Christine is amazing. Through acupuncture, abdominal massage, and some herbs I feel cured. My story is that after time spent in Southeast Asian ten years ago I had parasites. I got rid of those nasty buggers after my return to the States but stomach had never been the same. Double Happiness is what I got. I really appreciate Christine's integrative approach to healing. I will be recommending her to my friends and clients.

I have used Dr. Friel twice in the past three months. The first time, she helped solve a lower back problem using acupuncture. I wasn't sure I wanted acupuncture, but she listened to my concerns, answered my questions and went slowly, always making sure I was comfortable. A month-long problem disappeard in three days. I also had a bad case of the headcold that was going around in May. She gave me some Chinese medicine, one for daytime and other for nighttime. Again, my problem went away in a couple of days. While her warmth and generosity are evident immediately, where she really earns her repeat business is through her professionalism. She is knowledgeable, thorough and results oriented. What a relief to have discovered her.

Pros: Easy parking! :-) What a bonus. Plus, the "clinic" is wonderfully relaxing.

I hate needles and used to break out in a cold sweat just thinking about it. Christine has helped me to feel more relaxed and take a different view of needles. I really enjoy my sessions and we are making some great progress. Thank You Christine!

I have suffered from migraines my entire life but in the past 3 years they had become chronic. I was having migraines 3-5 days a week and seeing a neurologist that had put me on various medications for about 1 year to minimize them. There were numerous side effects and they had not diminished the frequency of my headaches. I was referred to Christine over 1 year ago. She has changed my life! I started seeing an improvement within the first month. A combination of acupunture and herbs has proved to have excellent results. I have been headache free for over 6 months. She has worked with me on diet, food related issues and has also diminished my hot flashes from 10-12 a day to ZERO!! I highly recommend her services.

Pros: Easy parking, flexible, weekend and evening hours

Three years ago, I was referred to Christine during my first marathon training. The need for deep tissue massage to aid muscle and tissue recovery was my main focus at the time. Now, Christine is one of my most trusted health advisors. Using thorough health and lifestyle evaluations, Christine has been successful at treating me for high stress, lower back pain, low energy and fertility. Chinese medicine, herbal supplements and acupuncture was very new to me before meeting Christine. However, her direct and caring approach to my health opened me up to a new, exciting, and proactive health management program. Her knowledge and sincere interest in my well being is supported by her professionalism, relaxing office and courteous staff.

Double Happiness Health is a great place to go if you're new to acupuncture. Christine is wonderful in making you feel comfortable with needles. She's also terrific in finding the right language to speak with you about your treatment, whether it be translating traditional Chinese medicine into western allopathic terms or engaging you in the eastern methodology of qi and balance. The ambiance at Double Happiness Health is very relaxing and healing as well. Well worth it!

Pros: Healing Ambiance, Easy Street Parking, Excellent Treatment and Service

Cons: N/A
