    Highly Satisfied

    I came to Paul with a strained quad muscle from a workout injury. I could not do basic workout exercises due to the pain. I was 100 percent back to normal activities after a couple sessions. Paul has healing hands & is extremely skilled & knowledgeable. I highly recommend!

    Paul relieves pain!

    This is my first acupuncture experience. In 8 sessions, pain has been eased; message is the best part; herbal supplement is calming; salve is soothing. I highly recommend Paul Gamache, his therapies and his manner.

    Knowledge and Application = Wellness

    I've been seeing Paul for nearly 2 years now when needed. As a fitness trainer I'm always active, constantly moving and always around people.Throw in an active lifestyle and you're bound to have some aches and pains along the way. The one person I trust and recommend to all of my clients, family and friends is Paul. Paul is one of the most knowledgeable health and wellness people I know. Simply the best!!!

    Great First Experience

    I really enjoyed my initial visit with Paul G. The office was professional and I was met quickly. After discussing my issue (achilles tendonitis) Paul clearly explained the process, methods and our goals. After an hour on the table he recapped what he found and how he treated it. He provided short and long term plans to correct the issue. I was happy to learn that Paul is a nutrition buff and we chatted about foods and diet that may assist in relieving inflammation.

    There's hope in gifted hands.

    Paul came highly recommended. After 3 mo. of not working out, not being playful with my son, and much more, I was desperate and sad. Consistent pain diminishes one's quality of life so we seek help. Help is what I got from Paul. I am moving more freely and with less discomfort. Low back pain is tragic. I hope this new relationship and treatment will make me the strong person I know I am. Thank you for your patience, understanding and knowledge.

    Paul ROCKS!

    Paul helped me a TON with my Plantar Fasciitis. I didn't think it would ever go away but he fixed it with his magic hands and magic needles!! He also helped me with my night sweats AND pre- and post back surgery. He was so attentive to my needs and he was really nice about checking in on me after my surgery. That meant a lot! My own doctor didn't even do that! Paul ROCKS!!

    Changed my Life!

    I have had a chronic shoulder issue for years. Overuse and imbalance caused by my job. I figured I was just going to have to learn to live with it, until i met Paul. My shoulder problem is not existent anymore. Thank you Paul!

    Feeling Better

    I have suffered from shoulder pain for a couple years now. I was certain that I faced shoulder surgery as the solution to the pain. After a couple treatments with Paul I feel a new sense of hope that I can be pain free without surgery. He has put together a plan I can believe in to heal something I thought would never heal. Thank you Paul.

    Very Thorough

    I had my initial appt with Paul for a chronic problem with my hand. He was quite thorough and shows a genuine caring and interest in assessing the "whole person" to fix the problem. I have some hope that after two years, I have the best chance at overcoming the challenges with my hand. Thank you Paul!

    Feeling much better now.

    I've visited Paul before and had good results so when I had a new but related problem I went back. As before it was very helpful and I felt better right away. Thanks Paul!

    More than satisfied

    Despite my prior avoidance of doctors, Paul manages to foster an inviting experience that I would almost describe as addicting! I have been seeing him in regards to my chronic hamstring pain. The pain has subsided dramatically, and my movement on the volleyball court is less inhibited. He is always so holistic in approach, and I've learned so much about my overall body functioning. Thank you so much Paul!!

    A first

    I asked Paul to help me with a worsening searing pain in my upper back, adjacent to my shoulder blade. He noticed a rib was " out". The moment he stuck the needle in the overlying skin, my rib popped back " in". It was crazy! But it felt better immediately. He then gave me exercises to do. Not easy to do, but I'm doing it. I am still sore, but so much better. I'm guessing it will take a few more sessions and some stabilization exercises to keep it from happening again. Thanks, Paul!!!!

    Kind, caring, and wise

    Had my first appointment. I thought he listened well, showed a lot of patience and concern, and I liked his wide range of treatments and exercises. Looking forward to return visits.

    Paul really knows his stuff! I've done acupuncture before but never as thorough as with Paul. My back already feels so much better after just one session. :-)

    Relief and Hope!

    I feel better after only one treatment. Paul is a good listener and very professional. I have full confidence in his abilities and I am so glad he was recommended to me.

    Go see Paul !!

    Paul helped me overcome many nagging injuries - from a very painful IT band that kept me from running for atleast 6 weeks, to shoulder pain, back pain, the common cold you name it! Paul was there to speed my recovery!! I check-in with Paul about one a week, as I always have nagging muscle soreness that he works on! Thanks Paul!!

    Healing and Recovery

    I was recently struck by a car as a pedestrian while crossing the street. Paul has been instrumental in helping me through this very difficult time. His in depth knowledge of the body and mind connection with regards to healing is impressive. How he administers his treatment has helped me make great progress with my injuries. Paul has been a God send. I trust him, and would recommend him to anyone. I appreciate you, Paul!!

    Paul knows his craft!

    I've been plagued for years with eczema, sometimes severely, and been to other acupuncturists. Paul is not only an adroit practitioner, but is also a very knowledgeable herbalist; he harvests many of them himself ! What I think makes him extraordinary is he constantly adjusts his treatment and prescription to how I am progressing as a patient. .He's a solid technician and a caring, gifted healer. He rocks.I stopped seeing Paul 6 months ago and continue to be 100% eczema free.

    Constant improvement

    Missed a few weeks, and I could tell. So it was back to Paul for treatment for the Achilles, Shoulder and some A.R.T. for the legs. 1 hour makes a heck of a difference. Back to more regular visits now.

    Range of Motion Improved

    As an athlete (Olympic weightlifter, mountain bike racer and CrossFitter), range of motion is incredibly important to maintaining longevity in all my pursuits. I visited Dr. Gamache after failing to get relief of some shoulder issues that have been plaguing me for a while. Dr. Gamache personally returned my initial call and talked to me about my concerns. Prior to giving me my first-ever acupuncture treatment, he thoroughly explained the procedure and put me at ease.

    Sweet Relief

    Suffering from a intense headache for 3 days...nothing would work. Was able to get an appointment with Paul in a quick and timely manner. Now my headache is gone.....whew!!! Thanks paul.

    Good from a 13 yr. old

    I thought it was going to hurt but to my son's surprise it was a breeze and did not hurt him at all. My son is actually excited about having his foot feeling better soon!

    First Session to help with heel and ankle problems

    Paul spent a lot of time listening and asked lots of questions to help ascertain what may be going on. He did some ART and acupuncture as well as recommending some stretches and herbs. I'm feeling much better now and am optimistic about my recovery.

    soccer player

    my players were injured as a result of playing some very competitive soccer games and we thought they would be out for a long time BUT Paul, with his knowledge and experience on this field, was able to get them back onto the field really fast. the boys truly appreciate your help. Thank you so much.

    First session on A.R.T. and Acupuncture

    Still recovering from 2 ruptured achilles and constant tight calf muscles I followed my sons recommendation to visit Paul, to see if A.R.T. could help as well as some Acupuncture thrown in for good measure. Paul also reviewed my daily stretching and excercise routine and told me what to add, throw out and keep. I am looking forward to my next visits, as well as charting the progress. So far, very impressed with Paul and the amount of time he spent with me.

    Lymphatic system

    Paul was great with my daughter Nathalie. She had been suffering with a severely swollen lymph node for a month. Paul treated her with acupuncture and put her on herbs to help flush her system. He was incredibly gentle and through. She is already feeling some relief. Thanks Paul!

    New Experience

    Amazing experience to balance the body energy and improve the performance during the day. Although still only on first session, I've enjoyed the idea of trust on natural healing.

    As an athlete himself..

    As an athlete himself, Paul understands how suborn we can be, especially with big races fast approaching and a new season getting underway and is willing to work with us under these less than ideal circumstances. His commitment to his clients via simple check-ins, reminders and follow-ups, along with his own unique personal touch is unlike any practitioner i have worked with. I am always quick to recommend Paul to any of my athletes - so long as they don't take my appointment slot!

    Paul is fantastic

    Paul has been incredibly kind and helpful in getting me back on my bike after a pretty nasty crash. His expertise and serene manner have been invaluable in the healing process. Thank you so much Paul! I would recommend him to anyone - especially athletes - if only I lived closer!

    Paul is Very Professional

    Paul is very focused and he gets to the solving the problem immediately. In my case it was Sciatic Nerve Pain ....only after two visits, Paul with acupuncture and his stretching techniques has made me walk normally again without pain. Thank you Paul.

    Paul is the BEST

    I would recommend Paul on a number of different levels. Not only is he amazing at treating sports and body mechanic issues, he is also very gifted at treating internal ailments. My son suffered from blood sugar issues and Paul helped to balance his system out. Additionally both my children suffered from chronic respiratory infections. Through treatment and herbs Paul was able to boost their immune systems and keep them healthy, even through a wicked flu season. I would recommend Paul to a

    Amazing!

    I went to see Paul for a variety of reasons. I decided it was time to feel better, physically and emotionally. After only 2 treatments, i feel so much better. I'm already looking forward to more treatments. The treatment room is so calming! Treat yourself to some acupuncture with Paul and you will also feel better.

    Want to feel better right away?

    Acupuncture is a great way to improve your health. Whether you are in pain or would rather just get a boost it can help. I visited Paul yesterday and had an issue with a pulled muscle in my glut. He treated it and I feel infinitely better today

    Feel Good

    I want to say that I was very afraid of needles before I went in but I am glad I did my achilles feels much better than it has in the past 2.5 months! I never really new about acupuncture until someone reccomended it to me and I am glad I took their advice!

    great knowledge of herbs and an excellent acupuncturist

    I recently dislocated and fractured my wrist and had to get surgery on it, before i went in to get cut open i saw Paul and he gave me an awesome blend of herbs that helped me stray away from the nasty pain meds you get after surgery and he also did some acupuncture and massage on my wrist and forearm that after a few weeks of none use had tensioned up. After my surgery i saw Paul again to get another blend of herbs that really helps to calm you down and relax muscles. Thanks again Paul!

    thoughtful analysis.. gets results.. gives you a plan..

    I got a little over active on a recent trip to La Jolla, resulting in a flare-up of bursitis, tendonitis, and some other issues.. My meetings with Paul resulted in rapidly improving comfort level, greater range of motion, and a long term plan that makes sense for broken down 50 yr old like me - trying to stay young.. I am grateful. ps - This was a 1st time experience for me (w/ Acupuncture) and I'm a believer. As a speed/agility trainer, I confidently recommend Paul's treatment for athletes.

    Immediate Results

    I started to feel better after my first visit. I have a bad back and the combination of accupunture and specific stretching got me re-oriented and feeling better. I can't wait to see how I feel after multiple sessions.

  • 5

    If you have any doubts

    Paul's treatments are useful for a variety of symptoms. This past week I went and saw him because I had a pulled muscle in my back one day and then later on in the week because I was experiencing fatigue. So while acupuncture is not suitable for every ailment you are experiencing, it probably can help you in areas that you hadn't even considered. Paul is very knowledgeable and will guide you to wellness. Proceed with confidence

    Improving Rang of Motion

    I Recently saw Paul after getting surgery on my shoulder for a type 4 AC separation, i went in and we were going to work on my range of motion. After doing a few exercises my shoulder seemed pretty tight, . After our session we tried the same exercises we did in the beginning and my ROM improved almost to were it was before i had hurt my shoulder. Pauls extensive knowledge of not only acupuncture but the use of supplements aswell has really helped my shoulder heal faster then it would have.

    Simply the BEST !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I went to my primary care physician to have him diagnose and treat my pain in my foot. He mis-diagnosed my condition and told me to stay off my feet and take ibuprofen. After 2-3 weeks, there was very little improvement. Paul offered to take a took at my condition. He took the time to understand the source of my pain and treated it appropriately. After one session, the pain has substantially subsided and I am feeling much better just after one day. Thank you Paul !!!

    Not just healing, but learning too.

    On my recent visit to Paul's office I learned that my chronic shoulder pain may have something to do with my poor posture. Paul taught me a few simple exercises that I could do twice a day. On the first try at this simple routine, there was measurable improvement in my posture. That is truly amazing, and I'm so glad to have learned that there was something that I could do at home, to help manage my pain.

    Great Acupuncture treatment

    I went to see Paul Gamache because I had tweaked my back. In addition I also had some minor recurring pain with my shoulder and my big toe. Paul did some testing and proceeded to do a very thorough treatment with me. The results were immediate. I felt great relief and also got some stretching exercises to help prevent some of the same condition in the future. Paul is professional, knowledgeable and very effective. I highly recommend him

    Excellence

    Paul is professional and authentically compassionate. His eagerness to expand his knowledge of medicine is both comforting and inspiring. He is both an excellent acupuncturist and herbalist (not easy to be skilled at both). Highly recommended.

    Paul always has an answer

    I've been a client of Paul Gamche for almost a year now, and he always seems to have the perfect fit for my issues. He listens, and is so familiar with the body and his practice that I find sucess each time that I step out of his office.

    A really good first contact..puts the patient at ease immediately

    Paul is a wonderful listener...puts you at ease immediately and helps you focus on explaining what it is you hope to accomplish, your previous experience with accupuncture, and how many visits you are willing to commit to the treatment plan

    First Time Believer...

    I walked into Paul's office with with 3 major symptoms. I had excruciating lower back pain, neck pain, and left knee pain. I was reluctant to tell Paul, thinking that was too many problems to lay on any acupunturist. After letting him know the symptoms, I proceeded with my first treatment. The pressure and heat were so relaxing I actually fell asleep. When I woke up my pain was gone. Paul then showed me some prevenative exercises to keep me pain free. I am now a believer. Thanks Paul!

    Paul is terrific. He is a great listener, and I always feel 100 times better after a treatment. My energy level is improving and he has been instrumental in helping me work through a sports related injury so I can continue to train and be active. Thanks Paul!
