Dr. Katin has helped me many times with my emotional health and stress-related digestive issues. When I see her, I feel like I have been "put back together" and I feel a sense inner peace. When I see her regularly, I do not get colds as frequently, my stress feels lower and my digestion is great. If you have any reservations, may I say that she is one of THE BEST acupuncturists out there. She is compassionate, experienced, gentle and effective. I wholeheartedly trust Melanie with my health.

Dr Melanie Katin is amazing! I went in for migraines and I haven’t had one since I started going. It’s a very comfortable and relaxing environment and I look forward to my appointments. Dr Katin listens to my concerns thoroughly and personalizes my treatment in order to help me stay pain free. I’ve tried everything to get rid of migraines that I’ve had for 15+ years including medication and nothing has worked until I tried acupuncture! Highly recommend.

Entering this establishment, the first thing I felt was the positive energy. I love lavender and the smell permeated the air. The cleanliness and how quiet it was makes me feel better instantly. Melanie listened attentively and made you feel comfortable. The service was exceptional. Thank you Dr. Melanie

I am so grateful for my experience with Dr. Katin. She is knowledgable, really listens, and integrates her expertise in a way that is truly complementary with the western medical system. I was new to acupuncture, and cannot recommend more highly.

I have seen Dr. Katin for a few months now to help relieve stress and maintain a healthy lifestyle, and she has been consistently offering the highest quality of care to me. You can be certain that she is very knowledgable and experienced with Chinese medicine, offering many modalities of treatment, but what's even better is that her kindness and positivity will certainly uplift you. She is truly a good listener and supporter of her patients for whatever they are going through. I always felt amazing after each of her treatment, and I thank her for helping keep my body healthy. Happy to have found a wellness place that I am 100% satisfied.

I recently relocated from PA and was quite concerned about finding a new acupuncturist. After searching for weeks, I began working with Dr. Katin. She is amazingly knowledgable and utilizes a range of different modalities. Equally important, though, she is caring and compassionate and deeply committed. I am so grateful to have found her.

Melanie Katan is a very experienced and caring professional I go to on a regular basis especially for low back pain. However, she skillfully treats the whole person. I recommend her to my friends.

Dr. Melanie Katin is the best! I have been seeing her for about two years for chronic injury and pain issues. Her treatments not only help with pain but also increase my well-being in a holistic sense. Her knowledge, commitment, and focus on the patient are top-notch, and the Evanston Health Collective is a soothing and healing environment. Evanston is very fortunate to have Dr. Katin here. I give her my highest recommendation!

Dr. Katin is the real deal. My current acupuncturist recommended I see her for an herbal consultation in hopes that, by adding herbs to my current health and well-being regimen, I could finally alleviate some rather painful physical symptoms I had on and off for the last few years. I was hesitant at first. I had seen another acupuncturist/herbalist years ago and didn't feel much relief - especially for the amount of money I was spending. I met with Dr. Katin virtually. After a thorough conversation (and I mean thorough!), she formulated herbs that could be shipped directly to my home. Such an easy process! I started taking the herbs and found relief within a matter of days. We continue to check in and she is adjusting my protocol bit by bit. I am so glad that I listened to my current acupuncturist and started working with Dr. Katin! If you are on the fence about next steps in your health and well-being journey, do not hesitate to make an appointment with Dr. Katin. She is kind, knowledgeable, intentional, and compassionate.

Melanie is amazing. I started seeing her for one issue, and she helped me with that and many others. The whole experience is soothing, and several times I dozed off. She is empathetic, compassionate, and has such a calming demeanor. Sessions with her helped me feel better, much better! both physically and mentally.

Melanie is an amazing acupuncturist. She continues to help me tremendously as I recover from a complicated surgery. Not only have her sessions and herbs made a big difference, she is so knowledgeable about the human body. She has given me valuable advice which has also given me hope. Melanie also has a very kind and genuine demeanor and I trust her.

I've been going to see Melanie for two years now, for anything from recurrent shoulder pain to immune system support and general "re-sets." She is wonderful. For example, her treatments make my shoulder feel brand new, and I cope so much better with life's stressors. She gives great advice, as well as connecting acupuncture and herbal medicine with conventional medical treatments and procedures. I totally recommend her!

Highly recommend! I have been seeing Melanie for almost three years. Her approach is very gentle and effective. She is a great listener. She is kind and empathic. She was a lifeline for me during a very difficult time and she continues to provide invaluable support and fabulous acupuncture tune-ups. Thank you!

This is my follow up visit after my first one a couple weeks ago. Dr. Melanie Katin is so knowledgeable and so able to explain the deep complexities of how our bodies respond to acupuncture. I have a lot of work to do and will be back soon to further benefit from Dr. Katin's genius and compassion.

Dr. Katin is extremely knowledgeable and experienced in both acupuncture and Chinese herbs. She is also very kind and thoughtful.

Melanie is an excellent practitioner who applies her experience and analytical skills to solve one's health issues. She has the right temperament to deliver the message so that you feel motivated to make the minor lifestyle and medical adjustments to greatly improve one's quality of life. Because of Melanie's herbal prescriptions and advice, I have been able to increase my energy so that I can function optimally in my daily office work and leisure. Not only is she an amazing acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist, she is an outstanding coach. I think she is a game changer. Thank you, Melanie.

I am so grateful for Dr.Katin's treatments. She is caring, knowledgeable and an expert in her craft. I had never tried acupuncture before and Dr.Katin put me at ease and I left the office feeling so much better. Continued visits have made a profound difference in my health!

I have been seeing Melanie for about a year now for issues related to peri-menopause and she has helped me so much! She listens, asks questions and keeps excellent notes, which is extremely helpful to understand progress being made over time. She has also suggested herbal formulas which have been very helpful and she has provided many other types guidance in wellness areas I was unaware of. If you have a complex health issue that requires patience and understanding, Melanie is truly an amazing practitioner!

This was my first session. It felt amazing. I really cannot express how great it feels to work on my health issues in this context. Super safe and uplifting as well as knowledgeable and practical. Looking forward to my follow up.
