“When I first went to see Dianne, I had no experience with acupuncture, and had been dealing with a painful lower back for several months. Dianne’s calm and disarming manner put me at ease immediately. My first acupuncture treatment was amazing; I felt the release of tension and pain right away. I continued to receive frequent acupuncture treatments for a period of time to improve my energy level and achieve lasting balance. Now I look forward to seeing Dianne for quarterly ‘tune-ups.’ I strongly recommend Dianne to anyone interested in trying acupuncture.”

“I’m grateful for the ongoing support I’ve received from Dianne over a period of more than ten years! Back in the 90’s Dianne was doing regular TCM, and I was always greatly impressed by her professionalism and care…. I had chronic health problems that were largely resolved by those years of treatment with Dianne...”

“….A few years ago, I thought things couldn’t get any better, and Dianne started doing ‘Five-Element’ work. From day one I’ve been a huge fan of the work, both in how it addresses the whole being (more psycho-spiritual dimension), to how strongly one can physically feel its effects….When I was ill, I went faithfully, every week, and now I might only go once per season, but I treasure those visits because of the love and dedication Dianne expresses through her work…. Those who know me could bear wit- ness, I’m like a different person than I was ten years ago, and I know that the Five-Element acupuncture with Dianne helped play a big part in establishing a more solid foundation for my life.”

“….For years I have experienced a tooth-grinding pain in my back. Chiropractic visits, massage therapy, hot/ cold packs would help for a temporary period. I was resorting to magnet therapy for local pain relief…. Now, with an actual acupuncture experience to relate to, I can tell you without hesitation, beyond any doubt, acupuncture works! Within 20 minutes the pain in my back that I carried for years dispersed. The relief has lasted for months. I feel like I have reclaimed years lost to discomfort….”

“In keeping balance with self and maintaining health, Dianne is an integral part of my health regimen. I have been treated over the years for several health concerns and have always had very positive results…. To feel the energy moving through the pathways is, for me, to confirm the wonderful work Dianne does…. Her sensitivity to the individual’s feelings and needs are wonderful to experience. With an obvious in-depth knowledge of where we need to go with treatment, she is a true healer for us all. I have often recommended Dianne to friends and family and will continue to do so, knowing that they are in for a life-changing and healing event. Thank you, Dianne, for caring and working so hard to become the expert you are for all of us. Health and Happiness to you.”

"Dianne treated me with traditional acupuncture for approximately 5 years. Acupuncture was able to either ease or completely eliminate pain that I had been experiencing for several years. Then Dianne started using a completely different acupuncture technique called the ‘Five Elements.’

The first thing I noticed that the depression that I had been suffering from for approximately 5 years was beginning to lift. After each treatment, I would leave Dianne’s office feeling as though someone had given me a ‘shot of bliss.’ It was wonderful.

My only regret is that Dianne left California and moved to Vermont. I really miss her."

"Dear Dianne: I wanted to write to you and let you know how much good your Five-Element acupuncture has done for both my wife and myself. As you know we have been working in our own business for 8 years now, each working 60 to 80 hours per week.

We were both burned out and our lives were way out of balance. The acupuncture has changed my wife’s life and thus mine in a huge way. By helping bring our lives back into a better balance, we are able to deal with the stress much better and keep a more positive outlook on life. It almost feels like a time machine taking layers of built up stress off of us.

I have not seen my wife smile this much in many years. My wife’s smile is the most valuable thing in the world to me. Thank you for helping bring it back and getting us truly more healthy.

P.S. My wife has not had any hot flashes and her mood swings are gone since she started seeing you. Thank You Again."

"I was one of Dianne’s first patients with the 5 element acupuncture. I think we were both awed at the level of change we were able to accomplish with this treatment.

I was premenopausal at the time, experiencing huge mood swings. I would call her literally in tears, feeling suicidal, wondering if I was going to survive this life passage. She would do the treatment, and when I left, I was feeling calm, comfortable in my body again, and ready to deal with my life.

I received treatments weekly through the following months and as time went on I was not experiencing that same level of desperation before a treatment. If I missed a week, I could feel that it was time to receive another treatment but never that full-scale desperation.

I am eight months menopausal now, I have gone 4 months without treatment and I am doing very well. I have not taken any hormone replacement therapy at all. The 5 element acupuncture seems to bring balance to the core, allowing people to pass through huge challenges and keep the physical/emotional equilibrium to deal with them in a healthy way.

Dianne’s compassionate, intuitive knowledge and skill helped me through an extremely challenging time in my life. I am so very grateful for her and for 5 element acupuncture. She is able to use this awesome tool to get to the heart of what you are dealing with and bring balance and healing there."

"Dianne is a dedicated professional who has a genuine concern for people and their health. I met Dianne years ago after a desperate attempt of relief from Meniere’s disease. I had been to several different doctors who had no answers other than medication to control my vertigo, headaches and nausea. I was given medication that simply made matters worse—nothing was working.

A support group for my condition had recommended that I seek acupuncture as an alternative. I decided to give acupuncture a try, and it was the best decision I could have made.

Dianne began with traditional acupuncture treatment, which helped my symptoms. Later Dianne introduced me to 5-element acupuncture, and this was a completely different experience. Five-element acupuncture treatments are so beneficial for emotional as well as physical health. I began to better understand how my emotions had such an impact on my over all health. After treatments I felt more stable emotionally and began to feel clarity, whereas with traditional acupuncture I didn’t receive the benefit of clearing the emotional thoughts. This clearly to me was key in my recovery.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Dianne Mallik’s services to anyone thinking about an alternative therapy for conditions appropriate to acupuncture treatment."

"Acupuncture is such a wonderfully holistic healing art. When I first started seeing Dianne, I was in a bad place. Menopause had left me in a state of exhaustion and outright depression. I felt improvement after the first visit, and over time I regained my energy and my normally upbeat outlook on life. But wonder of wonders, there was more. For example, I realized that I was no longer experiencing stiffness. I’d never mentioned stiffness to Dianne! I didn’t have to. Dianne wasn’t treating symptoms, she was treating the whole. My health improved overall.

Then Dianne began practicing “Five Element Acupuncture,” and a whole new dimension was added to the whole. I could sense energetic balance as well as physical balance. What do I mean by energetic balance? Well, after my 2nd Five-Element treatment, I felt more feminine. Having been a ‘tomboy’ all of my life, I knew this was important. I left with a sense of awe.

Please consider "Five-Element Acupuncture.” Not only has it helped me, but it is also helping my husband overcome addiction to alcohol. Do your body a favor. Allow Dianne to heal you physically and energetically!"
