What people say about my services…
“Al is so great at what they do. I was new to acupuncture a few months ago, and since seeing Al, the tension in my neck and shoulders has decreased significantly allowing me to sleep and breathe easier. They are a welcoming, calm and trusted presence that has insights into the root source of my body pain and acne. I really enjoy my visits and recommend them to anyone seeking relief and attunement.” — M.H.
“I’ve been seeing Al for acupuncture and cupping to relieve chronic pain related to a running /hamstring injury/overdoing it at weightlifting classes/bad posture at my desk. My only regret is that I didn’t start services sooner. Al is wonderfully calm, attentive, and a great listener, treating short and long term issues with planning and true care. I leave every treatment emotionally and physically balanced, lighter, and in less pain.”
— S.M.
“I had never had any sort of acupuncture or dry needling treatment prior to seeing Al, and they have converted me completely. They are such a kind, caring practitioner. I look forward to my appointments for both the relief and knowing I get to chat with a kind and cool person. I have a neck and shoulder injury from a car accident that left me with excruciating pain flare ups caused from 2 bulged discs. Since seeing Al, I haven’t had a flare up which has honestly changed my quality of life completely. I was a bit squeamish of needles admittedly, so my first treatment stood out to me the most because of the care Al puts into building an rapport/trust with you, and ensuring you are comfortable above all else. I am so grateful someone recommended them to me because of how much relief their treatments have brought to my life.” -D.K.
