I had back pain from a fall and had been told by three doctors that surgery was not an option. After five years of pain, a friend suggested The Fountain Acupuncture. I'll admit I was apprehensive about the procedure. When the procedure started, I was not aware of the needles being put into place - no pain. After the procedure, I got off the table and stood there for a few seconds and, all of a sudden, I was aware I had no pain in my back! I could not believe it... I highly recommend The Fountain Acupuncture. I give it 5 stars!!!!! Very professional service!" - S.S.

After so many years of living with back and neck pain, I thought I'd have to live in pain for the rest of my life. I am finally and consistently living a normal life, virtually pain-free." - S.T.

I've been on some of the strongest meds, and sometimes that pain would still break through, so this [acupuncture] has been amazing!" - S.N.

It has been amazing. Thursday night I slept the best I have probably slept in years. I woke up Friday morning amazed - I had no pain Friday at all. Saturday I had no pain until late in the day and even then it was very manageable. The pain is 80% better - I’m amazed and was bragging about it yesterday. I don’t understand how it works but I know it does! It’s something I have been missing this whole time - I’m 74!" - R.N.

I got incredible relief from the initial acupuncture. Now, if, and when I do have pain, it is milder with each episode... In one treatment Kristin stops the pain." - A.C.

I always have a better sense of well-being when I leave here, that always helps me cope. It’s such a restful state compared to never feeling that way. It makes me feel for people that don’t ever get to feel that way [after acupuncture]. I do feel more human, a better version of myself. Now if you just had dinner for me on the way out the door, you’d be a saint!" - R.H.

I am so tickled that I can be outside and plant my flowers that I usually can’t plant until June. That has been so tremendous. That, and my digestion [which is] very good. Between those two things I can get out of the house so much more. I can be outside and not barricade myself in due to allergens." - L.F.

I feel great compared to when I first came in here. It's exciting, actually. It's great not to feel pain, to be about 95% pain-free." - E.R.

We both can't say enough about the instant pain/pressure reduction that was felt after the acupuncture session. We can't wait to see you again." - A.G. + J.T.H.

If people have misconceptions, it’s not painful, and it doesn’t take a long time. It’s a great time to maybe relax a little bit and enjoy that time away from your phone and other things, but for me, [acupuncture has been] life-changing and I’m very excited about it." - J.C.

I am feeling much better after using your herbs and plan to order more in the future; [the herbs are] a lot more effective than Miralax or other OTC products and much easier on my body." - J.A.

I love seeing people who have a passion for what they do, and love making a difference in people’s lives. God bless you." - M.J.

As always, thank you for doing what you do! Today's session was just what I needed... I awoke to feel better than I have most of the week. So, whatever you did was SPOT on and I can't thank you enough. One of my co-workers saw you today :) and is RAVING about you (as I told her she would be). She is already feeling much better and is trying to convince her teenage daughter to see you, as well. - A.G.

I can tell that you really, really love what you do, and you love to help people." - C.C.
