New patient here, with much thanks for pain relief of an acute muscle problem. I've used acupuncture in the past for low back pain, but this was a new more challenging problem. Very thankful for the kind, caring and professional treatment I received from Dr. Dierauf over two weeks and four sessions. I've never had cupping or guasha (scraping) which definitly helped with pain relieve. Highly recommend. Linda J

I owe Benjamin a debt of gratitude. Recently I had an extremely painful episode of sciatica, and was referred to him by a friend. After my fourth visit I was completely free of pain. Benjamin is not only an extremely knowledgeable and experienced acupuncturist, he is compassionate, with a warm, calm demeanor. I have no hesitation in recommending him.
