Prior to my first visit with Alison, I had been experiencing pain in my right shoulder for seven months. I had seen my family physician and several specialists. None of them had been able to help me. When I arrived for my first treatment, I was in constant pain, could not move my right arm and was not sleeping because the pain was so severe. After my first treatment, I got some relief from my pain and was able to get a full night's sleep. After each subsequent treatment, I had less pain and was able to move my right arm more fully. I now have no pain in my right shoulder and have full movement in my right arm. Alison also gave me some common sense advice to help relieve my problems with carpal tunnel syndrome.

I was referred to Alison by my Chiropractor and Massage Therapist because I had sharp pain in my neck and upper back.  I called Alison and she made room for me the next day.  The first treatment helped quite a bit and overall I felt very relaxed.  My second treatment was amazing, about halfway through I could feel my back unlocking in steps, it was unbelievable!  When I left her building I had no trouble turning to see if there was traffic coming up behind me, something very uncomfortable before that treatment.  I am very satisfied with her help and I have recommended her to others.

At first I was very hesitant about trying acupuncture. Physical therapy offered some relief but it wasn’t until I tried acupuncture that the pain and discomfort began to subside significantly. Alison is a very knowledgeable practitioner. She is soft spoken, focused, and skilled. I am very grateful to her for all her help.

Thanks to Alison and her skills in acupuncture, I am able to do everyday activities like going to work, grocery store, or even a friend’s house. I tried medications before acupuncture but the side effects were sometimes worse. This is a great all natural way to feel healthy. Alison makes me feel comfortable and relaxed every visit. She is also informative about how acupuncture works.

I think acupuncture is truly amazing. I was in a state of mental confusion due to menopause. It was a battle for me to organize my thoughts. It was difficult for me to do my job and function. I sat in Alison's office in tears, desperate for help. After one treatment I felt a tremendous difference. I could function again! After a few back to back treatments once a week, I am now on a scedule that keeps me going in a very positive state of mind. Thank you Alison!

My primary reason for seeking acupuncture treatments from Alison over a year ago was for worsening PMS symptoms. The couple of days of physical discomfort and mood changes that I used to have began lasting for a couple of weeks, consuming half my life! My OB/GYN suggested birth control pills or antidepressants. Not wanting to go that route, at a nurse practitioner’s recommendation, I consulted Alison to explore a non-pharmaceutical approach. Seeing her has dramatically improved not only the quality of my life, but that of my husband and two young children as well. My PMS symptoms are either gone or are so minor that they are hardly an inconvenience at all, with only one relaxing monthly visit to Alison. She has also treated a previous neck injury that often caused chronic, debilitating pain. With acupuncture, Alison has gotten me to a point where I am almost pain free. It if does flare-up, a visit with Alison puts me back to comfort quickly and easily. When I recently developed hip pain, Alison was able to rid me of the pain in a couple of visits. Alison is always very professional, punctual, and strives to accommodate scheduling. She is a genuine, caring, a good listener, and communicator. I would recommend her to anyone! A true healer...

For several years I experienced chronic fatigue, which worsened after having my two children. My doctor couldn’t find anything medically wrong with me, so I was referred to Alison. I noticed an immediate difference after my first treatment. The general fatigue and malaise started to lift and I actually had energy. Since that first treatment over a year ago, I have continued to see Alison on a regular basis. Alison has continued to help me with my chronic fatigue and support my general health and well being. Alison always listens and addresses what is currently going on with me. She is always professional and pleasant and I highly recommend her services.

Before beginning treatments with Alison I had suffered for years with numerous health problems including asthma, back pain, stress, and more recently infertility. Alison’s treatments have targeted each of these issues and I have received tremendous improvements. My asthma is under control, my back pain is improved, I am calmer and more relaxed throughout the day, and expecting a baby in August! I have recommended Alison to my friends and family because I truly believe her treatments have added to my quality of life.
