I have been working with Dr. Sam for over 4 years now and she is absolutely integral to my health, wellbeing, and athletic performance! I first met her through a referral from a friend and she helped me with a sports injury I was having difficulty rehabbing on my own. I quickly realized how impactful the combination of massage and acupuncture that she does are, and how knowledgeable she is across both eastern medicine and traditional sports medicine. I continue to go regularly even when I don't have a particular "problem" (an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure). I couldn't more highly recommend Dr. Sam!

Dr. Sam is an amazing healer!! I’ve been going to her for tennis and golfers elbow- she’s been the only one to give me any type of relief. She works hard to find the root of the problem so she can truly help you heal from a strong foundation. She cares so much about making sure our bodies feel their best. Her own athleticism, I think, brings an incredible and unique perspective. She’s the best around!!
Dr. Sam is the best! My sports are dance, weightlifting, HIIT, running, and I discovered Sam through a fellow dancer friend when I mentioned I had overtrained my glute. Dr. Sam is a bodywork mercenary, using whatever means necessary (acupuncture, cupping, gua sha, massage, physical therapy exercises, stretching) to help you feel better. I always feel like a million bucks after her appointments. Can't recommend her enough!
Dr. Sam is life-changing and my body couldn’t function the way it does if it wasn’t for her care. Not only does she help relieve all the stress I put on my body through hard work, sport and play, but she ensures that I understand why my body is doing what it’s doing and how I can help to consistently be my best self. I’m so grateful for her and her skill as well as her thoughtfulness with the way she is able to help get me back in action as fast as possible. She is truly the best!!
Samantha cares deeply about her clients. She helped me walk again (after not being able to walk for a few months) and cheered me on every step of the way. I still receive treatments from her even though my foot has healed. I highly recommend Samantha!
PBAM has been the the best! Sam has a pleasant, professional and confidence-inspiring approach to her highly effective treatment. I am now able to walk freely, climb hike and ski again after years of limited mobility. Just the right remedy.
Samantha is 'the' most amazing massage therapist and acupuncturist I've worked with. She helped me with my postpartum pains, especially on my wrists. I was having trouble picking up my baby and I saw Samantha once a week, sometimes more, for acupuncture to treat this and the pain subsided after each treatment and was gone in a couple of months. This was over 10 months ago. Now, I still see her every week for acupuncture for back pain and massage. Samantha knows what she's doing - she's intuitive and I don't have to point out my trouble spots - she just knows! Samantha is passionate about healing and it shows in her amazing work.
Samantha knows what she's doing. I've been treating with her for years and cannot stress enough (pun!) how much her treatments have helped me. She first treated me with massage and shared how nutrition and diet with my active training schedule would help increase my energy. I was scared to try acupuncture and cupping at first, but I completely trusted her to give me a session - and I left feeling more relaxed and my shoulders and back more calm than they've been in a long time. I definitely recommend!
