I went to CJ Acupuncture after my long-time battle with thoracic and cervical spine/disc issues from an auto accident and a sports injury led to physical therapy with a steady diet of pain relievers for chronic back pain that regularly impacts my range of motion, mobility, and sleep. I was at a point where I was considering the recommended back surgery as a last resort when a good friend suggested trying acupuncture before following through on the surgery to see if it would help – after all, what would I have to lose?
During my first visit with CJ, we talked about my problems, he gave advice on how to improve some daily and sleeping habits that will help alleviate back/neck pain, and we talked about the treatment plan. Admittedly, I went into this with an open mind and just hoping for any relief from the pain I was having – the results from my first visit were simply amazing!
After experiencing daily back/neck pain for so long, it was as if a great weight had been lifted off me. THAT DAY, the constant pain I had when I arrived was gone – and trust me, I kept looking for it: turning my neck, raising my arm, twisting my body. No pain!
As I continue with the series of treatments, I restarted my exercise regiment while being mindful of movements that may aggravate those specific neck/back pain areas. I still experience mild to moderate soreness temporarily as I adjust my routine, but the constant pain is gone. Sleep is better, no daily pain relievers, and I still do the therapy movements; but this was truly life changing.
CJ is very knowledgeable and considerate, and he maintains a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere for the treatment sessions. If you are experiencing problems and you aren’t sure if acupuncture is for you, visit CJ, talk with him, and keep an open mind; see if this will help you...
Read moreI have a shoulder injury since March of 2024 and have been in constant pain. It is all day and all nite. Severely disrupting my sleep and sometimes so bad I became nauseous. Went to chiropractor multiple times, didnt really help. Decided to try accupunture and found CJ Accupunture online. He had so many 5 star reviews and many were with similar shoulder pain. Made appt and my wife went with me as she has severe hip pain. He treated both of us. I was a little skeptical towards end of the treatment as it still hurt with certain movements. CJ came in and did a few other things and when I stood up my pain was about 95% gone. UNBELIEVEABLE!!!! My wife says her hip is feeling much better too! Wish I found him many months ago, thought I would need surgery it felt so bad. HIGHLY recommend CJ Accupunture. He explains a lot and tells you how to do things differently to help you. I would give him 100 stars if that...
Read moreI was in a car accident that left me with a bulging disk in my upper back at C7-T1. For a year and a half I had dealt with chronic pain that physical therapy and epidural injections failed to treat (and actually made the pain worse after the first one). Looking for a more holistic approach I went to CJ and it was the best decision I have ever made! Along with the treatments, CJ's advice on how to keep my body in good positions has virtually eliminated my pain. I can't thank you enough CJ for giving my body back to me. My son, daughter and wife thank you as well for the shoulder rides and ability to interact with them that had been on hold for a while due to my incapacity. You truly are a...
