East Winds Acupuncture

The wonderful staff at East Winds have become like family over the past year. So grateful for their expertise and kind care for their patients. My husband and I started acupuncture with them for infertility, through our IVF journey and throughout my pregnancy. Our baby girl is due any day now, and after many years of infertility, we are incredibly grateful to Dr. Diane & Stephanie for helping us grow our family. They’ve also helped improve our health in many ways, including improving mental health, sleep apnea and more. They are compassionate, attentive and a wealth of knowledge — helping look at the whole person, health history and changes in diet and supplements too. And so grateful for the warm welcome and care from Monika every time we come in — you are a gift!

I cant begin to say enough wonderful things about Dr. Diane! I began seeing her about a year ago for infertility and the journey has been absolutely amazing. Right from my first appointment with her, I was struck by her professionalism, caring bedside manner, and expertise (I am also a healthcare professional). She takes so much time with her patients to understand their health history and infertility journey. After weekly visits for about 4 months, we received the exciting news that we were pregnant (without medications), and I continued to see Dr. Diane regularly during my pregnancy. I firmly believe that doing acupuncture prior to conceiving not only helped me to get pregnant, but also balanced my body to make sure I was in peak health before hand. If you are struggling with fertility, I would absolutely recommend acupuncture, and specifically Dr. Diane. We are so lucky to have her here in COS!

I truly wish I could rate East Winds Acupuncture even higher than five stars! I have been going only since the beginning of July but can say that my experience with both Dr. Diane and Dr. Sarah has changed my life! Every time I leave I think to myself, “How was I not doing this sooner?” My anxiety has decreased and treatments are helping me as my husband and I go through our IVF fertility journey. Both women are exceptionally knowledgeable and also helpful when answering questions and providing helpful quality of life tips. I recommend them to all of my friends and family. Acupuncture has 100% changed my life for the better, but I do believe that my experience is made even stronger because of Dr. Diane’s and Dr. Sarah’s care. They cannot be duplicated and I highly recommend them!Also both ladies at the front desk are always very helpful and kind!

Dr. Diane is so passionate about what she does and incredibly vested in the overall health of her patients. Working with her through the IVF process made everything easier on me. The support from her and the entire office staff was so appreciated through such a stressful process. I would recommend her to everyone.

I love love love this place and the staff! I can not say enough about Dr. Diane and her staff. Dr. Diane and Dr. Sarah are amazing! Tamara and Monica are wonderful! Dr. Diane is so caring, loving, knowledgeable and very supportive. Everytime you go there, everyone makes you feel like family. If i could afford to get my acupuncture sessions done every single day, I definitely would! Thats how amazing they are. I feel so relaxed and stress free after every session and have noticed a great difference in my stress level and overall health. If you are looking for a place to get your acupuncture treatments and much more, this is the place. You wont regret it!

Dr. Diane and her team are absolutely amazing! I went through IVF to have my beautiful babies and Dr. Diane was with me every step of the way. She is definitely an expert in her craft and she explains the reasons behind her treatment plan so that everyone is on the same page. I went through 2 retrievals and only 1 transfer cycle of IVF to be blessed with my twins. I truly believe acupuncture helped not only with my IVF process but it also helped with me having a healthy pregnancy with healthy beautiful babies. If you are looking for an amazing doctor that really cares about your well being, I highly suggest you give East Winds Acupuncture a call. Thank you again Dr. Diane and Team!

Dr. Diane has been such a huge part of my athletic career and life. She has been able to help treat me through recovery from hip surgery, many minor injuries, as well as digestive and any body issues or concerns I am having. I feel that in every session she really tries to treat all of my concerns and truly cares about me and helping to get me to feeling and performing at my best. The East Winds Acupuncture office has a great vibe and they are always great about working with my schedule to find times for me to get in for a treatment or just to pick up a supplement. I have noticed a huge transformation in my athletics and life by seeing Dr. Diane and trust that she will provide me with great quality care each visit.

Dr. Diane is incredible’ I saw her through my high risk pregnancy and in postpartum. It’s so apparent that she has a genuine passion for mamas and their babies. She was VERY knowledgeable and caring during every stage and I honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else for acupuncture care!

I was Dianes intern for a couple of years so I had the advantage of not only learning from her but also watching how she treats her clients. And I have to say, She is one of the best acupuncturist that you can find. Diane is Extremely knowledgeable in this field and continues to research to stay abreast of the latest findings and research to give her clients the best possible outcomes available. Shes not only gifted with intellect but her heart for her clients is absolutely beautiful. She truly cares about your wellbeing. Her desire is for you to live a positive productive lifestyle and will work for you to gain it and obtain it. If youve never tired acupuncture before this is the place to start.

Dr. Diane is AMAZING! After going through multiple failed fertility treatments, I decided acupuncture would be worth a shot. Knowing what I do now, I wish I would have started treatments with Dr. Diane before undergoing emotional and expensive fertility procedures! After just 3 acupuncture treatments I was able to conceive NATURALLY! If you are reading this and are having problems TTC, PLEASE give acupuncture a chance. I cant speak higher about Dr. Diane, shes incredibly kind and knowledgeable.

Dr. Diane is an amazing and compassionate Doctor. She helped my husband and I get pregnant, and I have continued seeing her through my pregnancy. She takes such good care of you. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

I credit East Winds Acupuncture for helping me to get pregnant. After numerous losses and years of fertility struggles I decided to try a natural approach and do some self healing. Within the first month I became pregnant naturally. I have severe allergies as well. These sessions have brought my sensitivities down drastically and I’m feeling much more energetic, more patient and loving life. We’re so excited to welcome our baby girl into the world. I would definitely recommend this practice and Dr Diane Cridennda.

I sought out Eastern Medicine to assist with my menopausal symptoms. As a Physical Therapist I truly believe in the body’s ability to heal itself.Dr. Diane is a wonderful practitioner. She is kind, wise, professional, and highly Skilled in Acupuncture. I had 3 clinic visits and saw 75-80% reduction of my drenching hot flashes.I continue to take an herbal supplement prescribed by Dr. Diane and continue to experience ongoing relief.I used funds from our HSA to cover treatments.I am very grateful my Primary Care Physician recommended this type of alternative treatment and steered me towards East Winds Acupuncture..What a gift. ❤️

Dr Diane created the first United States based research program analyzing the impact of Acupuncture on IVF patients. This work has and continues to be used by IVF centers and Acupuncturists around the world. She is a dedicated teacher, an amazing researcher and the most compassionate physician I have ever met. I recommend all my patients to her and even if they are unable to see Dr Diane because they live in another state or country, Dr. Diane always has time to help them or their acupuncturist. She is truly a treasure and vessel of hope to many thousands of infertile couples. thanks Dr. Diane, keep up the amazing work. Dr. Paul C Magarelli, FACOG

Dr. Diane is amazing! I went to her for multiple health issues as well as during my pregnancy. She is extremely knowledgeable and digs deep to find the root cause. I have only had a great experience with her care. I am a firm believer in the healing powers of Chinese medicine after being treated by her!!!!!

Dr. Diane is absolutely fantastic! Not only is she extremely knowledgeable but, she is caring and compassionate. She is extremely skilled and is very dedicated to her field. She involves herself in and keeps up with the latest research in acupuncture. I highly recommend Dr. Diane for anyone seeking acupuncture and oriental medicine treatment.

As a fellow clinician, I have to say that Diane is one of the most dedicated and skilled clinicians I have had the honor to work with. In addition to being an amazing clinician, she has made a significant to the field of reproductive medicine through her extensive research. If my sister lived in Colorado, Diane would be the only person I would consider sending her to. You are in excellent hands in her care.Kirsten Karchmer, CEO Conceivable

Dr. Diane is caring, compassionate, knowledegable, experienced, and perceptive. I had seen a few acupuncturists before I met Diane, but none of them were able to bring about immediate tangible and noticable results like Dianes protocols do. Ive been a patient of Dianes for a year now, and she has completely changed my life for the better.

I was recommended to East Winds in November of 2017. Since I’ve started my weekly acupuncture treatments, I’ve become more cautious of my carb intake with the useful tips from Dr. Diane, which has helped me lose weight. Last month, I had my thyroid levels rechecked and all or my levels are in normal range, and it has been confirmed that I do not have Graves Disease! I know that acupuncture and the advice and guidance from Dr. Diane and Dr. Sara has really contributed to the positive life changes I have been experiencing, I’m grateful for them!

I cannot even say enough amazing things about my experience at east winds acupuncture!! Dr. Cridenda is incredibly kind, knowledgeable, thorough, and WONDERFUL!! I began care during my 36th week of pregnancy, when I learned that my baby was in a breech position. After a couple of weeks of consistent treatments, I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. My labor was completely unmedicated and without complication. She was positioned perfectly for birth, because of the support and care I received with Dr. Diane! I felt so encouraged and motivated going into my birth experience. I would absolutely, 100% refer anyone looking for amazing, life changing care to east winds!

Ive been seeing Dr. Diane for well over a year, since my sister recommended her for my poor immune system and other chronic conditions, even though Im highly active. Dr. Diane, being an athlete herself, recommended a few courses of action to begin with that would help fix my gut issues (which were the root cause of many problems), improve my energy levels and help recover from some past injuries. Because she is so willing to spend time and actually listen to your symptoms, she is able to treat you as an individual and not simply brush things off as normal. Ive had some great improvements, in mental clarity and energy and we are continuing to work on maintaining and fixing those little things that pop up unexpectedly. It is really nice to work with someone you can trust to have your best interest at heart!

I began going to Dr. Diane for multiple health issues more than 2 years ago. After seeing her consistently I began to see many positive changes in my health. She is extremely knowledge on so many levels especially dealing with Athletes and the everyday stressors and injuries that athletes face. I also saw her throughout my entire pregnancy! I would highly recommend East Winds Acupuncture!!

I found East Winds Acupuncture while looking for a qualified person to do cupping to treat my endometriosis. Im so pleased to say that they offer SO much more than cupping. Acupuncture, herbs, nutritional help, moxa, ear seeds and more. Ive been feeling much better overall in such a short time! Ive seen both Dr. Diane and Dr. Sara and both are excellent practitioners! Highly, highly recommend.

Dr. Diane is incredibly thorough and patient. Seeing her has truly made my quality of life better. I’ve seen great improvement in both allergy and PMS symptoms.

I had the honor of serving on the American Board of Oriental Medicine with Diane. She was always professional. I have found her to be a great source of information and she constantly offers help to the new ABORM fellows in both Western and Eastern medicine knowledge. She is an asset to the field and should you choose to work with her you certainly will be in capable hands.

After a year of trying and frustration, thanks to East Winds Acupuncture, we are expecting our first! Dr. Diane has made me more aware and in tune with my body and I cant say enough good things about this place! My husband and I are lifelong customers!

Diane is amazing at what she does. Ive been seeing her for over a year now and am very impressed with her knowledge and the way she really takes care of you and gives you her all. She is my favorite acupuncturist!

I had a wonder experience today at East Winds with Stephanie. I am in town for an embryo transfer, and they made me feel right at home. During my acupuncture session, everything was explained to me and I feel extremely comfortable, safe, and relaxed.

I recently developed some pretty severe abdominal pain that doctors weren’t able to diagnose. I went to a chiropractor and was referred to east winds. This has been the only thing to offer me any kind of relief. I couldnt believe that by putting a few needles in my arm she was able to take away some of the pain in my abdomen. I have another appointment already booked and I’m looking forward to how future sessions go!

Amazing experience! Diane is very kind and thorough. She helped my pain drastically!

Diane is not only a fantastic practitioner and researcher, but an amazing woman overall. Any patient of hers is in for a very special treat!

I love this place!!! Best decision I ever made when my IVF Doctor referred me.. I see Stephanie and she goes above and beyond to take care of me and my medical needs!!! Yayyy i feel so so much better 100% I recommend this place to everyone.
