MAJOR UPSIDE SURPRISE. Went to see Dr. Gries at recommendation of massage therapist - dry needling for treating sciatica. Not only was he immensely helpful at getting this cleared up in a few weeks, he also cured my severe food allergies (which vastly limited my eating for the past 20 years - see auricular therapy for more info) and helped me get over night time insomnia (through mix of acupuncture and over the counter supplements) ... now sleeping like a rock 7-8 hours/night. I seriously can't recommend him and his work enough, and my family is now working with him as well.
Love, love working with Dr. Adam, and deeply appreciate his wise, learned, and caring way.
I had such an amazing experience with acupuncture and moxibustion during my pregnancy. My baby was in a breech position. I decided to try this natural approach, and I’m so glad I did.
The sessions were incredibly calming and professional. I felt relaxed and well taken care of the entire time. The practitioner explained everything clearly, especially how moxibustion works to encourage the baby to turn.
After just a short time, I received the best news — my baby had turned head down! I truly believe that acupuncture and moxibustion played a huge role in helping make that happen.
I’m so grateful for this experience and would highly recommend it.
