Working with Sharon

Sharon is the best acupuncturist I’ve ever been to.

The acupuncture and transformational healing work Sharon did with clients during one of my retreats was truly amazing. The participants raved about it. They went into session with her looking and feeling one way and came out the other side glowing and radiant! They couldn’t get enough of Sharon and her work.

I was lucky enough to find Sharon after 10 years of living in the Rogue Valley. She is one of the most knowledgeable, compassionate and intuitive practitioners I have ever met. She has treated me for women’s health— balancing my hormones, alleviating chronic pain and has also helped me reset my nervous system. After the session I felt Calm and peaceful. Grateful. Having the opportunity to receive treatments from Sharon has been life changing and I am incredibly grateful.

In my 55 years of having chinese energy medicine as my primary healthcare modality, along with experiencing acupuncturists across the USA, Canada, and England, I consider Sharon Kraus as among the A++ practitioners due to her soulful presence, generous caring heart, and advanced skill levels. She is a true healer in the ancient definition of that word, as well as being an accomplished modern day healthcare professional. I am so fortunate as an Elder being treated by such a beautiful woman in her prime.

I cannot thank Sharon enough for all that she has done for me. After seeing such a transformation with my friend who referred me, I knew I had to give her a try. From my first visit I had such a sense of peace and balance. My daughter said the same thing after seeing her. Thank you Sharon, I am a different person emotionally and physically.
