Acupuncture needles are very different from thick, hollow hypodermic needles. These needles are slightly thicker than a human hair and their insertion is barely perceptible. Patients who visit Path to Wellness are usually pleasantly surprised that the procedure is practically pain-free and very relaxing-many or our patients even fall asleep during their treatments.

To me her office is the most peaceful place on earth. I have been going to Dr. Maureen McKinney for years. She has helped me with so many different issues over the years. I originally was sent to her for stress while undergoing EMDR for PTSD. Since then she has helped with sinus problems, migraine headaches, arthritis and other things. When I lay on her table the stress just falls away. I can't recommend Maureen enough.

I had never been to an acupuncturist before. My experience with both Dr. Taylor and Dr. McKenney was very positive. They are professional and very skilled. I received some relief from my neck pain with acupuncture and cupping. They also recommended other solutions, outside of their office, that were very helpful. Thank you.

I had treatment for Base of the Tongue Cancer which gave me dry mouth. Which is much worse than it sounds. Researching for treatments I found that Sloan-Kettering, MD Anderson, and Mayo Clinic had all done trials which showed that acupuncture could bring back saliva. Maureen treated me and brought back saliva, when the treatment plateaued she changed the protocol and got me more saliva.

After years of having the pleasure of experiencing Maureen McKenny's work I can say without hesitation that she is extremely good at what she does. She is simultaneously the essence of professionalism and capacity while being friendly and generous with her knowledge. She is always willing to share, to support me with the information, what I need and how I can accomplish my goals without bogging me down and overwhelming me with too much information.
She always relieves the pain and discomfort, and it appears to be with little effort, but I am certain this is the culmination of the years of study she has under her belt manifesting as grace in the treatment room. Her front desk staff is also so friendly and kind and welcoming, I really enjoy my time with them. If you are seeking a special healing space that combines professionalism with a warm environment, Path to Wellness is a great place to experience.
