I first went to see Dr. Boxer for shoulder pain due to a frozen shoulder. I had been going to physical therapy for months with no improvement and constant pain. Doctors referred me to pain management treatment and prescribed strong pain medication. However, I didn't want to take that route and depend on pain medication. I mentioned this to a friend and she recommended I go see Dr. Boxer for the pain.

Within a few visits of acupuncture with Dr. Boxer my pain was gone, after a few more visits the mobility on my shoulder came back. I've been pain free for years. I continue to see Dr. Boxer as part of self care and well-being. She's amazing! She's responsive and accommodating. She's an expert in her field, shares her knowledge and has excellent bedside manners.

It was my first and very good experience with acupuncture. I wanted to avoid a medical induction so I was trying to find another way. My doula has referred me to Mindy. It took only 1 session and things get started! So, in 2 days I was in labor very naturally and easy. Office is easy to access, the atmosphere here is calm and peaceful. Perfect place and good treatment!

Where do I begin? Dr. Boxer is simply life changing. She is that rare combination of practitioner, both loving and highly knowledgeable. She is committed to helping others. Has been practicing for over 20 years. Currently, I see her once a week and her sublime acupuncture treatments, along with nutritional counseling, are guiding back to full health from Pancreatic Cancer. Go see her. You can thank me later.

I really love Mindy and as a doula I send her a lot of my pregnant clients and they are always very satisfied. I have sent her moms who had never had acupuncture before but needed a little help getting things started to avoid a medical induction and it almost never failed. With Mindy's love and ability to get the moms calm and welcoming many of my clients following their visits with her, experienced a gentle birth

I started seeing Dr. Mindy Boxer for acupuncture treatments in February. I was almost 39 and wanted to start a family. I had anticipated it taking a while to get pregnant and having to undergo potentially stressful and costly fertility treatments. But my husband and I found out in March that we were able to get pregnant on our own and would have our first child in November!

I have to think that the acupuncture, which reduces stress and is reported to improve fertility, as well as the supplements Dr. Boxer provided and the guidance she offered for adopting a more healthful diet all contributed to our ability to get pregnant quickly. Dr. Boxer is knowledgeable, nurturing, has a positive energy, and is fun to work with.

I look forward to my sessions with her each week, and so far I've had a relatively smooth pregnancy. I highly recommend Dr. Boxer for help with stress, fertility and nutrition.

I tried a few different acupuncturist in Santa Monica and found that while the treatments worked for my upper back pain, the experience was much like going to the dentist. Then I started going to Dr. Boxer and had a whole different experience. The treatment rooms are very relaxing and spa like, not at all clinical like the others. Dr. Boxer also adds lots of nice touches, like tea while you're waiting and music of your choice while in treatment.

She did a very thorough assessment of my health, including diet, sleep, stress, medications and personal questions to see how they could be contributing to the pain and how she could customize my treatments. This was way beyond the standard form every doctor gives you to fill out and then promptly ignores. Dr. Boxer herself is very personable and has an obvious and very genuine interest in the well being of her patients.

She has no staff and there is no bureaucracy around the visit, which is a welcome change from the typical medical office. Getting an appointment was always pretty easy in the two years I saw her regularly. Free street and easy meter parking is also abundant.
