Chris, the owner, was very kind and thorough in the intake process and prescribed treatment. Miraculously, I felt better following some tuina massage and acupuncture.

I can't wait to go back (although hopefully under less dire circumstances than my first appointment). Can't recommend them enough!

I've been seeing Tracy Thorne for years. She's addressed digestive issues, hormone changes due to…read moregetting older, sleep issues, whiplash related to a car accident, and work stress. I used to go every week. Now, I go about every 2-3 months. And, I feel so much better every time! The thing about acupuncture is that it treats your whole system. I tried to see traditional doctors for chronic stomachaches but nothing helped. They kept suggesting Pepto and acid reducers which led me to rely fully on them. Only when I saw Tracy Thorne, did I start feeling better -- and within a couple of weeks! She did a comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan which included my diet, how much I exercise, stress reducers, yoga suggestions and discussion. Tracy offers a blend of Chinese Medicine, Japanese Style (less is more and gentle-does it), with a background in nutrition and yoga for a very comprehensive evaluation and treatment plan, which is updated each time. And, it's all done with compassion and caring, so that I feel that she really cares about me as a person, as well as a patient. She only sees one person at a time, and it's so gentle and quiet, great for introverts and those of us who like a spa-like experience! Japanese Style acupuncture is perfect if you're sensitive to needles, fearful of them, a Highly Sensitive Person, an Empath, or someone who likes the less-is-more mentality. The needles are thinner and Japanese-Style acupuncturists use way fewer needles! During times when I've felt more sensitive, she holds them above my skin (and palpates my stomach to find that it really works!), or does acupressure, Moxa (very gentle heat over the skin) or cupping to increase circulation in that area. Since seeing her, I no longer live on Pepto, no longer feel exhausted at 3:00 p.m., and sleep so much better! I highly, highly recommend Tracy Thorne for anyone who wants a superb acupuncturist who is sensitive to the needs of her patients.

This was my first time going to a physical therapist, so I wasn't sure what to expect. During our session, Jonathan was nothing short of stellar. He took the time to go through some basic exercises/movements to set a baseline, then walked me through a series of tests to diagnose the issue(s) I was having. After providing his assessment, Jonathan thoroughly explained the what and why of my pain--using some pretty cool technology on his tablet to walk me through everything--and offered some exercises to address the problem. The good new is: it totally worked. I've already recommended him to friends.

Cameron, besides being a super nice guy, is very professional, knows what he's doing, and is really attuned to my body's specific needs and abilities. Love the focus on returning to activity, not just getting rid of the pain. I've been to a number of physical therapists over time, and my treatment at Pedal PT has been the best of all of them.

I have had a great experience at Pedal PT. Kevin and Brian were able to resolve a number of issues…read morefor me over several months: - Hand pain while biking and while typing. - Knee pain while biking and while sitting. - Headaches related to computer use and ergonomics. - Back pain related to computer use and ergonomics. - Extremely poor ankle mobility. Something I especially appreciated is that on top of treating you, they educate you as well. This has been really helpful to me. I feel like I understand why the things I've done have caused pain and why various stretches and exercises mitigate that pain. It's the old "teach a man to fish" thing. Now that I "know how to fish", I'm well positioned to avoid hurting myself in the future and to make various tweaks to the stretches and exercises to help me get the results I want. I feel a little silly acknowledging this now, but before going to Pedal PT I thought that the various forms of pain I was experiencing while biking or doing computer work were "just part of getting older" and "something I just need to deal with". I understand now that this is not the case. Small adjustments to your bike or to the ergonomics of your computer usage will often make the discomfort go away. And if not, there are usually stretches and exercises you could do to heal. As someone who bikes everywhere and uses a computer 10+ hours a day, I am extremely glad that I took the time to address the issues I was having, and I'm extremely grateful to Pedal PT for their help.

Date Created: 05/14/17…read more Eric Hepperle Review for: Empowered Health Chiropractic (Dr. Kim) 11804 SE Sunnyside Rd, Clackamas, OR 97015 5/5 stars OVERVIEW: EmPOWERED Health is amazing and they are about healing people, not just trying to squeeze money out of you like other chiropractors. Dr. Kim really cares about your wellbeing and has an uncanny insight into what structurally is wrong. I highly recommend Dr. Kim for all your chiropractic needs! MY EXPERIENCE: Dr. Kim was recommended to me by name from an energy medicine practitioner I was seeing. She told me that Dr. Kim was the best chiropractor she'd ever known and was making tremendous progress healing injuries almost half a century old. I was skeptical but I decided to give her a try. I was even more skeptical when I realized the building was small, right off the main road, and you would miss it if you weren't looking for it. There was not much parking available, but I managed to find a spot and went inside. Inside the door was a little reception area, and on my first appointment I was a little confused by the energy. If you are sensitive, or empathic, you will know what I mean. I noticed a few crystals and an aromatherapy mister making the place smell very nice. They were very busy and perhaps a bit behind, and at first I felt a little ignored. It was only later that I learned that it was because Dr. Kim dedicates whatever amount of time is required for each patient, a true measure of caring. My first appointment they did an intake session, all kinds of measurements and reflex tests to get a baseline for my physical state. After 30 minutes they started massaging areas that I had indicated needing attention as sore or bound up, with a rapidly vibrating device. This is what they call the "Rapid Release Technique" or "Active Release Technique". After about 45 minutes of a thorough exam, I finally got to see Dr. Kim. I didn't know what to expect on first meeting her, but let me tell you, I was blown away by her uncanny intuition when she began to examine me! She's a Texas spitfire, medically trained but also skilled in many alternative and complementary therapies including energy work. Within 30 seconds of beginning to examine me, she found energetic (grounding) and physical reasons for my conditions. As the website says, they do whole body chiro, not just neck and back! She did my neck adjustment in a more thorough way than I've ever had done. Then she finished doing my back, my ribs, my shoulders, and collarbone too. Dr. Kim gave me a complimentary copy of her new book and advised me to do the "zen stretch" described within. The session ended with me getting on a roller bed that used jets of hot water --- it was amazing!! AM I HEALED? After the first visit, my shoulder became straighter, didn't click as much, and felt less chronic soreness in the joint, my neck hurt a little less (I am a writer and web developer, so I spend a lot of hours sitting in front of a computer and using a mouse), and my lower back, hips, and feet were feeling better, as well. After 2 months of sessions every week, I am feeling better than I have overall in 4 years! The carpal-tunnel-like symptoms that were starting to develop have all but gone away, I can type faster now, and I sleep better at night. There is still a little ways to go, but for the most part, I'd say yes, I am healed! LIKES: * Dr. Kim and her staff are very compassionate and heart-centered * They work with you to figure out what is wrong and get to the ROOT of the problem * They do not prescribe medication, only physical manipulation of the body * Dr. Kim is very sensitive to the energy workings in the body and can find hidden things that traditional doctors don't even know about * The RRT machine releases scar tissue so your body can begin to heal itself * Dr. Kim really listens and will do whatever she can to help your body heal * Prices are reasonable and Oregon Health Plan insurance makes it less than $20 a visit * You can schedule chiro and massage on the same day. Best so far for me has been 1 hr massage with Nick, followed by a 15-20 min session with Dr. Kim SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT: * They need more parking, but somehow I've always been able to find a spot. :) CONCLUSION: Anyone experiencing pain in the body can benefit from a visit to EmPOWERED Health. Dr. Kim and her staff will lovingly and light-heartedly work with you in a down-to-earth way to find the root of what's wrong. You will begin to find healing where before was only pain. I believe that Dr. Kim is a miracle worker. If you have been to allopathic physicians and alternative practitioners and none of them have been able to cure you, give Dr. Kim a try. She may just save your life!
