I cannot say enough good things about taking classes with Adrienne Irizarry at Moon Essence! Most recently, I took her perimenopause class to learn about hormonal, emotional and physical changes that I can look forward to as I head toward menopause. At 40 I have already started to experience some of the symptoms she discussed and it was such a relief to know I wasn't going crazy or imagining things. She has such a gentle and yet educational way of identifying symptoms and gives concrete steps forward on how to combat or make the most of the next season of life. I found it incredibly informative with regards to the types of foods I should be eating and the types of activities I should be participating in during different stages of my cycle to set myself up for success as I move toward menopause. Knowing I have a care provider like Adrienne in my corner makes me much more at ease looking at the changes in store for me. I highly recommend this course to any woman approaching this next stage of life

Adrienne is thoughtfully considerate and confidently articulate with her instruction. Her depth of knowledge, practical experience, ability to convey the information verbally as well as practically are thorough. Not only is she able to field questions at will but has made herself available for follow up inquiries when needed. I left the class feeling confident that I could put my tuning forks to work with family and friends and myself immediately. Adrienne is a caring and charismatic instructor, truly seeking to help optimize the health of individuals all around the world. Her exuberance for this work is contagious and I feel joyful to experience this with her!

I received a brief Acotonics treatment with Adrienne at a wellness event. As a body worker, I was buzzed by the experience. The intro class - I attended by Zoom - gave me a lot to work with. Adrienne is a warm and insightful guide to Acutonics, sharing the philosophy behind the tuning fork healing technology and presenting a comprehensive ‘first aid kit’ of applications. (I loved her fabulous fingernail polish that made it super easy to follow her online demonstrations.) The tuning forks that come with the program are not toys: they are finely balanced, solid instruments that have a lovely heft and ring. I look forward to learning more.

I’m so grateful for Adrienne, she has helped me be essentially PMS symptom free and started me on a journey of accepting myself and learning to care for myself as a women. I’m 44 years old and am just learning how to understand my cycle and what changes happen consistently each month and how to care for myself through all of it. I have experienced miscarriages, emotional monthly bleeds, not knowing when my period would come and Adrienne has really helped me to embrace/accept all these things as well as guiding me into changing for the better through steaming and herbs. I feel a freedom in myself from steaming regularly and it’s like it opened up this part of me that can be loving and curious to my female anatomy and the feelings that go along with this. I am super grateful for Adrienne and the work that she does, she really takes the time and cares about each client-true blessing! Thank you so much💗

My 4 year old daughter (newly diagnosed with ADHD, and sensory challenges) and I both had an acutonics session with Adrienne. My daughter was very hesitant, and despite having her watch me go first, still didn’t want Adrienne to touch her with the forks. Adrienne was so kind, understanding, and gentle with her and without skipping a beat she switched gears to accommodated her. The session was incredible, for both of us! I don’t understand how, but whatever crazy awesome hocus pocus things she did, it worked! Really well! My daughter walked into the office wild, basically vibrating, and unable to control her body. She walked out calmly, in control, and focused. It was like a light switch, I was truly impressed! I was exhausted, emotional, short tempered, and my body hurt everywhere. In what felt like 10 minutes I was incredibly relaxed, regulated, and the headache that was right on the edge of ruining my day was gone. I felt like I could sleep for a week. It was one of the coolest experiences I’ve had, and I’m so grateful for Adrienne for helping us. We will absolutely be back for more!

I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder several years ago and quickly started seeing a variety of health practitioners to help me find the right treatment and manage symptoms. My nutritionist had recommended that I look into pelvic steaming for some other issues I was dealing with, and I am so grateful to have Adrienne for additional support. We have been working together for a year now and I have learned so much about why my body acts the way it does and what actions should be taken to make sure it works at an optimal level. Adrienne is a wealth of information and everything we do aligns perfectly with what my my other practitioners want for me. She genuinely cares about each and every one of her clients and is constantly improving upon to the services she provides to make sure we get the best care possible. If you are struggling with any aspect of your health, I highly recommend you book a consult as soon as possible (she does do virtual appointments). Steaming may seem strange at first, but she makes it so easy and if you give it time you will see the benefits. My only regret is that I met Adrienne in my 40s instead of my 20s or 30s!

Working with Adrienne has been a game changer for me in so many ways. I have seen a major transformation in my health and wellness in a short period of time. I started the journey for improved menstral care and while I have learned so much about my cycle, I have also learned so much more as well. Adrienne taught me many principles of Chinese medicine that resonated with my health journey, gave me tangible action steps and resources, and supported me every step of the way. Prior to working with Adrienne I had been to a variety of practitioners—western, functional medicine, etc and I could not find answers to my health concerns. After 6 months of working with Adrienne, I have uncovered answers that I have been seeking for years. Adrienne’s approach is practical and supportive. She really listens and empowers you to make your own choices with the information that she provides. The steaming protocol was beneficial not only in supporting the aforementioned health journey but also providing a space for relaxation and meditation. I whole-heartedly recommend working with Adrienne if you are ready to make lasting change in your own journey.

Adrienne is a beautiful fountain of knowledge. Every time we speak I learn something incredibly valuable. She has completely immersed herself in her scope of practice and is extremely passionate about her work. On top of that, she sincerely cares about each women she works with. Adrienne is determined to heal you and genuinely celebrates you every time you do. I have never felt so heard from a health practitioner. Thank you for seeing and hearing us, Adrienne!

Adrienne is incredibly knowledgeable as well as compassionate. I have PCOS, and steaming with Moon Essence helped me to get pregnant quickly! My OBGYN had always told me that getting pregnant would be more difficult for me. But steaming completely changed this. It regulated my cycles and alleviated PMS symptoms. Every woman should make an appointment here! Moon Essence will help you take control of your reproductive health.

I came to Adrienne feeling completely defeated and depleted. She took me under her wing and treated me as a dear friend. While working with Adrienne, I went from an absent cycle and wanting to conceive, to a regulated cycle and eventually conceiving. I'm sitting here writing this, with our little miracle in my arms. I'm in awe and amazed everyday at what can be achieved through true healing work. What Adrienne offers is transformative, life altering, at times challenging, but indescribably worth it. She treats you like her close friend or sister. She's a wealth of knowledge and warmth. She is a forever human, I am grateful to have in my circle.
