    I was diagnosed with Bells Palsy, and was told it would take 2 months for it to recover. I saw Angelica within 4-5 days and started treatment right away. Within a couple weeks I had regained 95%+ feeling and control in my face, and am now fully recovered. She is very good at what she does, and I saw amazing results. Thank you Angelica!

    -Jackson D.

    Angelica has been such a gift to me and my family. After 5 years of fertility struggles and multiple miscarriages, I was searching for any "unconventional" approaches in an attempt to leave no stone unturned. In reading her reviews at the time, I wasn't able to find any particular success stories that were specific to infertility; however, the gushing reviews of others expressing how she'd changed their lives in other ways were enough to encourage me to give it a try. My first appointment was almost an hour long. She truly made it a point to get to know me, and we talked about so many things besides pregnancy. I'll never forget the line that really stuck with me that day and made me know it was the right decision to continue working with her-- "Your goal isn't to get pregnant. It's to have a healthy baby." Such an obvious statement, but also something no one had said to me up to that point. We started with some root cause healing and specific recommendations for my overall health first. She was very honest in sharing that although she could start fertility acupuncture treatments right away, she didn't think my body was ready. I continued seeing my other doctors as well and shared details from those appointments with Angelica, and she was always very respectful of working alongside them. Each appointment I'd show up to anxiously awaiting for a protocol shift and admittedly feeling a bit impatient each time she'd assess things and say "not yet." After about 2.5 months of this, she switched from "not yet" to "you're ready." We changed our schedule up for upcoming appointments, and she told me her prediction was that it would take 3 months to work. When I came to the following appointment (the first fertility treatment), she changed her tune and said "actually, I give it a month." I wasn't sure if I should laugh at the absurd prediction, remain skeptical, or put my hope in her that this was different than past situations. I found out two weeks later that I was pregnant, which occurred during the first treatment cycle. I continued seeing her through the first trimester due to my history of early loss. She was so encouraging and uplifting--I felt like each appointment was an acupuncture treatment, mini therapy session, and a chat with a friend. My son is now one year old, and I'm confident that without coming to Angelica, we would not have him. I am forever grateful for her, the expertise, and the care she shows each of her patients.

    -Lauri V.

    I began seeing Angelica last March after 6 years of chronic headaches. I felt failed by the medical community. Prescription drugs did not help the root of the problem. Acupuncture helped tremendously almost immediately, and Dr. Kokkalis helped me pinpoint lifestyle and diet changes that also made a huge impact. I felt she gave more time, consideration, and understanding to my situation than any traditional doctor I had seen. I will continue to see Dr. Kokkalis, consider her a friend, and would recommend her to anyone.

    -Lauren P.

    In the past I have gone to Dr. Kokkalis for TMJ and lower back pain. She helped me with both of these conditions. She has a great knowledge of Chinese medicine. For the past several months I have been treated through traditional methods for plantar fasciitis; oral anti-inflammatory drugs, physical therapies, exercise, scraping and a lot of money on arch supports. I was in agony until I called Dr. Kokkalis two weeks ago. I am getting my third treatment today. After 1 treatment I could tell a difference. She has told me I should expect 4-6 treatments. The relief has been great and I trust her medical advice. She knows what she is doing. Thank you Dr. Kokkalis. I feel so much better.

    -Susan K.

    Dr. Angelica Kokkalis has helped me so much on my path to coping with anxiety. She is very knowledgeable, personable, and has many years of experience and expertise. Her clinic has a very warm and welcoming atmosphere. I am very happy with my results so far and look forward to making more progress with the help of Angelica. I feel much calmer and more peaceful since starting treatment about a month ago. I am very grateful for Dr. Kokkalis's treatments and wisdom. I know she cares about her patients very much. I also enjoy seeing her sweet, adorable dog at each appointment; I highly recommend Dr. Kokkalis to anyone! She is amazing and truly has a gift for helping people.

    -Claire W.

    I visited Angelica on March 13, 2023 for the first time. She described to me her healing process, the importance of balancing my body first through acupuncture, and what to expect during the acupuncture treatment. She explained that she was going to balance me through acupuncture first because my body needed it. She instructed me to breath in for four counts and exhale for eight counts through the treatment and to use this technique during the day to keep my body calm. While receiving this treatment she explained that it was going to be normal to be moving, and possibly see lights. On the first treatment I moved a lot and the top of my head hurt. Today March 20, 2023 I saw her for the second time, and while I was in the treatment, I moved much more than the first appointment, I saw a blue and a yellow light and I felt asleep. After my appointment, she explained to me the importance of this incidents. My body is responding to the treatment and working towards becoming balanced. I recommend Dr Angelica Kokkalis, and I thank her for sharing her knowledge and for caring for my well-being.

    -Martha L.

    I came to Angelica with chronic head pain 24/7 and a migraine at least once a week, sometimes twice. This has been going on for at least 3-4 years now with no relief. I have previously had numerous visits with neurologists, doctor visits, and many other treatments that just didn't work. No one has been able to help me; until now. Angelica looked at my health history and instead of treating me with another pill like everyone else, decided to really dig deep to find the root of the problem. She has been very knowledgeable. I really enjoy coming to her place of business for my treatments. Her home has a sense of calm to it. I am still currently in the process of receiving my treatments but I have had many days where I have been pain free. I cannot tell you how happy I have been from being someone with pain all the time, to having days where I can enjoy my life. I use a unit to help with my headaches when I am at home and that helps me so much as well. Everything takes time, but I would recommend Angelica in a heartbeat for anyone who has been dealing with pain. I truly believe she can help you.

    -Courtney G.

    Angelica is an absolute joy and has helped me immensely! I went to see her for an old knee injury that I sustained about 3 years ago (runners knee + patellar tendinitis). I've been in PT 4 times, gotten an x-ray, an MRI, seen 3 doctors, and nothing seemed to help the pain go away. My knee seemed to have built up a lot of trauma, because each session with Angelica I seemed to be going backwards in my pain history (i.e., finding the root of the problem). Each session, she helped heal a part of my knee. I am so thankful for her healing hands, her care, and her knowledge! I can not recommend her enough.

    -Allie K H

    I visited Dr.Angelica’s clinic along with a friend for my first ever experience with ancient Chinese medicine. I got cupping therapy with 8 cups on my back. The results are unbelievable. I felt so fresh immediately after the therapy. My head was not foggy anymore. A lot of the deoxygenated blood and dead tissue is eliminated from your blood stream and I could feel the difference. Increased energy levels, increased sex drive, and mood was elevated. Apart from the therapy itself, it was a priceless experience just to meet Dr. Angelica and spend time in her beautiful home. She really knows what she’s doing and what she’s talking about! It was a rejuvenating experience. Highly recommend her! I will definitely go back for future therapy.

    -Jatin K.

    I have been going to Angelica for a little over two years for acupuncture. It has been a life changer. I have to admit I was a little skeptical at first, I was dealing with depression and had been prescribed meds by another doctor. After six months on the meds I was back to feeling the same as I did before I started. That is when I found Angelica, she was able to balance me using acupuncture. I’m happily off meds and feel like myself again. Thank you Angelica! During my journey we have become friends, she is easy to talk to, always makes me laugh and always has my best interest at heart. I have and would recommend her to everyone I know dealing with their own challenges.

    -Janelle B.

    Dr. Angelica saved my life, plan and simple. I came to see here for my shoulder pain in the rotator cuff area and back pain from scoliosis. I was ready to file for disability. I had seen an acupuncturist and chiropractors over the years so I was expecting some relief but what I got was a miracle. We began treatments, she knew exactly where to work and what to do on my body. With her wisdom, knowledge, and compassion for the human body my spine has straightened almost 100%. I am feeling comfort in places I didn't know I was uncomfortable. Life is better now. God Bless You Dr. Angelica and thank you for all you have done for me.

    -Justin H.

    I had chronic pain level 10 for over 30 years due to a car accident. I had tried conventional medicine Including going to Mayo clinic with no success. From the day I started seeing my Angel, five years ago my pain decreased 75% to 80%. Total life changing.
    Her companionate personality, along with her knowledge in herbal medicine and the use of the HANS stimulator, helped me have my life back again. The first day I walked into her office I prayed for God to either take me or her being the answer to my prayers.
    God totally provided me with my earth angel, Angelica Kokkalis. She also took care of my family including my husband's arthritis and shoulder blade pain due to work related injury. I highly recommend her. I live over an hour away and time and distance is insignificant because of the success we had together.

    -Therese A.

    I feel complete gratitude for Dr. Angelica Kokkalis. I am so appreciative to have experienced her wisdom, healing techniques, guidance, energy, and compassion. I met with Dr. Kokkalis with severe back pain and a pelvic tilt. I could barely walk or sit upright. I met with her several times a week and experienced numerous different healing techniques, like cupping and acupuncture. It took 6 different treatments until I felt light and completely pain free. Dr. Kokkalis offered me her expertise and helped educate me on what I could do in between the treatments to help with the healing process. I found my body and mind to be completely open and trusting to not only her techniques, but also her wisdom, and my body and mind began to regain balance and started healing. Traditional medicine is not always a quick healing process and it may take several treatments. The insight, patience, and trust you gain from the experience and simply knowing that you are healing your body naturally is well worth the time and money.

    -Anne S.

    We’ve historically relied on alternative medicine. Even that seems odd to type, since Western Medicine has its place, of course. But it has limitations also. It is refreshing to know Angelica’s practice is here where one might not expect to find, given the culture climate, generally speaking. We are grateful. Angelica is no nonsense. She is wise, gifted, empathetic, and gifted. See her.

    -Jay A.

    Thank you Dr. Kokkalis (aka Dr. K) for helping me heal my frozen shoulder. Dr. K diagnosed me on my first visit and was able to treat me immediately. Dr. K has immense experience and knowledge and is warm and kind. If you have any symptoms, Dr. K is one of the best! I am so thankful and blessed for help.

    -Eddie N.

    I started going to Dr Kokkalis about 3 months ago to work on hormone balance. I have definitely noticed that I feel better and improvement in symptoms. Dr Kokkalis is a great listener and really helps to explain the process. I'm so glad I reached out to Dr Kokkalis. She's amazing!

    -Ellen W.

    I am so grateful to have been treated by Dr. Kokkalis. She is extremely skilled and compassionate, and has extensive knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine. I received the best possible treatment and she has my trust for life. Besides diagnosing and successfully treating the problem that I originally came in for, she enhanced other areas of physical and emotional health for me, and I feel like a new person.

    -Linda A.

    I just got done with a 6 session treatment plan and I am very happy with my acupuncture services from Dr. Kokkalis.
    I get acupuncture to help me with pain management from an old injury. My results after 6 sessions is an elimination of pain and inflammation to the injured area. I am back to full mobility. The area doesn’t even feel injured. Now that I am feeling better, I am back to doing the activates I avoided due to the pain. I plan to continue to use Dr. Kokkalis services for maintaining relief for my carpal tunnel since I work on a computer all day. (a separate issue from the injured area.)

    -Hillary P.

    Highly recommend. I have been seeing Dr. Angelica for a month. The inflammation on my face has calmed down. Dr. Angelica was able to immediately identify and acknowledge my inflammations by viewing my qi information sheet. I have had trouble over the years getting doctors to understand I didn't feel well. It is a relief to work with a doctor who understands why I am unwell and how to help me improve my well being. I had been trying to taper from an SSRI for a long time. After working with Dr. Angelica, I have successfully tapered off my Zoloft with regular acupuncture treatments, Chinese herbs, yoga and mentorship with a therapist.

    -Andrea L.

    Dr. Kokkalis is an amazing doctor. I took my 2 year old daughter with chronic lung disease and pulmonary hypertension to see Dr.Kokkalis as her condition kept worsening and western doctors were no help. She was on the lung transplant list and each day her oxygen needs got worse and worse. She has been on supplemental oxygen since birth and doctors told us to prepare for a lung and possible heart transplant as her condition was that bad. As soon as Dr. Kokkalis took over, she slowly started to regain her energy and each day she has gotten better. Her pulmonologist/cardiologist are amazed at her progress and can’t believe her turn around. We’ve seen Dr. Kokkalis for roughly 8 months or so and we are confident our daughter will make a full recovery under Dr. Kokkalis’ care. She is an amazing doctor who we are forever grateful for and we will refer anyone we know to her!

    -J B

    I was in terrible pain after being diagnosed with a frozen shoulder . After visiting the doctor, I was prescribed prednisone and referred to sports medicine for physical therapy. I decided to go to Dr. Kokkalis for help with my pain. My pain was gone after only one treatment. It was amazing! I trust her and recommend her 100%!

    -Mindy T.

    After many years of living with ankle pain from an old injury, I went to Dr. Kokkalis for an acupuncture treatment. I received much more than that. She used Gua Sha to reduce scar tissue and gave me guidance for self care at home. After a few visits the swelling is down and I can see my ankle bone (first time in years), I no longer wake up at night with throbbing pain, and I no longer limp at the end of the day.

    -Kathryn S.

    As a cancer survivor with arthritis in the joints of my hands, I was unwilling to take drugs that would reduce my immune response, so I tried acupuncture with Angelica, who was trained in China. After five treatments, and actually within days, the swelling in my joints was down dramatically, and the pain significantly reduced. I have no had any incidents, so far, of throbbing pain in any joint, which I have had intermittently. And the bonus of having no side effects as with taking any drug.

    -John A.

    Dr. Angelica Kokkalis is a marvelous physician and healer. I made an urgent appointment last weekend as I woke up with crippling lower back pain. She stopped it with just one treatment!

    -James M.

    Best Dr.ever. She has great personality and her main concern is her patients. Very knowledgeable and expert in her field.
    She took care of my pain with one treatment. Very grateful for having her in our community.

    -Dennis M.

    Dr Angelica Kokkalis gave me hope when multiple (4 Western practicing) doctors could not. Before I saw Angelica I saw a Dermatologist, GP, Optometrist, and the ER DR. None of them could diagnose me. Dr Angelica looks at the root cause of your ailment and works with you directly to heal your body. Dr Angelica Kokkalis takes the time to listen to you and really hear what is going on. You must be open to what Angelica tells you - it may seem a bit unconventional. BUT Dr Kokkalis's and can help you if you are willing to help yourself and are willing to listen to what she tells you to do to aid in your recovery! I am eternally grateful for Angelica's creativity and knowledge about medicine and the whole body. I wish I had found Dr Angelica earlier in my illness.

    -Christina C.

    Dr. Angelica was very easy to talk to and listened to everything I had to say. She was very informative and showed an amazing amount of knowledge on Chinese Medicine.

    -Xavier B.

    I found Angelica when I had tried all else for my health. What a blessing she is! I had never considered Eastern medicine but I am convinced now, and recommend Angelica for everyone who values their health.

    -MJ G.

    Dr. Angelica Kokkalis has helped me with my sciatic nerve pain. She is an amazing acupuncturist and I would highly recommend her to anyone who suffers from sciatic pain.

    -Andriana P.

    I’m so glad I found Anjelica. She has changed my life. I was in a car accident almost a year ago and I’ve tried everything!! She and her techniques will change your outlook on healing inside out. Thank you thank you thank you!😊

    -Betsy N.

    I highly recommend If you want to feel better and have a better quality of life, this is where you need to go. She treats you with the upmost respect and is very knowledgeable. She has saved my life!

    -Kelli P.

    I have two Morton neuroma's that Angelica has helped me with. The orthopedic Dr I was seeing tried a cortisone injection that did not phase the pain. So I found Angelic on the internet, called her and she knew exactly what to do. It has taken some treatments, but she told me that neuroma's are stubborn and that it would take time. But I am finally at a point I can go a month without pain before I need to go back. I have only been seeing Angelica for 8 month's. I also have arthritis and carpel tunnel and she has helped me with those problems as well. It is amazing how I can walk in in pain and walk out pain free. The needles may hurt at first but you lay there and within 10 minutes the pain is gone! She is amazing.

    -Jeni M.

    I respect Dr Kokkalis knowledge and trust her decisions. She is very friendly and she can handle all information in an appropriate manner. I highly recommend her.

    -Thomas L.

    I researched the central Indiana area for the BEST Acupuncture Specialists. I believe Angelica to be an Exceptional Acupuncture Specialist among them. Her Knowledge base & roots go directly to China from Master's & Doctors & Hospitals in China. She helped me with excruciating Psoriatic Arthritis Pain in my ankles, knees, & elbows. I entered her care a sceptic & left a BELIEVER! I noticed results on my walk back to my car on the 1st visit!!! My PAIN was SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED! I've returned for Several months & my pain has diminished. I've avoided pain medication & used her advice on herbal remedies & My blood tests of my liver, & kidney functions improved!!! I would recommend her even to a "sceptic". I appreciate her talents & knowledge & skills. She also did Electrical Acupuncture which increased the effectiveness in my opinion.

    -Rusty F.

    Dr. Kokkalis treated with respect and kindness when I was seeking treatment. She practices effective alternative medicine that improved my quality of living.

    -Norma

    In the occasion I exposed to her some minor problems I have been suffering with my liver for years and that the western medicine was very unsuccessfully solving: Doctor Angelica identified clearly my problem and with her pills she solved a problem I have had for 20 years. The Chinese medicine and plants are unknown to many in the west but they have remarkable properties to say the least!

    -Giacinto G.

    I want you to know that I am pain-free from the plantar fasciitis. Thank you very much.

    -Garret M.

    I feel better. I also have a better sleep. I feel good.

    What you did for her foot today helped substantially…Nancy will do just about anything you ask of her as she knows that you have already helped her quite a bit and have given her hope that she will recover. I’m so grateful to you.

    -Charles T.

    Since getting treatments from you I can tell a big difference in the way I feel. Thanks so much Angelica for all you have helped with, you really have made a huge difference already.
