It has been a blessing to have Laura Christensen do acupuncture on me. Her experience and knowledge about what she is doing and why she is doing it is comforting and she approaches things with a very realistic mindset! Collyn, the office administrator, is super polite and a pleasure to work with as well! I recommend Acupuncture of Iowa to anyone and I'm always looking forward to my next appointment.

I sought this form of alternative care due to the longevity of my health issues. What a blessing! My migraines have diminished and no longer have prolonged periods controlling my day-to-day living. This form of acupuncture has increased the quality of my life, please understand this is not an immediate cure all. This is a form of treatment, a treatment which is continuing to produce results.

I have been seeing Laura for going on three years now. I thought it was time for a review! You will not find an acupuncturist like her. I have been to other acupuncturists and they were not near her level of service and expertise. She is a needle in a haystack (pun intended). Her initial consultation is very thorough. I initially began seeing her for pain and when my spinal and back pain resolved and never returned, since then I just kept going. I drive from Cedar Rapids to see her. If you are anxious about acupuncture, Laura knows how to assist with that. I just may be her most anxious one and she was able to quiet that down significantly. I never felt like a burden with my anxiety. She just knew how to aid in it. She is extremely knowledgeable and confident in all things acupuncture. You will be opened up to different ways of treatment as she has many tools in her toolbox. She is constantly learning and she is humble. She is always attending a class or teaching up and coming acupuncturists. Her practice evolves. She will navigate your treatment if it is not working and try something else. Her genuine bedside manner and personal nature in addition to the aforementioned skills is why I keep coming back. She has the wit of Bea Arthur in her theater days which I appreciate. You will find her exuding empathy and intuitiveness. She truly cares about each individual patient. You can tell her calling is a holistic healer. Last but not least she has a fairly newer acupuncturist addition named Nicole who is wonderful. She is a positive light and makes you feel welcome. She is also knowledgeable. The front desk staff, Collyn, is amazing as well. She has a calming and friendly demeanor. There are membership packages which I recommend if you choose to be a regular like me. All I ask is you do not take my spot and time!--Angie

This place is truly fabulous. Laura Christensen is a wealth of knowledge and has changed my life for the better. I came to her with chronic sinus issues and feeling depleted after the birth of my third child. Through her patience, kindness, knowledge and care, my sinus issues have disappeared, and I am on my way back to balancing my hormones and becoming the healthiest I have ever been.

Raised in a family surrounded by allopathic doctors I was taught to trust and not question the medical establishment. After years of being talked down to, misled, harmed and abandoned, I have finally found someone that cares about true health and has the knowledge and experience to earn my trust.

You will not regret coming here. You are treated with the utmost care from all the staff. Five stars!

I am so glad I found Laura Christensen and Acupuncture of Iowa. She really takes the time to understand my concerns and help me resolve them. With a very complicated problem, she is persistent and willing to try new approaches to help me get the care I need. I love that the dogs are there to greet me and get a little attention.

Laura Christensen is simply the best acupuncturist in Iowa! My back pain from severe arthritis disappeared with one well placed needle and hasn't come back; it's been six months and no pain!!!

I have been working with Laura for about a year now. All of my digestive issues are improving or resolving. I have fewer issues with food intolerances, migraines and low motility. Additionally, my immune system has rallied and I am no longer subject to frequent hospitalizations to combat bacterial infections. Laura's in depth knowledge of meridians, microbiome based medicine and herbal supplements is instrumental in the improvement and continued improvement of my health and quality of life. Her direct approach to health care is uncomplicated and refreshing. Thank you Laura for your thoughtful and passionate care.

So lucky to have Laura Christensen working with me to figure out my GI issues, retaining fluids and now my A-Fib problems. Laura will help you with any issues you may have.
