Dr. Nadia Ayadi is amazing! I have chronic shoulder pain from years of active-duty service and nothing (physical therapy, steroidal injections, etc.) was able to provide relief until I tried acupuncture. Nadia explains every part of the process and makes sure I am comfortable through all procedures and treatments. She is well-informed and an incredible person. Highly recommend to anyone suffering from chronic pain!

My experience with Nadia Acupuncture was excellent. She is very concern about my condition and pain areas before each treatment. The pain relief decreased right away. She was very professional and keep giving tips to stay healthy. She is the best, and she is responsible for having a better life. Thank you Nadia for the bottom of my heart. Best regards Mr. Leonardo Coca

Eastlake Acupuncture is a treasure! Dr. Nadia Ayadi is an amazing practitioner of these tried and true ancient techniques. She brings profound technical expertise as well as genuine compassion, all packaged in a wonderfully peaceful and mindful setting. I have had significant low back pain and spasms for years. Being under Dr. Ayadis care has resulted in a stronger, more resilient back and I have not had any spasms while under her care. Additionally, Eastlake Acupuncture supports our military veteran community as a community care provider.

I was at first very skeptical of Acupuncture but was quickly proven wrong. I was in the military with chronic pain for years and when I retired I was finally able to get help. Dr. Nadia has been very helpful in helping my chronic pain and making each day easier. Her office is very nice and has great ambience as well as a great comfort level. I will definitely be continuing treatment for years to come!

Where do I start? The Dr and the office are the best Ive been to! Ive had constant neck pain for years from my desk job and sometimes tingling in my fingers too. Ive been going to Dr Nadia regularly for a year now and I dont know what Id do without her. Finally Im pain free with just a couple treatments a month. I also sleep so much better and feel a lot less cranky lol. Dr Nadia makes me feel cared for and her neck massage is on point! Her acupuncture is my medicine now and Im fine with that:!

I was hopeful at first and then so encouraged after my first treatment. The calming effects started when I entered the office. Dr. Ayadi was very assuring, listened to my history with understanding and recommended therapy. I had great results that very day. I decreased my pain meds for that night, slept well and today, x2, my pain is decreased. I am looking forward to my next treatment. Five stars +

I have been getting acupuncture for my migraine headaches for several weeks now and I have had a great experience. The pain and frequency has decreased which has been great and just taking the time to relax for an hour every week in a quiet room with soothing music during the appointment has improved my overall mood in general which is such a nice bonus! Highly recommend to give acupuncture a try at Eastlake Acupuncture.

I initially saw Nadia for a knee-related tendinitis issue. She was highly recommended by a neighbor, and she's in my insurance network.
I have to admit that I was nervous about acupuncture, having had a not-great experience with another provider. Nadia made it comfortable and I quickly saw improvement. I'm now seeing her for a foot issue. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking pain relief.

My first appointment with Nadia was amazing, I came in with so much pain on my shoulder blade I could not stand or sit right. I was not expecting much relief on my first session but I left there walking on a cloud. although she assured me that it would take a few more sessions to really make a difference I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to feel so much better after she was done, my experience convinced my coworker who saw me after the session to make an appointment for herself thats how relaxed I looked. I passed out into the most amazing nap ever I almost melted into the bed during the session. Highly recommend Nadia

The first time I walked into Nadia's office, I was not sure what I thought about acupuncture. Now that I have seen her half a dozen times, my doubt has been removed. Everytime I receive treatment, Nadia is a true professional. Her processes are consistent and she makes every effort to put me at ease. It is obvious that she has put a lot of effort into her care-giving as well as the atmosphere of her office - very calming.
Most importantly, she has brought comfort and mobility back into my life. Nadia has my absolute trust in her care of my ailments and she is my goto for treatment. Very highly recommended.

Thank you, Nadia!! Your acupuncture could heal the world! I got in within a few days of whiplash and you really gave me a relief of heavy stiffness. Plus, such a relaxing atmosphere to be in. I've been using castor oil w/heat as well. Thanks for the care you put into your practice. You are appreciated!

I want to say that Nadia Ayadi is an outstanding acupuncturist, and I would recommend her to anyone. I am a retired registered nurse, and was a bit leery of nontraditional medicine. My problem started as a stiff neck and progressed to almost constant pain and very limited range of motion. After four months of muscle relaxants and physical therapy which failed to help, my doctor referred me to Nadia.
With in two weeks of treatment I started to improve, and after six weeks I saw significant improvement. After three to four months the pain was gone most of the time, and my range of motion had greatly increased. After six to nine months I was pretty much back to baseline. I am older and have arthritis and other issues. I continue to see Nadia about every month to loosen up stiff muscles and ligaments.
I didn't realize that we move our necks a thousand times a day, until I couldn't. I am very grateful to Nadia. She is a kind, caring and gifted practitioner, and I would recommend her to anyone thinking about acupuncture. She gave me back the ability to live a more active life.

Nadia is one of the most caring and knowledgeable practitioners I have ever met. She has a calming presence and genuinely listens to your concerns. Her skills are very wide ranging and she asks questions that help get to the heart of what's going on. Being treated by her is a gift - I could not recommend it more!
