Brad has been such a pleasure to work with and often gets my body rebooted very quickly. His attention to detail and working knowledge of his craft is fundamentally the reason I rely on his expertise. Ive been seeing him for a few years now for maintenance and acute pain. Highly recommend Hummingbird and all they have to offer.

Joaquina has the magic. Top notch TCM practitioner. I have been using acupuncture for 15 years and just switched to her after my previous practitioner moved away

I have been coming to Hummingbird Acupuncture Clinic for over a year. Joaquina is the best acupuncturist I’ve ever been to. She is also caring, intuitive, and down to earth. She sees what’s not working and always makes gentle but solid suggestions on how to improve the situation. I have found it easy to follow her practical instructions and noticed a big improvement in my health. I’ve even been able to change some of my less constructive habits that I was not otherwise able to prior to coming in. The clinic itself is centrally located with easy parking. It’s easy to relax in the space too. I would not hesitate to recommend coming here.

Bradley and Joaquina are absolutely amazing!! I have been seeing Bradley for over a year now. I travel from Denver to see them specifically.I had an old shoulder injury from being active duty Airforce that gave me chronic aching pain... I now live pain free thanks to Bradley!I highly highly recommend seeking their care.

Joaquina is not only devoted to her masterful skill but I truly believe she is committed to her patients’ wellbeing. If you’re dealing with pain physically and/or emotionally definitely recommend going to Hummingbird Community Acupuncture.

I have been an acupuncture fan for years and pretty recently moved to Colorado. I received an enthusiastic reference for Hummingbird Acupuncture and have benefited greatly from their focused care and attention. The treatment I have received there has helped me tremendously! I have no trouble getting an appointment and am always attended to promptly.

Big fan of both Joaquina and Bradley for acupuncture. Ive found my sessions to be especially effective in decreasing the frequency and severity of my migraine headaches as well as getting acute treatment when I have an active headache. You know somethings working when you came in unable to look at a bright light and leave able to look at that same light. I cannot argue with success. This team has helped me manage my headaches and more.

I love Kats massages so much. She is so embodied, attuned, attentive, and caring, and my body always feels a hundred times more relaxed and flexible after seeing her. I feel grateful to have met such a beautiful soul and hope to see her for massages like literally for forever. :)

I’m a therapist as well and absolutely love Bradley and Joaquina’s work! Bradley’s deep trigger point/myofacscial work and Joaquina’s healing acupuncture sessions make everything feel balanced again.

Review №14

As a first-timer to acupuncture, I was pretty freaked out and skeptical to the idea of someone sticking needles in my body. However, Joaquina and Bradley have such incredible ability to tune into and deliver individualized treatments to their patients based on their needs, I cannot recommend their services enough!Since I was a child, Ive suffered from chronic migraines, neck pain and back pain and I thought being pain-free was not an option for me. Even after the first treatment, I was blown away by how much it helped to alleviate my chronic symptoms. After about 6 or 7 treatments I can legitimately say I am pain-free!! They have also helped me with PTSD, gastrointestinal issues and soft tissues injuries. Believe all the reviews that you read because these two are truly both incredible!Not to mention they have an INCREDIBLY AFFORDABLE SLIDING SCALE PRICING for their services.

Review №15

There are many choices for acupuncture in Boulder. I went to several others before hearing about Joaquina from friends. I am so glad to have found a compassionate practicioner with much medical knowledge that tunes in to my needs. She offers practical and wise counsel on nutrition, suppliments, and suggestions for incorporating holistic life choices. Her medicine has healed me from serious illnessness that no one else could address. My husband sees Bradley who also offers excellent care, and my kids are also well taken care of in this practice. She is a rare and skilled healer, a rarity in this town.

I have been seeing Joaquina for only a week and my life is already changing. My first visit, she cured me of an “intractable” migraine that had been going strong for 7 days. She is truly talented and tapped in with acupuncture and healing. I am so grateful to be under her care.

Review №18

Joaquina was able to address my health issues in a way nobody else had before . She was very knowledgeable about what was happening and listened to me with a lot of care and attention. She has been essential to my healing. Her unique integral approach was incredibly important, and she is extremely professional. I feel so much better and I cant recommend her enough. She has been essential to my healing.

Review №19

I have a chronic condition and have been receiving acupuncture and herbs for my condition. I have seen improvement and am extremely pleased by my treatment at Hummingbird. I had been an acupuncturist when I was younger so I speak from experience when I say that my treatments from both Joaquina and Bradley have been very helpful. Hummingbird has a warm caring atmosphere by two excellent acupuncturists.

Review №20

Joaquina and Bradley are miracle workers! I completely dislocated my knee mid-October, and four weeks later, neither my PT nor my orthopedic surgeon nor my osteopath could get it to bend. I was doing all the exercises, but my leg just stuck straight out in front of me. I went to Hummingbird as my PCP had recommended them, and after the first session my knee started bending again! I have gone almost every week since. I cannot express how grateful I am for their help and their many skills. Go to them, stay there, feel better. Let them fix whatever ails you. Amelia

I have had wonderful results from acupuncture sessions with Samhitta. I have visited for many different issues over the years, and am always happy with the results. She is the best practitioner that I have been too, and a pleasure to be around as well. I cannot recommend the Community Acupuncture Clinic highly enough.

Review №22

Bradley is the best as far as I am concerned. He has helped me deal with a myriad of issues that have come up in the past year that I have been seeing him regularly. Dealing with forearm and wrist issues? He’s seen it before and the treatment is a huge help in correcting the issue. Weird muscle injuries, maybe a tear or a lot of pain? He will help diagnose and treat the muscles that are causing the issue. I thoroughly trust his judgement, and I think his results speak for themselves.

Review №23

Samhitta at Community acupuncture is so professional and she understands oriental medicine and how the body works. She has been doing treatments for me and I have more energy and things are just all working better. Her gentle touch and calm manner makes it a peaceful place to get treatments. I highly recommend her!!

Review №24

EDIT: A year later and I am increasingly impressed with the results Im getting from this place. Im still training hard and Bradley is still there to tweak, and fix me, even on short notice.My body requires maintenance. From small aches and pains to injuries from pushing too hard in my pursuit of being an athlete. Its frustrating to have to slow down and let your body heal but with Bradley Ive found an excellent teammate for this journey.So far he has completely healed a shoulder injury, and in just one visit was able to give my wrist more range of motion than Id had in months!I cant recommend him and his practice highly enough, Im incredibly excited to have found someone who understands my physical practice and can really keep me going at 100%.

Joaquina has a healing gift - being able to see and know what needs healing physically, energetically, and emotionally. She knows where the energetic blockages are and customizes her treatments to clear them. I highly recommend her and trying a few a sessions on a regular basis so you can see for yourself the shifts that can be made in your system and life.

Review №26

Joaquina is the best, her treatment improved my health significantly! She has been kind, welcoming, extremely supportive and attentive to both my physical pain and emotional stress. The treatments not only healed many of my physical issues, but also maintain my health and prevents me from getting sick. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is dealing with any health issue!

Review №27

The BEST acupuncture in the Boulder area! Joaquina and Bradley are true healers. I came to them with a lot of pain and very low energy. After six treatments I felt like a new human being. The amount of care and attention to detail they put into their practice is above and beyond any acupuncture place I have ever been to. Joaquina’s herbal teas have done wonders for me too. I highly recommend Hummingbird Community Acupuncture. They will restore you back to your happy, healthy self. Thank you Joaquina and Bradley for everything.

Joaqina hasn’t been working on me long, but I already see a BIG difference in my digestion, mood and energy. Who knew they were all linked?! Since working with her I have seen major improvements in my bodily function, thus giving me the opportunity to work on my mind and spirit. Thank you, raves and praises for Hummingbird Community Accupunture!

Joaquina and Bradly have both worked on me for various old injuries and I am so happy to say that my pain level has dropped tremendously as well as my mobility increasing. The combination of each of their amazing skills worked so well for me after years of searching for help. Thank you again!

Both Bradley and Jouquina are excellent at what they do. Bradley in particular has helped a chronic back pain issue I had been dealing with for years. I could not recommend their service any higher.

Joaquina and Bradley are truly some of the most knowledgeable and caring people that I have had the fortune of meeting. Joaquina has helped me so much with both allergies and digestive issues, while Bradley helps whenever I have pain in my back and neck. I cannot recommend their practice enough.

My family has seen Samhitta with different complaints for many years. She has always been very helpful, knowledgeable, warm and professional. I have send many friends and colleagues to her and get wonderful feedback from them as well. We trust in her deep understanding of Chinese Medicine, her many years of experience and her wonderful touch. Samhitta has been very generous as a resource for referrals and questions about diet, supplements, lifestyle etc. I strongly recommend her clinic to anyone.

Samhitta is excellent. She remembers and plans ahead so that the progression of the work is noticeable. She achieves results. I will continue to take advantage of her expertise with regularity.

Review №36

Ive been seeing Samhitta every week for the past half year. She is deeply proficient, considerate, and effective. Not just sticking needles, Samhitta tailors each treatment to my body and mind at that moment. She is a critical part of my journey battling Lyme disease and I couldnt recommend her enough. The clinic always feels peaceful and pleasant as well!

Review №37

My family has benefited tremendously from the services that Joaquina provides at Hummingbird. She is amazingly intuitive with a very deep background that she draws on to treat and heal those lucky enough to find her tucked away in our Boulder community. She has helped us cure things like chronic headaches and manage an uncommon inflammatory eosinophilic disease. Go see her!

Review №38

Joaquina is a master healer... The vibe here is very calm and open, prices are surprisingly reasonable and the location is convenient. Joaquina can handle the intense stuff and the milder self-care without blinking an eye. I think she has magic powers...

Review №39

I began seeing Samhitta in 2010 for help with chronic allergies and asthma, as well as on-going digestive complaints. Having worked with other acupuncturists in the past, I placed a high level of expectation on what I hoped to achieve through our healing relationship. The care I’ve received at Community Acupuncture Clinic in Boulder has consistently exceeded those expectations. I confidently refer Samhitta’s clinic to anyone who is truly invested in their own healing process.

Review №40

As a registered nurse, Im the first to admit traditional Western medicine does not have all the answers. I began going to Samhitta last year when my doctor suggested surgery to remove my gallbladder. Samhittas knowledge of nutrition and diet, along with her great skill as an acupuncturist has changed my life. Im free of pain, and avoided unnecessary surgery.

Review №41

You wont find a more caring and knowledgable clinic around. Theyve helped me with stress, joint and muscle problems, injuries, and even emotional issues I was going through. They know how to treat the body, mind, and soul - not just stick needles in you. Cant recommend a better place to go!

It took me a while to find a new acupuncturist after my previous one moved away, and I am so glad I found Joaquina. Joaquina has helped alleviate pain in my wrist and helps keep me healthy during snowboarding season. I highly recommend her!

Review №44

Joaquina is amazing. Her deep intuition and gentle presence guides the treatment process in a way that is uniquely beneficial. I am experiencing results I have never seen with any other acupuncturist.And Bradley insights as an athlete have been invaluable to me. It is the first time I have worked with an acupuncturist who could coach me on how to heal while still continuing my althletic pursuits.I cant recommend Joaquina and Bradley highly enough.

To feel so at peace and cared for from a practitioner and healer is truly a blessing! I have been looking for someone that I can trust and go to for preventative and wholistic health care for body, mind & spirit. Joaquina is truly a diamond in the rough!!! Her clinic has become an oasis for me and every time I leave, I look forward to the next visit with her as I know it is the best thing I can be doing for myself. Thank you Joaquina!!!

Review №46

After a diagnosis of Lyme disease, co-infections and later Bells Palsy, Ive had a crazy ride in the last year as I have journeyed back to a place of health. Ive been blessed to assemble an amazing team of health practitioners that stretches from Portsmouth, NH to Boulder, Colorado! For me, the most integral component of a leap forward in my health came when I began treatment with Joaquina. I only visit Boulder every few months, but each visit includes time at Hummingbird Community Acupuncture. Joaquinas intuitive awareness and varied array of healing modalities have helped me regain both physical and emotional balance once again. I deeply appreciate Joaquinas gifts and am honored to be a recipient of them.

Review №49

I was in the healing field for a number of years and recently was wrestling some eczema issues. I tried a number of things before coming to Samhitta. I immediately starting getting results from the sessions. Now a few months later I still wrestle about 10% of what I was dealing with when I first saw her. I wish Id taken pictures so you could see the difference. I find Samhitta very professional and she works hard at helping me wrestle my health issues. She has truly gone above and beyond in her work with me and Id recommend her to anyone.

Joaquina is a godsend. To give you an idea, I have diagnosed Crohns disease, I was a cigarette smoker, and I have breathing issues as well as anxiety issues. I was skeptical about getting acupuncture but from the moment I met Joaquina, I knew I was in excellent hands. I have only been seeing her for a month, and the Crohns issue I originally went in for was solved within a week, and I have quit smoking. Not only is she obviously an attuned and well-trained acupuncturist, but she is one of the most kind people Ive ever met. Could not speak more highly of the services she offers!

Review №52

I started seeing her for my general health (indigestion, fatigue and allergy) and fertility in summer 2012. My health has improved greatly since I have received a regular treatment from her and I conceived my baby in Dec 2012. As my due was getting closer, I asked Samhitta to give me a treatment at my birth because I know acupuncture works well for promoting labor and pain relief. I didnt want any medical intervention and I chose acupuncture to support the natural vaginal labor. She gladly said yes. I gave birth at Foothills on Aug 27 in 2013 and she was there. Fortunately she was one of few acupuncturists who were accredited to treat in the hospital. Samhitta was a true gift that night. We called her on our way to the hospital at night and she came promptly after we arrived at the birth center and (to our surprise) she stayed to the end the whole time for 6 hours!!! She helped me with acupuncture whenever we needed a break-through at difficult moments. I believe that her medicine made my labor much easier. However her presence was more than her medicine. She was there for us with strong and unshakable presence, which was so much support to me. I don’t know how to appreciate her. She is an excellent acupuncturist and herbalist with profound knowledge and clinical experiences. However what makes me trust her most is her good heart to truly care for others. Thank you, Samhitta from all my family.

I cannot say enough good things about Joaquina as a practitioner. I have been a patient of hers since 2015. After a period of not feeling healthy overall I turned to acupuncture. Joaquina views the body holistically and was able to help me stabilize my digestion, thyroid, and other imbalances, which affected my fertility and health in general. By working with me to take the proper supplements, fertility teas, reduce stress, and teaching me how to track my cycles I was able to get pregnant within the first month of actively trying. I’ve continued seeing Joaquina throughout my pregnancy and have felt extremely healthy. I cannot thank her enough. I definitely consider her a partner in my healthcare and highly recommend her as a practitioner.

Review №54

Joaquina has been a gift and blessing to my overall health and well-being. I began seeing Joaquina after several failed fertility treatments and continue to see her in conjunction with my fertility doctor. Joaquina has been a huge part of my overall fertility treatment plan and has helped me view fertility holistically, including diet, emotional, and physical health. Joaquina is incredibly intuitive and a true healer. I have felt the wonderful benefits of her gifts across several healing modalities, and I highly recommend her to anyone, especially to other women seeking treatment for fertility issues.

I arrived with an 8 cm mass inside my kidney. Kaiser originally wanted to remove my kidney. After just the very first acupuncture session with Joaquina Cante, i could feel my kidney getting better by leaps and bounds!! Two days after my first treatment i had an MRI and the results were nothing short of a miracle ...no need to operate.!!!! I was just at the Community Acupuncture clinic today for my 3rd treatment ! I am getting soo much better i can literally feel my kidney shrinking back down !!! I was put on a special diet to bring down my inflammation . Homeopathic tinctures and certain supplements have also made a huge difference !! I am soo grateful and relieved to the point where i am very hopeful for my future and i have to share the good news!! I truly want others to benefit from this clinics expertise. They naturally talented and acurate and have put very hard work into helping any who seek their healing touch! ♡ I LOVE YOU GUYS THANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR MY NEW LIFE !

Review №56

May I first say, I have been treated by many, yet I found Samhittas approach completely different and as a net result, what should have always been. While my former treatments were always on some level beneficial, my first treatment with Samhitta was quite different, impact-ful and much longer lasting. I look forward to my next treatment.Larry B.

I was so impressed with Joaquina and my whole experience at Community Acupuncture Clinic Boulder yesterday, which was the first time I had ever been there. Joaquina is so talented and is a gifted healer! I have been in severe pain in my lower back for several days (and have been battling it off and on for 15 years) and could barely get out of bed or off the couch yesterday because of the pain.I was a bit skeptical about acupuncture going in to the appointment because I am a veterinarian trained in Western medicine and also because I have had acupuncture in the past a few times, and it didnt work.However, Joaquina was amazing! She intuitively seemed to know how heal me. Although when I left the office I didnt notice a difference in my pain, once I got home and throughout the evening, I felt so much better!! My pain was significantly improved, and I felt generally relaxed and at peace also. This is more than I could have expected from any one treatment from any type of doctor. I have been seeing doctors for several years for pain, and she helped more than all of them have. I was shocked that this worked so quickly, and so happy with the results!I will definitely continue to see Joaquina and I would highly recommend her to anyone who is dealing with pain.Thanks Joaquina! You have opened up my eyes to a whole new world of healing and I am so grateful to you!

I first sought out to Samhitta at Community Acupuncture for peri-menopausal struggles including intense hot flashes and wild mood swings. Her nurturing care and expert treatment gave me shockingly fast relief, and helped me return to balance -- with my sensuality and sense of humor intact! Community Acupuncture has become my go-to remedy for virtually any ailment Ive faced -- including sciatica, stress, digestive problems, shoulder pain and emotional support through a divorce. The mini-miracles amaze me every time! I feel such ease and grace after every session its like Ive had a spa treatment. Working with Samhitta is a blessing and is a central part of maintaining my healthy, vital life.

Review №59

My wife and I have been going to Samhitta at Community Acupuncture for years. We have benefitted so much from both Samhitta’s expertise in acupuncture and herbal medicine. My wife had been dealing with some pain and discomfort in her shoulder/neck area from sitting at her computer and travelling on airlines. Through a series of visits my wife is now nearly pain free. Recently I’d been dealing with pain in my sciatic. No matter how much stretching and exercising it never seemed to completely go away. As a result of additional training Samhitta was able to dramatically ease my pain. It’s the first time in a long time that I’ve had this much relief. I’d almost forgotten what it was like to get an entire night’s worth of sleep! Thanks Samhitta!
