Bree has completely changed my life for the better! I had been struggling with frozen shoulder for a year, with no help from orthopedics or chiropractors or physical therapy! Zero improvement from anyone else. But then I met Bree and I immediately had improvement in my pain levels! I had excruciating pain for months before I saw Bree. After only 20 minutes with her, I felt complete improvement. ZERO pain for the first time in a year! She is a true magician! My range of motion was also improved! Bree has become so important to my life, she now feels like family!

Do you think that acupuncture is painful? No, it is not!!! Please do not think that it will be like a trip to the dentist when you might possibly need a shot of anesthesia. With acupuncture, you will only feel very, very minor pokes which I won’t even call pain at all. The benefits that I have gotten out of my acupuncture appointments with Bree have been so fruitful in all aspects of my life. After my acupuncture treatments, I have been more calm, more creative, and less stressed. Bree is a very good acupuncturist, and by far the best that I have been to. She asks what your concerns are, and listens very intently and genuinely. She treats her patients as individuals and recognizes that each individual has different needs. I definitely recommend getting acupuncture done if you think that you need to change your life for the better. And I strongly recommend Bree Manninen as your acupuncturist of choice.

I started treatment of Acupuncture 2 years ago after hearing of its benefits on a variety of items in my biz to biz organization. I had always been curious of the practice since I had a nagging shoulder injury I gave a try. What a surprise and a relief, the treatments not only help my shoulder but also other issues I had been living with. Bree was very helpful with suggestions for working with my insurance company to pay for visits and treatments.
Bree highly knowledgeable, passionate about her profession, easy to work with and professional. Since then I have referred my wife, a western medicine business manager and several friends to Ascend Wellness. I highly recommend Ascend Wellness for Acupuncture services.

I highly recommend Ascend Wellness in Bozeman for Acupuncture Services. I initially went to Bree in my first trimester of pregnancy because I was experiencing nausea and heard that it could be helpful. She was able to fit me in the same week and explained the process in depth. Throughout my entire pregnancy Bree was there to provide support through acupuncture and was always quick to respond to correspondence whether it was email or phone.

We took our 4 year old daughter to see both Bree (for acupuncture) and Dr. Adam (for chiropractic). They were both wonderful to work with and did an excellent job working with my daughter, despite the fact that she is extremely shy and can be difficult to interact with. I was pleasantly surprised that the needles didn’t hurt her at all, and it made a huge difference with her allergies and asthma. Bree also showed me how to do acupressure at home, so I was able to help relieve her symptoms myself in many cases. She also provided some great supplements for my daughter, and they have really made a huge difference in her health–she is very rarely sick, even when the rest of her classmates are. I would highly recommend Ascend Wellness for children or adults! I have also personally had acupuncture done by Bree to help with an ankle injury and neck pain. It’s amazing how quickly it works and what a difference it makes!
