CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

“Truly enchanting, Dr. Johnsen’s exceptional technique and nurturing demeanor made my experience all the better. I haven’t received treatment in a while due to Covid: having a hard time sourcing the right Acupuncturist, I am glad I did my research to find one of the best.  Dr. Johnsen offered me several different options for approaching my condition and explained how each would work and where I would see change down the line. She took the time to listen and connect with me, breaking things down so that I’d not only be able to see but understand what treatment approach she was taking. Thank you for all your knowledge of acupuncture and Chinese medicine and your warming energy!!”

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

“I have been seeing Dr. Johnsen for over 4 years now, and she has helped me work through various conditions including help with my chronic fatigue, insomnia and various sports injuries. The Healing Nest is such a relaxing and welcoming environment, and I alway leave feeling so at peace and well taken care of. Dr. Johnsen always customizes each treatment to exactly what I need. We have done a combination of acupuncture, auricular acupuncture, moxibustion, fire cupping, gua sha and microneedling. I always look forward to my appointments at The Healing Nest, and I would give it 100 stars if I could! 100% recommend to anyone looking for holistic treatments in San Diego.”

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

“I would 100% recommend the microneedling treatment. I am so happy with the results. Dr. Johnsen did such an amazing job and informed me of every step she was doing during the procedure. I was shocked after a few days how even and clean my face looked. I also really did feel like my skin had a “glow” to it. I would absolutely recommend her to family and friends!”

It was amazing how it literally turned my bad mood upside down. She made me feel so right at home and the space has such good vibes! I highly recommend for anyone needing a little extra support and good energy in their lives!”
