Polly Savoie Christy, LAC

Acupuncture is like champagne bubbles going through my body.
Thank you Polly Christy!

I have suffered with chronic (sometimes severe) progressive back pain due to scoliosis and arthritis induced spondolythosis for many years. I recently experienced crippling sciatic pain x 3 weeks with no relief from medications, which sent me to try acupuncture with Polly. After the first treatment severe, acute pain was gone and the chronic aching pain improved. I can’t say how grateful I am to have found Polly.

Polly is a very knowledgeable and attentive practitioner. She has helped me after I went to no less than a half dozen others and I always come back when my body is in need of repair. She’s like that mechanic from old times who can listen to an engine and diagnose and fix the problem. Highly recommend.

The best acupuncturist and healer in Charleston. Highly recommend. Polly will not disappoint!

I have struggled with anxiety and depression for years and have tried every method under the sun. The treatment given by Polly put me into a meditative state that left me feeling as if my mind, body and spirit had taken a large dose of Xanax. Polly is a gem and I am so grateful to have found her practice.

Professional; genuine interest in understanding the individual’s needs; a calming respite from the busy-ness of daily life!

Low Back hurt so bad it was hard to walk. Polly got me in and some some massage and needling I felt 100 times better. I’m beyond the handful for her!

Polly has A true gift to tap in spiritually and energetically with love and grace. She has made a difference in my life.

Polly is truly the best at what she does. Each time I’ve visited has been an unforgettable experience where I leave feeling healed. Can’t recommend enough.

This woman is my personal magician. I first came with chemo related peripheral neuropathy. She took me from pain to back walking like I used to. She keep me tuned.

I have an open mind and now I have an open heart! I am so glad I took a leap of faith and tried something new to help me find strength and peace to finally overcome years of hurt after suffering from family trauma. Polly welcomed me with love and grace and her understanding of what’s going on inside me is astounding. Western medicine has a long way to go to catch up to the ancient Eastern practices! Polly is truly a healer.

There aren't enough stars for me to properly rate my experience with Polly! This is therapy for mind, body and soul. I always leave Tides feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, cleansed and seen. She is a true gem and healer.

When you combine expert knowledge, 25 yrs of clinical practice, and the art of healing, magical things can happen.

A clinical psychologist recommended Polly to help facilitate releasing accumulated rage/anger that resulted from years of dealing with narcissistic abuse. Just after 3-4 treatments, I felt significantly more hopeful, more fluid; lighter, laughing more and sleeping better. I am now a firm believer in the benefits of acupuncture and Polly’s abilities as a true healer. Acupuncture has been a game changer!

I have a problematic diagnosis and frequently have to visit a doctor. That said, I have had issues with my back, shoulders, brain fog etc. I was referred to Polly and set up an appointment with some high expectations. When I met Polly and underwent the first few treatments, my shoulder pain and back pain improved so much that I was absolutely grateful to Polly for her explanation of what the problem is, how it can be attended to, and her overall skill and knowledge of Acupuncture, Cupping and medicinal herbs. She is a true healer. Thank you Polly for the effort that you have put into profession and thank you for your healing experience.

Polly is a very caring professional. I appreciate her knowledge and expertise and always leave feeling so much better.

I’ve been going to Polly for 12 years or so—every Tuesday for my weekly tune-up. I feel 20 years younger than my age and I attribute it to Polly’s healing. She is an amazing individual.

Polly has treated me for many years and I trust her implicitly. She is now treating my daughter as well - Today after treatment my usually morose tween walked out and told me, "I feel like a million bucks! " I'm pretty sure those words coming from a pre teen girl speak volumes on how effective and amazing her treatments can be!

I’ve been seeing Polly for acupuncture treatments for about 3 years and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. She is nothing short of a miracle worker. I leave each appointment feeling physically and emotionally lighter and recharged. Polly is kind, has such a calming presence and is a terrific listener. I highly recommend her and her work!

Polly has helped me so much. I am a professional violinist and had strained my tendons and was having trouble playing my violin. She truly helped me recover. I am so grateful to her and highly recommend.

I have been a client of Polly Christy for around 15 years and have also recommended her to family, friends and patients. I personally have studied complimentary medicine and acupuncture and have met a number of acupuncturists in my over 45 years of practice as a registered nurse. I immediately recognized that Polly is a master practitioner, possessing both the credentials as well as skills of the highest levels. Her pre- treatment assessments, evaluations then treatments are thorough and in line with the authentic and traditional master practice of acupuncture. She is highly professional, practicing with honesty and integrity and has been of the utmost value to many, including myself, husband and daughter. Polly Christy, in my opinion, based on much experience, is definitely one of the very best!

When someone first told me that sticking needles in my body would be helpful, I truly thought they were crazy! I am now a true believer. Polly has been treating me for about five years and she is the best. Polly treats body, mind, and soul. Always outstanding!

I have been treated by Polly for nearly ten years, and she is absolutely the best hour of self care I give myself each week. She is a caregiver in the truest sense, in that she listens to and cares deeply about her patients. She has a deep experiential understanding of her craft and is keenly able to personalize her approach to each person. Five stars is not enough.

I am so thankful for Polly! Her caring attentiveness and genuine engagement with patients creates a space to truly receive the benefits of these ancient healing practices. Polly is an educator and seamlessly weaves her wisdom into treatments. The rooms themselves are impeccably appointed to create an inviting, intriguing and accessible environment. I highly recommend a visit!

Polly is an amazingly empathetic and experienced healer. I searched all over Charleston for a great acupuncturist and finally found Polly 9 years ago! She is tirelessly dedicated to healing her patients.

I have struggled with back and neck tension/pain for most of my life, but especially after having children. I love massages and the chiropractor but find relief for only a couple of days. Polly’s combination treatment of cupping and accupuncture helps me for weeks. It also relieves stress and anxiety and leaves me feeling more balanced. Polly is such a kind and warm person. I highly recommend her!

Polly provides exceptional care to her patients. With over a 10 year history of treating myself and my young children, I could not recommend her more.

Best in town! Her personal care, knowledge, and wisdom are exceptional. She will care for your whole being; whether your issues are mental, emotional, or physical, Polly is the healer.

Ive been working with Polly for over 12 years though acupuncture and massage, it has truly been a life changing processs.

She is a Master at what she does and I can not recommend her enough. It's such a pleasure seeing her each time and I always look forward to going back.

Take the first step in improving your life and give her a call!

The best body-work experience I have ever had! Polly combines so many techniques to give a customized healing routine.it really felt designed just for me. I am currently in the midst of one of the most stressful times of my life and walking away from that treatment made me feel calm, grounded, and focused. Stomach aches I have been waking up with disappeared and I felt more physically balanced than I ever have. I would recommend her or any of her therapists at Tides!
