I can sleep comfortably and lead a normal life

I began acupuncture treatment after a minor vehicle crash which caused me neck, shoulder and lower back pain. Physical therapy did not work and seemed to cause me more pain. After a couple of sessions at The Acupuncture Clinic, I began to feel relief. I was sleeping through the night, taking less medication and rating my pain lower and less frequently. I am almost done with my acupuncture sessions and feel wonderful. Steve Phillips from the clinic provides a gentle, relaxing but effective treatment. I have never had acupuncture treatments before but can honestly say that it has helped me with my pain so that I can sleep comfortably and lead a normal life.

Helping to relieve my pain

I was hospitalized four weeks ago with horrible backpain. Unable to lay down in my bed or sit down in a chair. I spent more than a week without sleep. Until my husband suggested to me to try acupuncture.

For the first session with Steve Phillips most of my back pain was gone. After the 4th session, I was able to sleep through the night for the first time in 2 weeks.

Thank you so much Steve for your care, understanding and helping to relieve my pain.

I appreciate the technique of Acupuncture

Because I’m a Neuroscientist (retired), I appreciate the technique of Acupuncture, and know there is a good scientific basis for its success in blocking pain.

I went to Steve for acute lower back pain, and was well and golfing again within a week of a single treatment.

While I was in the office, I noticed a pamphlet about the use of Acupuncture as an alternative to face-lift surgery. I have now been going in for approximately weekly sessions, and after 6 weeks, my friends are looking at me with an unspoken question “What are you doing?” and saying “you look great”. Several people haven’t recognized me when I approached them at events, and I do believe it’s working to lessen lines and tighten up the flesh, over my cheeks especially. I think this is a great alternative to cosmetic surgery, and if Steve thinks it would work on someone’s skin, I would highly recommend giving it a try. I understand it doesn’t work for everyone, but I’m really pleased with the results on my face.

I used a walker until I saw Steve Phillips

I had never had acupuncture before and never thought I would. However, March 17, 2007 I was cleaning the garage out and my back was hurting before I was done. A few hours later I could hardly move without pain. I had problems in the 2005 but physical therapy and one spinal epidural (steroid) injection put me back on my feet. This time I had 2 epidurals and physical therapy and lots of pain medication. Besides having pain in the back my left leg would give out and I had severe leg cramps. I used a walker until I saw Steve Phillips and had my first treatment with acupuncture. So after being in a walker for 4 months in order to get around I am one very happy lady. I would and have recommended acupuncture to anyone that is living on pain pills and not getting better. Thanks Steve for giving me back my life, I can once again enjoy shopping, concerts and vacation, let alone day to day living.

Acupuncture helps to keep my body balanced

I’ve been going to Dr. Steve Phillips for approximately ten years. I had a car accident approximately 15 years ago, when I got hit by a eighteen wheeler truck. My lower back goes out and my body is headed into two different directions. Dr. Steve Phillips, a good chiropractic adjustment and a day off work, I am back to standing up erect without any pains or discomforts. Acupuncture helps to keep my body balanced and less stressed when my lower back is happy. I highly recommend Dr. Phillips for any of your body pains or discomforts.

Dear Steve,

Thank you for the acupuncture treatments. You have not only helped me with the treatments for the pain in my back and neck, but for the T.M.J. and inner ear.

Thanks Steve

“Try him and see for yourself!”

I am a 76 year old man, and have had back problems and sciatica most of my life. I was a baker for 40 years and have been cutting firewood for 34 years. Pain pills do help relieve the pain, but hinder other skills, like driving. Acupuncture with Steve Phillips has helped me to do things I normally could not do.

What I really like about Steve Phillips is that he really listens to my problem and then does the best he knows how to take care of it. All I can say is, “Try him and see for yourself!

Instant relief

My name is Eric. I injured my back in a work related injury in 1989. From 1989 to 2004, I was in continuous back and neck pain. I tried physical therapy, medications, chiropractic treatment, but nothing seemed to work. In 2004 I heard about Steve Phillips Acupuncture Clinic and decided to give it a try. After the first treatment I felt instant relief. I could not believe that after two more more treatments, I did not experience any more pain in my back and neck for over a year. In my time off work, I help coach high school baseball. I’ve been so impressed with Steve Phillips’ Acupuncture Clinic, I have recommended several athletes and their parents, as well as co-workers. Not one of my recommendations have come back with negative results. I would recommend Steve Phillips to any one who has physical ailments.

Promising results

On an early spring day of this year my neighbor noticed that I was very distressed with a serious sinus infection (for over 45 days of missed work) and suggested I see Steve Phillips as he’d helped him with a long running chronic sinus infection. This turned out to be great and welcome advice. After only 3 visits with acupuncture and herb treatments I was cured and back to work. Thanks Steve

P.S. I’m so happy with Steve’s work that I’m now having him treat my low back pain with promising results.
