EXCELLENT Based on 140 reviews Matt Sorenson25/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been seeing Dr Michael V. for about 2.5 months now, and he is phenomenal. Very knowledgeable, explains everything very well, and he has helped me heal a neck injury to the point that I may be able to avoid surgery. I definitely recommend! Rynn Jacobson22/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at Inner Gate is amazing. I had a bit of a mess with my complicated insurance and a communication hiccup (totally my fault), but the admin team and Dr. Kelley were incredibly gracious and helpful throughout. Unfortunately, due to my insurance network, this won’t be my forever clinic — but I truly wish it could be! Dr. Kelley is so kind and empathetic, and the clinic’s vibe is instantly relaxing and welcoming. If you’re looking for a fabulous space to find healing, I highly recommend Inner Gate. Michael Buonocore18/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had my first experience with acupuncture at Inner Gate a couple of years ago when I was experiencing a lot of pain in my neck and upper back. Steroids and muscle relaxers barely helped, but acupuncture made all the difference. I recently returned with a similar issue and knowing this would fix it saved me a lot of time suffering. If you're nervous about trying acupuncture, you'll be in very skilled hands with Casey, and trust me - it's not as scary as it seems if you're worried about needles. I actually look forward to my treatments - they're super relaxing! Magi Treece14/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have come to rely on Inner Gate’s knowledge, experience and attention to detail over the last 2 years. From severe pain and near immobility to a full range of motion again, I am so grateful. I cannot recommend them enough. Erik Isaacman, Michael VanSooy and Zach Kaufmann have helped me immeasurably. Thank you! Hope11/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I started working with Dr. Krebsbach several years ago after hitting a wall with my current Naturopath. I was having a wide array of health concerns but was struggling to get any answers as to why. After only a few months of working with Dr. Krebsbach we were able to get some pretty major diagnosis and then continued working together to treat the symptoms. Now a few years later I’ve made a ton of progress and am feeling more like myself than I have in years! Heather is very knowledgeable and was willing to order a wide array of tests to help find my root causes. She’s very warm and kind and I’ve enjoyed working with her. I’m immensely grateful to Heather and her team! Sarah Moon10/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Heather Krebsbach is fantastic! Her guidance on my health has been immeasurable. I've been seeing her for years both as a Naturopath and Acupuncturist and highly recommend her to my colleagues and friends. David Lizaola10/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have a torn rotator cuff that had surgery and then it was re-town. I had been dealing with constant pain and had a hard time sleeping. I heard about Heather and the prolotherapy through my acupuncturist. After my first treatment with her, there was still pain, and slow progress toward less pain. After a few weeks from the first injection though, I was able to sleep more comfortably and noticed finished pain. I have now done 3 sessions, and I have been able to swim with minimal pain, which I never imagined possible. I highly recommend this treatment for injuries. Heather is a great communicator and has been amazing to work with. I’m headed in for my 4th treatment soon! Cara Guynup06/01/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Heather is an integral part of my wellness team. She has helped me with sleeplessness, menstrual issues, hormone balancing, anxiety and more. She is incredibly thorough, easy to talk to, and supportive. I highly recommend adding her to your wellness team! Laurie Canup18/12/2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amy’s work was amazing. I’ve been struggling with hamstring and ischial tuberosity injury for several months and tried several modalities. Within a week I’m back to lunges and strength training and feeling good. I highly recommend Amy Armstrong and Innergate.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.

Katherine V.March 9, 2023.Verified While recovering from injuries sustained from a car accident, I have seen a few different acupuncturists as well as a chiropractor and masseuse at Inner Gate, and I have appreciated them all. The care I've received has been stellar - compassionate, personable, considerate, and soothing. Truly, Inner Gate practitioners have greatly helped me in my healing process. Thank you!Abbie W.July 26, 2022.Verified I have been seeing Nick Maxwell for Craniosacral massage for the last several months after a car accident left me with whiplash, nagging low back pain, a mild concussion, and stress and anxiety. He is an incredibly gifted healer that has helped me immensely! I have had a plethora of bodywork over the years, and I can undoubtedly say that his massages are the best. He has also helped with digestive issues/SIBO/nervous system recovery. I would never see anyone else again after finding him. I am much calmer, happier, and healing well thanks in big part to his care.Elizabeth M.February 10, 2022.Verified Well, I will start by saying that Nicholas Maxwell is my favorite massage therapist. I went to him after 1 year of shoulder pain. Before going to him, I was waiting for the pain to just go away; it didn't. He was the first person I sought any help from. I'm sorry to say, I didn't expect that much relief from a massage but after about 3 sessions I felt close to cured of 1 whole year of pain! He recommended a great physical therapist to solve my shoulder stiffness and pain. My pt said that Nick did a great job of loosening up the muscles for a quicker recovery. Nick seemed to wipe out all the surface pain and extraneous tenderness so that my pt could pinpoint my injury which turned out to be shoulder tendonitis. Now I see both of them concurrently. They both gave the same estimate for recovery, which was shorter than I thought it would be. I've had more that 50 massages in my lifetime (CA, NY, NV), Nick is the only massage therapist I have been to that leaves me feeling better for days and days after the actual massage. If I could describe what Nick's massages feel like, it would be like this: If the ocean waves had massaging hands, they would be Nick's. Before going to Nick, I am a chuck steak. After my massage, I am filet mignon. What can I say, Nick Is Awesome!!Julian J.November 4, 2021.Verified My physical therapist suggested acupuncture for my chronic knee injury in July 2021. I'm going to explain my story, but I want to say at the beginning that Emma Ellsworth at Inner Gate Health & Wellness saved me from a life of chronic pain. It's really difficult and frustrating to find good care anywhere these days, so trust me when I tell you that you can end your search now. Just call Inner Gate and ask for Emma. I always find it helpful to read health care reviews from folks who suffer from the same issues as me, so here's a bit about my medical history: My orthopedic physician diagnosed me with IT band syndrome in my right knee in January 2021. I began a course of physical therapy, but not only did the IT band syndrome not get better, I actually developed IT band syndrome in my left leg due to overcompensation. I pushed myself a little too hard and started noticing that even very light exercise would cause my symptoms to flare up (inflammation, pain, swelling, etc.). By May 2021, I could not walk more than 3 blocks at a time without my knees flaring up. Keep in mind that I'm an otherwise healthy person in my mid-30s. I then developed hamstring tendinopathy in both legs, I assume to disuse. Along with preexisting patellofemoral pain syndrome issues, suffice to say that my knees were totally busted, okay. After all that, my physical therapist and orthopedic physician basically threw their hands up and suggested either cortisone shots for the rest of my life, acupuncture, or prescription pain medication that I really shouldn't be taking due to family history of hypertension. In comes Emma. I'm a huge believer in modern Western medicine and everything, but Emma succeeded where two physical therapists, a physiatrist, my orthopedic physician, and my primary care doctor all failed. Emma succeeded not only because she did something they did not - acupuncture - but she succeeded because she was more effective and patient at taking time to find the actual root cause of my issues. She is super methodical about interviewing me at the beginning of every session, evaluating what worked / didn't work from last time, trying out new areas for acupuncture, and over the course of 4 weeks eventually found an acupuncture solution that reduced my pain. I remember when it happened - I had an acupuncture session one Friday in October, and two days later I was going for a walk and ended up walking like 3 times further than I had walked in the past 6 months. I stopped and was like, "Wow my legs don't hurt at all." The pain literally vanished, went from a 5-6/10 on the pain scale all day every day down to 0-1. The massive pain reduction has allowed me to resume my physical therapy exercises with less pain and start rebuilding my knee strength. I still go to acupuncture to deal with some knee meniscus issues and overall wellness / mental health issues. Honestly, I feel such a tremendous sense of wellness after every acupuncture session that I kind of don't ever want to stop going. Anyway, if you made it this far, thanks for reading and hopefully my story is helpful. Seriously, go see the folks at Inner Gate. You won't regret it!!Mitchell P.October 19, 2021.Verified Inner Gate Health & Wellness provides exceptional care! Their staff, specifically Emma Ellsworth, is skillful, compassionate, and effective at providing holistic healing services, including acupuncture. I highly recommend treatment with Inner Gate and Emma Ellsworth for symptoms including depression, anxiety, pelvic floor pain, back pain, and digestion issues.Ruben S.April 15, 2021.Verified This is a long overdue, rave review for Terry. I've been to many acupuncturists over the last decade and she is hands down the most helpful and accommodating. I came in with a very unsolvable problem (tinnitus) and had tried everything before coming to Terry. Terry has helped improve my symptoms with Tinnitus and a number of other issues. She's also extremely patient and takes time out of every session at the beginning to go over progress and how I'm feeling. She has a good understanding of my problems and is always ready with solutions to help. Acupuncture with Terry is one of the highlights of my week -- thank you for being so great!!Dr. Kaley B.November 28, 2020.Verified Very impressed! Great acupuncture, well organized front desk. Liz is fantastic, and I'm not a fan of needles. Finally got some relief from back and neck pain. Looking forward to a few more sessions!Abbie W.September 15, 2020.Verified I highly recommend Oliver Leonetti at Innergate Acupuncture! I have seen him for the last 12 years for various ailments - ranging from nagging sports injuries to digestive issues to insomnia/anxiety, and he always provides the highest level of care that truly lasts. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable and skilled, but he is super kind and caring and always take the time to truly listen. I always feel better after leaving my appointment. I honestly do not know what I would do without Oliver or Innergate Acupuncture! Also, I've seen several of the acupuncturists there, and they are all fantastic as well.M W.July 9, 2020.Verified I can't recommend these guys enough! I have a 10 yr old competitive skier who was having some knee pain & had never had acupuncture done before...not only did these guys gently ease him into the entire process - they also helped him get back on the ski hill after the first couple of treatments I was super impressed with their professionalism & how both Liz and Casey approached his injury - now my little guy looks forward to going to his acupuncture appointments! Yay! Thank you a zillion times over for taking such good care of my little guy.Abby J.January 9, 2020.Verified I used to think acupuncture was sort of hokey. Not total witchcraft, but definitely not the magic, cure-all that people said. Well, folks, a few months in and I can report that I'm a changed woman! Well, really, it only took one session. Terry took my whole health history into consideration and helped with everything. Anxiety, sleeplessness, colds, ankle injuries, back pain--you name it. I've come in with problems and always left improved. I'm sure all the acupuncturists are lovely, but I want to stress how awesome Terry is. She takes my concerns seriously without making me feel like I'm at a stuffy doctors office. She approaches her work with humor and friendliness and is spot on with her treatment. Terry has made me feel comfortable from the get-go and has made my weekly appointments something for me to look forward to. My friends all have heard me rave about her, so I'd say everyone I know should go see her, but then I may never be able to squeeze in my appointments again! Just kidding, of course. Also, big props to the front desk staff too. They have been super kind and helpful when guiding me through insurance issues or unexpected after work traffic. I'd highly recommend Inner Gate SE to anyone with any ailment!
Back and Neck Pain from an Auto Injury:
“I had never done acupuncture before, so I was a little scared when my chiropractor recommended that I have it done. But, after meeting with Erik, my fears quickly went away. He explained everything to me and went at a pace I was comfortable with. Oliver and Erik really are two of the nicest people around, and I really feel like they care about my health. Not only that, but Ive also seen results. With his treatments I have seen my back and neck heal from my car accident. So if it’s your first time and you’re a little scared, don’t be!”
Randy
Upper Back Pain and Stress
“Inner Gate Acupuncture is great. Very professional, knowledgeable, and personable. The care I’ve received for the stress I hold in my upper back has been fantastic. In addition to the technical work, I’ve appreciated their interest and willingness, from a professional perspective, to listen to and understand better what, in my opinion, is causing my stress. This effort is consistent with his approach of treating me as an individual and as a whole person, rather than just a person with an injured body. I’d recommend Inner Gate to anyone who is serious about their healing.”
Tina
Frozen Shoulder
“I walked into their clinic with severe shoulder pain including a frozen shoulder. After working with Inner Gate Acupuncture for one month the mobility returned and the pain subsided. They are compassionate and very sensitive to my needs. Different than other acupuncturists that I have seen is the fact that they got in to the sore areas with massage and really worked out the scar tissue and the pain. I have already referred friends and family and I am confident in referring all of you.”
