I suffered injury from a acupuncture method at this office. Muscular tissue inflammation and nerve damage. I've been rehabbing almost every day for two years. Seek other remedy for your ailment, wish I had because it just made it worse going here. Dont rush to doing acupuncture, there are other methods less invasive and better. I did contact Mr. Vedler about it and he didnt offer me any incentive or refund, he actually had me go back and pay him more to no evail did it help. He put me on his easton method electric needle machine for like 20 minutes at a very high voltage. He even completely left

Chris is a great guy and and an amazing practitioner of oriental medicine. He's the guy I go to for needle, cupping, and other stuff. I always get the feeling that he's interested and fully invested in each one, and each part of our sessions together, and his work has been as good or better than any of the previous experiences I've had with this modality. I have gone to him for back, neck, and carpal tunnel issues and he has been a great help, and has also been willing to experiment in his work to further customized our sessions to my needs. I highly recommend him to anyone, especially

I have been in practice for 12 years and this is the first one star review I have ever seen. I take pride in the work I do and the risks of acupuncture to cause serious injury are negligible. I have no record of a "Mr. Myles" being a patient in my clinic. If an injury occurred due to my services I would do everything possible to make it right and encourage "Mr. Myles" to contact me to discuss what happened.

I have had some pretty good results with acupuncture. This alternative treatment has helped some of my muscles in my back to relax. I can't say that I am a fan of needles - but I have had some positive results. Sometimes I will have acupuncture instead of a massage. He also does some 'hot cupping' techniques and electrical stimulation with needles that will get your Chi MOVIN'!!
