“I had 9/10 cervical neck pain that led to severe scapular and trapezius tightness and pain. I was miserable. I went to Pleasant Wellness for acupuncture, and Julia started with a pointed and impactful physical assessment. She prepared me for treatment by palpating the areas, scanning for visual imbalances, and cupping my chest and my back. She identified upper body/back weakness, muscular imbalances from carrying my 45lb child on the same side all the time, and misalignment in my cervical spine. She was able to realign it by releasing the fascia and associated tension. **I left the clinic feeling euphoric from the lack of pain!** Julia is the utmost professional, and she has impeccable intuition and knowledge of the interrelated body systems. She educated me on the root of my issue so I can rehabilitate; and I see acupuncture as a crucial component of my care. I recommend Pleasant Wellness to anyone close by and will not look elsewhere for acupuncture.
Side note, I also went to Pleasant Wellness when I was pregnant and 8 days past my due date. I had my son the next day :)“
“I'm so pleased with my overall experience with Mark at Five Points!
He was very professional and knowledgeable, and made sure I was comfortable all the way through the process of my visit. If you are looking for a great acupuncturist, look no further as you have come to right place.“
“Zach has been amazing. I went to Zach for lower back pain after pregnancy and after about 10 sessions he pretty much cured me. I have not had any pain since. I am currently in treatment with him and already feeling better after a few sessions. Over the years I have recommended him to many.“
“Aaaaaaahhhhhh sweet relief, increased range of motion, free from pain, increased energy, sleep full nights, all the components to a joy full life....Thank you Min for your instincts and skill in relieving my chronic neck pain and for your kindness. Thank you Carol Ann and T for easy scheduling and care taking. Acupuncture and Wellness Clinic , a true Fountain of Youth.“
“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!“
“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.“
“First time acupuncture experience! And my experience has been nothing short of amazing and transformative. I found myself at Collective Healing in search of relief from a muscle ailment due to sports. Not only was I able to find complete relief, but I have found added benefits through treating anxiety. I highly recommend anyone to try Collective Healing.“
“I have had the pleasure of receiving treatment from Ariel Stimson multiple times for my hip and knee pain, and I cannot speak highly enough of her skills and professionalism. Each session with Ariel has been a wonderful experience. She is not only an incredibly knowledgeable and talented acupuncturist, but she also takes the time to understand my specific needs and concerns.
From the very first visit, Ariel made me feel comfortable and at ease. Her calm and compassionate demeanor, combined with her expertise, has consistently resulted in significant improvements in my pain levels. Ariel’s treatments have provided me with relief and improved my overall well-being.
I highly recommend Ariel Stimson to anyone seeking effective and caring acupuncture treatment. She is truly an amazing practitioner who has made a positive impact on my health. Thank you, Ariel, for your dedication and excellent care!“
“I have been a client of Cynthia for many years! She is amazing! I just experienced Cozy Feet 100min package and all I can say it was AWESOME! So relaxing and healing! I highly recommend it. It is a truly AMAZING EXPERIENCE!“
“Jay Guanci is absolutely amazing. I’ve been suffering with chronic pain and severe tennis elbow for about four years and nothing I did worked. I tried physical therapy. I’ve seen a chiropractor. I even got a Cortizone injection, but it wasn’t until I went to Jay’s office and got my first acupuncture treatment that I saw any results. I began dry needling because I read that would be most helpful for my condition and let me tell you after my third session I’ve noticed no pain!!!! Not only is Jay a ray of sunshine and extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and professional his office is also warm and inviting. I look forward to each appointment I have. If you are interested in Acupuncture please go to Jay he’s the best around!“
“I went to see Tamie for chronic constipation ans GI issues. Right away, Tamie had me tested for the H Pilori bacteria, and she wanted to check my hormonal level, cardiovascular markers…Well she was right, I had the bacteria and she gave me a specific regimen to treat it. We discussed the results of my other tests as well and I am working in balancing everything. I feel so good now, I sleep better, my energy is great.Tamie was efficient, no nonsense, great listener, knowledgeable et very very supportive!Thank you Tamie for your help and continuous support.“
“I got acupuncture with Jose to supplement my IVF treatment in April 2023. I started the treatment in early April and had my egg retrieval by the end of May. I started to see Jose after 4 failed IVF cycles from which we had zero PGT normal embryos. After the treatment with him, I had 24 eggs retrieved and we ended up with 2 PGT normal embryos from that cycle. In my previous cycles, I used to have around 18-20 eggs on the day of the stimulation. But never many of them made it to the retrieval day. In the previous 4 cycles, they retrieved 11, 4, 16, and 9 eggs respectively and we never had a normal embryo from those cycles. From those 4 cycles, we sent 4 embryos in total for PGT (1 embryo per cycle) and none of them were normal. After the acupuncture treatment with Jose, 24 eggs made it to the retrieval day, we got 4 embryos, and 2 of them were PGT normal. Jose’s treatment did wonders for me. We were shocked about this result. We are so grateful to him! His holistic approach kept me relaxed, positive, and excited for good results, and obviously helped the eggs to develop evenly at a similar pace, which is very important. We can’t thank him enough! Initially, my husband was very skeptical about acupuncture and generally about non-Western treatment options. But he is now so grateful that I insisted that we invest in acupuncture too. Your doctor too might be skeptical about acupuncture. However, a standard IVF treatment alone works rarely for many women.
Also, before Jose, I tried two acupuncturists for a few sessions. Because I didn’t feel much difference, I dropped it. However, after one session with Jose, I saw a big difference physically and mentally.“
“Hugh Turcotte has set me up on the road to recovery only after 1 acupuncture appointment. Dealing with a herniated C6 & C7 disc, with the C7 being in close proximity too my nerve root, I deal with constant migraines, swooshyness/dizziness feeling when I move my neck in any direction. Upper back constantly cracking and is extremely tight, my chiropractor said he couldn’t even do anything for me bc it was so tight. After my first appointment with Hugh, I haven’t felt that good in YEARS. I am so excited too see what else he can do for me with my future appointments. Hugh is beyond wise and knowledgeable on the human body & extremely patient when explaining everything that he is doing. Come too Waterfield Wellness and you won’t regret it!“
“This place is a gem. I’ve been treated by Andrew.
Effective - Andrew has real skill and intuition, and like good practitioners can lift up your health in addition to treating disease.
Efficient - this feels like a clinic in Taiwan, no private rooms, no waiting around, no upcharging. The quality of care is identical to so called 1on1 clinics, but beware you may be discussing private medical details in front of others.
Welcoming - affordable, and easy to book and cancel. Generous 3 hour cancellation window but full fee if you no show. Easy parking.
Cons - no unlimited option for those of us who like a week or two of continuous care.
I hope more American medical practices of all stripes can adopt a similar model.“
“I've received acupuncture from Steffi for many years and absolutely love visiting her and her practice. Even if I'm feeling no aches, pains or tight muscles it's such a relaxing experience and I leave feeling so much better. It has been great to get accupuncture during my pregnancy. Highly recommend Steffi and her services!“
“Annjoné Goodridge is AMAZING! She has helped me so much with my insomnia, chronic migraines and GI problems. She has now left the practice so I cannot speak for the rest of the practitioners. I believe she is at Simple Good Acupuncture now. The one thing about Tai Chi is that it's very costly, however, I think they have a member program / deal that could be worth looking into. Clean space and friendly staff.“
“I've been a patient of Lisa's for 20 years. She always provides excellent treatment and care, from helping me overcome a cat allergy to addressing various muscle strains to treatment for seasonal allergies. I am so grateful for her.“
“I have been getting acupuncture in the past few years. I was extremely happy to meet Heidrun. Heidrun is amazing and she has a talent to find right spots and help with the condition(s) you may have. Heidrun provides safe and effective treatment(s). After her visits you always feel relaxed and rejuvenated! Always looking forward to my upcoming visits.“
“Ancient Path offers superior care in many areas. Their acupuncture treatments are excellent and have helped me greatly over the years with chronic digestive problems, stress, circulation, and healing from injuries. The nutritional advice and herbal medicines they offer are also excellent, including both Chinese herbs and high-quality natural supplements from companies including Standard Process. They provide caring and thoughtful advice on how to be holistically healthy, and I cannot recommend them enough.“
“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.“
“A few weeks ago, I had one of the worst headaches of my life. It is not unusual for me to have migraines, but normally my prescription medication will work to help alleviate the pain. That time it didn't! I was in excruciating pain - so much pain that it caused me to throw up. I didn't feel better after throwing up and was ready to go to the ER but couldn't stand the thought of having to sit in a waiting room. Instead, I called Dr. Amato and my husband drove me to see her. When I first got there, I threw up again, but still felt horrible afterwards. Dr. Amato felt around for which bones were out of alignment then she adjusted me. I immediately started to feel better after being adjusted. My husband couldn't believe it! It was truly amazing how fast the pain went away. It was about 85-90% gone minutes after the adjustment then 100% gone within the hour. I would highly recommend Dr. Amato for treatment of headaches, reoccurring ear infections, and more. Thank you Dr. Amato!?“
“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.“
“I was a complete skeptic when it came to acupuncture and had a fear of needles. Dr. Zhang changed that. It was incredible that with just a few treatments my sciatica was cured. After months of not being able to sleep without pain, I was finally able to sleep through the night.“
“I am so grateful to the Doctors of Wellcare Chiropractic for the expert care I received when I was in severe muscle spasm recently. Even after my first visit I had significant pain relief. The entire staff is warm and welcoming and I cannot say enough about these amazing people.“
