If I could give Avesta 10 stars I would. The staff is amazing. I have chronic pain and the infusions are what I need do to help with my disease. I would highly recommend them!
I have nothing but excellent things to say about Avesta. I found them on google and they had good reviews. From the initial call, to the intake, all the communication and timely and informative responses to the actual treatment exceeded my expectations. Sam was my nurse and his bedside manner was amazing. The chairs were great, they included lavender and Sam suggested adding magnesium. I would recommend Avesta to anyone seeking a transformative experience.
Everyone working here is very pleasant. They remembered my name and what essential oils I like etc after just a few visits! The treatment is honestly life changing and I highly recommend it.
Avesta is amazing and has helped me improve my health tremendously. Not only is everyone professional, but every single person there is comforting, accommodating, and empathetic. I cannot say enough about how much my life has changed for the better. I am so grateful and unequivocally recommend Avesta to everyone!
I was referred here by my pain management doctor when I didn’t tolerate ketamine infusions well at her office, physically or emotionally. Avesta networks with coaches and trauma therapists so I tried again at a mood infusion dose with a coach for the first few treatments and between the protocol to abstain from eating and drinking for a set amount of time prior to infusion (while respecting my disautonomia needs) and the reassurance of the coach, I’ve successfully completed the recommended series for me and am in maintenance mode right now with improvements in mood, anxiety/PTSD reactions as well as improvements in pain and hypersensitive nerves. The owner and staff are knowledgeable and warm people. The clinic is clean, peaceful, safe and serene. I would recommend Avesta to anyone in need of their services. They’re ethical and truly helpful. I appreciate them for all they’ve done for me.
An incredibly calm and pleasant place with kind stuff, a great environment for the infusion and healing
