Only with Michelle do I get full relief after or so it seems. There's an undeniable clean /comfortable atmosphere. ...( scent free air!). Two practitioners to choose from.

It seems somewhat surprising that a healthcare professional who has been in business in Chico for…read moreover 30 years has no reviews. Not sure why this is. Richard Baume has been a California licensed acupuncturist since 1981 and also states he is licensed in Japan. Initial appointment is $60 and follow-up appointments $45. Some healthcare plans cover acupuncture, typically with a copay and often requiring a recommendation by a licensed physician. Mr. Baume appears to have a practice with many patients. So same day or next day appointments may not be available. His office hours are Monday through Thursday 8:30am to 5:00pm with lunch noon to 2pm. Mr. Baume uses very small needles so any discomfort is almost none existent. He also does what seems like a pulse taking diagnosis involving the electrical or energy systems that is described as part of "traditional acupuncture." In our case, each treatment took at most 10 minutes. We went for a neuro-muscular problem at the suggestion of a friend. We found Mr. Baume to be friendly but not particularly clear about how his form of acupuncture works or how many treatments are likely to be needed. His office has a brochure on his form of acupuncture that is available without charge and there is also information he provides on yelp. After weekly treatments for several weeks, the problem seemed to improve. But since the condition was not acute or recurring it is unclear if normal exercise and care resulted in improvement or if the acupuncture was the key factor. After each treatment we did not notice any decrease in muscle discomfort or change in the muscular condition, either immediately or after several hours or days. Our friends have been going to Mr. Baume for years and it is not clear if this is because it provides temporary pain relief or some other benefit. We would suggest that each person consider this and other local practitioners and determine if after a reasonable, or affordable number of treatments the condition improves. It also might be advisable to review the evidence for acupuncture in relation to specific conditions found on reliable medical sites such as the Mayo Clinic, National Institutes of Health or WebMD.
