What patients say
Dr. Khanita. Wow. She is clearly passionate about Chinese medicine and healing arts. In my experience, she connects extraordinarily well with people, not intimidating in the slightest, yet her presence commands respect. Her ability to connect informs her of existing patterns in people, in our bodies; the areas of stuck and overuse that have accumulated imbalance. She works dynamically, drawing on many techniques and responding in real-time to the cues of the body (rather than habitually, with rote responses). I find her work in healing and restoring balance to be exceptional and highly recommend her.
