Finally someone who understands me! I tried another acupuncturist and didn't have a good experience. I made an appointment with Beth Griffing and was impressed with the easy conversation as well as the breadth of knowledge she has acquired. I have tried for years to get answers to my chronic heat, nausea, & fatigue. After discussing my health information and receiving my first treatment I feel amazing! I would definitely recommend Beth to women frustrated with traditional medicine with no results. - lolo

Beth Griffing's treatments for some ongoing health issues have made a real difference in my well-being. In my opinion, those with complex or chronic health issues especially will make a wise choice in working with her. She’s an observant, knowledgeable practitioner and fully engaged with her patients. If you are working with medical doctors and want to incorporate acupuncture into your health care, Beth is also a great choice. This is intelligent acupuncture from a mature medical mind. - Mark H

“I never had experienced an acupuncture treatment before seeing Ross. He was able to explain his extensive knowledge of acupuncture quite well while being personable and caring. The treatment was relaxing and I could feel the results right away in what the specific treatment was intended for. Although he was able to diagnose and recommend herbs (in pill form) for treatment from a reputable source, it was important for me to use only organic herbs. Many herbs are said to be "naturally" grown, but not necessarily organic. Ross took the initiative to research a herbal pharmacy that offered what I needed and was also close to home. He was more than willing to answer any questions I had before, during, and after my treatment so I had a good understanding of it. My first experience with an acupuncturist was great and helped shift a lot for me in many different ways.” – ST

“I came in for a massage due to what seemed to me an unexplainable strain in my lower back/upper butt (radiating to her leg). Kevi listened to my complaints and suggested (electro-) acupuncture as the best treatment. Although I was open to this, having however never tried acupuncture, I think I was in such discomfort that I would have signed up for almost anything– hanging by my teeth while hanging over the railing of the Ross Island Bridge perhaps. My back was much better after just one treatment and I was more than pleasantly surprised that I did not need to curtail or eliminate any activities by that evening. I swam my regular mile the following day and felt great! This is a vivid testament her expertise and the alternative health practice of acupuncture. I have additionally seen a chiropractor, by her suggestion, for complimentary health practices. I am an acupuncture convert, having been back 4 or 5 additional times for healthy back maintenance over the past few months. I am delighted to say that the back and leg pain has not reoccurred. Thank you!”Lisa T.

“I first saw Kevi while in a very toxic condition. My whole system seemed out of balance. I was also new to acupuncture and a bit anxious. Within minutes of our first session, I felt I could trust Kevi completely. Her manner is so calm, focused, her questions and observation so keen, I felt absolutely confident she could help me heal. The Chinese herbs she prescribed did make an immediate difference. Her acupuncture made me feel relaxed, calmer and more balanced. Each session I felt better and moved further along in healing. I am grateful to Kevi for her careful and knowledgeable practice. Any person who has the good fortune to be her client will benefit more than they can imagine.“Anna P.

“I came to Kevi for severe neck pain. With great concern and warmth she assessed my concerns and eased my anxiety about acupuncture. She also prescribed an herbal formulation that not only addressed my neck pain but helped balance my mood, hormonal and digestive issues. Within a few days after the treatment, my neck was totally healed, and I was amazed by the positive changes in my mood. Having had such a successful treatment and such great advice from Kevi, I’ve visited her clinic regularly, and am always satisfied. Kevi always spends time discussing my problems with me, showing a great deal of concern for any possible ailments, and seeking all possibilities to fully understand exactly what my body needs before she begins the acupuncture. Her method is incredibly gentle, and throughout the session she explains what she is doing and what I might feel, all the while making sure that I am completely comfortable. Her treatments always leave me feeling immediately calm, relaxed and balanced, and her genuine interest in healing her patients is wonderful. I would highly recommend her to anyone, and only wish I could visit her more often!” – Chandra V.

“My healing journey started for me about 4 years ago or so, the moment I stepped into Kevi Keenom’s office. I have had chronic lower back and neck pain after a very bad car wreck. She is very compassionate in her work. She is totally focused on her patient, she listens to your history and is fully engaged in the healing. She poses thoughtful questions to clarify all facets of the medical problem. Kevi has such a passion for the two thousand year old, Chinese medicine and educates the patient with all her knowledge and beliefs to help in the healing process. I started seeing Kevi for weekly acupuncture visits and after the very 1st one I knew I was at the right place. If you have any doubts about the effectiveness of acupuncture in today’s world, you will leave Kevi’s office the first time a believer in acupuncture because of the wonderful results you will receive. Kevi has been a true blessing to me and my healing.”Lisa Archuleta, Portland, OR

“I met Kevi several years ago through a mutual patient. In our sessions this patient made frequent reference to the advice and encouragement given to her by her acupuncturist: Kevi Keenom. This patient also mentioned that Kevi was open to speaking with me in the effort of coordinated care, so Kevi and I met and I could immediately see why our patient trusted Kevi so much. Over the course of the next several years, Kevi and I collaborated on many cases and shared patients. Her insights bridge Eastern and Western medicine and keep the focus on the patient’s needs while never losing sight of the bigger picture. I look forward to years of further collaboration with Kevi and collectively working to assist our patients with their health journeys.”Petra Caruso, ND

“I feel very lucky to have found such a great acupuncturist. I’ve been getting acupuncture for about 20 years and Kevi has been by far the best one I’ve been to. She takes time to talk to you and check various signs your body is showing before you get on the table. She has a great bedside manner and a deep understanding of the human body’s functioning.”Johna R.

“I’ve lived with Type II Trigeminal Neuralgia for 5 years. Trigeminal Neuralgia is notoriously challenging to treat. The medications are debilitating and not always effective, and the treatments are invasive and risky. After years of adjusting and changing my meds, trying to stay on top of my daily, intractable facial pain, I was exhausted and contemplating brain surgery. Coming to Kevi for electro-acupuncture was my last-ditch effort to avoid surgery. A few hours after the first treatment, I realized I had not noticed my pain for some time. It was miraculous. For the first time since my diagnosis, I can say my pain is managed. My quality of life has improved dramatically. Electro-acupuncture is intense and the idea of having needles in one’s face can be daunting. Kevi is the ONLY practitioner I trust for my treatment. I can’t recommend Kevi highly enough!” – NGK
