“This review is a year late (due to an IVF and pregnancy journey where my acupuncture support needed to be paused) and it’s been burning a hole in my psyche given how deserved and needed it is. I don’t say this lightly, but Ted is a healer in every sense of the word and is the most gifted, skilled, knowledgeable and compassionate practitioner and person there is. I came to Ted with severe chronic health issues a’la Long COVID, and Ted was the catalyst for most of my symptoms relaxing and healing over time, inclusive of the daily migraines I was experiencing, multiple times per day, and my GI and liver issues that I had assumed were untreatable via failures in western medicine that I experienced for years.
The style of acupuncture Ted practices is what drew me to him (after attempting other forms of acupuncture without success), and his holistic approach to the treatment - inclusive of Qi Gong, diet, and so much more - have been so incredibly supportive alongside the treatments themselves.
Ted is truly the best it gets and lives and breathes his art and the science and practice of the art. I am always so hesitant to use the word “healer” as it’s used so flippantly these days, but Ted IS a healer and he’s one that I owe my returned health to.
To say he’s the best in the North Shore is a gross understatement: in my humble opinion he’s the best in the region and I pray he continues practicing for more years to come, as so many lives can be made more livable and supported by his genius and gift.“
“Had my first appointment today and dr pulley was very thorough. I asked any and many questions and she was there to answer them! Feeling good and pretty optimistic after my first visit. Looking forward to coming back. Speaking of coming back they were very accommodating with my work schedules I couldn’t be more thankful, looking forward to continuing treatment!“
“I would highly recommend Cornerstone Acupuncture! I started a few weeks ago and the issues that I have for which I sought treatment are improving immensely. Christine is so knowledgeable and truly listens to her patients. I can’t recommend her enough.“
“Phenomenal experience. I've had a neurological problem causing dizziness and balance issues for almost a year that no one could figure out including doctors in Boston. I decided to try acupuncture. The doctor did a thorough evaluation before deciding if he could help. I took the treatment for half an hour and got immediate results. Barely able to walk in with the use of a cane and walked out under my own power. Highly recommend.“
“I am a regular patient here and I am so glad they exist. Someone had given me a gift certificate to try acupuncture for my health issues. Years later and I still choose to go here. A lot has cleared up over the years and new stresses of life get introduced but I always feel relaxed and refreshed after a session here. The staff is very kind and helpful. Also I am afraid of needles (which is why I was confused that someone got me a gift certificate to this) but these needles are nothing. If I can handle them, anyone can.“
“I actively go to Yvonne & Heiu. They have changed my life for the better. I receive treatment for seasonal allergies, grief, relaxation, weight loss, food allergies, and more. I can say with confidence I no longer have seasonal allergies. My grieving has become more manageable. I nap during every session and wake up feeling amazing. I have food allergies to all raw veggies and fruits. I recently tried a strawberry and had no negative reaction. I highly recommend their office for accupuncture treatments! They are so amazing, not to mention they are some of the friendliest people I have ever met!“
“Julie does fantastic work. She applies thoughtful attention and true quality in her practice. She is a shining example of how provider care should be.“
“I recently became a Tai Chi Acupuncture client in North Reading with Dr. Michelle. If someone had told me the difference it would make in my quality of life I would never have believed them. I suffer from a progressive degenerative demylating disease similar to MS. I woke up every day to debilitating spasms and pain that I had decided I would just have to learn to live with. After my first visit I woke up the next to no pain! It was gone! It felt like a miracle.I love how Dr. Michelle explains what she does and why. She even let me borrow a book on Acupuncture to read. The staff is amazing working to schedule appointments around a crazy work schedule and numerous doctors appointments.Tai Chi is an amazing place. I strongly recommend you try it out.“
“this is the most gifted acupuncturist .you will never regret being treated by this woman.“
“From frozen shoulder to a full range of motion in a matter of WEEKS!! Acupuncturist Vivien from Chinese Healing Art came highly recommended, so I decided to give it a try and set up my first ever acupuncture appointment. I am so grateful I did! Vivien is very knowledgeable about her practice.As of my first visit, I could barely lift my arm to a 45-degree angle due to a long-lasting frozen shoulder. By seeing Vivien regularly over the past several weeks, I'm am now back to a full range of motion! Highly recommend.“
“They offer alternatives to those who wish to improve their quality of life without the dependency of medications or wish to try other solutions of therapy to help reduce. Bowen therapy is effective. Acupuncture is revitalizing. Who doesn't love a message? Yoga for stretching those tight backs and hips and so much more!“
“I've gone there a few times now & I would highly recommend them. Great, friendly, personable & highly knowledgeable.“
“Off-Season has helped me reach my full potential and continue my dream of being a college lightweight rower. I sustained a devastating spinal injury in 2021 where two doctors told me I would never row again. However the team over at Off-Season helped me to prove them wrong with a tailored plan to not only accelerate my recovery, but heal my injury fully. I am now able to compete at the college rowing level even when my recruiting was thrown off with my injury. Whether it was specialized stretching, dry needling, graston, stability and core exercising, I still use what I have learned to continue to help my body heal and compete. Thank you to Larry and staff at Off-Season Sports & Physical Therapy for helping me to achieve my athletic goals!“
“Spencer is extremely knowledgeable and has many tools that he utilizes to help clients.“
“Saw Melanie twice - two years ago to help induce labor to avoid a medical induction and more recently to help flip a breech baby. I feel so strongly that working with Melanie was very helpful both times and highly recommend her to any soon to be mamas looking for help in their pregnancy!“
“Does anyone know where the previous owners, John and Angela are? I think they sold the place back to its original owner 10yrs ago. I moved and didn’t go for a couple months. and when I went back I was told they sold it back the week before. Any info on where John and Angela are now would be great. John gave the BEST foot reflexology and massages. I haven’t been able to find anyone since that compares. Thanks in advance!!!“
“Excellent doctor, I recommend him, I love him, he is very professional and my pain has decreased a lot, his secretaries are also very friendly, excellent team.“
