Reviews of Seattle Acupuncture & Holistic Health

Morgan Lundberg

Monica always provided the best compassionate and effective care. She is very knowledgeable and does a great job explaining what she is treating and why during each visit. I would highly recommend Monica as she is the best acupuncturists I have ever seen. I will definitely be going back to her in the future!

Monica has Been a godsend over many years treating me for primarily autoimmune conditions. Pretty much every health issue I’ve had responds to her care, ranging from gynecological to neurological to structural (sprain). Monica places needles with intention and intuition and you can feel the physical response immediately and in the long run. With other acupuncturists I used there has been almost no physical response during treatment or effectiveness afterwards. She also has advanced training that makes her able to handle more complex cases like my own. Even though I don’t live close I travel across Seattle to get to her cause I’ve tried the others but need to stick with the best. Can’t recommend more highly!

This review is way overdue but very deserving... I started seeing Monica almost 5 years ago to help bring balance to my monthly cycles and hormones. After a few months my cycles had become more regular and I became pregnant. I really feel that Monica was a huge part of helping my body conceive and maintain a healthy pregnancy. She is very easy to talk to, attentive and knowledgeable. I have been to three different acupuncturists in my life and Monica was by far the best. Thank you Monica!

Ruth Rockafellar

Monica is an expert, confident, knowledgeable, caring acupuncturist with many years of experience and specialized education. I have been to three other acupuncturists in the past and Monica by far and away has provided the most effective treatment.

I went to see Monica when I was 39 years old, and had already been through two miscarriages. I had heard from a friend that acupuncture would be helpful to try and conceive. I found Monica online, and after reading her rave reviews I knew she was the one! I went to go see her and explained my situation. With her treatments and herbs, I got pregnant after 6 weeks of seeing Monica. I'm currently 37 weeks pregnant and owed it all to Monica and her expertise on having this baby girl! We couldn't be more thrilled. Monica is the best, I trust her 100%.

Monica is absolutely wonderful. I went to see her after struggling with infertility for over 3 years. I was very particular when choosing an acupuncturist for infertility. They had to have awesome reviews and a great success rate. Based on what I found on the internet, Monica had both. My first visit went very well. Monica was extremely kind and gentle. She took the time to ask me questions to try to understand where I was in my infertility journey. She explained how the treatment works and why she chose specific points. I’m ecstatic to announce that after seeing Monica for only a month combined with Western infertility treatment I am pregnant for the first time ever! I truly believe that it was a combination of Eastern and Western medicine that made my dream a reality. I plan to continue to see Monica as I get closer to delivery. I would recommend Monica to anyone for any treatment that acupuncture would be able to help. She is simply the best.

I recommend the peaceful environment and professional care at Seattle Acupuncture & Holistic Health. The periodic acupuncture has proved to be very effective treating a family history in varicose veins, digestion, and allergy-based sinus pressure. These methods have been used for centuries and so often forgotten!

Calley

I was referred to Monica for acupuncture from my OBGYN since at 35 weeks pregnant our baby girl was breeched. After two sessions, she flipped into the correct position! I kept seeing Monica to help get my body ready for labor, which seemed super effective in shortening my overall labor time. I highly recommend Monica as she truly cares about her clients' health and wellbeing, in addition to getting positive results from her treatments.

I started seeing Monica weekly for help regulating my cycle and improving fertility. We’d been trying to conceive for almost a year. Within one cycle, I stopped spotting. Within two cycles, I was pregnant! I'm continuing treatment for pregnancy support--which has been so effective for treating fatigue. Monica is incredibly knowledgeable and caring. Each session she listens to what’s going on, then explains what she is doing and why. I'm so appreciative of her expertise.

Jennifer Rogers

Monica is simply the best. I have been seeing Monica weekly since November and she has improved the way my body functions both physically and emotionally. Monica is extremely knowledgeable in acupuncture and never ceases to amaze me in explanations of how our bodies work, and the ways that acupuncture can benifit. I trust her implicitly and recommend Monica to anyone who is in need of an Acupuncturist, she is not only knowledgeable but very caring.

Andrea James

Monica really knows what she is doing and she has a kind and patient bedside manner. She has years of education and experience. Intelligence, competence and kindness in one provider can be hard to find, and she has all three. So often, health care practitioners don't truly listen to their patients. But Monica does listen and it is refreshing! As for acupuncture itself, it's a mystery to me how it works but I've seen the proof in my own body with chronic pain cured that drugs could not fix. I'm a skeptical science and technology and business/numbers person. But at this point, I would try acupuncture with Monica BEFORE taking traditional pharmaceuticals for most ailments, including skin ailments or muscle pain. She also fixed my carpal tunnel wrist and I still sort of can't believe it, but the pain is gone. Monica is really good at explaining what she is doing and her reasoning, which makes the visits fascinating as well as healing. I can't believe I waited until my 30s to try acupuncture but I did so out of desperation and was pleasantly surprised! She is a good ally for personal wellness. Also, I appreciate that Monica is working on my behalf and no one else's -- there's no drug company kickback lurking in the background of her recommended treatment. It's just her - the medical provider and me, the patient, without outside influence. In sum: Highly recommend Monica! Her new Queen Anne location is calming and charming, right on the Avenue.

My experience with Monica @ Downtown Seattle Acupuncture has been truly a great experience! I went to see Monica for fertility issues, as I had heard acupuncture could possibly help in this arena. Not going to lie, I don't like needles and was skeptical at first, but Monica made the process easy & enjoyable, and it's a very relaxing and calming way to spend 30 minutes:-). I saw results in a matter of a couple months, and now, it has been about 1 year and I believe that the combination of my acupuncture treatment with Monica, along with my fertility medicine I was taking, allowed us to conceive and am happy to report that I am currently 20 weeks along in pregnancy and couldn't be happier. Because I believe acupuncture can truly help in SO many ways, I continue to see Monica to help with stress relief, headaches and muscle pains throughout my pregnancy. She is very knowledgeable with the science behind chinese medicine and in my case, fertility, along with what herbs to take to regulate my body and the various foods that improve the process as well. She not only was a great acupuncturist, but also is very personable and down to earth and enjoy visiting and receiving treatment each month. I would highly recommend Monica and her practice!

Monica has been amazing. After being diagnosed with Bell's Palsy, my doctors failed to take me seriously so I turned to a Facebook support group who recommend I try out acupuncture. Monica happened to be the 1st person recommended and I am glad I found her. I emailed her late on a Saturday after my hospital visit and she responded very quickly. She took me seriously and treats me like a human being. The pain I was experiencing was significantly reduced and my muscles are almost back to normal. I'm afraid to know what may have happened had we not crossed paths. I highly recommend Monica, especially if you are battling Bell's Palsy.

I’ve seen Monica off and on for about 10 years, and I can tell you she is unceremoniously awesome. She gets right to business, carefully listens, thoroughly assesses and makes an action plan that works. I love that she tells you what she’s doing and why. And I love that I can talk to her about anything – emotional, physical, hormonal – over the years, I’ve known I can bring her anything and we address it together. Most recently my doctor and I decided I no longer needed a small dose SSRI I had been taking- but withdrawals are notoriously brutal. My first call was to Monica and I am so glad. It was hard, but the relief of acupuncture was tangible. 3-4 treatments and I feel like myself again. Monica is gifted, unassuming, and kind. I am so grateful.

Everything about Monica's practice is stellar. Allergy season was brutal for me this year since drugs weren't working I tried non-drug approach. Honestly, her work was more effective, and longer lasting than seasons of pill popping. Acupuncture is now my first step to ward off the annoying symptoms of allergies. Her work even improved other areas of my life that weren't a focal point of my treatment (i.e. better sleep, more focus, consistent relaxed mood, regulated blood sugar levels, and so forth). Monica explains her diagnosis and how she's going to treat it, along with a clear idea of where the needles will be placed and what to expect. She listens, really listens to your feedback and makes adjustments to keep you comfortable. She's so pleasant to work with through it all. The clinic is convenient to the bus tunnel and easy to find. The office is extremely responsive to messages and scheduling is very flexible. The office atmosphere is relaxed, clean, organized, friendly, and I was pleased that her office coordinates with insurance plans. It was worth a call to my insurance company to verify they cover acupuncture without a Dr. referral, and Monica's office manager is very helpful walking you through that process. My allergies disappeared after 6 weeks of treatments (1x / week) and I am grateful to Monica for helping me regain and improve my health. I was disappointed to leave Seattle because I would have continued seeing Monica for other aspects of my health beyond just allergies. I still refer friends back home to her because the treatments improved my quality of life.

Monica is the most powerful acupuncturist I have ever visited, with respect to both efficacy of the immediate treatment and the longevity of a given treatment's aftereffects. I attribute this to her skill in practice, of course, and also her sensitivity, insightfulness, and judgement. The plan she develops for each treatment is so highly and yet so easily tailored to the needs of the moment, her perceptivity really sets the stage for success on the table. I'd definitely recommend Monica to anyone seeking acupuncture.

Kris Reagan

I have been seeing Monica for 1.5 years and have loved every second! She helped me get pregnant (through IVF), stay pregnant and deal with the many hard symptoms of pregnancy. She has also helped with my headaches, stress/anxiety and I haven't gotten a cold since seeing her! Monica really listens to how I'm feeling and genuinely wants to help.

Logan Koski

I have been going to Monica for almost 10 years, she has helped me through plenty of sports injuries when nothing else worked. Since I have IBS I have trouble with my gut, but Monica has done miracles on my gut health. I would highly recommend her to anybody!

Kate Legg

I experienced severe back and leg pain for three years before seeing Monica. After the first session with Monica, I was 90% pain free and honestly in complete shock. I would refer any of my friends or family to Monica without reservation as her practice is empathetic and is also run using holistic care best practices. Thank you, Monica.

Lauren Parris Watts

Monica is excellent at what she does. I started seeing her at 33.5 weeks pregnant to help flip a breech baby and by my next appointment at 36 weeks the baby had turned! I started seeing her again when I went past 40 weeks, and I went into labor a few hours after my 2nd or 3rd treatment that week! I highly recommend her to all pregnant women to help with pregnancy-related health issues or just overall good health!

I don’t write a lot of reviews but I had to share my recent experience with Acupuncturist Monica Legatt at Seattle Acupuncture and Holistic Health. Recently, I experienced a lot of health issues - from tingling sensations in my arms and hands, cervical stenosis in my neck and shoulder and burning sensations as well as lumbar stenosis in my back resulting in numbness in my left leg and foot. Despite undergoing a series of traditional methods to get better and a whole lot of MRI’s, CT scans and blood work, traditional medicine could not provide me any significant relief. My only option was to live with it until I was ready to have surgery. I decided to turn to Acupuncture and based on Monica’s great reviews decided to begin treatment with her. The past couple of months of Acupuncture treatments have provided me significant relief and I am almost feeling like my old self. In addition, the full-on numbness in my left foot - which was getting to be a daily issue making it hard for me to walk and completely impacting my day to day activities is now down to a tingle in my left foot and I as I continue to receive treatment with Monica I know my condition will only improve. If you have tried traditional methods and drugs to regain your health and want to begin feeling better, Monica has an uncanny intuition and great skill as an acupuncturist and will be a great help you in your recovery. I am so very glad I found Monica!!

If you're even thinking about accupuncture, or if you're seeking alternative therapies beyond what Western Medicine can provide, I recommend Monica without reservation. She is extremely knowledgeable and capable, and she fosters an atmosphere of trust and compassion from the very start. I first visited her offices after spending years futilely searching for treatments and/or therapies from Western Medicine that might at least manage my various ailments, and I wasn't sure what to expect. After only two sessions, I feel better than I have in nearly two years. I also love the fact that she's covered by my insurance, but I honestly would continue my treatments with her even if they weren't covered! Monica, thank you!!

Rebekah Doty

I first met Monica four years ago, when I sought out an alternative treatment to debilitating migraines that western medicine had been unable to treat. My first appointment with her came after almost three weeks of a headache that would not subside. I was skeptical but desperate, and walked out of my first visit headache free. I have continued to see her for fertility issues, help with sleep & stress--I have gotten relief in all areas in ways that western medicine had not been able to provide. I would highly recommend her, and cannot say enough good things.

Shea Fitzgerald Scheuler

Monica is a natural healer. I have gone to her for physical and emotional issues and always received strong results. I love the element of teaching and service she offers to explain what is going on with my body and the holistic opportunities for healing that exist. I've seen over 8 acupuncturists and she is by far the most effective and supportive that I've encountered.

Margaret Rasmussen

Monica has been treating me for morning sickness, headaches and digestive issues associated with early pregnancy with great success. She was able to greatly reduce my morning sickness and boost my energy after the first visit. After my second visit I had even more energy and my digestion was working normally. I strongly recommend Downtown Seattle Acupuncture to treat morning sickness and other early pregnancy symptoms. Thank you Monica!!

Lynn Benedict

I met Monica late Summer 2016. I was looking for an alternative to injections for reoccurring joint pain. I was impressed from the first visit with her quick assessment and recommending electrical stimulation for these areas. I appreciated knowing in advance how many visits to treat. I had great results. I had also been dealing with insomnia for years. We discussed acupuncture to increase yin for the sleep issue. It has taken some time however I have am seeing great improvement. Monica provided me with a food list and additional remedies. I appreciate her partnership, knowledge, and experience. I feel so lucky to have found her !

Robin Lynn White

I've been seeing Monica since 2012 when I thought I'd give acupuncture a try for labor induction. I returned in 2013 for additional medical reasons; reasons for which I did not wish to take prescription drugs. I remembered how great I felt after acupuncture during the end of my pregnancy, so I returned, hoping it would help me a second time around. I have noticed and continue to notice the improved difference in how I feel with regular acupuncture sessions (and the negative effect if I miss a session). I have seen a benefit in my energy levels, anxiety levels and pain management. It really has helped me so that I need not take prescription drugs. Although I work in Biotechnology for a living, Eastern medicine practices are working better for me and my body. Monica is professional and welcoming - she really puts the first-timer at ease. I would recommend her to anyone wishing to give acupuncture a try.

Rebecca Gerben Mehta

Monica is a skilled acupuncturist and caring, responsive practitioner. I saw her regularly through both of my pregnancies, during many allergy and flu seasons, and for a sports injury. I highly recommend Monica for providing great care and followup.

Ellen Lende

Downtown Seattle Acupuncture is such a wonderful, calming place to visit. I most highly recommend Monica Legatt. She is incredibly skilled, knowledgeable and informative. I was initially treated by her for a severe case of psoriasis. After a few treatments and herbal supplements, my skin quickly and quite beautifully cleared up!!! What a relief! The benefits of Monica's treatments extend much further than one issue, however (in my case it was my skin), acupuncture treatments have helped calm my nerves, have aided in more restful sleep at night, and just overall I feel better. I've seen various acupuncture professionals over the years (it can help with literally any health issue you might have!) and I find Monica to be quite stellar in her comprehensive, subtle and calming approach. - Ellen Lende

Wanda Mack

I would recommend Seattle Acupuncture & Holistic Health to everyone, because Monica is not only excellent in her field of study, acupuncture, but she is very well versed in the area of Holistic Health. She has helped me enormously in my life, and I have shared with my family members and friends the invaluable information that I have learned. I have been changed from the inside out for the better, and I will never go back to my former self thanks to the care I received at Seattle Acupuncture & Holistic Health by Monica!

Becky Kung

Monica has been super helpful with treating my lactation issues as a breastfeeding Mom with acupunture and herbs. I appreciate the time she spends to properly treat me and cover all angles in each session. She also always makes herself available to get in to see her.

I will not hold back when I say that Monica Changed my life.. at least my inner workings of the female monthly hellish cycle and all that comes with it. I have never been treated other then high dosages of Midol/tylenol etc for painful cramps during Mother Natures furry week. Monica took the time to find out exactly what my special time of the month looked like and she precisely met my bodies energy obstructed needs. Only after 2 1/2 hour visits did I notice Drastic changes for the better. Not only was she able to make my cycle regular but the pain and loss of days due to double over cramps was diminished to a slight ache that moderate exercise took care of. It was so strange to see such sudden results that I was almost taken off guard when my womanly gift snuck up on me and that never happens. I am eternally grateful to have met Monica. I can only sing praises of her professionalism and new found friendship. I will refer anyone I know to her services for a wide variety of issues. LOVE this woman!

Brittney Bacon

I first sought out Monica for help with fertility treatments and implanting. I had never experienxed Accupuncture at all but was desperate to try anything after trying to conceive for 2 years. I am so happy to say I am actually pregnant!! With that excitement came all the morning sickness (ALL DAY SICKNESS). I wish I had contacted Monica as soon as the sickness hit. I tried all the tricks and tips from friends and articles! Someone mentioned accupuncture and of course I called her right away! In just one treatment I felt relief the next day which lasted 2 weeks! As soon as it came creeping up I booked my next appointment! I don't know how I would have made it past these weeks without help! So glad I found her!

For me, Monica Legatt sets the standard any other acupuncture experience has to measure up to--and none of them have, so far. In other words, from what I've seen, Monica Legatt is simply the best. She is knowledgeable, experienced, thorough, and effective in what she does. She calmly explains what she's doing and why. She understands the principles of Chinese medicine and is able to demonstrate how well they work with her practice. I highly recommend her to anyone. I first went to Monica several years ago for help with migraine headaches. After an absence during which I relied on Western medicine I am back for treatment for increased migraines plus exhaustion and nausea. Immediate improvement in every area has followed. I'm not doing anything else for these problems, so all credit for my increased energy and decreased pain belongs to Monica Legatt. I've never had an issue with needles myself, but I can say that my trust in her treatment puts me entirely at ease. Any anxiety about the very slight pricking or any other momentarily uncomfortable sensations produced by acupuncture is completely relieved by her calm, clear approach to what she's doing. Powerful, free of "side effects," sensible, long-lasting--there are so many good reasons to choose Chinese traditional medicine's acupuncture and herbs for treatment. It's a good system, and I have found Monica Legatt to be its best practitioner.

Casey Johnson

Extremely satisfied with Monica. She has a calm nature, she is very descriptive with what the process of acupuncture is and never fails to explain what we are doing and how this is helpful to me personally. Definitely recommended.

Tonya Spivey

I went to have treatment for my autoimmune disease. She was able to help the symptoms involved with the disease including the stress/anxiety associated with having a chronic disease. I also had an unexplainable numb spot on my knee that she was able to correct in one session. I have since moved out of the area and gone to other acupuncturist but still have yet to meet Monica's match with proficiency and consistent relief.

Treasa Scott

If you suffer from headaches, whether migraine or sinus, you should see Monica! She relieves my heavy head so that I feel like myself again. Since I've seen her my migraines are less frequent... what's not to love about that! :)

Yekta Levent

I had a muscle pain that no chiropractor or massage therapist could resolve until I visited this place. Their prices are reasonable and Monica has a very light touch. I recommend all my friends to try if you have any pain or stress
