Vim + Vita Integrative Acupuncture, Burbank

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
In addition to being a licensed acupuncturist, I'm also a certified trainer so I can thoroughly evaluate postural and movement issues and muscular imbalances that may be leading to pain. I specialize in sports medicine, fertility (male and female), women's health and stress management.

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
I have worked in the health and fitness realm for 20 years and I wanted to do something that was more hands on that can help patients improve their lives, feel better and reach their performance and other life goals.

What do you love most about your job?
I love it when a client gets off my treatment table and feels better. Knowing I helped someone overcome a health problem (with minimal side effects and no prescription drugs) is satisfying.

What is the best reaction you've ever gotten from a customer?
"My pain is gone" is just about the best thing I can hear. "You have really strong, good energy" was another welcome compliment. When clients continue to come back, that tells me all I need to know.
