“I have been seeing Ryan and his associates at Marinwood Community Accupuncture for several years. It seems that whatever concern I have, acupuncture has given me a solution. I recently saw Ryan as I'd had new troubling symptoms present themselves. Since I have "disc issues," I was concerned about the feelings I was having in my right knee, hip and leg. I saw Ryan. We conversed. He applied acupuncture. Issue resolved. In my humble opinion, he is deeply knowledgable and highly skilled. AND....at a reasonable cost, he is my "Go To" Health Practitioner before seeking other help!“
“After 10+ years of low back pain initially from a work related injury, I decided to try a different approach and was referred to Dr Derik at the Muscle & Joint Clinic. Since going, I have a much better quality of life and significantly reduced pain. I feel like I am an active participant in the plan and really listened to. I am able to recover better from physical activity and since going, I have had few to no back spasms. A miracle!! I would recommend being mentally prepared by: 1) being patient, results really do take time 2) do your prescribed exercises!! It will only benefit you and facilitate the treatment plan 3) yes there is some pain/discomfort involved, but it is purposeful and leads to progress and 4) be committed because it is time consuming but worth it in the end. Promise!! I know my body better because of Dr. Derik & Company and could not be more pleased with my experience at the Muscle & Joint Clinic. Staff are wonderful, shoutout to Alex for his positivity and explaining things in a way that I can grasp & remember later. Side note: Easy to get on/off the freeway and parking is no problem.“
