“I had severe sciatica pain that radiated down from my hip to my ankle. I had severe pain for 3-4 weeks straight. I say severe as I was brought to tears. After the first treatment with Edward, I experienced a significant decrease in pain and for the first time I could say, “I felt better”, A true miracle.” Victoria F.

“I feel much better. My body is much more relaxed and less tight, so I am no longer in pain. I feel terrific. Dr. Scarlett is awesome and I enthusiastically recommend him. He is gifted in knowing exactly which trigger points are in need of treatment.” Sherrie B.

“ Medical Dr.’s gave me medication for irregular periods and told me I would never have one on my own naturally. I came for acupuncture as I knew a more natural approach was for me. After the first session I had a regular period with no medication and 6 months later I am pregnant!” Maggie M.
