Ive been receiving acupuncture from Ashley for well over a year now and shes wonderful! I go for general maintenance every month, and its something I look forward to, as I always end up feeling good and well cared for after I leave. She also does a little massage and cupping on my upper back and neck, as I hold a lot of tension in there. She listens carefully to what Im dealing with at the moment and adjusts the care accordingly.I also have just went to Johnny for a massage for the first time. We did a partial lymphatic drainage massage and then some deeper tissue massage for tension in my neck and back. Let me tell you - I walked out of there with my shoulders 3 inches lower than when I walked in. He released SO much tension in my neck and back - Ill be going again. He listened to me and explained the lymphatic drainage massage procedure, and gave me lots of tips to do at home.Together, Ashley & Johnny are a dynamic duo of wellness right in Davis Sq. and I would recommend them to others who are looking for some help & relief.

Since having a massage with John Finn for the first time (years ago), I only go to him for my massages. Johns massages are a next-level experience.John himself has a grounded, compassionate aura, and just his presence in ones energy field is grounding, soothing and healing. Gently and rhythmically, he unfurls even the toughest deep-seeded knots and pulls, unbinding restrictions and freeing circulation and movement to flow, all without using brute force or causing pain. What was once bound and buried is made open and fluid, fresh and light.No aggressive clash between the muscles tightness and the masseuses releases. John uses peaceful techniques to bring peace to his clients body. He has reached the masterful level of his art where, like artists in any field, he expressed his heart genuinely through his high-level techniques, truly making them his own. This is the bridge that sets John apart -- his ability to express his compassion through massage in a wholly compassionate and gentle way, even when faced with difficult cases (like mine! 😂)After Johns massages, I feel renewed, physically and energetically. I have never experienced such deep release before, and that it is achieved without causing pain is incredible. I have learned from John that calmness is not born of brute force.I cannot recommend John Finn highly enough. He is a gift and a rarity, and I am so grateful for his sharing his healing gifts with us all. Thank you, John!

Over the last 20 years of my life, I’ve tried everything to help my chronic pain.I was convinced by a friend to give Ash a try, even though acupuncture didn’t work for me in the past, and it has been LIFE CHANGING! I can open my jaw all the way, which I haven’t been able to do since 2007!! Stop trying fancy gadgets to release muscle tension and RUN to SavePoint! You will not regret it.

I couldnt say enough good things about power couple acupuncturist and massage therapist/PT Ashley and Johnny at Save Point:I started working with Ashley for chronic back pain and fertility support right around when I moved to Boston two years ago; her expertise and empathy were so evident that my husband started to see her as well for joint pain and stress management. (For anyone pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or trying to recover from being pregnant - Ashley is someone you want in your corner before/during/after.)Then - in pregnancy, suddenly my 411 frame was growing in all directions, and I have had all sorts of muscle/nerve discomfort in the transition. Ashleys awesome husband Johnny entered the picture, and Ive seen him alongside Ash for the last few months. His advice on how to stretch and maintain posture in between appointments is as valuable as his attention to detail untangling pain points on the table.I will definitely being seeing them both for the long term and recommend either highly -- but especially both!

In the time Ive known her, Ashley has always had a gift that she has managed to broaden her knowledge on and cultivate into her everyday life. Ive first hand experienced benefits of her art. After a horrible accident in which I flipped my car I quickly began to realize the definition of chronic pain. I hurt in places I didnt even know existed. My doctors prescribed me countless pills but I didnt want to numb the pain I wanted to help heal in a natural and safe way. I wanted to mend I didnt want to mask the pain! With Ashleys love and guidance I was cared for and given the knowledge I needed to get back to my daily life and routine without the constant pain.Whether you require acupuncture, herbs, aromatherapy, cupping, etc. Ashley takes the time to understand your lifestyle and what best suits your needs. She educates her clients to give them the best results! You dont feel like your another patient, you feel cared for.Among her amazing skill set shes a very prompt and professional woman. Shes an absolute pleasure to be around!Do yourself and your body a favor

Ashley has been my provider for a few years. Her compassion for care is what keeps me coming back. I appreciate how she is able to read my body, and feel where it needs help/release. Though there are some points that are uncomfortable while my body is evaluated, she will always listen to me and then readjust her approach to continue to provide incredible care and healing for me. I will always recommend her services to any of my friends who are open to a different approach at healing. Definitely give her a try!

Ive seen Ashley numerous times for treatment and have only had good experiences. Shes a thoughtful, empathetic practitioner who always takes time to listen to you and develop custom treatment for your needs. After years of feeling like I was not being heard by doctors, it was such a joy to receive that kind of care. Every time Ive seen Ashley, I leave feeling like my body got just what it needed. I highly recommend Save Point!

I met Ashley while she was employed as an acupuncturist elsewhere. I could tell pretty quickly that she outshined the rest of the place in professionalism and personality, and was able to find out it was true firsthand. After a few sessions, she was able to fix my problem and I was back to pre-appointment life as usual. That was a while ago, so when a different issue came up, she was the first solution I thought of. I was ecstatic to learn shed started up her own business in Somerville, which was way closer to me. After several sessions, I was back on my feet yet again, and now that shes in the neighborhood, Im going to be going regularly for general wellness, and I highly recommend you consider doing the same!

Ash was my first experience with acupuncture so I was incredibly nervous to give this therapy a shot & with someone I never worked with before & wasnt sure what to expect from it. My worries quickly went away through as soon as I stepped into her office. Each step of the way Ash explained what she was doing, why, & how I might feel during & afterwards. She listened to my explanation of what felt wrong/off in my body & what physically I had trouble doing, & what goals I had for myself with my body.It was such a relief to feel included in each step of the way & eased my nerves over trying this therapy as I felt seen & heard & she trusted me to know my body best. She also is an incredibly warm presence & loves to laugh which makes the experience (of getting stuck with needles) less scary & feels more like having a body-session with a trusted companion. Even after our sessions, shes great with checking in to see how symptoms are persisting or changing & regularly will recommend other products that might help in addition to these services as well as consult on what physical limits you might need in the short-term vs. long-term to help healing progress.I have chronic arthritis in my knees from a long history of long distance running & martial arts & have lingering ligament injuries that flare up from time to time & although Ive done physical therapy & massage & CBD balms & a handful of other treatments, it was her acupuncture that helped my knee stabilize so that I could get back to doing sports that I love & walk down stairs without thinking, Ok, here we go, brace for knee buckling! Shes a joy to be around & her practice is magical for your joints.

I have been going to savepoint for about 3 weeks now for my bells palsy and have seen significant results, I have almost healed when nothing else was working. Additionally, each time I go I am asked if there are any other issues going on and a treatment plan is done based on any new symptoms/conditions. She goes above & beyond each time. Extremely professional and will strongly recommend to family/friends.

Have been here a couple times now, definitely feeling/seeing more promising results than a few other places in town. I suggest booking an appointment and seeing for yourself.
