physical Therapy, pain pills, arm and shoulder braces etc....Nothing worked.
Then, I found Catherine Dayhoff. She is amazing! My very first treatment, I noticed some improvement.
My second visit, a little more. By my third visit I was able to open doors and carry groceries. I've actually played a few games of darts with my husband and I haven't been able to do any of this in a very long time. Every day I am feeling better.
I am so thankful for Catherine. I didn't think I would ever feel good again.
Thank you!!!!" ~ Shari

"Looking forward to seeing Catherine Dayhoff - who has been helping me with my wicked neck injury- almost forgotten- she has me on the road to recovery. I am lucky to have compassionate helpers that are highly skilled! Over the past two months I have been treated by Catherine for an ancient injury to my neck. My range of motion has been nil and my pain quite high. Catherine offers a wonderful, gliding cupping technique which is deeply relaxing and really loosens up the superficial fascia. That combined with acupuncture to specific areas has reduced my pain tremendously. Also, she has kept the room cozy warm for me- which I find necessary" ~ Lise

"I had a wonderful first experience with Catherine. I came in with some knee pain I couldn't get rid of and it's gone now! I definitely will be back. As a contractor, my body is my most important tool. Weekly visits to a health practitioner are just a business expense. Thanks Catherine!" ~ Tom

"My first ever acupuncturists was not very good so I was figuring acupuncture would not do anything. The nerve pain was gone the next day after my first treatment with Catherine. Looking forward to working with you. I feel with you working with me I'll will improve . Thanks!" ~ Jill

"I had a big vacation coming up and I knew the plane ride would be an issue for me. My back hurt enough that it took over a hour of hobbling around trying to walk off the pain for me to stand and move well at all. Once standing, I couldn't sit without pain. If I sat for 30 minutes my foot went numb and walking again was torture. Sleeping was impossible, I could only sleep in one position and if I turned, it hurt so much I couldn't fall back to sleep. Acupuncture lessened the pain and lengthened the time before the pain would come back. I was able to get off the plane, and I was sleeping better right away after my treatment. I found out that I need to get surgery and am awaiting for my surgery date to be decided. Acupuncture helped my pain level in a big way. It is now 5/10 not the 15/20 that it was. It helped my constipation very quickly. It is much better than laxatives. It has helped me sleep. I can roll onto my back now and I don't wake up as often from the pain. Also, I am not so wound up over my issues. Acupuncture helps me get through my days without as much worry about sever pain." ~ Delci

"I'd like to share that I've been fortunate enough to be receiving weekly acupuncture from Catherine Dayhoff. After two treatments my bouzouki (guitar) arm is doing much better as is my overall energy and disposition. If you have chronic pain or anything like that I highly recommend her work." - Jan

"Catherine, always does a really good job and is very friendly." ~ Kim

"I had a rotator cuff tear over the summer and was headed for surgery. I decided to try acupuncture to relieve the excruciating pain and Catherine came highly recommended by a friend who had seen her before and had great results. After one treatment I could tell the difference and the pain went down. After a series of treatments I was able to move my arm more freely with a lot less pain. After my surgery I kept going in for weekly treatments to speed my recovery time and am so happy
I did! Catherine is very knowledgeable and kind. I would recommend her to anyone!" - Cindy
