I have been seeing Heidi for treatment for several months and just adore her! I began working with her while I was pregnant and she was an integral part of my care during that time. I have been seeing her post baby for continued care as I was so happy with her leading up to delivery. Heidi listens to your needs and treats accordingly. Her care isn’t general or “standard,” she takes the time to find out what you need and how she can help. I came to her from another acupuncturist who I knew for years so I had the natural apprehension of switching to a new practitioner, but I was quickly put to ease. I recommend anyone I know to Heidi. Charleston is lucky to have such a great practitioner.
Heidi was highly recommended to me from my Surgeon. I’ve tried acupuncture in the past which was unsuccessful, therefore, initially I was reluctant to make an appointment. While in excruciating pain and desperate for relief, I contacted Heidi. Within 4 visits my pain level subsided significantly. Her treatment plan was unique to my specific pain. Heidi has a gift to heal with her knowledge of acupuncture. Heidi is kind,compassionate and truly listened to my concerns. She is a true professional in her field.
Ms. Heidi Alexander is by far the best partitioner as an Acupuncturist. As an individual she is very compassionate with empathy for people, never judgemental. She is constantly learning, taking classes, attending seminars to improve her techniques to help her patients.My rating for her would be “Outstanding “... she is a wonderful listener and with her expertise comes up with the solution to your problem. Heidi is always very professional and makes you feel totally comfortable in your surroundings.Give yourself a treat and visit her. When visiting from out of town, I always find a way to have an appointment with her and always feel better when I leave her.She gets a 10+ in my book and I have had acupuncture for the past 8 years, every two weeks. She helps with digestion, inflammation, arthritis, knee and shoulder issues, allergies, sinuses, smoking, sleeping and the list goes on.
I was suffering from pain in my left shoulder which would travel down into my left bicep when I went for my daily walk. I didn’t want to take pain meds, I wasn’t able to stretch the pain out and massage couldn’t relieve it. My husband said he had heard that acupuncture was an option for relieving pain, so I googled acupuncture in Charleston. A list of licensed practitioners came up and I looked for the one with the most experience. Heidi Alexander had three times more experience than anyone else on the list, so I emailed her that very night. By the next morning, Heidi had replied to my email. We made arrangements to talk on the phone about my concerns and, after a short conversation, she thought she could help. She fit me in that same afternoon. My muscles were so tight that Heidi could hardly get the needles in, but she is an experienced professional and she persevered! She worked on me for two hours and by the time I left, I felt noticeable relief. After two more sessions, my shoulder pain was gone!! That was over nine months ago, and I have not had a recurrence of that pain. All that pain relief at a very reasonable cost!!Heidi is a kind, caring and concerned professional who provides individualized treatment for her clients. If you are experiencing pain or other health issues, do yourself a favor and talk to Heidi. Don’t wait another day!
I stumbled in to Gut Harmony feeling hopeless about my current overall health. I decided to meet with Heidi for a consultation (even though I was very skeptical about acupuncture) but as a new mom I was desperate for some help. Within a few minutes of meeting with Heidi I felt such a sense of peace and comfort from her gentle & caring disposition. I was due to have wrist surgery the following week so I decided to jump on board right away and give acupuncture try. It is such a relaxing atmosphere and I felt instant relief. I even cancelled my surgery and Im happy to report that I have yet to have any issues 3 months later. Not only has Heidi helped me with my wrist, but she has helped with anxiety and stress, and magically cured a cold. I feel like a million bucks every time I see her and I definitely believe she is absolutely gifted in her practice! I am an acupuncture pusher now! She has changed my life!
Heidi Alexander is the most amazing person! My husband suffered from severe sciatica for almost two years when he went to see her at my suggestion. He had been diagnosed with an L4/L5 issue, tried PT, was told that the steroid shots don’t always work long enough, and was told by a surgeon that only surgery would help. He went from being a vital, active man to being a cripple who was in constant pain. On some days, he could barely walk at all. Heidi is Board Certified, and has a Master’s in Acupuncture, a four year program. These are essential qualifications. She is also the kindest, most caring human being. My husband started feeling better almost immediately. By the 4th treatment, he was PERFECT! He thanked Heidi for giving him his life back! He has continued to be perfect for four months with no hint of a problem.
Heidi is one of the most skilled acupuncture practitioners Ive ever been to. I was suffering from a lingering upper respiratory infection that wasnt responding to holistic or traditional treatments. She improved my symptoms, my energy and got me back in the game. She is smart, kind and practical. You will love her!
I have been seeing Heidi now for several months, for a complicated condition- which has shown improvements since my treatments. She is an excellent practitioner- she listens intently, is very insightful and kind. I highly recommend her.
Heidi is extremely experienced and competent. She provided much needed relief for my daughter’s fibromyalgia pain when no other health care provider could help. Choose her if there is any choice to be made.
I had the best experience with Heidi and amazing results. She took the time to talk with me and make sure we were on the same page each and every session. I worked with her over the course of about a year and had zero complaints. She is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. I would recommend her to anyone I know.
The absolute best! Every session I walk away feeling like my body has hit the refresh button. Her wealth of knowledge and experience has allowed me to see major improvements in my overall health. I wish I could take her everywhere with me! Mt Pleasant is lucky to have her and I recommend her to all my loved ones.
I decided to try acupuncture after 2 years of run arounds with my dr, a chiropractor, and an ortho from a dislocated rib and muscle spasms and inflammation that lingered.. i was refered to heidi and was blown away at her knowledge and professionalism.. she was very attentive and answered all my questions, showed me exercises to do at home, taught me how to use correct posture, and had suggestions about inflammation ruducing diets, ALL before she starting the acupuncture part of the visit.. so far ive had a lot of relief, and woke up feeling a lot better.. im very excited to start the process of healing my back and seeing heidi once week..
