Testimonials

I went to John to explore acupuncture and it was a great experience. His office is very relaxing and he is very passionate about his work and thorough. I had some lower back tightness that is completely gone after one session. I go see John often because I get the healing I need and someone who is looking out for my well-being.

Dr. John is absolutely wonderful. I called him at random because my husband has issues with his shoulder/arm and knee and his knee got so bad he was limping. I called to inquire and told him the situation and he said that he could meet with us the next day. I stressed how my husbands pain was so bad that I was considering taking him to the ER.

I highly recommend John at Bodhi. He is very thorough, caring and skilled. I have been receiving this treatment for one year now, 1-2 times per week, and it has helped tremendously. In addition to relieving my neck and shoulder pain, i leave the treatment feeling extremely relaxed and calm. You will receive a great value. John also uses an amazing massage machine after the treatment for additional relaxation. You don’t want to miss this place.

I started seeing John for lower back pain and insomnia about a year and a half ago. The treatments worked great. Then my husband and I decided to try for baby 2. After my second treatment for fertility I got pregnant. I saw John throughout my pregnancy for relaxation and pelvic pain. I delivered a healthy baby girl 2 weeks ago. John is super nice, affordable, and flexible. I can’t wait to try his treatments for anti aging!

Once again John at Bodhi Acupuncture and Wellness hit it out of the park as far as my treatment. Earlier in the year, I came to him for tendinitis in my right elbow, he resolved the pain in about 4 treatments or so. I’ve returned for stress treatments and found it to be very effective, plus I sleep better too.
