Juliana Kramer, L.Ac.

Juliana is one of the most thoughtful healthcare practitioners I've seen. She is very engaged and has studied many different acupuncture techniques to provide the best treatment options. Several times she has researched options between my appointments and comes with books tabbed. I currently am seeing her for hip arthritis and post-surgery recovery, as well as stress management. I was an acupuncture skeptic before seeing Juliana, but she's really helped me with several conditions. I highly recommend her!

Juliana is truly exceptional. She welcomes me warmly each time and creates a space where I can land, slow down, and get to the heart of what’s present. She listens deeply, reflects with empathy and wisdom, and her responses feel thoughtful and grounded. Her acupuncture is precise and gentle, and her somatic treatments are both unique and highly effective. I have seen benefits ranging from back pain improvement to relationship boosting! I also appreciate how she weaves in spirituality in a respectful, supportive way — and gives me practices to continue the work between sessions. I feel deeply met and held in her care. I highly recommend Juliana to anyone looking for healing that is holistic, skillful, and heart-centered. -Farshid Farrahi, M.D.

Juliana is a very special breed of acupuncturist. She doesn’t just needle you and leave, but rather walks with you through a very intricate process as your energetic body shifts and unwinds. She understands and applies her knowledge of both orthopedics and emotional physiology, herbs and so much more. As a holistic chiropractor, Juliana is one of my main acupuncturist referrals, especially for chronic or complicated cases.

Juliana is amazing. I’ve been seeing her for over a year & many of my concerns have resolved with her assistance. She is a kind & compassionate provider & I feel well cared for by her.

Juliana is a magical Acupuncturist, body worker, herbalist, and healer. My sessions with her have felt very safe and co-created. Juliana is respectful of my body's needs and meeting me where I am at on a given day. I really appreciate their mix of modalities during our sessions (Acupuncture needle work, cranio sacral holds, deep tissue massage, herb supplements, and more). I have had chronic pain for a while and I can truly feel the healing effect of their work on my bodymind. They accept some insurance plans and also have pay-what-you-can slots for Queer/Trans/BIPOC/Low Income folks.

Juliana is extremely generous with her time and an all-around lovely human. When you're with her you know that you're in the hands of someone who cares about you and your health and making you feel as good as possible. I always leave feeling relaxed and loose and like I'm ready to take on my week. I also love that Juliana really *hears* me when I tell her about something that doesn't feel right in my body. She trusts my own intuition and that's something I struggle to find in other venues. It feels amazing to have someone listen to you, someone who keeps updated on multiple aspects of your life from week to week, and who is genuinely determined to make your life as healthy and happy as possible.

I can't say enough good things about Juliana. She is a truly incredible healer and has helped me get so much relief through a terrifying and excruciating cervical spinal issue. My friend are all like "oh, we get it, you love your acupuncturist" because I tell everyone to see her. She is not just incredibly skilled, but also compassionate and with great bedside manner.

I came to Juliana after suffering with serious injuries for 25 years. She was able to make serious changes to my body through the neijing-style acupuncture within months and had a greater impact than anyone I've worked with over that period. These are injuries I thought I'd have to live with for the rest of my life, but that has changed in less than a year. It used to mean no sustained, consistent exercise for me without aggravating problems...now it's different. This style of acupuncture is a godsend to physical injury and its repercussions. Thank You Juliana

Juliana is a knowledgeable and compassionate holistic healer that I would recommend to anyone seeking greater overall health and wellness in their lives. I started seeing Juliana over a year ago when I was experiencing numerous side effects from treatment to a serious health condition. Juliana has helped my body to fully recover from several of these conditions and make great improvements in other areas that I wasn't sure was possible. She truly cares about her work and clients and always takes the time to listen to the details of what I'm going through. She offers lots of useful suggestions and recommendations that I've found very helpful as well. Her clinic is the most Covid-safe environment that I've experienced anywhere and goes well beyond the required Covid protocols to make me feel comfortable, which I really appreciate. She also provides acupuncture treatments following Covid vaccines to help with potential side effects and help boost overall immune response, which I found helpful. I also love her blog, which gives me an extra dose of inspiration and calm: https://www.julianakramer.com/blog/

I can't say enough good things about Juliana- she's such an intuitive healer who incorporates different techniques from cupping to acupuncture to recommending TCM herbs to get you the desired result so you leave feeling the best version of you. The first time I saw her she came to my house the second time I came to her studio, both times I had excruciating neck pain where I couldn't turn my head at all. By the time I left I was feeling significantly better and she truly is a delight to be around.

We recently relocated to Berkeley from LA and I was concerned I would not find an acupuncturist as great as the one I was leaving, I was wrong. Juliana is an incredible acupuncturist, she is warm, compassionate and and determined to get to the root cause of your health issues. I visited with multiple layers and she cleverly peels each layer back to heal you physically, mentally and emotionally. She is extremely skilled at healing pain, hormonal and emotional imbalances. She is an authority in her craft and treats each visit with fresh eyes, perspective and determination to ensure she is getting the very best results possible.

Juliana is the *best* acupuncturist I've ever been to, and I've tried a bunch. She has wonderful bedside manner, and she's deeply committed to getting to the root cause of my underlying health issues. Her specific style is a unique Japanese one that is gentle and precise. Unlike other styles, with hers I get instant feedback that my symptoms are reducing. She is constantly researching and attending courses to further her skills and support her patients. It is clear she is passionate about her work and aligned with her purpose. She creates such a relaxing, gentle, safe atmosphere, which makes acupuncture feel like the most amazing form of self-care... most of the time I fall asleep during our sessions and wake up feeling so refreshed and rejuvenated. Mmmm. Juliana's sessions have helped to diminish migraines, settle my nervous system during challenging times, and reduce my allergy symptoms when no one else could. You're in really, really good hands with Juliana.

Juliana is amazing! I highly recommend her for acupuncture and massage! I found her back in July when I was searching for an "emergency" massage on the yelp pages. After a couple of years of sleep deprivation and lack of self-care (thank you motherhood) I had a hit a wall and could not take the discomfort I was experiencing for another second! Turns out I was also dealing with an ovarian cyst that was adding to my discomfort. Juliana is incredibly intuitive and attuned to energy in the body. I don't mean to sound all woo-woo, but she knew exactly where I was hurting, how I needed to be massaged and all the right channels to stick her magic needles ;p. She is also warm, grounding and holds a safe container, which is just what this exhausted and physically taxed mama needed to release the stress and trauma from her body! I've been seeing her since then (she supported me through surgery and recovery and now helps me deal with my chronic body stuff related to scoliosis and modern life). Her sessions (I do both acupuncture and massage together) always leave me in less pain, more relaxed, and feeling happy to exercise self-care! I sleep better, digest better and pay more attention to my health and well being since I began care with her. She's my therapist on multiple levels ;)... her personality and energy just feels safe, non-judgmental and nurturing to me. Also if you you're just looking for an amazing, deep, strong massage that melts the tension from your body, she can deliver!

I saw Juliana last Tuesday and she was amazing. I have multiple health problems and she listened and figured out what acupuncture treatment would work best for me. During and after the treatment, I felt pain free. The is the first time in many many years where I felt like my cloud of pain had been lifted and there was light at the end of the tunnel. She was also gentle, patient and kind, as this was my first acupuncture experience. She is also very personable, we made Harry Potter, ET, and Wizard of Oz jokes. I left feeling like an oiled tin woman ready to conquer the world.

If I could give Juliana 6 stars, I would!! She's wonderful - I've been coming to see her for about 2 months now and I am loving it! She is a wonderful listener and is so thoughtful. I always feels so great after my sessions with her. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for an acupuncturist.

I have been seeing Juliana for several months for acupuncture and she is fantastic! She has a really calm and caring demeanor. She really works with you, asks lots of good questions, and talks you through everything. I feel totally relaxed and comfortable in Juliana's care. She has really helped my overall health - I strongly recommend her as an acupuncturist!

Simply the best. Not much more to say. Had pain. Now I don't. I went to Juliana with lower back pain and also some neck pain. It is rare to find an acupuncturist that can also do massage, and both really well. Not only did I go to her for acupuncture, but also for some very specific massage efforts. Other acupuncturists are always trying to get you in and out. Juliana takes her time in a way that I have never seen. I know you have options, so did I . I used to go to various places, now I consolidate. I always leave feeling better.

Juliana gave me emergency acupuncture with a side of wonderful life coaching - I have to say, not only was it a gift for me that she was available and willing when I needed it, the work was also the bomb. Too bad she's on the other side of the country for me, lucky for you!

GREAT friggin massage action I got an hour and a half massage from Juliana, and it was one of the best I've recieved. She does an amazing job at making sure you're really comfortable. I also had my first cupping there too, which is a practice where glass cups are applied to your skin. Being that I had never done that before, she did a great job of making it very non-scary for me. Totes recommended

I went to an acupuncturist with 20 years experience and then to Juliana fresh out of school and I had a much better experience with Juliana! She brings much care and compassion and information to your experience! She helped me get to the root of a severe itch problem with needles and Chinese herbs! I'm very grateful for her and highly recommend her! She's calm, grounded, present and easy to talk to!

Ms. Juliana Kramer is an outstanding alternative medicine practitioner. Her approach is firm and gentle, she is always professional, courteous, and compassionate. Her practice is comfortable and welcoming with beautiful artwork on the walls and nice ambiance. Her practice's policies are easy to understand and made with good intention such as cancellation policies. She helps you assess your insurance coverage prior to coming into the office in order to ensure a smooth, easy, and stress free visit. She continually works to give the highest level of care and superior quality of service to all of her patients. Her technique is not painful and she is very direct about what treatment you will be receiving and why. Her practice is patient oriented and shows understanding for all patients and their needs/health concerns. I highly highly recommend you work with Ms. Juliana Kramer is you are interested in or require acupuncture treatment. She is especially equipped to work with young adults, professionals, the elderly, those suffering from chronic pain, women, and people of color. You will not regret visiting and then working with Ms. Juliana Kramer, she is the best Japanese-style acupuncturist in the Bay Area hands down. Find her on Yelp or Google!

I highly reccomend Juliana Kramer as massage therapist for everyone. Regardless if you were an athelete or sitting insinde cubicle staring at a computer moniter for 8 hours or suffering from a form of ache, she has the magic touch that will make you feel much better. I have better mobility, endurance, and overall energy after one session. I will most definitely get further sessions from her in the future.

Juliana is truly awesome. She cares so much that she will even do research to figure out a solution that works specifically for each client. She is kind, understanding and actually listens and hears you.

Juliana is an exceptional acupuncturist and herbal doctor. Her diagnosis and many forms of treating the condition combine ancient knowledge with cutting edge techniques. It made a difference with the very first treatment. I give her high marks.

Absolutely the best Deep Tissue Massage in Northern California! I have chronic stress/pain in back, neck and arms and Juliana is the only person brave enough to go as deep as I need her to go. She's very good at meeting requests, respecting boundaries, and trusting her intuition. I recommend her completely.

Great massage. Went in because of stress headaches, and I feel much better. It is only a day after, and all the tension is gone in my neck and shoulders. Would recommend her to anyone.
