I wanted to give it a try for some chronic annoying issues…read more There are many acupuncturists in the area; I chose Holden Acupuncture based on location & what I read on the informative website. I have gone five times now & can honestly say it's helped me. Robin is awesome; she is a great listener, very knowledgeable , & made me feel comfortable from the very first visit. I look forward to my visits & always leave feeling very relaxed. The location is convenient & I have always been able to schedule appointments at a time that works for me. My only complaint is the building itself; the landlord has some maintenance issues that need to be addressed; the stairwell is gross and parking isn't always ideal. Robin has done a great job making a comfortable suite / oasis in a less than perfect building. So still 5 stars! If you haven't tried acupuncture, go for it, and try Holden Acupuncture! P.S. The needles don't hurt!

I first seen Laurie back in 2018 for anxiety and stress, while the sessions worked great, my insurance didn't cover it.

She is the best and has helped me with grief, stress, anxiety, depression and physical pain from bad posture, 25+ years of computer work, and the pain from overall stress does to your body! I have been going to Laurie consistently for 2 years and have felt the best I have felt my entire life. Acupuncture is a treatment for the mind, body and soul!

Highland Family Care (Chiropractic)…read more Terrible! Oct; 2009; At first they (Ian and Arlene Simpson) corrected ear ringing caused by a misaligned neck vertebrae from another chiropractor doing a unbalanced alignment. Then, when I wanted to stop treatment because I told them I feel fine, and do not need any more treatments; they talked me into staying longer, then started doing the same unbalanced, neck, and back misalignments that the old chiro applied that caused health problems! I ended up at U-Mass hospital Belmont street, Worcester, MA on Friday night (after Arlene Simpson did a lot of unbalance neck, back alignments) with vertigo, blind spots in my vision. Ian and Arlene Simpson, Highland Chiropractic did not answer my messages asking for help all weekend. Said they did not recognize my number on their cell phone. Took me in on Monday morning, kept me waiting in the office with vertigo, fear as he complained for 10 minutes about his parking space. Then he did another bad neck alignment, increased the vertigo, then threw my back out with a one sided unbalanced alignment; I asked him to please do the other side so its balanced like a good chiro does. He said he wont because if it does not pop I will complain so he may as well not even bother trying. Then he, Ian Simpson, said I will never be cured and have to stay with them for 240 appointments and more for life! Then made me sign a release form stating I agree injury can occur from chiropractic treatment. Other new chiropractors then examined me after this injury and said highland had a main vertebrae on the base of my neck that connects to the rest of the spine twisted on the spine and many other mis-alignments. Took 5 chiros before I found 2 that would take the risk of repairing Highlands damage. Said these are the kind of chiros that give good chiropractors a bad name! I am still suffering dizziness, neck pain, vision, hearing problems, numbness in arms, cant work, difficulty walking after 18 months!! Cant sleep without waking up partly blind, dizzy... Keep yourself and children away from these Criminals!! They like to work on kids, sports injuries. Call Medical for a list of 4+ other patient injury complaints against Highland! Download the complete true story in PDF at: http://cleareyesight-batesmethod.info/id150.htm and http://cleareyesight.info/id26.html (Chiropractors keep calling my phone asking me to remove the webpage.) This man and wife team are crooks, they are scary people that seem nice, friendly but want to dis-align a persons spine to keep the patient dependent on endless treatments. They will also try to get the patient to buy 'Isogenetics health product kit' and sell for them - a multi-level marketing scam! Many of the ingredients, strange herbs cause health problems! Example MACA and bilberry LEAF cause Thyroid hormone impairment and other health problems. Update; Sept., 2014; honest doctors took x-rays and fixed as much of the damage they could that the Simpsons caused. Took years to get over the vertigo, trouble walking, sleeping, bouts of blindness, wandering eye, double vision, many other problems these evil chiropractors caused. Check Medical; I meet many people in Price Chopper and other stores, work places that have been injured. Kids are being injured. Check Medical for complaints!

Laura was able to see me the next day and got me back on track. My regular maintenance appointments have been a game changer.

It's so easy to get there once a month to feel so much better.

*Dr. Hodne - Chiropractor Extraordinaire*…read more I stumbled upon Dr. Hodne's Chiropractic practice via the wonderful Yelp app and of the many accolades I've given in my written reviews, this one is filled with gratitude! I called because I was suddenly struck with excruciating leg pain that was so bad that it prevented me from sleeping through the night. At the risk of sounding dramatic, the pain was clearly a 10 and over the counter medications weren't helping, an X-Ray showed nothing and I had nowhere to turn but to see a Chiropractor. My initial phone call was met with a sincere desire, on Dr. Hodne's part, to listen to what I was saying and much to my surprise, she offered me an appointment for the very next day! Upon arrival to her clean, modern office, she greeted me personally and took the time to explain, in detail, the entire process. And then, in less than a half hour's time, I felt relief from the pain and she sent me home with a plan that would help me until I saw her again. I recently had my 2nd visit and I can honestly say that I'm hooked on this very talented practitioner!

I can't recommend this place enough for pediatric chiropractic care. I took my four year old son…read morein because he was having terrible growing pains at night. We had a consultation meeting where we went over all aspects of health and lifestyle. I learned a lot about what could trigger and worsen my son's leg cramps. Dr. Danielle put him on a chiropractic plan and gave me dietary suggestions. After several months of care my son's growing pains were happening less frequently and with less intensity. We went from two times a week of inconsolable pain to about once a month of manageable discomfort. In addition, my son became more even-keeled in his temperament. He started sleeping better and longer. My only regret is that I didn't start him here sooner!

ARB is more than a group of chiropractors as advertised here. They offer a variety of services to…read moredeal with pain, recurring or chronic sport injuries, and discomfort. They obviously also offer chiropractic services and consultations but that is not what brought me into contact with them. Dr. Abbie (Zubiel) has treated me every time I go in to see her. It is primarily for maintenance for a partially torn glute medius that happened about 2 years ago. I started treatment and physical therapy in North Carolina and re-aggravated it after about 6 months moving to here. I immediately began searching for a treatment spot that mimicked my one in NC and found ARB online. They treat a number of local athletes, teams, and weekend warriors which means they understand what our lifestyle is and what problems it can often lead to. Abbie treated me not only in a completely professional and mature manner, but also took my opinions and preferences into consideration when treating me. It was not the burn-and-churn or "just give it some rest" that so many highly touted sports physicians have given me over the years (including a couple at Duke Sports Medicine). The goal was to incrementally get better and moving which was accomplished over 3 visits. She even gave me the "don't do anything stupid" talk that I frequently got from my practitioner in NC (always given with a wink and a smile). I continue to go for maintenance and always recommend whenever anyone asks me what I do to keep on top of my recovery and prevent injury. One of the best things about ARB is they also work with a number of the local health insurances that are offered in Boston. This means you can get treatment and not have to pay out of pocket for every visit over the co-pay and any miscellaneous charges that may arise which are not covered by insurance (like the $5 dry-needling charge).

She fixed a variety of issues that I had and was creative in her problem solving. She is down-to-earth and pleasant to be around. Her goal is to help you heal you enough so that you aren't dependent on frequent adjustments. In the less than 3 months that I've been under her care, we've been able to scale back from 2 visits per week to 2 visits per month without any backsliding or issues arising thus far. I can't recommend her enough.

Every time we go which is once per month we get seen with the best care possible. I do not ever feel uncomfortable during or after an adjustment. This facility is NOT like many others. They DO NOT schedule to come 3 times a week then 2 and have physical therapy. They do not "crack you" like many other places. My biggest issue with going to other chiropractor places was the neck twisting and the twisting of the body. Carol does NOT do that. She has a tool that looks like a mini hand held pogo stick. You feel nothing. I recommend this to so very many people. Chiropractic care makes your body feel better. She takes the time to ask what is bothering you and works to make it better.
