“Nicole is an exceptional doctor of acupuncture & Healer

She truly stands out in her field. From the moment I walked in to my first appointment, her warm and empathetic demeanor made me feel at ease. She takes the time to listen to my needs and concerns, ensuring that each session is tailored to my specific situation and in tune to what other things I might not have noticed! Her energy is simply amazing—it's both calming and uplifting, creating a positive atmosphere that enhances the healing process.

What impressed me most was her great bedside manner. She explains each step of the treatment clearly, making sure I feel comfortable throughout the process. I always leave each appointment feeling not only physically better but also emotionally uplifted. If you're looking for a compassionate and skilled acupuncturist and healer, I highly recommend her!”

"I loved my first session with Dr. Nicole at Haystack!

The space is comforting & peaceful. During our intake, I felt Dr. Nicole really listened to me talk about how I was feeling both physically & mentally. Nothing felt rushed and she cared deeply about everything I had to say. This was not my first time having acupuncture, I do not like needles. That was taken into consideration. Dr. Nicole made sure made sure that everything was comfortable during treatment & prior to leaving the room. It was so unbelievably relaxing. I felt rejuvenated when I left the room. I had slept better there than I had in weeks. The shoulder pain I walked in with dissipated by the time I left.

Dr. Nicole is a loving soul who cares deeply about helping people & does everything she can to find a way to help you leave her space feeling better than when you walked in. Highly recommend you try a session with her!"

"Come for the acupuncture; stay for the energy

Dr. Harkness immediately emits an aura of confidence & calmness when you walk in. I knew right away I could trust her which was further confirmed upon her asking about not only how I was physically feeling, but how I was emotionally feeling.

The space has a nice homey feel & I felt safe & aware of what was happening the whole time. She explained what every step of the treatment was & why it was happening.

During our very comfortable session, I almost immediately felt the relief from my symptoms & activation from the muscles that we discussed.

I am relatively new to acupuncture treatments and this was a unique experience, truly a needle in a haystack.”

“Dr Harkness is a talented & caring healer. 

She spends the necessary time at the beginning of every treatment to fully understand what my specific healing needs are on that particular day. Her work ethic, positivity, & calming demeanor are unmatched by any Western or alternative medicine professional that I’ve ever worked with on my vestibular migraine journey. I highly recommend Dr Harkness to all who are seeking acupuncture.”
