Testimonials

"This season while playing for the Everett Silvertips I have seen Sarah Contreras multiple times for massage therapy. Sarah has been very helpful in my recovery process. I have had many bumps and bruises throughout the season, that along with the bus rides has lead to fatigue and sore muscles. Working with Sarah has helped alleviate my soreness and get me ready for the next big game.

I would recommend Sarah Contreras as a massage therapist. Sarah’s skills have been useful all season long. I will visit Sarah again for treatments whenever I am in Everett."

"When I first started going to Sarah Contreras for relief of hot flashes and night sweats, I was only sleeping about 4 hrs. a night. Within a few weeks I started to experience relief. The weekly treatments were virtually painless and I always felt better after each session.

I would recommend acupuncture to anyone seeking an alternative avenue to the discomfort of menopausal symptoms. Today I sleep an average of 7-9 hrs. a night and that is drug free."

"I have worked with Sarah Contreras as both a patient and in a professional capacity. I fully endorse Sarah as a massage therapist and as an acupuncturist. Sarah is an energetic, caring individual and these qualities are made clear to every patient.

Personally Sarah has been a great help to me over the last few years. Sarah’s acupuncture skills have helped me with a number of maladies. I have had Celiac Disease for about 7 years. Sarah’s acupuncture treatments have helped me to alleviate the pain and cramping associated with this disease. Sarah has also been irreplaceable when helping me with my chronic back, foot and sinus pain. The acupuncture treatments have made a dramatic impact on my daily pain level. I make a point of seeing Sarah regularly because my line of work tends to aggravate my chronic low back pain.

Professionally I have worked with Sarah Contreras for the past two seasons. Sarah has worked as a massage therapist for the Everett Silvertips and has been a huge part of our management of injuries throughout the hockey season. Sarah does an excellent job working with our athletes helping to minimize chronic pain, and accelerate the healing process of new injuries. Sarah’s skills as a massage therapist are top notch. Sarah has done a great job working with players who have poor flexibility, chronic injuries, and the usual aches and pains that come with playing hockey in the Western Hockey League.

Without a doubt I would recommend Sarah Contreras as a thorough and experienced practitioner. Sarah is an excellent resource here in Everett. "

"After being in a motor vehicle accident, traditional medicine was not helping my neck and shoulder pain. My physician referred me to Sarah for acupuncture. I hate needles, but was willing to try anything. Sarah and her office are both tranquil and soothing. She explained all procedures and gave me a crash course in Chinese medicine. I now look forward to my visits. I leave with a sense of well being and my pain is virtually gone. I have and will continue to recommend her to everyone I know. Sarah game me my life back."

"I started going to Sarah for acupuncture back in December for infertility having endometriosis. After seeing Sarah for approximately one month at weekly visits, my endometriosis pain has gotten 90% better. I believe that the acupuncture had a major affect on my infertility as well.

I went ahead with in vitro after 3 months of consistent visits and was successful. Sarah has been great, she has tried different techniques that have worked very well on me. I would highly recommend her to everyone. Thank you Sarah for all you’ve done for me."

"I was referred to Sarah Contreras at Acupuncture Resources when my lower back pain was so bad I could barely walk, let alone hold my 20lb baby on my hip.

With 2 small children at home, continuous pain medication is just not an option for me. During my first session, Sarah gave me a thorough assessment and a very gentle treatment. Immediately after, the pain was noticeably better. The next morning I was amazed at how much more mobile & pain-free I was after just one treatment.

I will continue visit Acupuncture Resources for preventative treatment & I am so grateful to Sarah for helping me. I have been recommending her to anyone who even mentions back pain around me! She is professional, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. "

"As a patient of Sarah’s I have been consistently impressed with her compassion, genuine desire to help and effective practices. Sarah not only listens and explores the root cause of the pain, but she is committed to helping resolve the issue long-term.
