PAIN RELIEF

Pain is an epidemic in the United States and the predominant reason Americans seek health care. As a complex and debilitating condition, the desire for effective & safe pain relief has led many Americans to search for holistic approaches to health care such as acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. At POPULUSS we incorporate the use of acupuncture, herbs, cupping, gua sha, and moxibustion to reduce and manage pain.

Our completely customizable holistic approach to pain relief seeks to address the entire person, body & mind. By balancing the central nervous system, Classical Chinese Medicine addresses pain that is triggered or aggravated by stress, and conversely reduces stress and anxiety caused by body pain. Rather than a “one-size-fits-all” type of treatment approach, we address each person’s pain as a unique individual set of circumstances, which is a primary benefit of Classical eastern healing.

  • "Joe has helped me through a difficult recovery from surgery and has even supported me with navigating the impossible hurdles of health insurance madness, giving me all around solid tips and recommendations. Joe is not only amazing with needles, but with herbs, and other Chinese medicine techniques." -Barbara M

  • "I am recovering from a spine surgery on my lower back. I heard about Joe from a neighbor and am so glad I found him! I have been getting acupuncture with him and I couldn't be any happier; after every treatment I feel better and more relaxed which makes me very optimistic!! Joe has an excellent approach to total wellness and a command for the herbal side of Chinese Medicine as well. If you are considering acupuncture for the first time go with Joe he is absolutely amazing - you won't regret it!" –Amy D

  • "Such a nice place. I've been seeing Joe for several months now and he's helped enormously with my terrible headaches and with ongoing foot and neck issues. He's kind and funny and thoughtful and the entire experience of being there a great reset for my body and soul." -Chuck W

  • "My coworker recommended this place for some nerve issues and not being able to turn her neck. I was having the same type of problems with my elbow and feeling nerve issues down my arms and hands. Took two weeks off of my massage job. Came in did some cupping as well as needles with Dr. Joe. Joe is a great listener and comes up with a plan but he's not pushy. I’m sitting here feeling like 1 million bucks. Definitely worth the investment." -Jasmine G

  • “I suffer from a number of physical and mental pains, including horrible headaches. My sessions with Joe are like a tall glass of cold lemon water after a long run on a hot day. I have a high paced job and the hour I spend during acupuncture and cupping appointments calms me, refocuses me and reminds me to take time to take care of myself. Equally as important - I FEEL better. Joe believes in treating the entire individual, but he's also addressed symptoms of mine head on - sleeplessness, restlessness, migraines, low grade neck pain. I am currently about 1 month into acupuncture and taking herbs (first time in my life trying it) and I already feel different. I can't recommend Joe enough. He's wonderful, knowledgeable and kind.” -Perry M
