After 8 months of pain and going to multiple specialist, I finally can sleep through the night. It took a few sessions but I feel so much better. I highly recommend Acupuncture Pain and Stress Center if you are suffering from a pinched nerve that won't go away. You don't have to live in pain.

I was recently in North Carolina with my mother visiting family and my mom needed an emergency acupuncturist because she was having sciatica and leg pain and it was painful to walk. We were going to be driving back home for 9+ hours and the ride was going to be brutal so we found Jim online and he was the easiest business to make an appointment with (I booked online)and he fit us in the same day. After my mom's appointment she was a little sore (as was expected and explained) but the next day my mom was almost as good as new and the car ride went fine for her. I told Jim I would leave him a review (without him even asking for one) because if he was able to heal my mom of her pain in one session than he definitely deserved one! Thank you (from my mom and myself to not see her in pain)!

Jim is one of the most thorough, caring, skilled practitioners I have ever dealt with. He worked with me to resolve pain that could not be treated by other methods. I cannot take most medications for pain and was in constant pain. Jim changed all that for me, AND WITHOUT SIDE EFFECTS.
If you are suffering with pain and want an effective and SAFE treatment, Jim is the answer. He is very skilled at acupuncture, and integrates other modalities for thorough and effective treatment.

I have been coming Acupuncture Pain and Stress Center for several years and Jim's work is fantastic. He is very thorough and has a detailed knowledge of how to alleviate pain and pinpoint where the pain is originating. I have recommended him to others and make Jim a part of my monthly routine.

I came to Jim after having low back pain for over 5 years, 2-3 PT treatments, and being diagnosed with degenerated / torn disks. The doctors said there was nothing to do except for some invasive procedures to manage the pain. I decided to look for a personalized treatment somewhere, and thats how I found Acupuncture Pain and Stress Center. Jim took the time to understand my issues, dove deep at muscular instabilities that were contributing to my pain and proceeded to treat them, all very personalized and very different from your typical PT practice. He explained to me what was happening and what he was treating. After 3 weeks, I have to say I feel no pain anymore. I had forgotten what this feels like! He was also very thoughtful and ethical in telling me I did not need anymore sessions, so that I wouldn’t keep spending my money. He just left me with a set of exercises to do on my own, and an open invite to come back if the pain ever comes back. I would absolutely recommend Jim for anyone who’s experiencing pain, and I will say that the costs are 100% worth it and nothing compared to the relief of being pain free.

After dealing with sciatic nerve pain for years I tried acupuncture at “acupuncture pain and stress center”. At first I was skeptical, but after several treatments I started to see real improvement in my symptoms. I used to have pain daily, but now it isn’t uncommon for me to go a week pain free.

Jim is very knowledgeable, personable and professional! He took the time to listen to all my symptoms and troubles, did a full evaluation to assess the problem areas, and created a custom plan to eliminate the issues I had. After even one visit my pain was night and day better and over the course of a few visits the pain was gone. I highly recommended seeing him to live pain free like me!

Hello to all that read my post. I will start by saying i apologize if im long winded. But im a person that gives credit where its due. I will also state that if you read all the posts you will see i posted about 3 yrs ago. With that being said here you go. My dealings with Jim started 3 yrs ago. This came after going to chiropractor for over a yr along with my own stretching. I also used the inversion table. The pain and discomfort wouldnt go away. Ive had lower back surgery for spine issues and this pain was differant. So I also used accupunture in past with great results. So I went to 1 near me. After my 2nd visit I knew she was not the 1 for me. Trust me when I say ALL accupunturists are not created equal.. Just like western medicine. Some are specialists for a reason. Sorry to say its called skillsets. So now im on the search and i came upon Jim. Im not going to lie, the first to treatments were tough. Jim went right to work ... I will admit i was like wow and a lil nervous. But by the 6th treatment i felt amazing. The pain was gone. I could sleep and I could hug my other half without pain going down my leg. Here it is 3 yrs later and alls well with my leg. So at this point im like hmmmm. I may have found THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH....LOL...So since i was your typical male growing up , I had the mentality of you cant hurt me...well im here to tell you I was wrong. There are days that i ache like i got hit by a car in my upper body.. So Doc ( Jim ) and i chatted and he started on my shoulders. He got me to feeling awesome . Best i felt in yrs and im in my 60s...So i had all intentions on getting back to exercise to maintain my body. Thats the key to a healthy life...well like most americans i didnt start my exercise so i was feeling achy and having issues moving my arms... so i called Jim and said I need your help and we really examined my issues. During that Jim found a muscle group that was weaker then it should be , hence making other muscles do overtime.. So between his work and his exercises im back to feeling good. So all I can say is give this man a try. And give him a chance to figure out whats causing your issues. I can say is it took us years to beat ourselves to this point. Give him some time to figure out what you need. So trust me folks, Jim will get you back to a productive life fast... Thanks Jim for helping me continue my journey to 100...lol
