Sacred Vessel Acupuncture & Functional Medicine: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I have been working with Sarah for 5 months now and I waited to write this review until I had a tangible change that I could share. When I came to Sarah I had just had my third miscarriage in a row and was feeling pretty desperate and depressed. After four healthy pregnancies I didn't understand why this was happening. As she looked at my bloodwork she had explanations for everything. We worked through it all and slowly began to rebuild the areas in my body that needed support. She was positive and encouraging and honest. I am now 10 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby and everything feels 'normal' this time. I cannot say enough good things about Sarah. The only thing I wish is that I had seen her sooner because she is seriously like the fairy godmother of infertility and pregnancy. She is worth her weight in GOLD. Thank you Sarah!!!
Fantastic experience: It has been a great experience working with the Scared Vessel team so far! Everyone is caring and knowledgeable! Focusing on my history and my goals for the future, this team really pays attention to the details.
Fantastic experience: I have been struggling with "feeling like garbage" for multiple years while raising four young children. My normal doctor doesn't dig into things, so I just gave up on finding out what's wrong. I was planning to pay big money for a general practice functional medicine doctor, when I learned about Sarah from a friend. Her prices were way more reasonable and she doesn't order unnecessary tests reducing costs even more! After the 15 minute consultation (free!), I knew she could help me figure this out. Because she specializes in pregnancy/postpartum, she has extensive knowledge of what bodies need throughout this crazy phase of life. After the free consultation, she had recommended lab work for me to do before our first appointment, so that at the first appointment, she could give me recommendations for moving forward (amazing! what a novel idea to not waste time or money!). At the first appointment, she narrowed down what she thought was going on. Her knowledge of cellular workings are impressive. I don't think I've ever spoken with someone so knowledgeable. She doesn't do one-size-fits-all and that's so amazing to find these days. She genuinely listens and researches all the information you provide (I had all my lab work for the past four pregnancies) to find a pattern of symptoms that clues her into what's going on. I'm excited to see if her recommendations work to heal my body so I can get back to caring for my children. I met with her virtually which was very convenient.
Thank you for this AMAZING review! We truly appreciate it. Sarah really does want to make sure that health is affordable to everyone, so it is nice to hear you mention how our office works to keep our prices reasonable and make the best of your time and money.
Fantastic experience: Sarah was so insightful, thorough, and was a great listener. She had really good advice and we are excited to be on this journey with her.
Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Sarah and Ariel are nothing short of miracle workers! Sarah’s functional medicine approach helped me thrive during my second pregnancy. I went from being induced and developing postpartum preeclampsia the first time to a peaceful, relatively quick second birthing experience with no preeclampsia. Ariel’s acupuncture kept me strong and resilient, helped facilitate going into labor without induction, and is now helping me heal postpartum.
Thank you so much Stephanie. We were happy to be on your pregnancy journey!
Fantastic experience: Sarah was a wealth of knowledge and a breath of fresh air. I look forward to continuing to work with her!
We look forward to continueing to help you on your journey.
Fantastic experience: Very professional and easy to work with. Explained what she would be doing and why. Highly recommend them
Thank you Eric.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is fantastic. She explained everything in great detail which I appreciated a lot.
We pride ourselves on education.
Fantastic experience: I’m just beginning my journey with Sarah! But I’m really excited about how she will help me! I definitely felt listened to and supported!
Fantastic experience: Incredible knowledge and support! I loved every minute of my appointment!
Fantastic experience: I saw Sarah Thompson for my intake appointment today and walked away feeling like I finally have someone on my team who will take the time and has the expertise to thoroughly comb through my health history looking for hints as to what may be causing my body distress. This level of detail is imperative and so greatly appreciated. I feel relief that I'm in great hands and look forward to continuing our work together. Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I had one virtual appointment so far. I felt listened to and cared for during my appointment. I was surprised that she wasn't in a rush. She sent me a lot of good follow up info. She is definitely knowledgeable and honest. I'm looking forward to working with her more!
Fantastic experience: Sarah and the staff that I encountered during my visit were absolutely the best. I felt understood, and the level of detail Sarah paid to my case my concerns is unparalleled. I feel blessed to have had the time I did with her. Looking forward to future visits!
Fantastic experience: It's amazing how better you feel when health provider actually listen you and the symptoms you're having, instead of just getting meds thrown at you. Sarah is great and I'm so happy I was referred to her.
Fantastic experience: I will admit that I have been skeptical of acupuncture, but after seeing both a doctor and surgeon about my knee pain and being told to wait and see. I decided to take some advice and try it. Sarah was awesome and my knee felt better immediately! I’m sold and will be going back. Thanks Sarah!
Thank you Caleb.
Fantastic experience: After seeing Gastroenterologist unable to heal me now I have hope that you will be able to do it, gain weight, eat most foods without problems and regain my appetite,
Fantastic experience: I had my first appointment with Sarah and she was fantastic! She listened, educated me and always gave a reason behind what she said, and didn't expect all sorts of changes to take place overnight. I look forward to continuing to work with her!
Fantastic experience: Sarah and Sacred Vessel are truly the very best. I've seen countless holistic doctors, acupuncturists, Chiro, visceral pt, and multiple GI doctors and I felt listened to. She brought up multiple items that no doctor ever mentioned. She is EXTREMELY knowledgable and educated me on a whole wellness spectrum in addition to fertility health. I am SO GRATEFUL for her and look forward to continue working with Sarah and Sacred Vessel! THANK YOU SARAH!
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful first appointment with Sarah - it was informative, but very much a back and forth conversation. She was very clear about what to expect and we established the goals of our work together. I'm excited to continue my treatments with this practice!
Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate the opportunity to be a part of this journey with you.
Fantastic experience: Ariel was very knowledgeable and professional. We would definitely go here again.
                            We appreciate your feedback
Fantastic experience: Sarah is amazing! It was such a great experience and I’m really looking forward to my next visit !
Fantastic experience: I felt listened to and respected at my appointment with Sarah.
Fantastic experience: Dr Thompson is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. She took time to listen, answer questions, and explain everything to us. She works hard to figure out the root of the issue and treat that.
We are happy to hear that you felt listened to and that your questions were answered. That is one of our goals at Sacred Vessel. We want every patient to feel that they are truly being heard and that they have someone on their side on their health journey. Thank you for choosing our clinic.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is so knowledgeable! Went over all the processes involved as well as what could be going on and possible paths to take. A very good teacher as well as a good listener.
We are so happy to hear that you felt this way about your appointment. Thank you for trusting us on your health journey. We know there can be many ups and downs along the way.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is extremely knowledgeable and passionate in what she does. My session was so interesting and eye-opening. She is confident, personable and genuinely cares about each patient.
Thank you Amy!
Fantastic experience: I just had my first appointment with Sarah and the experience as a whole was really great! I have had 3 pregnancies, all of which I suffered with pretty severe hypermesis, and no provider I have ever seen has been able to explain any of what was happening in my body throughout this process. Sarah did just this and was so knowledgable on the mechanisms of all the hormones and chemicals in my body and how they relate to my pregnancies. I feel that I can have an easier pregnancy with the help of Sarah and I am really excited to be working with her. Also Lexxi is super helpful!
Thank you! We take pride in explaining what is happening in your body.
Fantastic experience: Very thorough and so knowledgeable:)
Big Thanks!
Fantastic experience: I felt seen and heard during my appointment.
This makes us happy to hear!
Fantastic experience: It took a while to get an appointment with Sarah, so in the meantime I had found a local functional medicine doctor. I was excited when I finally got an appointment with Sarah and the difference between my consult with her and the other doctor I was seeing couldn't have been more contrasted. She spent time to explain and educate me, while also being genuinely interested in my personal story and what im experiencing. Unlike the other doctor I was seeing, I felt heard and seen with Sarah, and needless to say I am not going to be seeing the other doctor anymore. I am excited to have someone who I feel is just as interested in getting some answers for me as I am. Make the appointment with her!!!
We are so happy that you feel this way! We take our relationships with our patients personal, and are vested in your journey.
Fantastic experience: Without a doubt the single best thing I’ve done to release muscle tension.
Thank you Sye! We are happy that you’ve found relief!
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a provider who will spend time with you addressing your needs AND explaining in-depth how your body is functioning, look no further. Sarah is knowledgeable, kind, and attentive.
                            Thank you so much Brooke. Sarah believes that everyone should understand their unique physiology and how their symptoms relate to function. 
Fantastic experience: Sarah is extremely informative and generous with her time and explanations. She was very easy to talk to and made me feel welcome immediately. I would definitely recommend Sarah to anyone.
Thank you! We want to make sure every patient that enters our office leaves feeling listen to, respected and educated.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is an absolute dream provider to find in pregnancy. For such a critical time in a woman and little's life, it's amazing how difficult it is to find a provider who truly listens, cares and digs deep in the roots of your health. She is SO passionate about her work and makes your health feel of the upmost importance. Her intelligence and ability to diagnose and connect the dots on the spot were fascinating. I feel incredibly lucky to be in Sarah's hands for the care of myself and growing this little one.
Thank you. We here at Sacred Vessel feel lucky that you have chosen us and Sarah to help you through this unique time in life.
Fantastic experience: Sarah was a Godsend for me. After spending way too much time on Birth Control pills, I had come off, was having all kinds of symptoms, and was getting poor advice/lack of sympathy from doctors. I was recommended Sarah and was so glad I came to her. She coached me through one of the hardest journeys I’ve ever been on- balancing my hormones in order to try to get pregnant. She tested my hormones, helped me improve my diet, recommended supplements, and performed acupuncture on me regularly. After a LONG year and a half journey, I am seeing major improvements with my body and the way I feel. When I get pregnant, there is no one I trust more than Sarah to be my doula! Yes she does it all and I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Sarah (and Lexi). Awesome place!
The journey to healing is often a long and frustrating journey. We understand that here at Sacred Vessel, and we are happy to be there with you through the ups and downs, on your journey. Big Hugs and thank you for trusting us with your health.
Fantastic experience: Sarah was able to thoroughly explain things in a way that was very easy to understand. I can tell that she genuinely cares about her patients and I’m excited to continue working with her in the future!
Thank you Tayah, we’re excited to work with you on achieving your goals.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is amazing! So incredibly thorough, knowledgable, and friendly. She explained my long haul covid symptoms & put my mind at ease on several things. She has a great plan for me that at I have already started today & am feeling very optimistic for the future! I highly recommend her!!!
I’m so glad! Thank you
Fantastic experience: All I can say is that she is helping me understand where I am at with my health and how to help me heal from my autoimmune problems. I feel at peace on this path with her and have confidence she's helping me get where I need to go. I'm very grateful for Sarah.
Thank you Rachel. It’s a long journey and we are honored to be on your health team.
Fantastic experience: I'm at the beginning of my journey with Sarah, but I feel i'm 100% in the right place for me. After 3 pregnancy losses, and being told i'm "normal" and sometimes there is just no reason, i'm feeling at peace to learn, yes, there is a reason. And now I have clear direction and education how to get myself on a better path to conceive moving forward. I knew Sarah was the right person to help me on this journey when I heard her say "one loss is one too many." I agree. I could have addressed these issues earlier had my other doctor's known better.
Hugs! Thank you. We are happy to be with you on this journey.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. I highly recommend this practitioner especially for women’s health!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Sarah was very thorough and listened to everything. She made me feel heard and comfortable with her approach on my needs and care.
We’re glad to hear this. One of our main goals is to make sure you feels listened to and feel comfortable in our approach!
Fantastic experience: I really liked my experience here. I felt like Sarah was really thorough and explained why I’m having the symptoms I’m having really well. I have a great deal of confidence in the plan she outlined, and I have a lot of hope that I’ll feel better soon!
We’re glad to here this, and are honored to be a part of your health journey
Fantastic experience: Sarah is so amazing and was so helpful throughout my pregnancy. Her knowledge is endless!
                            Thank you Molly
Fantastic experience: I feel so supported on my journey and look forward to every visit. Sarah takes the anxiety out of trying to conceive and weekly visits help me to be able to ask questions and feel more confident on making good choices. I will recommend her to anyone in any part of their womanly journey.
We want all of our patients to know that they are supported and educated them so that there is no fear around their journey. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I have been seeing Sarah for my prenatal and postnatal needs, she is a wealth of knowledge! I appreciate that she is concerned about root causes and will break down the science for your understanding. She is passionate about what she does and it only contributes to her being a great practitioner and partner in your health journey.
                            Preconception through postpartum is MY PASSION! My second passion is helping my patients understand their patterns. 
Fantastic experience: I love Sacred Vessel. Sarah not only helps you with treatments, but also explains how you can take care of yourself at home. She's very knowledgeable and is very clear in her explanations of things. She even draws diagrams on her whiteboard so you can see what she's explaining! All of the staff are super friendly and nice too. I would highly recommend Sacred Vessel.
Thank you. We believe in education as a tool.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is the BEST. I would recommend her to anyone that has been thinking about acupuncture but was hesitant to try. She has made a world of difference in my life. I would visit her more often if it wasn't 70+ miles one way.
Thank you Kathie! Your referrals are always greatly appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is very knowledgeable, attentive, and warm. I feel supported and am always aware of what the next steps are to address my concerns.
                            I'm so glad you feel this way. Sometimes there are many steps to the journey and often it isn't a "quick fix." 
Fantastic experience: I always feel well cared for by Sarah and staff. She is a wealth of nutritional information as it relates to health! Highly recommend her!
Thank you. Our goal is to make all our patients feel informed on their condition and treatment plans.
Fantastic experience: Sarah was so kind and took the time to answer all of my questions. She’s so informative and respectful. She helped me go into labor naturally and I’m so grateful for her!
Love this! Helping women achieve natural birth goals is one of the biggest passions we have.
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough about how instrumental Sarah has been in my healing and pregnancy journey. I am happy to say that I am currently 6 months pregnant and I don't think I would be (or would have gotten pregnant as quick as I did) without the help and support of Sarah. Not only was Sarah great for fertility and pre-pregnancy health but she is now supporting me through my pregnancy and providing me direction and advice that my conventional OB does not provide.
It has been our pleasure to walk this journey with you! Hugs!
Fantastic experience: SVA does the job, I stay & feel good & healthy.
Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is absolutely amazing! I feel like I get a therapy session as well as a health screening every time I see her. She listens so well and is always able to help.
We want all our patients to feel listened to, not like they are just another number. We take pride in developing connections with each person who enters our office. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Thompson! She is a fountain of knowledge, help and support. I've had a few health triggers early on in my pregnancy and she had every answer for me and explained everything throughly and kindly. I really enjoyed my appointment with her and look forward to continuing throughout my pregnancy and postpartum with her help. She really makes you to feel empowered about your health and takes steps with you to make sure that you're feeling comfortable and educated! I wish every doctor were like her, as they should be! I have already recommended a few friends of mine to schedule a 15 minute consult with her because you will learn a lot in that short amount of time and I'm sure she will be able to help anyone through anything on your journey to parenthood.
Thank you, Kaitlyn. I'm an educator at heart and want each patient to understand how their body works, and how they can support their unique physiology. P.S. Pregnancy support is my passion.
Fantastic experience: I can't thank Sarah enough for all of her help and support during two of my pregnancies. She is an amazing source of knowledge and a highly skilled practitioner. I am grateful to have had her as an integral part of my pregnancy and postpartum journey. Sarah is such an asset to the birthing community!
Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I came to Sacred Vessel after dealing with pain from an injury for nearly a year. This injury was so specific that pain meds and other forms of body work seemed like overkill. Sarah was patient and reassuring but realistic throughout the whole process. I want to thank her and the staff at the office for giving me hope in what was such a frustrating injury.
Michelle, it was my pleasure to help you recover. Thank you for giving acupuncture the time it needed, and not writing it off after the first few sessions. I’m glad you’re in a better spot and you are healing.
Fantastic experience: I needed someone to help me with my late term breech baby… everyone else seemed to think I was crazy, but Sarah helped me SO much! She relieved stress, gave me lessons in hormones and what was happening in my body as my pregnancy came closer to full term, and provided a full print out of nutritional needs. She was phenomenal and I absolutely believe she is a huge reason why my baby turned, why my labor and delivery was brief, uneventful, and my healing was quick!
Breech babies can be flipped with acupuncture and moxibustion…as you now know, and it’s so fun to be able to provide this service to patients (like you) who weren’t given much advice other than time and cesarean.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is a lifesaver. She’s helped me out so many times when I’ve had chronic muscle spasms, joint, and nerve pain. There have been times when my pain issues have been debilitating, and acupuncture was the only treatment that worked. Would recommend to anyone in need!
Thank you Austin.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is phenomenal. Seriously, if you are an expecting mama she can answer questions that have your OB utterly confused! I'm so very grateful I found her during a pregnancy that had a whole lot of ups and downs- her help was invaluable.
Wow Meghan! Thank you so much. It is my pleasure to guide mamas on their journey. I truly want every mother to feel supported. Mothers supporting mothers.
Fantastic experience: I found Sarah at the beginning of my pregnancy, We were in the middle of the Covid Pandemic and I had limited resources available to me as a first time mom. I had to attend my appointments alone and felt I wasn’t getting the information I wanted, or really much information at all. My appointments with Sarah were so informative, she was knowledgeable and kind, and an amazing teacher. My husband was able to come to our appointments, engage, ask questions, and support me. We left each appointment with food suggestions and recipes based on my needs for that stage of pregnancy. I felt so secure and so confident in my pregnancy and postpartum journey because of the knowledge and guidance Sarah gave us.
Awe...thank you Bethanie. It is my goal to make sure mamas like you get the information, resources and support they need.
Fantastic experience: I am so thankful I found Sarah! I first met her when I was almost 37 weeks pregnant with a breech baby. From the moment I walked into her office, I immediately felt peace, a sense of reassurance, and that she could truly help me. Sarah has such a gift and her knowledge and passion of pregnancy and birth is very evident. After two acupuncture sessions with moxa I found out my baby was now head down so i continued with acupuncture sessions to help prepare my body for labor and again Sarah’s expertise in this area was amazing. Thanks to Sarah I was able to deliver my 4th baby at home like my other 3. He was 9 lbs 11oz and the fact that he moved to head down position is just part of the many miracles I experienced. I am just so thankful for Sarah and I would recommend her to everyone. I felt truly cared about and she’s exceptional at what she does. Highly recommend!
It has been an absolute pleasure working with you. I am so glad you were able to achieve your birth goals.
Fantastic experience: Sara's skills and knowledge go beyond the doula and reproductive support. I saw her to help kick a cold virus and clear a headache I had for 2 days. Her discernment for act-points were right on and my headache was 80% better by the end of the session. By the next day, I had very little pain, 95% better! Thank you!
My pleasure! I am so glad the treatment made such a sign if any change in your symptoms. I will be here if you need anything else in the future.
Fantastic experience: I’ve only seen Sarah for two visits and one virtual check-up within a few weeks timeframe. In that short time, she has completely changed my life. I was suffering terribly with my health and no matter what I did, or how much I begged doctors to listen to me, I gradually became worse and went into a very dark place mentally, physically, and emotionally. I was so sick I honestly thought that I was dying. Since seeing Sarah, my whole world has changed. I went from pain and suffering to healing and light. If this is how much has changed in only a matter of a few weeks of seeing her, I can’t wait to see how much my life will change within the next few months, and probably next few years to fully heal. Thank you, Sarah. Your help and understanding are invaluable. If you’re on the fence about seeing her for anything, I hope my review will help you to hop that fence and run to her side. You won’t regret it.
Sometimes small changes are all you need to feel better. Happy to work with you.
Fantastic experience: Sarah was absolutely amazing. I was recommended to Sarah by my midwives for some additional late term pregnancy nutrition and accupuncture care and I fell in love with her when she began to explain how and why the nutrition she was recommending would help my body and my baby. She graciously came on as my doula and I couldn't have asked for a better person to be there for me and my husband to welcome our little one into the world. Throughout a long and arduous labor, she was there for us and remained steadfastly and absolutely on point with all of her guidance. Never once did she waiver. I would absolutely recommend Sarah and if we ever need a doula again, I will definitely be contacting her.
It was an honor to be at your birth, and I look forward to working with you for all your needs from here through your next pregnancy. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is amazing! I reached out to her when I was pregnant with my third baby. I felt like my hormones had been extremely out of balance after my second pregnancy and wanted to get help with that for my third. Due to the pandemic, I wound up switching to a home birth a little over halfway through my pregnancy and reached out to Sarah again after my midwife recommended it. I'm extremely thankful that I did. Sarah is a wealth of knowledge and I loved how she explained every step of pregnancy and labor. I also loved all of her knowledge when it came to diet and birth. I have never had anyone sit down and explain what nutrients you need, why you need it and how to get it from food in relation to pregnancy and birth. I felt extremely confident going into my daughter's birth and wound up having an easy labor and birth. I'm so thankful for Sarah and I will gladly recommend her to anyone.
Thank you Kimberly!
Fantastic experience: My appointment was very helpful in providing information about what my body's strengths and areas of need are to maintain my health and well-being. She is very knowledgable and heart centered. I will return!
Thank you. So glad that you felt informed in your appointment.
Fantastic experience: Being pregnant and delivering a baby is an amazing act of the female body. But it also comes with many side effects and symptoms, most of them very personal. I felt so lucky to have Sarah acting as a guide throughout my pregnancy. She has the most knowledge of the nutritional needs of each different phase of pregnancy- I have yet to meet a midwife or OB who knows as much as her in this department. In fact thanks to her guidance I was able to avoid taking a prenatal vitamin (I’m allergic) because she helped me build a diet that would ensure I got all of the proper vitamins and nutrients when I needed them most. Now my baby is healthy and happy, so am I!
Working with pregnant mothers is my passion.
Fantastic experience: I will be forever grateful for hiring Sarah as a doula for my first birth experience. Sarah helped me thrive in both my prenatal, birth and postnatal experience. Her knowledge of functional medicine set me up to tackle my nutrition and give me fuel throughout pregnancy. Any pregnancy symptom I had that was making going about my life hard she could ease within one acupuncture session. When it came time for the due day she showed up in the most compassionate, strong, and confident way. She coached me gently through the hardest parts of labor. Her presence and knowledge helped facilitate an intervention free birth and an experience that I am able to look back on with Joy and gratitude. If you are considering getting a doula for your birth, look no farther. You wont regret the decision to support yourself, your partner and your baby !
Courtney, it was an honor to be allowed to experience your journey into motherhood.
Fantastic experience: I am a new patient at Sacred Vessel and felt immediately welcomed into the SVA family. Sarah is exceptional patient and kind. I was given great information about diet and nutrition. I would highly recommend Sarah Thompson and Sacred Vellel Acupuncture.
Most of my patients are referrals from previous patients. Their family and trusted friends. SVA has slowly become a small family. Welcome.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is incredibly knowledgeable. I have had only good experiences here.
So good to hear. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Sarah literally SAVED my LIFE. I have worked in healthcare my entire life, and felt I had gone down every avenue to treat my stress symptoms. I was on lots of medication that was supposed to be helping me, but was not. Sarah got me down to one med (a needed med for Hypothyroidism), and treated my symptoms rather then just my standard labs. 10 years I struggled for help... She helped me learn to eat healthy (something I thought I was already doing), she treated my extreme exhaustion and gave me a lifetime of knowledge in just a few visits. We have moved out of state, but would recommend her to anyone who is looking for help.
Lacie, I will miss you in the office! Good luck on your move and we'll check in virtually when needed. Keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: I have used Sarah of Sacred Vessel for Acupuncture, Nutrition, and Doula work. I would highly recommend her for them all. She is exceptionally knowledgeable when it comes to nutrition and pregnancy, and offers a variety of suggestions based on your needs. She always had an answer to my question, no matter the spectrum or concern, and she explained in detail. I loved having her support during both of my pregnancies because she covered so many components. Nutrition during my pregnancy, Acupuncture as I needed it during pregnancy, and during my births she was my advocate, my go-to, my friend, and we had a plan going in to my births so she was able to ask, and help me answer on topics we had already discussed for my births. I truly cannot say enough positive things about Sarah and her services, and just her presence and nurturing abilities. She has helped me more than I could ever capture on a google review, and my family LOVES her. She will always hold a special place in my heart. You won't be unsatisfied with anything you choose to work with Sarah on! Call her now :)
This is what the Sacred Vessel family is all about. Education. Support. Individuality.
Fantastic experience: Sarah helped me out by correcting my placenta previa through acupuncture...Then a year later she guided me through a plan to help identify my son’s allergies and come up with lots of ways to get nutrient dense food within our restrictions!!
It has been a pleasure working with you and your family. I hope your son is still feeling better. Figuring out how to make changes when the diet is limited can be overwhelming and many people just revert back to previous dietary habits because it seems to hard. Knowing what can be used as substitutes and learning about new foods, can help you stick to the needed changes. Having great patients like you makes it easy. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I started seeing Sarah for functional medicine and acupuncture when my husband and I decided we were ready to get pregnant. I have PCOS, and I just wanted to get a head start on making sure we would be able to conceive. Upon my first visit with Sarah, I was blown away by her knowledge, her passion to seek knowledge, and her intense (in nothing but the best ways) personality! Getting pregnant ended up being easier than I thought it would be (considering the potential setbacks I brought into it) but the beginnings of my pregnancy were plagued with low progesterone levels, and I truly credit Sarah’s support for having a successful pregnancy (support I would not have received from my regular physicians). From that point, it was a no brainer to invest in Sarah’s doula services. I loved that I saw her regularly throughout my entire pregnancy (and not one or two times before I went into labor), and that I was able to cope with the emotional and physical side effects of pregnancy through diet and supplementation, per Sarah’s guidance. During labor, I felt safe, supported, encouraged, and most importantly, prepared. We had gone over the phases and what to expect, and nothing felt like a surprise. Those feelings of support and preparedness helped me be the best warrior mama I could be during labor! I feel honored to have Sarah in my life journey, as well as my son’s, and I plan to continue to see her as long as she’s practicing!
Oh, Vanessa, the honor is all mine!! It is patients like you that make me love what I do. There is no greater gift than being able to work with women throughout the entire reproductive journey. You are and forever will be a part of the Sacred Vessel family.
Fantastic experience: I was referred to Sarah through a co-worker after having terrible vertigo. Western Medicine has not done me any favors over the last year. I have been gradually shifting to a more holistic approach. Sarah has been such a GEM! Her vast amount of knowledge blows my mind. She takes the time to sit and talk with me, explain in detail, offer studies to support what she is saying. She has devised a treatment plan specifically for me. I know it's for me only because she wrote it out in front of me. It's not a print out. She offers unending encouragement and support! She genuinely cares about people individually. I appreciate Sarah more than i can express!
Thank you Brandi! I love hearing from my patients.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is an incredibly knowledgeable acupuncturist who has not only mastered her craft but obviously takes great pride in educating those around her as well. Not only that, but she is a very kind person! Be sure to subscribe to her newsletter.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Sarah is incredibly insightful when it comes to Functional Medicine. I leave each session feeling inspired, rejuvenated, relaxed and healthful. She is very thorough and has helped me tremendously with my nutrition, sleep, stress and fertility.
Juliane, thank you for you kind words. I personally strive to increase education in my patients. The more you know, the better you can heal. The one on one care is something I never want to lose.
Fantastic experience: Our midwife recommended Sarah to us when I was 38 weeks pregnant and showing signs of high blood pressure and pre-eclampsia. Sarah is an incredible resource and her knowledge, skill and effort were instrumental in my health and that of my baby. With her help and guidance, a miracle took place and I was able to carry my baby to 40 weeks and 4 days, go into labor naturally and have my planned home birth. Her knowledge of nutrition, the body, pregnancy and baby development is mind-blowing. Sarah was the perfect addition to our birth team and I wish we would have been seeing her from the start. We are following up with her for post partum care and are excited to work with her again when it’s time for baby #2!
I can't wait for baby #2!!!
Fantastic experience: Sarah is the best at what she does. I've gone to Sarah to get acupuncture to induce my labor, and she helped determine what supplements and nutrition I needed for a healthy pregnancy. I've also gone to Sarah for migraine issues, I love how she actually LISTENS to me when I explain my symptoms and she truly cares about finding a solution. Sarah is full of knowledge and she's very welcoming- I would recommend her to anyone!
I feel honored to have you and your family as patients.
Fantastic experience: Sarah did an amazing job teaching me how my diet is effecting my thyroid function and overall health. I left my visit with her feeling like I was listened to and a better understanding of what my next steps would be. My concerns had been dismissed for so long, I forgot what it felt like to be heard!
Sadly many people feel as though their health concerns are not heard by other medical practitioners. I truly want to treat my patients as I would want to be treated. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is amazing! She is knowledgeable, compassionate, and invested! I highly recommended her, she will change your life!
It is my patients who change my life. I learn so much from you all. Thank you Romany!
Fantastic experience: I love Sacred Vessel! Sarah's approach to whole wellness is amazing and comes from her years of education. I appreciate how she takes time to talk through whatever is going on with my body, piecing information together to get to the root of the problem, and then coming up with a plan that is not overwhelming!
Piecing together the symptoms and the information we are given is often times not easy, nor quick, but necessary for actual recovery, healing, and overall health.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is the best. I am so thankful that I found her a couple of years ago to help me with some issues I was experiencing. Since then, she’s been my practitioner for most things related to my health- her acupuncture is effective for a wide array of problems, and her advice and guidance on nutrition/supplements is beyond helpful. Sarah is extremely knowledgeable and looks at the whole picture inside and out, and as an added bonus, she’s also such a lovely person.
Awe, thank you! The body is complex, and often there is more to the picture than what is being presented in the chief complaint. It is my goal to try and piece together the puzzle and create an effect treatment plan that focuses on total health.
Fantastic experience: I’m so thankful to Sarah at Sacred Vessel Acupuncture for truly listening to my ailments that lead to the eventual finding of a parasite. I have felt so much better since she helped me get rid of it! She’s so much more than an acupuncturist.
So glad you have recovered. I love my patients, but also love when I don't get to see them...it means our treatments worked.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is very knowledgeable. The acupuncture was a tremendous help with the effects of a pinched nerve. Her help getting me on the right supplements also helped with some long term health issues. I would highly recommend Sarah.
Thank you Allan. As you know, sometimes people come in for acute conditions and we end up treating the whole body for optimal recovery.
Fantastic experience: Sarah was a great support to me while I was undergoing medical treatment. She truly has the deeper understanding of nutrition that my medical doctors don't. She was able to help me navigate my health using holistic therapies and nutrition including awesome acupuncture treatments with her! I am also a nurse practitioner and sent ALL of my patients needing holistic support/protocols to her. Many of whom had excellent outcomes after using her services!
Having the trust of western medical practitioners like you is an honor. We make a good team.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is awesome!! She has so much knowledge of the body and it's systems. I have been trying to figure out my health problems for a long time and finally feel I have found someone who can help!! I am excited to do the detective work with her and get truly healthy. Thanks Sarah!!
The body is an amazing and fascinating puzzle. We are just beginning to fully understand it’s complexities. I use up to date research to help piece together the symptoms to create a large picture of the whole person. It often does require some detective work, and testing.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is truly the best in her field! She is highly knowledgeable and I trust her wholeheartedly with my own acupuncture treatment as well as my family's care!
Thank you so much for your kind words.
Fantastic experience: I had such a wonderful experience with Sarah for my first acupuncture and cupping treatment. Sarah is so knowledgeable in her field and really took her time talking with me and treating for the issues that I had. I felt so relaxed and the treatment made an immediate difference on how I felt physically, emotionally and mentally. If anyone struggles with mental or physical problems I highly recommend Sarah Thompson to help them with overall health and well being. Prescription medication is what I wanted to avoid and with acupunture I feel like I found the best healthy alternative. I am very pleased, thank you Sarah!
Rita, I am so glad you had a positive experience not only with our clinic, but with Acupuncture in general. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: From the husbands point of view " Sarah was a Doula for my wife and I. She is a true professional and knows her stuff. She helped my wife prep for birth with certain diets and gave my wife acupuncture as well to help. She really understans how the body works with food. My wife came into a point where she needed to go into labor and after Sarah did some acupunture Ash started with some mild contractions! She was clutch when it came to the birthing process, help keep things cool and calm and recommend certain positions that helped pop that babe out. It worked too! Plus Sarah is a super cool lady and easy to get along with, after you interview you will see why she easily stands out from other doulas's. Thanks again Sarah!
Jon, working with your family was an honor! I find it very special when a couple chooses me to guide them through this very personal experience, so I THANK YOU, for that privilege!
Fantastic experience: This review is far overdue!! Sarah has become my health guru!! She walked me through my first pregnancy through acupuncture treatments and nutrition consult. These treatments were my only relief from morning (all the time) sickness and her recipes for each stage of pregnancy made sure I developed the healthiest baby! Her knowledge knows no limits as she has treated my husband as well for back and sport injuries through acupuncture, TENS and Cupping, always coming away with relief. She is the perfect blend of practitioner as her eastern medicine practices are effective and rooted in science and research ( for those western medicine mindsets that need to hear it). She is happy to educate, has a great bedside manner, and approaches health wholisticly. My husband and I work in the medical field amongst western medical doctors and Sarah has become our go to for all health related questions and treatments when needed. If you have unresolved, reoccurring, acute or chronic issues, I urge you to give Sarah a call and approach the issue differently. Lastly if it’s just well-being on your list for the new year, Sarah is still your person.... I can’t say enough!
Thank you Jamie. I hope you are your family are doing well on your new adventure. I sure miss you all in here in the office.
Fantastic experience: She is so talented and knows her stuff! She is easy to talk to and I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Thank you Denise!
Fantastic experience: Id like to say so many thanks and give so much love to the kind and devoted sentient beings at Sacred Vessel. I and I know it is difficult to be pioneering in this healing endeavor. It is daunting to teach folks a simultaneous reality that exists in the Eastern tradition, and yet once people "get it" their eyes grow large. Thats what we do we teach teach teach until they get it. I met a man who said that to be an enlightend being is difficult but doable. His name was George Harrison. We become one with samsara or the endless cycle of life, but oh when we do its all about inner peace. Bless all the hearts and hands at SVA.
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I saw Sarah for labor augmentation acupuncture on Tuesday and had a beautiful, peaceful, and all natural birth on Friday! Sarah is a skilled acupuncturist who is incredibly knowledgeable about all things pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum. I highly recommend Sacred Vessel Acupuncture to any woman looking for a healthy, natural childbirth experience.
Pregnancy is a bit of a passion for me, especially childbirth. In fact, I've devoted a large portion of my study and practice in supporting pregnancy & childbirth.
Fantastic experience: Sarah is a miracle worker. She has worked on me for a little over a month now and I have been free of migraines (heck headaches of any kind). She is intelligent, she has educated me on many things and she always explains in detail what she is doing and how it is going to help healing. I would highly recommend her services.
Thank you. Migraines can be hard to treat, and our goal is typically a decrease in severity and frequency. I'll take not have a headache at all as a treatment success. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I received acupuncture and doula services from Sarah . Her knowledge, expertise, and care helped make my pregnancy AND labor/delivery to be such a positive and beautiful experience. She's professional yet also provides a holistic approach to her services. What a gift to have landed upon such a top notch rock star doula! Highly recommended and forever appreciative :)
Thank you. Pregnancy and childbirth are my passion. My goal in doula work is to encourage you, as a couple, to have an amazing experience, and of course to make sure you are fully educated on what is happening in your body.
Fantastic experience: With my PCOS, I was going through a lot of fertility treatments with my OBGYN. I wanted to do everything I could to promote fertility in my body!! I had heard amazing things about acupuncture and about Sarah but had a fear of needles so I was too scared to try it. I met with Sarah and she was great. She talked me through my fears and was very patient with me. In the end I was able to complete several treatments. I feel that this aided me in my fertility treatments greatly!! Sarah is amazing. She has such a passion and talent for what she does!! Thank you Sarah!!!
Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Hiring Sarah for our prenatal care and delivery assistance was the best decision we ever made. In addition to being a doula, she is a certified nutritionist and acupuncturist so she had no trouble addressing any issues that came up. I had problems with muscle cramping later in pregnancy, which she helped me manage with supplements. I also got pretty bad heartburn the last few months that Sarah managed with acupuncture so I didn't have to take medication. We live in Cheyenne so she did house visits, which was amazing. She also came up in the middle of the night when I went into labor and labored with us at home until it was time to go to the hospital. If it hadn't been for her, I'm sure we would have ended up in the hospital way too early and the experience would have been entirely different. Even though I ended up with an epidural, her support and assistance throughout labor and delivery truly made our experience something amazing. Sarah is compassionate and knowledgeable and we can't imagine having delivered our daughter without her!!! We have been recommending her to everyone we know.
Thank you Kate.
Fantastic experience: Sarah went above and beyond with our prenatal care. I felt well-cared for. The environment was so very family-friendly and Sarah made my toddler feel so welcome. In addition to childbirth preparation acupuncture, she also taught us labor management points which we used very successfully. I highly recommend Sacred Vessel Acupuncture!
Thank you Claudia
Fantastic experience: I was about 22 weeks pregnant and starting to see a spike in my blood pressure. My midwife told me to think about acupuncture. (I didn't want to put any medication in my body.) I was the classic... "This is going to hurt" and “why would I willingly have someone put needles into my skin?" Well... when you are pregnant, you will do ANYTHING for your baby. My goal was to also have my little girl at home, so I "bucked up" and went to Sarah. From day one Sarah was kind, caring and compassionate about my situation. She showed me how tiny the needle is and how it wouldn't hurt. (Trust me, I ended up with them in my feet, head and sometimes even in my ears... and I lived!) The other bonus is she is a doula, so she always catered to me and my baby. I always felt safe and taken care of. I ended up going once a week and saw a tremendous change in my blood pressure. I looked forward to our visits. Even at the very end of pregnancy, Sarah was able to keep everything regulated. I am happy to say that I delivered my happy, healthy baby girl comfortably in my home. Sarah was able to not only drop my blood pressure but boost my confidence that I COULD do it! And I did!! If there is any hesitation about acupuncture, talk with Sarah. She is so phenomenal and I am so thankful to have met her!!
Thank you Maggie
