Testimonials
Sharon is fantastic! She takes a very thorough history and really listens to her patients. Her technique is very gentle – I can’t believe how relaxing it actually is. I have seen improvements in my sinusitis in just a few treatments. I am very grateful to have found her, as her treatments have complemented treatments by my traditional physician and have resulted in an improved state of health. For the first time in months I can actually smell and breathe through my nose!
LF (Sinusitis)
I receive weekly treatments from Sharon to alleviate anxiety and the physical effects that result from it. I experience a deep relaxation during and after the treatments. I am now able to sleep through the night, no longer suffer from chronic bloating, and am able to breathe normally without asthma medication.
SB (Asthma, Anxiety)
I came to Turning Leaf during the summer of 2012 after suffering from a few panic attacks and developing anxiety that I could not shake. I was so nervous but desperate for relief, and Sharon was lovely, patient and understanding. She thoroughly discussed my anxiety, as well as other health concerns at the initial visit and tailored each visit to address my relevant concerns. Within a few months I felt immense relief and have no doubt that acupuncture played a role in my recovery, and continues to help me keep my anxiety at bay.
LW (Anxiety)
I was recently diagnosed with Graves Disease and my Endocrinologist immediately put my on the thyroid meds for my tremors, hot flashes and mood. My acupuncture treatments were so amazing that even the Endocrinologist was taken back by how fast my levels normalized and suggested cutting meds in half after only 3wks! I was originally told it would take a few months before getting to this point. No more shaking hands, restless nights and fast heart beats…I’m so happy it feels good to feel good …again!
SB (Hyperthyroidism - Grave's Disease)
I am a 54 year old woman and originally went in quite distressed about hair loss. Sharon’s manner set me at ease right away and her needling in combination with the herbs and a laser comb have made a huge difference. The texture of my hair has changed completely and the profound shedding has dramatically subsided. I am very grateful to Sharon for her knowledge, caring and professionalism.
DB (Hair Loss)
I went to 2 fertility clinics where I was told the following: my hormone levels were off significantly, my thyroid level would make it difficult to conceive, I would probably never conceive with my own eggs, and my egg count is low, making it difficult to conceive. I began seeing Ms. Bacigalupi in Oct. 2011, and by Feb. 2012 I was pregnant. My husband and I credit her for helping in our long arduous journey to begin our family.
LM (Fertility)
What a wonderful place! I had never tried it before and am thrilled that I have! I began in late April 2010 and have gone every month since. I feel more balanced, my shoulder pain is gone, my nasal congestion is history. It has even controlled my brain fog and my overly active brain! I can feel it working while I’m getting the treatment. It is painless, relaxing and wonderful.
Shoulder Pain, Nasal Congestion
I was soo nervous my first time, and I am sooo glad I went. It has been THE best decision I have ever made. I started going to acupuncture for migraines I found that after weekly visits for a month the migraines become less sever and frequent. I deeply believe in the healing powers of acupuncture, and I truly have Sharon to thank for this. She is the person to see if you are ever seeking acupuncture treatment.
RW (Migraines)
