YOUR HEART IS FULL of fertile seeds, waiting to sprout.

We are so lucky to have found Nico. For years my children and I have struggled with autoimmune issues, digestive weaknesses, food sensitivities and ADHD. It will be a long journey, but Nico has put us firmly on the path to healing.

The first thing a client may notice about Nico is her gentle compassion and ability to listen. She carefully assesses her patient’s condition and tailors treatment accordingly. She draws upon a range of techniques such as acupuncture, massage, herbs, cupping and energy work. Her broad knowledge of healing modalities allows her to tap into the art as well as science of healing.

Nico further empowers her clients with practical tools to aid the healing process. Simple things like footbaths, acupressure magnets, feng shui tweaks and nutritional support all have contributed to my family’s health. Through Nico I’ve learned to honor the healing power of meditation and forgiveness practices. She stresses the importance of resolving the deeper, emotional roots of illness and not just physical symptoms.

My children and I feel stronger, calmer and more resilient now than we have in years. Nico has taught us a lot about what true health means, and I’m looking forward to learning more. Her service has been a blessing in our lives.

Nico has changed my life and I have learned so much from her. She is a master at her craft.

When I come in, I feel tremendous pain (sciatica, scoliosis, scapula issues, bulging discs – I’m only 34)! When I leave, my pain is greatly diminished & I feel so tranquil (Not an easy thing for me)!

Nico deserves so much praise for what she does – heals inside & out. I never write reviews (FT working mom) but want to recognize her for her outstanding abilities. She goes above and beyond for me. I should also add I was the biggest cynic when it came to acupuncture “mumbo jumbo” but Nico has turned me into a true believer!

When I came to see Nico, I was experiencing a lot of pain in my knees and legs, especially on the left side. Immediately after the treatment, I am amazed that not only has all my pain and stiffness disappeared, but also that I feel a profound sense of peace and quiet - something I associate more with the results of deep relaxation or meditation than with acupuncture. Truly remarkable. I feel much, MUCH better now. Thank you!

I am very grateful to have found Nico Bishop. I had been searching for someone who had a wealth of knowledge and experience in acupuncture and the natural healing of Chinese medicine. Nico fit everything I was looking for and more. The relief I feel after each session is far beyond what any deep tissue massage or chiropractor visit has ever done for me. What has impressed me most is that with each visit my relief last longer and longer. I feel like my body is actually healing and that I’m not just spending money to put on another temporary bandage.

Nico is very professional and always prompt. You can really tell she loves what she does and cares about the health of each person she treats. She tailors each session to the individual needs of the client. She takes the time at the beginning of each session to talk about your health and what you would like to focus on that day. After seeing my immediate results my brother and sister have also gone to Nico. They both have their own unique issues that Nico has been able to address and help resolve.

Dear Nico,
I want you to know how much I appreciate your acupuncture treatment, “grounding” work, and consultation last week. You have very special beneficial qualities for medicine practice. Thank you!
