Here are what some have said about Better Health Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine:
"I have had the pleasure of working with Mimi Pullen for acupuncture therapy for about 6 months. I began this process to alleviate the symptoms I was experiencing from the beginning of menopause. I was having severe hot flashes, night sweats, headaches and anxiety problems. Throughout the course of treatment, I also contracted a couple cold viruses.
Mimi’s acupuncture treatments gave me immediate relief of the hot flashes, headaches and anxiety symptoms. The herbal teas she prescribed gave me lasting improvement that carried me through from session to session. Over the months, I have become stronger. Now, the menopause symptoms are nearly gone.
Her treatments for the acute cold and flu-like symptoms have been just as successful. There is immediate relief from the headaches and congestion during the acupuncture sessions. The herbal teas she makes have alleviated the fevers and chills along with the headaches and congestion. The treatments have decreased the duration of the colds and allowed me to continue working as a mom and teacher so I didn’t have to use any of my sick days.
I am getting ready to embark on Mimi’s treatment regime for chronic asthma and allergies that I have endured my entire life. I am looking forward to the first summer without sneezing, itching or wheezing.
I would be glad to talk to anyone, anytime if they have questions."

"To Whom It May Concern,
I had always had a difficult time falling asleep. From the moment my head hit the pillow my mind started churning. With a strong aversion to prescription sleep aids because of their side-effects and dependency, I struggled with my sleep for years. Lack of sleep combined with chronic back pain from various injuries (also no good solutions in w med) led me to seek alternatives.
Mimi started treating me 6 months ago.
Mimi began treating me for back pain, and it immediately helped. She quickly sought out the root of my sleeping difficulties, addressed them through needling and an herbal supplement, and brought my awareness to detrimental patterns of worry.
It was fascinating and amazing how, over the course of treatment, Mimi recognized slight variations from week to week and adapted the session’s treatment accordingly. She listened and learned the nuances of my patterns. Her treatment was adapted to my specific needs--mentally, physically, and spiritually--on a given week.
Every passing week our healing partnership grew stronger. Her questions made me more aware of my role in my own health; additionally, the better information I was able to provide, the more specific her treatments was.
She helped me recognize and thwart my mental spinning of wheels and change detrimental patterns into positive ones.
My sleeping patterns improved dramatically. When it routinely took me an hour or more to fall asleep, I now find sleep in minutes. Mimi continues to work with me to alter my thinking patterns, reestablishing them as positive, turning a weakness into strength.
You can tell by the questions Mimi asks and the care she brings to the treatment that Mimi is invested in healing not only what is at the surface but also the underlying elements."
