Read what some our patients have to say about their experiences with acupuncture...

Migraines for 24 years

"I first started my acupuncture treatments with Bryan for chronic neck pain, which began to bother me about 10 years ago. He immediately realized that the neck pain was related to my migraines and assured me that he could help me out with both.

I have been suffering from these migraines for 24 years and nothing really seemed to help. I was being treated by chiropractors for 13 years as well as conventional doctors, but without any success in eliminating or even reducing
the migraines. In addition, I underwent dietary changes to treat them, also without success.
I knew that I couldn't continue relying on pain killers anymore in order to find relief. I have considered trying acupuncture in the past but
I never knew where to go to get the proper care.

Bryan began treating me for my neck pain and migraines and incredibly, it was by the third acupuncture treatment that I realized my migraines had disappeared! I couldn't believe that after 24 years, Bryan was able to completely rid me of this intolerable pain.
My neck pain had been relieved a short time after that as well. I am now on an acupuncture maintenance schedule to prevent any
re-occurances and I couldn't be happier.
I am so glad that I began my treatments with Bryan. My life has greatly improved ever since!"

Insomnia for over 3 years

"I had been experiencing chronic insomnia for over 3 years. Medications prescribed by my doctor never cured my sleeping problem and many lost their effectiveness or were not prescribed for long term use. As soon as my prescription would run out it would only be a matter of time before my symptoms returned.

Even the newer non-habit forming drugs left me feeling exhausted the next day. I decided to try acupuncture on the advice of a friend. I wasn’t familiar with acupuncture or its uses and had never considered it an option. When I came in for my consultation I was very impressed with Bryan’s “whole body” approach. He made it very clear that he intended on determining the cause of my insomnia. By treating those causes specific to me, my sleep pattern would improve.

I was thrilled that acupuncture could actually treat what was causing my insomnia instead of just knocking me out for 8 hours with a pill! After only a few treatments I noticed a significant improvement in my sleep. I was falling asleep with increasing ease and my usual pattern of waking in the middle of the night had noticeably diminished. I am so happy with the results I’ve gotten from these treatments, it gave me my life back!"

Tennis Elbow for 6 months

"I must admit I had serious doubts that Mr. Suazo's acupuncture treatments would help my tennis elbow.

I had been experiencing symptoms for over 6 months and they were getting worse for the past few weeks. I used conventional therapy and I stayed off the tennis courts to help the healing process. I wasn't getting any better and I was getting frustrated. So, how was acupuncture going to help?

I don't know how...I just know that it did! And it did almost immediately after one treatment. I felt the improvement and was encouraged. I followed up with several treatments every other day and within a week I was back on the courts. I played all summer and fall without pain or relapse. Thank you Mr. Suazo. You made my season a success."

Anxiety/Depression for 1 year

"I have experienced anxiety and mild depression most of my adult life but it wasn't until this past year that it was getting more severe.

After being prescribed several different medications by my doctor (I kept changing because of the side effects), I decided to seek out other options.

I was referred to Bryan by a friend of mine and I am so glad she did! After only a few treatments, I felt like a completely new person. It was as if someone flipped on a light switch in my head. The feelings of depression and anxiety have greatly reduced and my life is so much better because of that. My family even said that life around the house has improved because I have improved. I couldn't ask for more!

I would gladly recommend acupuncture to anyone, especially for depression and anxiety. Thank you!"

Smoking Cessation

"I have been a smoker for many years and when I decided to quit for the first time, I realized how difficult it really was.

I tried several times over the next few years and ended up smoking again each time. For me, the irritablility was the worst part of quitting. It made my job almost unbearable and it was very difficult to get through the day. It seemed like I all I thought about was giving in and having a cigarette.

I came across Bryan's website and thought I would give it a try. The treatment was painless and left me feeling very relaxed. After each treatment, I felt less and less irritable and the cravings were minimal. This let me get over my biggest obstacle and allowed me get my mind off of smoking.

So far, I am smoke-free for 6 months and I feel great. I now focus on my health and I also like how much money I am saving not being a smoker!"

Neck and Back Pain for a year and a half

"I was in a very bad car accident almost two years ago and injured my neck and lower back. My physical therapist recommended acupuncture to help manage the pain I was experiencing. As it turns out, a co-worker of mine has been treated by Bryan in the past and had many good things to say about him.

During my initial consultation, Bryan explained that I may or may not feel any relief for at least a few treatments due to the severity of my injuries. I was amazed that after the very first treatment, my pain was so much less!

I am currently continuing both my physical therapy and acupuncture treatments and I am very optimistic that I will have a 100% recovery.

I can't thank you enough for helping me through this difficult time!"
