I am leaving with a lot more energy and will certainly be coming back when I can!” – Kinan Whyte

With her diligent care, I was able to avoid the hospital when I had Covid w/Pneumonia in June. I have used her soaps, tinctures and Pitz Spritz, all amazing! Thank you.” – Jennifer Lambert

“Dr. Fritz is an amazing practitioner! Myself and my family have been treated by her for over 3 years for a variety of issues including back pain, fertility challenges, allergies, and general illness like colds. We love that she is an expert in creating and prescribing herbal formulas as these have kept our family as healthy as possible (yes, even our toddler!). I trust her with any issue I have come up and refer friends, family, and clients to her often. You won’t regret choosing her to be your acupuncture physician.” – Brittany Coblentz
