Young Pine Acupuncture

We provide holistic healthcare for patients in Beaverton Oregon.

Licensed Acupuncturist Sarah Frances Butler Fan is NCCAOM certified in acupuncture and herbal medicine. She provides diet, exercise and lifestyle advice, as appropriate within the context of the acupuncture session.

Acupuncture is becoming increasingly recognized as a great method of preventative care and a complement to Allopathic (Western) medicine. Frances often has doctors refer patients to acupuncture for headaches, pain, sports injuries, stress or anxiety and digestive disorders as well as other complaints. She also enjoys working alongside Physical Therapists, Massage Therapists and Chiropractors to ensure her patients progress as fast as possible in recovery. Because acupuncture has its roots in traditional East Asian medicine, it can provide a unique way of looking at stubborn conditions that may not have responded well to other therapies in the past.

By treating holistically, the body, mind and emotions are all cared for.

Testimonials

S. Frances Butler L.Ac., M.Ac.O.M is amazing!! I have always avoided acupuncture for health because of the needles… I hate getting shots!!! However, a severe foot injury and massive nerve damage had left me feeling let down by established American Medicine. A friend massaged my feet using a pressure point technique and suggested Chinese Medicine as a viable medical solution. I was not prepared for the wonderful experience I had with Frances Butler. I was very needy when I saw Frances for the first time. Her gentle confident and positive manner put me at ease, she listened to my needs with care. When it came time for the “needles”… ooohhh…. hmmm… I didn’t feel what I expected.. pain of course.. the fear of the piercing!!! NO I didn’t feel pain. What happened was warm, loving, presence. I was surrounded by a bath of glowing, nurturing, healing. I decided to see Frances weekly. I have had a decided improvement in my feet and my general feeling of well being. If you are considering acupuncture I recommend S. Frances Butler of Young Pine Acupuncture in SW Portland for your first time because of her skill, her education, her ability and willingness to work with whatever situation you are dealing with regarding traditional medicine. I am very grateful to her for the very effective medical help I have received!

Frances brought me from depending on pain killers to a healthier and higher performing self. She listens carefully and makes informed suggestions on treatment(s), and other helpful lifestyle changes. She is also very patient when this patient doesn’t always follow directions!! She has quelled the pain and keeps it away, as well as treating moods, and anxiety issues. She is very caring and dedicated to her work and it is proven in the results achieved. Not bad for a guy terrified of needles!!! Words cannot thank you enough Frances; you are a blessing!!!!

You are my life saver! :) I really appreciate for your kindness with very effective treatment, the time when I lost too much weight under extreme stress. As soon as I got the wrist band (for the pressure points) and start taking the herbal medicine, I stopped throwing up after eating, and next day I got better appetite. Now, I got my normal weight in very good health :) Without your help I could not make the transition to new career. Thank you very much for helping me out from the difficult situation.
