“I have observed that acupuncture has a nice effect of moderating and regulating the body to help it better deal with the many health challenges that arise in life. I find the herbs to be a great complement to the acupuncture and in some cases the preferred approach depending on the particular issue we are working with.” – Matt Ferguson.

What Patients say?

“I just wanted to call and let you know that I went into labor that evening after I saw Matt and the birth went smoothly and I think it was because of the acupuncture!” – via phone call on April 12, 2019

J.

You are the best!…amazing treatment…felt 100% better right after my treatment…continues today. Got up without my stiffness and pain!

G.G.

It took everything I had not to go to the hospital, and then after my treatment with Matt I could walk without grimacing and even play with the grandkids!

A.B.

I had no pain whatsoever after last week's treatment.

D.R.

The herbs worked great! After 2 doses my skin cleared up!

E.R.

I have been receiving treatment for chronic hives. After only one session they were noticeably reduced (which is such a relief after over 5 months!) I plan to continue in hopes they will completely go away. With Matt, he was very thorough in his questioning and I genuinely felt as if he was determined to help me and my frustratingly difficult to pinpoint condition. I have seen Stephanie as well (I'm floating around due to scheduling conflicts) and I also found her to be very kind and thoughtful in her questioning and am looking forward to more appointments. The office itself is very warm and inviting and casual enough to make you feel comfortable throughout your appointment.

I loved my appointment with Matt and I just wanted to call and have you thank him for me!” – a brand new mother (she called right after her baby was born).

Thank you so much for your care and attention. My visits have made a huge difference. Wishing you the best, Thanks.
