“When it comes to "firsts" there can be hesitancey when trying something new, that hesitance is easily dispelled here at Chesapeake AIM.When you live with pain you don't realize how accustomed to it you are, this was my case for five years with lower back tension/lockups and flare ups. "Muscling through" was no longer working and I opted to seek out accupuncture as a means of help.The folks here are exceptionally inviting, warm, caring and make it clear you're not only in an atmosphere to heal but an atmosphere that is glad to have you. Assisting with any concerns, listening and understanding your specific ailment as best as they can? In my case, it eased what little concerns I had immediately. As wordy as I am I fail to find words enough to describe how outstanding these individuals are.For the first time in five years I experienced what it was like to not have pain. My experience and time here could not have been better served. I'm very grateful for Dr. Smithmyer, Jinell, who displays an acute mastery of her work. The time it takes medical professionals to hone their skills, their craft and talents is staggering and we are fortunate to be on the receiving end of someone who displays a deep love for her field and compassion for those that seek her aid.I thank them all for their time and their help in a way I cannot begin to express, thank you!“
“I am so grateful for Jessica Faulkner’s help and support in improving my high cholesterol. I had my reservations about going on a statin which my primary care doctor recommended. Jess listened and came up with a treatment plan with acupuncture and Chinese herbs, together with improved diet and exercise. In 3 months my cholesterol went from being in the high range to the normal range. While my treatment wasn’t covered by insurance, I believe the long term benefits far outweigh the cost. I feel like a new person. I truly believe in this approach to achieve wellness. Thank you Jess! Lindy M“
“I can’t say enough about VWC! When I first started therapy, I was struggling with a torn meniscus and a fracture in my right knee. Walking was an issue.

Thank you VWC!“

She also has an incredibly intuitive sense about treatment. I feel listened to and validated. Second THE RESULTS are amazing. After hitting a wall with a lot of western medicine options to my issues, Dr. Lexi has been able to treat and get results that are significant. Finally, the clinic itself is amazing. Between Valerie the office manager and Dr. Lexi, they are always able to get me in and seen, even when I have an urgent issue, they find a way to see me. It has been such a blessing to find KMA and Dr. Lexi.“

“I went to Annapolis Acupuncture & Integrative Healing on a recommendation from a relative. I called Kim a bit skeptical but with an open mind and my experience so far has been amazing. Becoming a client and setting up my first appointment was extremely easy. Kim is flexible and accommodating in scheduling and rescheduling appointments. I had constant sciatic nerve pain for almost a year, severe and constant pain around the the first joint of my right thumb for about 3 years, stabbing and intense nerve pains in my left arm as a result of a 1996 industrial accident. I also suffered from stress related issues and trouble sleeping most nights for most of my life. After just 4 treatments with Kim she has me 100% free of any and all sciatic nerve and thumb pain and no more shooting pains in my left arm. I have been seeing Kim regularly for two months now and I am more relaxed and focused than I have ever been and sleeping 8 hours a night almost every night. She is also successfully treating me for several issues that I would never associate with acupuncture. I have found Kim to be very pleasant, professional and extremely knowledgable of her profession, not only with acupuncture but with diet and lifestyle issues as well. As a bonus, Annapolis Acupuncture and Integrative Healing accepts my health insurance. I have, and will continue, to highly recommend Annapolis Acupuncture & Integrative Healing.“
“I have nothing to say about this place, except it’s amazing. My pain after acupuncture here is fantastically reduced. My practitioner so knowledgeable. Highly recommend to anyone with pain.“
