What Patients Are Saying

I had my first session with Jason this week. Although I had been for Acupuncture many years ago, I was nervous (not great with needles) Jason immediately put me at ease. The office and his caring personality is clamming and healing. I felt he quickly got to the root of my problem and have already had wonderful results after just one treatment. The session was truly a wonderful experience. -Jeffery L.

“I just finished a 10-hour day running the charity where I teach bicycle education. Last year when I had two surgeries for cancer and chemotherapy, too, I wasn’t sure I would be able to keep the place open this year. But with your acupuncture treatments and knowledge of Chinese herbs to strengthen me before and after my procedures, I am not only back in the saddle, but working as much as ever. Thank you for making it possible for me to continue my dream providing bicycle education. I can’t wait for my next treatment.- Steve S.

“Last summer I had a major bike accident, which caused nerve damage that left my right arm partially paralyzed. Working with Jason Rinker has made a huge difference. Using a variety of techniques — acupuncture, cupping, muscle manipulation, moxa, electrical stimulation, and herbal medicines – my healing has accelerated. Jason’s exceptional hands-on skills and customized approach to treatment makes me confident to recommend him to anyone.” - Andrew

“After I was involved in a car accident, I began experiencing low back pain. I schedule some appointments for acupuncture and cupping with Jason. Now I am pain free and my range of motion returned.” - John

“For almost three years I’ve been seeing Jason for acupuncture treatments to help with stress and hormone balance. Although the changes are subtle week to week, the change as a whole over the last few years is quite dramatic. I’ve become much more balanced in every aspect of my life. Jason’s knowledge in acupuncture and Chinese herbs have made all the difference.” - Diane

“Even on the controlled gluten free diet I continued with chronic diarrhea and pain. I was treated with numerous medications ranging from a variety of mesalamines up through steroids with no success. I sought treatment with Jason and within a few sessions pain lessened quite dramatically, but the most amazing thing is within three weeks of taking his prescribed TCM I no longer have chronic diarrhea. I continue with weekly sessions to assist my immune system as overall well being.” - Mary Elizabeth

“Jason is phenomenal. Every time I leave his office, I feel noticeably better. From allergy problems to chronic pain, he has been a tremendous help, and I feel fantastic!” - Danielle J.
