What Patients Commonly Share About Their Experience at Yinstill
Across years of patient feedback and shared reflections, a few themes come up consistently:
- More than clinical care: many describe feeling steadied, supported, and held – especially during uncertainty, loss, or major transitions.
- A calm, welcoming environment: people often notice the atmosphere and the intentional pace of care.
- Feeling safe and oriented: from the physical space to how appointments unfold, patients commonly feel respected, grounded, and clearly guided.
- Whole-person support: many share that they’re met as a whole individual – not reduced to symptoms, diagnoses, or timelines.
- Relational and consistent care: patients often describe a steady practitioner relationship, with care that adapts as needs evolve.
- Shifts beyond the physical: some reflect on changes in emotional wellbeing, self-trust, and confidence in their bodies over time.
- A steady place to return to: for some, Yinstill becomes a consistent support during a particularly tender chapter of life.

Variety of Treatments
I have been seeing Sean for a variety of issues for the past 6 months and he consistently provides me with great care and attentiveness. I seem to always have something that I can work on in my acupuncture sessions that changes week to week and Sean is always very flexible with my treatment.
There is hope…
After my wife and I tried unsuccessfully to conceive for two years, we were faced with the daunting prospect of finding out “why”? Through a series of tests it was determined that my sperm morphology was a likely culprit.
Dr. Flynn helped us on our journey to parenthood
I have been a patient of Dr. Erin Flynn’s for over four years. A friend recommended acupuncture as I have PCOS and was having a hard time getting pregnant, and I thought “why not”? A quick Google search led me to a clinic specializing in fertility and my instant love of acupuncture was born.
Gentle and effective
Very professional! Erin was able to fit me into her tight schedule. I have been to a few acupuncturists and Erin was very gentle and very effective. I would highly recommend others to go see her,
鍼治療で約20年もあった生理痛が軽くなりました。 Pain is gone!
昨日から始まった生理の生理痛がとても軽くて驚いています。
1日~2日目はいつもはほぼ4時間おきに薬を切らさずといった感じでないと、生理痛が
ひどいのですが、昨日は3回の服用でした。しかも、今日は2日目にも関わらず、生理痛が無いので
本当に驚いています。生理痛が無い2日目なんて19歳の時以来です。

Beyond my gratitude for her support
My journey with Junko started about three years ago and I now consider acupuncture sessions with her an important part of maintaining health and returning to health when I get overly stressed or make less good choices.
Healthy Baby Girl !
I received acupuncture in the late Spring of 2008 at your centre in an attempt to conceive my first child. I wanted to let all of the wonderful staff know that I successfully conceived in June and gave birth to a beautiful baby girl in February 2009.
A crucial part in the success of my very first IVF
It was so convenient to have the procedure done on site and i couldn’t get over how relaxed i was coming out of my appointment. I was more nervous about the accupuncture then the IVF transfer but once i got in and talked to Dr.
