My option in traditional medicine was to take pain pills until it was bad enough for surgery. At the end of September I could barely use my arm and the pain was constant. I was desperate and figured what do I have to lose. 3 treatments in, I had regained 50 percent of my mobility and constant pain was gone with only pain in certain movements. After the 5th and final week I was at 80 percent and pain was almost completely gone. I'm now 3 weeks into physical therapy and my therapist is amazed at how quickly my strength and mobility is progressing at each visit, especially for someone my age. The staff was by far the best part of my experience at Pinnacle. During my visits I interacted with every member of the staff. Every one was friendly and professional. The injections I received in my joint can be painful. However, the expertise of the staff ensured it was as pain free as possible. Given what I do and the hundreds of visits to medical facilities over the years, you know if someone is good at their job, especially with long needles. I've had nerves hit, tendons hit, and bones hit. Not pleasant. Given the complexity of the shoulder it is a minefield of pain waiting to happen. The professionals at Pinnacle never made a single misstep. Not one. It was truly amazing. I'd never had acupuncture before and that was an eye opening experience. It was so relaxing. And then there was Tam, behind the front desk. He has a great personality and was always making sure you were comfortable and taken care of. His communication about appointments was excellent sending reminders and making sure you knew what was going on. On each visit I would see multiple staff members and would get text reminders of who I was seeing at what time so I always knew what would happen that day. Unheard of! The entire experience was amazing. The results are phenomenal. I don't know why I waited so long. I don't do reviews so this is a first for me. I never thought I'd be able to use my arm again, so I have to say something. Thank you so much to the staff at Pinnacle. Thanks to you I can continue doing what I love, riding like an idiot. I really thought I was done. You've given me back my life and I can never thank you enough. To those who have read this far, what are you waiting for? There is hope at Pinnacle.

I have been seeing Monica for acupuncture for the last couple of years. She has been incredibly effective with every issue that I've had. She's extremely knowledgeable and takes time to listen and discuss each health problem. She's treated me for things like wrist problems, high blood pressure and fatigue. In each case, she explained the causes for the problems and laid out a detailed plan to address each issue. Here's the best part, her plan works. Acupuncture in combination with herbal medicine is the reason that I have never felt better in my adult life. Her office is very relaxing and welcoming. She also has an excellent massage therapist on staff. Monica is a true professional and I would highly recommend her. read more

I thought "well, it can't get much worse!" and scheduled an initial acupuncture appointment.
