“Tassy is without a doubt amongst the best practitioners in her field. On our initial consult, she took the time to understand all of my issues, truly listening to now just what I said but also asked questions to help her get to the underlying causes of the various elements that needed care. While I was primarily seeing her for help with recovery form a concussion, she was able to simultaneously treat other health issues such as stress. She is truly a holistic healer, providing not just acupuncture, but advice on healing with diet, exercise and meditation techniques. I can’t say enough great things about my experience with Tassy, and would recommend anyone who needs effective, open-hearted healing, see her."​

In early 2022 I was suffering from a case of myelopathy that was deteriorating my quality of life. Desperate for some sort of relief I booked acupuncture treatment with Tassy. I was new to acupuncture treatment so I was unsure what to expect. When I first entered Tassy’s beautiful office I immediately felt comfortable and relaxed. Her acupuncture treatment was gentle, yet provided me the relief I was searching for and the medical consultation was deeply thorough, insightful and reassuring. Her expertise, guidance and attention aided in my cervical disc injury and myelopathy diagnosis, which equipped me to pursue the MRIs and surgery that eventually saved my life. I truly don’t know what I would have done without Doc Tassy’s care and knowledge. I highly recommend her without reservation! She is an incredible clinical practitioner and person.

I have been a client for over ten years – Tassy has not only treated me with acupuncture for my various pains but has become a very important medical advisor for my complete (total health). This includes my emotional, spiritual as well as physical wellbeing. She has incredible knowledge of all workings of the body, which greatly enhances her treatment of not only specific issues (problems) but the total wellbeing of the whole person. She has definitely been a positive and important part of my life. I was lucky to have found her. Bottom line. When I finish talking and get treated by Tassy, I feel I am a much happier person.

I have had the amazing luck of finding Tassy Hennessy years ago. Seeing Tassy on a consistent basis has made a huge difference in my health and wellbeing. Tassy has a full range of abilities; from relaxing stress and aligning my chakras to major healing like finding the source of my POTS like symptoms and helping me recover from a car accident. Tassy’s knowledge encompasses all aspects of healthcare and her brilliance and holistically intuitive approach to healing produces results consistently. I tell everyone I know about her because no matter the health condition they have she is a unique resource that blends all modalities of healing and her personal superpower is her brilliant and flexible mind, which she wields ceaselessly to bring healing to her clients. Everyone I have referred to her has been delighted. You cannot go wrong with making the time to see her. She is a jewel!

I would recommend Tassy to anyone who wants a thoughtful and skilled acupuncturist to work with them to address their concerns. Sometimes there are many layers to a problem and Tassy is a master at going beyond the obvious. Her sessions are healing, relaxing and professional. It is so great to find someone who is truly dedicated to her clients!

I highly recommend Tassy. She is an amazing intuitive healer with a wealth of knowledge and a deep understanding of the body. I’ve received treatments from her for over 10 years. I originally came to Tassy to address chronic neck and back pain. Over the years, she’s helped me with my nutrition, anxiety, depression and endometriosis. Her ability to combine the Western and Eastern worlds into her treatments is life changing. Tassy gave me the most precious gift of understanding my body (physically, mentally and spiritually) with all its unique strengths and needs.

How can I begin?
I would like to start by saying that I can’t even imagine seeing myself, my progress, my attitude towards life, without saying, THANK YOU Tassy.
She helped me walk, gives me the courage and helps me to open my eyes to the real meaning of being Alive, here, present. It changes my world every time I walk in her office. It is a little piece of heaven. When we are blind with growing pants (I like to say) and it’s tough to see the beauty in life. Come on, you can do it!!! She reminds me of that!! Every TIME. Not even to mention that she works on my back and my tough, hard, strong jaw muscles like no other! No words will even get closer to explain, you have to see it for yourself! She takes the pain away like magic! So thankful I’ve known her for a while, and she knows so much about me, and I’m 100 percent comfortable telling her everything. You can trust her! I’ve been in hands of some not so trustworthy healthcare providers and I always go back to her to fix me up and get the real deal! I can go on and on…. Oh and PLUS she is also so knowledgeable with astrology charts, she studies my birth chart and that helped SO much. Accepting every little bit of myself! The moon, the universe with her being the instrument nails it! Tassy, Thank you so much for being in my life! I’m forever grateful for your life!! Cheers for many more cheerful moments. You remind me to enjoy the journey to trust the higher power and take a deep breath and let it go!!!
Thank you!!!!

​Tassy is the best! I went to numerous healthcare professionals and she was the only one who was able to help me. I was in and out of the ER multiple times, referred to multiple specialists with no real answers and was misdiagnosed every time. After meeting with Tassy and following her nutrition plan and holistic approach, I’ve been hive free! I can’t even explain the gratitude and love I have for her. She is a healer and truly cares about her clients. She takes her time, is extremely thorough and focuses on all the facts. Tassy is a wonderful person and has changed my life for the better in so many ways!

After injuring my Achilles tendon and years of back pain my daughter made an appointment for me to visit Tassy. That was the first time I met Tassy and I didn’t know what to expect. That was my first acupuncture and Reiki session. She is extremely knowledgeable in nutrition, acupuncture and eastern medicine. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life.

Tassy has helped me so much over the past couple of years! From wrist, knee, and ankle injuries. I've noticed such a huge difference after needling! She even helped me with my anxiety and gut health too! She is someone who you can trust and know you'll always be in good hands. She is very knowledgeable in her craft and I swear we could talk for hours over different injuries and even recipes! I'm forever grateful for her and would highly recommend her to friends and family!

I’ve been receiving healing treatments from Tassy Hennessy for several years now. I attribute much of my good health to her caring and compassionate spirit. She understands that healing takes place on many levels: physical, emotional, spiritual, and psychological. She is not only a practitioner; she is also an intuitive guide. She helps identify and navigate the roadblocks that may be inhibiting the healing energy from flowing freely. She is truly a Devine gift.

At the end of 2020 I developed a condition in my right shoulder commonly named "frozen shoulder”, characterized by stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. After several PT sessions where my shoulder no longer improved, the PT therapist recommended that I try acupuncture. That is how I met Tassy. At the beginning I was a bit concern of the needles, however Tassy was very gentle with them so it was really easy for me to pass that first step. As sessions went by, I realized that Tassy was very dedicated and knowledgeable of body health with a holistic viewpoint. After a few sessions with Tassy I started to see more progress in the mobility of my right shoulder and the pain especially at night also reduced significantly. She was able to detect that I also have a neck problem and gave me the hint to observe myself to detect my posture problem. I was able to modify a few very bad habits and that lead to improvement in my neck problem. She also helped me deal with a major set-back of my health, due to high emotional stress, by using alternative therapies to acupuncture. This year I am visiting Tassy monthly for maintenance of my shoulder. It has recovered its mobility to 95% and I do not feel any pain at night”.

I’ve been seeing Tassy Hennessy at her Acupuncture Orthopedics & Metabolic Medicine practice for about 3 months now. Since I started seeing her I have seen a huge improvement in my health and wellness. Her office is relaxing and comfortable. She’s easy to talk to and really takes time to get to know you, assesses your concerns and comes up with a plan that feels personalized. I always leave feeling better then when I walked in. My back pain has greatly improved and I’ve seen an increase in mobility. If you’re in pain or discomfort or just looking to re-center yourself, she is a great option.

​Tassy has been super helpful in treating my 11-year old sons lower back (muscle pull from playing sports). He’s an incredibly athletic boy who plays multiple sports throughout the week. We had tried acupuncture through another person and it was too aggressive for him. He went to Tassy very hesitant and even refused acupuncture the first visit. Tassy was so patient and respectful to his hesitation. She used acupressure, massage and stretching the first visit. By the second visit, she had created enough trust to do acupuncture. He looks forward to working with Tassy and only has positive things to say. Highly recommend Tassy!!

​I have known Tassy for the last two years (since 2018) and was introduced by a mutual friend who thought Tassy could help my daughter who suffered from a myriad of issues causing her discomfort ranging from digestive issues to migraines. As her mother, I had tried many routes to ease these problems but either through lack of follow through, or them simply not working, I became disenchanted and frustrated. I remember the first time I met Tassy and remember thinking she is quiet, thoughtful, intelligent, well read and maybe she could help? Of course, as life goes sometimes, I got caught up in daily routines and didn’t reach out to her till some significant time later. I was not skeptical of her abilities, yet I just wanted the most minimal relief for my child. Our first session with Tassy in her office was incredible. She took every minute she needed, which turned into more than a few hours to get a complete history and not just from me but from my daughter as well. I felt safe and a sense of calm in her office. I truly believed she could help. She offered her thoughts and suggestions, small things we could try in regards to diet, environmental and even tools to help my daughter decompress from stressful parts of her life that she sometimes had no control over. I was listening and not just for my daughter but for myself. Tassy used acupuncture and massage primarily for my daughter but also talked to her as somewhat of a confidant and provided counseling. I can now say all of this has helped shape my daughter into the young confident woman she is today, as she’s about to attend university and help others. My daughter always feels better after a session with Tassy. For myself, Tassy has assisted me on numerous occasions to settle my mind with the help of acupuncture, massage, sounding forks and her advice that she has acquired not only from secondary education, but also from real life experiences. I am able to completely relax in her office and I can see vibrant or sometimes subtle colors of aura while she works on me. I also walk out of her office feeling lighter and relaxed and somehow free. It always makes me smile because either Tassy or myself will message each other randomly and the other person always responds with, “ I was just thinking of you!” There are no coincidences. I without hesitation would recommend Tassy to anyone I know or love for her ability to heal on multiple levels. She is an undiscovered gem and I hope this helps anyone who reads it to allow her to help you.
 
I appreciate your beautiful old soul and love and healing. I could literally go on for hours with how much you have done for me in the short time I have known you. You balance me when I am beyond off kilter.

I initially took my teenage daughter to see Tassy to work on routine dancer issues, however, over the last few weeks Tassy has been helping her rehab from an injury that occurred while on stage. Tassy is thorough, caring and knowledgeable and puts my daughter at ease. She does body work, acupuncture, and uses laser therapy to help get her back on stage and each visit helps her to reach that goal! I would recommend Tassy without hesitation.

​Kelly P.
It’s more than what you do-it’s who you are as a person that makes me so grateful to know you. Thank you for all the time you spend helping our family.

​Sharron M.
Tassy – I just wanted to thank you for all that you’ve done for me over the last month. Thanks for caring & spending the extra time helping me. I really can’t believe how much better I’m feeling. It was truly amazing that first day I left so much clearer. I know it’s going to take work to maintain that feeling, but at least now I know what I’m working towards. It has become easier to identify what I need to do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Janet O.
You are so gifted in your profession and I am so grateful to know you both as a practitioner and a friend. I so appreciate the knowledge you so generously share with me! I feel so fortunate that our paths have crossed. With gratitude,

​I am a competitive dancer and my dance teacher, Alex recommend her when I injured my ankle. She not only assessed my ankle but my whole body and taught me so much about prevention and how much your health affects everything in your body. She knows just about everything and I always leave knowing something new. I’ve always been so scared of doing acupuncture but she makes the environment so calming and relaxing and I wasn’t even scared. Highly recommend Tassy!

Tassy is one of the best acupuncturists I’ve ever met. And that is saying something. I’m very choosy and I’ve been to different acupuncturists in different countries. Tassy is a healer. Not only that, but she is also a wonderful human being. A friend referred her to me because I had deep back pain. So deep I couldn’t work, sit down, or even lie down. Tassy listened to me, understood my limitations, and offered to help me. First time I went to her office it felt like I was entering Harry
Potter’s world. A room full of old books, magical herbs, aromatherapy and coziness. My back pain instantly eased. As if it said I was on the right path to heal. I went in there fully opened to do whatever it took. Tassy is not the kind of person that pushes you to do things you are not prepared to do. Rather, she inspires you, and gives you little suggestions that can boost your healing process. We did 10 sessions together. At each time she would apply a different technique.
Between sessions of massage, acupuncture, energy healing and conversations that helped me understand the choices I made and that led me to have that god-awful back pain. I was healed. In addition, I felt more empowered to make the necessary changes I needed to have a fuller, pain- free, stress-free life. I cannot repay her for her kindness, time, healing hands, and love for what she does. I fully intend to go back to Tassy’s magical room as many times as possible and of course, to refer her to as many people as possible. I am forever thankful for Tassy.

Tassy has been doing acupuncture on me for years now. When she told me she’s become a Reiki practitioner and invested in a few sets of tuning forks, I immediately booked a session. Wow, Tassy is on to something good! The combination of needles and frequency being sent through the body is highly effective on many levels. Minor aches in my neck and back were eliminated. In addition, I felt a deep sense of calm steadiness. My entire being was lighter and cohesive.
