Acupuncture for Pain Relief

“I am grateful for her because she was the first doctor to actually listen to me and help me advocate for my own health”

Originally went to Dr. Fischler for knee pain. I also have had abnormal Pap smears for two years and noticed that she had helped a lot of women seeking health care so thought she might have some advice for me. During our consultation I told her about having abnormal Pap smears and having multiple doctors dismiss me when I thought something was wrong. Dr. Fischler recommended a OBGYN for to see. After meeting that OBGYN they determined I needed a colposcopy, which results came back that I have an early stage of cervical cancer that I am able to get taken care of. I wouldn’t have found this out if I hadn’t gone to Dr. Fischler.

“Thank you Kine and Willow Tree!”

I have been working with Kine for close to 9 months. When I first met Kine, I had experienced an early miscarriage several months earlier that left me with ongoing pelvic/abdominal pain and hormonal changes that my primary care team was unable to treat. Kine helped regulate my cycles and really served as a listening, kind ear when I was experiencing stressors outside of our wishes to start a family. Kine also helped me prep for my first round of IVF and I am continuing to see her as we await next steps. I found it extremely helpful that she encouraged me to ask my fertility doctors the right questions. I am a bit older than all of my girlfriends here in Portland and at a different life stage - so I don't know anyone personally in town who has been through IVF. It has been wonderful to have Kine help normalize everything that I am experiencing and her support has made me feel less alone in this.

“I highly recommend her!”

Dr. Kiné Fischler helped me through a time of extreme pain and stress caused by women's health issues (fibroids, cramps, etc.). After surgery in 2014, pain returned in 2018, 2019 and into 2020. My OBGYN was out of ideas so I turned to acupuncture and I am so glad I did. While I feel mostly healed now, I still want to go back because my overall wellbeing is enhanced by going. Acupuncture works wonders for stress and anxiety in addition to physical ailments. Dr. Kiné Fischler is extremely knowledgeable and talented.

“A wonderful development.”

Kine introduced me to acupuncture. We have been working on reducing chronic pain exacerbated by several operations. The pain began to diminish after several acupuncture sessions and I now go for nearly a week with little or no pain. Kine is very present, clear and calm. She has helped me to set health goals that are realistic and make intuitive sense. After a revolving door of hospital visits I'm now participating in my own recovery. ]
