I am writing this in efforts of giving hope to women who are suffering from early menopause or menopausal symptoms. I was told by my OB that I could not do anything to ease (let alone even reverse) my peri-menopausal symptoms.
I was suffering with up to 5 hot flashes an hour and was an emotional mess. My blood tests showed an FSH levels in November of 2013 were 67. God awful for a 41 year old.But fast... Read more »
I’ve been a regular patient of John Nieters for over a year now and have to admit he has helped save my life. John and his staff have helped give me the tools to bring more awareness to my own mind and body. Ultimately giving me more control over my own health.

Your acupuncturist can help you find the path to detoxification—a journey of renewal and revitalization for both body and soul. continue reading
Lecture on Detox and Weight Loss: Can Acupuncture Really Help You Lose Weight?
Obesity remains a top concern among health professionals in the U.S. According to a study published in the Journal of American Medicine (JAMA), more than one third of adults in the U.S. are clinically obese (source). People who fall under this category are more likely to develop heart disease, diabetes, and even certain types of cancer.
While there’s no substitution for exercise and a well-balanced diet, the ancient Chinese practice of acupuncture may promote weight loss in adults battling obesity. Numerous studies have reinforced the belief that acupuncture can aid in weight loss. So instead of embarking on a potentially dangerous “fad” diet, such as an all-liquid lemon detox diet, consider acupuncture treatment to assist in your weight loss efforts.

Acupuncture and Alcohol Detoxification

According to the National Center for Statistics and Analysis, nearly 88,000 people die from alcohol-related deaths every year, which makes alcohol the fourth leading preventable cause of death in the United States. After all the research that has been done on alcohol, people in the United States are still dying from something completely legal. And ultimately, we are paying for it, not just with our lives, but also with our tax dollars. continue reading
