Testimonials

 Acupuncture

"Acupuncture with Anisha has greatly improved my overall physical and psychological health in so many different ways.  My physical self is now virtually pain free and functions much better than ever before.  I feel much more balanced and centered, facing life with a new calmness and serenity.  Anisha is gifted, intuitive, and very knowledgeable in the art and science of acupuncture and Qi Gong healing.  Kind, patient, empathic, nurturing and understanding - a positive energy surrounds Anisha and her work.  She has helped me gain a deeper awareness of my body, mind, and spirit in order to take better care of myself.  I’ve been so pleased with Anisha’s work that I also take my adolescent son for regular treatments. He loves the experience and what it has done for his overall physical and mental well being.  Anisha is a true healer that I would highly recommend to anyone wishing to try alternative healthcare therapies.  I am grateful to have her in my life as part of my healthcare team."

  "In June of this year I began to have Panic attacks. No one knew what they were until I had the second one. As anyone who has experienced Panic attacks knows what they are like and that you just want them to go away. After a horrible reaction to anti-anxiety medicine I finally got lucky with Zoloft. Thinking that this would help me conquer this horrible nightmare that ruled my life,  I started to feel almost myself again. That was short lived. In the beginning of September I had to go to the emergency room for feeling so bad.  I was given several tests and found out then my liver was inflamed. After many blood test,  scans and a MRI the doctors could not pinpoint why this had happened.  Scared and at my wits end I decided to contact Anisha, a licensed acupunturist that I had met at the Pyschic Fair in august.  I had heard so many wonderful things about acupuncture so I thought that this could help me.  It turns out that making that phone call to Anisha has been the best thing.  At our first meeting Anisha told me what I knew in my heart and that was that my liver had been congested from all the medicines I had been taking. The doctors did not want to admit it but I knew that is what it was from. My first meeting was short but so very effective.  After just 20 minutes of acupuncture, the next day I began to feel like I had months before. My head was clear and I felt like I had energy again. I have been  three times since that day and I am feeling better each time.  Anisha has helped me so much. I could never thank her enough for what she has done. I still have several sessions left but I am finally feeling like myself. Acupuncture is a miracle and I am so happy to have decided to make it a part of my healing, both physically and mentally.

" The best way to describe Anisha’s class is dreamy! Her classes are just the right mix of challenging poses and spiritual balance. I leave her class feeling as though I am in peaceful harmony with the universe."

--- D. Bylaska

 

I first met Anisha in February of 2008 when she came to one of my classes as a student at Cohasset Yoga Center. I was touched and impressed by this woman's commitment and intention to practice and teach yoga. Many students express an interest and ask me about teaching but few really have the willingness to immerse themselves into the practice in order to be a better teacher.  Anisha has a quiet confidence in her approach to teaching and an amazing openness and ability to connect to her students. Anisha loves the practice of yoga and that comes through in her teaching.  She values each student and is very present, attentive and dedicated. Anisha was only with us for a short time but she left a very deep impression on me and on this yoga community. We were very sad when she left.

 -- M. Norton, Director of the Cohasset Yoga Center
