Testimonials

I have had the honor of working with Jane Crawford for the past 20 years in a hospital-based Integrative Medicine program.  Jane is highly experienced in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture and also in the field of Nutrition Therapy with advanced certification in the field of Functional Medicine.  Jane uses her extensive training and experience to assist clients with a whole person approach to wellness.  She has expertise in treating people living with cancer including helping manage diagnoses of Stage 4 illness to promote an individual's optimal lifestyle.  Jane was a key team member while I was living with and healing from breast cancer and I know my journey and ability to heal from cancer was deeply impacted by Jane's treatments and nutritional coaching.  Jane is also very knowledgeable regarding the benefits of Intermittent Fasting and with her knowledge I have been able to lose over 20 pounds which positively impacts my health and well-being and helps prevent a recurrence of cancer.  Jane is a vital member of anyone's "health" care team!

I have lived alongside my wife Wendy for forty years, fourteen of those since her diagnosis of Parkinson's.  By all accounts, Wendy has stayed ahead of the curve, a slower pace of regression (I refuse to use the word progression as this shit does not progress, ok cut this sentence out of the testimonial).  If you ask us why? --  we would respond with two words: Jane Crawford.  Jane offered three things that made a difference.  First, weekly connection with an excellent professional.  Second, a brilliant watchful eye that noticed little things and attended to them through resources like nutrition, acupuncture, and life-style changes.  Third, a caring presence that was better than any form of therapy Wendy could have pursued.  Connected. Resourceful. Caring.  That is it in a nutshell.  We wish we could just carry her around with us, which now, by way of the virtual world we will do.  We give Jane our Good Humankeeping Seal of Approval.  Nobody is better.

Jane is a well rounded therapist. Through her critical thinking skills, she creates the best individual treatment for each patient. She has the ability to incorporate, massage, acupuncture, nutrition and functional medicine to encourage anyone’s body to wellness. She is a great last resort, as she can give hope to a situation that is not easy or understood. I will continue to refer my clients to Jane as support in their health care.

Jane Crawford not only figured out several “mystery” conditions that traditional medicine either missed or dismissed in me, but she successfully treated those conditions using acupuncture and/or herbs. She restored my good health. I can’t speak highly enough about her as a clinician or as a person.

I had struggled with asthma which was managed but not improving for almost a month until I had cupping and acupuncture with Jane- I felt better within an hour of leaving her care, and I remained able to breathe easily in the weeks that followed.

Jane opened up a whole new lifestyle for me by introducing me to intermittent fasting. With her knowledge, expertise and careful guidance she has moved me to a much healthier and energetic phase of my life. I am eternally grateful.

Jane is a life saver for me. As a stressed-out college administrator, I needed some help in relieving stress; Jane's deep massage and acupuncture sessions are literally what my doctor ordered. I am thrilled with the results and ready to take on all challenges. Without Jane, I would be struggling with managing the stress. I certainly plan to keep sessions with Jane on my calendar monthly for a very long time to come.

Jane's integrated knowledge of functional medicine, nutrition and acupuncture gives her an unparalleled approach to supporting her clients' health.  She is approachable and down to earth, and her knowledge is vast.  You couldn't be in better hands.  She was tremendously supportive in helping me re-tool my diet in a manageable way

Visiting Jane is like seeing a scientist w/ needles... I trust her judgement and integrity more than my doctor...

I've been the beneficiary of Jane's incredible acupuncture care for at least 10+ years! I've received acupuncture from various Practioner's through my 6 decades of life. Jane's knowledge, genuine care, empathy and engagement in inquiring to "what's going on"? - sets her heads and tails above her Peers. If I am anxious - she hits the mark with her therapy. If I am in pain - again she hits the mark. If I am generally unwell/sluggish - again she hits the mark. Jane is a valued and trusted partner in my overall health and I don't know where I would be without her. Jane ROCKS!

Jane is a skilled acupuncturist, who also has an exceptional bedside manner. She’s an excellent listener and takes the time to truly understand what she’s treating and why. I highly recommend her!
~ Chris C.
As an acupuncturist, Jane is truly gifted. In addition to her skills that contribute to my maintenance of general good health, she also, at one point, played an integral part in my successful recovery following a complicated surgery. Regarding her knowledge in he realm of nutrition, where do I start? First of all, I never get tired of listening to Jane’s discussions about nutrition . The effort and attention to detail she puts into research regarding the many facets of this often confusing and complicated topic is nothing short of amazing. I appreciate Jane’s approach when working with clients. She is caring, non-judgmental and really listens to what you have to say. Whether your nutrition goals are general improved health, support through a specific diagnosis or preparation for surgery, Jane will work with you to come up with a sustainable plan to optimize your health.

Jane Crawford has a wealth of knowledge that few others have. Her acupuncture, massage and nutritional expertise is at the apex of her profession. She has helped me to feel better and keep working when Western medicine has failed me. In addition to her clinical skills, her thoughtfulness, caring and compassion have helped many of my patients through their cancer journeys. I recommend her skills to anyone looking for a wholistic functional medicine view for their care.
~ Jodi Winicour PT, CMT, CLT-LANA
I’ve been seeing Jane for more than nine years for acupuncture and nutrition consulting. As a cancer survivor, I find she strikes a perfect balance of western and eastern philosophies. And her compassion is unequalled.

I started going to Jane Crawford in September of 2012 when I started chemo therapy for colon cancer. Acupuncture was an amazing tool in controlling my neuropathy in my hands and feet. It also helped my immune system, state of mind and energy levels during chemo! I have continued acupuncture treatments every 3-4 weeks to keep my immune system, liver function, knee and back pain and overall health in check. It is actually a relaxing experience for me and I hope to be able to go to Jane for as long as she is still working

Jane has been a life saver for me and came into my life when I was at my weakest point with serious health issues. After traveling to Indonesia, I became extremely ill with seven strains of bacteria, including dysentery. I was unable to cope well with the physical and mental toll of being so ill. I was seeing all kinds of Doctor’s and had all the traditional treatments, but real recovery proved extremely difficult; the doctors couldn't figure out how to help me anymore. Eating anything was painful and uncomfortable. I was in constant pain. I struggled to get out of bed and do daily rituals. I could not fulfill any of my normal roles as a mother, wife and nurse. I just wanted to be a functioning person again. I sought out both Eastern and Western medicine and nutrition advice in an attempt to recover even just a little bit of my normal good health. Jane came highly recommended to me and so I made my appointment to see her. I had no expectations of being “fixed”. Luckily, I got everything I wanted wrapped up into one person in that she already practiced nutrition and acupuncture. After our first meeting I finally had hope! I cry as I write this because I feel she saved me and I am able to return to my normal, pre-dysentery, life. My family became big believers when they'd see me improve with just one treatment of acupuncture, or cupping, or nutritional support. She would work on whatever my issue was the day, always teaching as she goes. Jane is simply amazing. I am feeling great, living life, and loving that I am me again. I have even returned to my demanding nursing job. Thank you Jane for being brilliant with your knowledge and skills that you share so kindly with others and for giving me back my life that I thought was gone forever!
