After 3 months excruciating pain, living on 4 different pain medications, steroid epidural injections every 3 weeks, and to the point where surgery was going to be my only option for Degenerative Disk Disease, I made an appointment with Thrive Acupuncture Center after the referral of a friend.

In a 1/2hr I had the most relaxing experience I have had in months and my pain lessened for the rest of the day.

When I went for my follow-up Drd. appointment to schedule my next epidural injection, we discussed my experience with the procedure, my Dr. was THRILLED that I chose this method of alternative medicine and chose not to schedule me for my routine injection. Instead, he would like me to continue with the acupuncture feeling that it my not just be a method of pain control but may prevent my need of surgery as well.”

I had the most wonderful treatment on Friday. I was suffering with a medical condition that is very hard to control and with Kevin’s attentive acupuncture and moxa treatment I felt so much better and ready to face the world again. I also was able to get an appointment the same day I really needed it, which really helped.”

I have been up and down the east coast for the past two years going to different doctors and trying different therapies to try to find an answer to a neurological condition that I have that causes severe pain in my arms and legs. They found no answer and I had no relief. My last resort was to try acupuncture.  By the third acupuncture treatment my pain was almost entirely gone.  I was amazed and extremely grateful! My only regret is that I did not try acupuncture sooner.

I have six herniated discs in my back and my doctors say that my only option is surgery. I did not want to undergo another back surgery as my last one was unsuccessful. I asked my doctor if there is any other options and he suggested that I try acupuncture. I am so thankful that he did. Acupuncture keeps my pain under control and allows me to keep working to support my family.”
