Verve Wellness Studio — Local services in San Francisco

I first came to Verve in 2017. I wanted to connect to my truth. At the time I was completely run by external expectations. I felt wrong about everything. I spent 32 trying to fit. I had no idea there was another way. Verve showed me there was.

I thought the way to do things was to first create a plan, then execute the plan, then live happily ever after. Why wasn’t it working? I was trying SO hard. At Verve I learned that for me, taking a step, an imperfect start into the unknown allows for a plan to emerge. The plan may not include bullet points and spreadsheets but something always comes. The same cannot be said for sitting in isolation trying to map it all out, at least not for me. I learned that there’s more than one way to move through the world. I began to question the source of my ideas about the right way to do things. Whose values and voice was I upholding? Was it mine, my parent’s, Jesus’s, white supremacy’s, Bob’s, Suzzie’s?

Verve called bullshit on should. “This shouldn’t be happening…” I should be…” I believed it all so much until I got to Verve and began the process of unwinding all the messaging and getting to the truth. I’ve been in care with Aidan and Marisol consistently since 2018 because the work holds so much room for growth. I may come into the office focussed on a particular physical or emotional pain and as I move through it, another layer reveals itself. The depth and expanse of the work is boundless.

Serendipitous events and a glowing recommendation brought me to Verve. Before my initial appointment, I did my usual due diligence before embarking on a new endeavor. I googled network spinal analysis. My seven years ago self thought it looked hella weird, fake even. But I was committed to attending my appointment and figured that would be it. But then… Aidan and Marisol… Wow. They are real AND magic. They are tears, tantrums, emotions AND soul, inspiration and brilliance. They met me in a way I had never been met. I felt seen maybe for the first time ever.. It was disarming. I liked it and it scared me. I felt like I could be weird, ugly, and late and still belong. I didn’t need to change or go get something I didn’t already have to belong.

Verve, Marisol, and Aidan have absolutely changed my life. I care about embodying my authenticity instead of trying to fit. I need support on that path and they provide it. They hold me and they challenge me. Who they are and how they choose to move in the world soothes my soul and inspires me to live louder and shine brighter. Let this glowing recommendation get you in the door. The work, the people, and your desire to come alive will...

Have you ever felt helpless and exhausted due to chronic stress or other illnesses? Have you seen doctors and specialists one after another to be disappointed and start to believe that you have to live with your pain or illness for the rest of your life? That is how I felt until a month ago, before I was lucky to find Verve Wellness through a referral. For over 12 years, I had been treated by some of the most prominent doctors and specialists in the Bay Area, yet I was still twitching my jaw and pressuring my teeth 24/7. Furthermore due to extreme stress and tension that I was holding in my body, my face, neck and shoulders, I had compromised my overall health. I had constant headaches and had reached a point of helplessness. My jaw and brain were completely disconnected. As if I had no control over my own body. Finding Dr. Aidan is a gift sent to me from the above. Soon after starting my treatments the miracle I was waiting for happened. My jaw started to quiet down! I stopped pressuring my teeth. I was overwhelmed with joy and I also got scared! What if this was temporary? Then I heard Dr. Aidan’s comforting voice: “trust the process”, “just enjoy it”. A month later not only I am confidently enjoying the serenity and the quiet pleasure of not pressuring my teeth, I am marveled by many other unexpected areas of wellness I am experiencing. My energy is more, I have more mental alertness and focus, I am happier. Most importantly I no longer feel helpless. Once again, I am hopeful. My prayers have been answered. Dr. Aidan is an extraordinary doctor and healer. She has a unique and rare ability to view the “whole person”. She is an educator who cares to empower her patients. She is a visionary who invites her patients to re-claim their independence and live their lives free of pain and suffering. It is like magic! I could not write a review high enough to do justice to Dr. Aidan’s expertise, abilities and her genuine kindness. I am forever grateful to Dr. Aidan. My brain and jaw are in harmony now and I am “enjoying” the magical results all thanks to Dr. Aidan. I am also grateful to Marisol for her help, endless kindness, guidance, and support throughout the process, and for making me and all other patients feel so welcomed. Verve Wellness Studio has my highest recommendation and...

Where to begin! Maybe just by simply saying the experience I’ve had with Dr. Aidan at Verve has been absolutely magical and life changing. I was introduced to network care by a close friend who knew it would benefit me - I overcame feelings of scarcity and had an amazing first session and consultation!

I shortly after moved…. And while away revisited a lot of old patterns, I experienced a lot of compression and loss of direction… When praying for what to do I was shown Dr. Aidan’s face and would hear her voice.

5 months go by and when I visited San Francisco again in June I made an agreement with myself to have two non negotiable appointments -

WOW the shift was instant and very extreme! I suddenly felt new levels of safety in my body that I had never experienced before - old wounds and patterns began to melt away and I was experiencing life as a gift again!

On my third appointment that month Verve allowed me to roll over what was already paid into one of the monthly packages!!

I was called to visit as frequently as possible to catch my body up with my spirit. I thank God for Dr. Aidan and Marisol - and only about 30 entrainments in I feel completely unrecognizable from last year. My depression is gone, my body has more energy and mobility, my mind is clear and I’m more of a magnet to incredible opportunities.

Those two nonnegotiable appointments allowed me to find value in myself and my...
