I would absolutely recommend Jim for anyone who’s experiencing pain, and I will say that the costs are 100% worth it and nothing compared to the relief of being pain free.

I have not been under a knife and don't plan to as long as I continue this type of therapy. Jim, "thank you" for your service.

I was almost ready to accept that I would continue living with my muscular dysfunction and pain forever, but I’m so glad I felt inspired to try James.

Persistent Pain Doesn't Have to Be Your Normal

Without effective trigger point therapy, muscle tension and pain can become chronic, limiting your mobility and quality of life.

"Jim made my first experience comfortables and personable. I don't like needles but after my first session I was looking forward to my weekly appointments. I had several acupuncture places to choose from but I lucked up with selecting Jim. I highly recommend his clinic."

"Jim helped me so much. As a nurse I'm on my feet non-stop. I've seen several orthopedic surgeons and doctors about my plantar fasciitis with just needles and steroids that lasted a short while and never fixed me. Jim was the first to tell me I had an issue with the ligaments in the side of my foot. He has made it possible to walk without constantly being in pain. My days are now not so hard to tolerate plus he showed me how to exercise and help my hips and lower back pain. Thank you Jim, you saved this old nurses life."

"I have done acupuncture for years and with multiple doctors and specialists. Jim was by far my favorite. We did a full exam prior to doing the treatment. Made me do different positions so he could fully understand where the pain was coming from and then also did stretches on my arms himself. He explained exactly where my knots were and how they were affecting me and why. After just one treatment I could feel a huge difference the following day. I was very sore because of how intense it was but could turn my head within 24 hours when I hadn't been able to do that in over a week. I have a chronic issue that has been going on for years and he has taken it away. He follows up your exam with a massage which greatly helped as well.
