http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Understanding Illness from a Chinese Medicine Perspective
Not only is Ben's expertise as an acupuncturist and herbalist impressive and effective, but his willingness to take the time to help me understand my symptoms has been very helpful. He is a good teacher and offers wise counsel in an unassuming and gentle way.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035My hemifacial spasm has disappeared with Ben's herbs.Facial twirch
Ben is an expert diagnostician and herbalist. After several weeks of his herbal prescription, my facial twitch disappeared. Also, his acupuncture eased my plantar facsiitis, and his partner Masako gave good advice along the way. I’d never done Chinese medicine but the results are undeniably positive--and, at this clinic, inexpensive. You'll be glad if you visit People's!

I was very pleased with Ben and the work he did. He is very knowledgeable and compassionate. I am confident that I will be feeling better in no time with his treatment. I would gladly recommend The People's Acupuncture to many friends and relatives in need of care.

Ben is treating me with acupuncture for stress reduction. I felt relief right after my first appointment, and now I really look forward to my sessions because I know I'll feel centered and balanced for the rest of the day. I'm so grateful to Ben for providing such care and relief.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Highly recommended, affordable and high quality...
I am grateful to both Masako and Ben for their assistance and care throughout the years. I recently had an infection that was immediately healed through acupuncture and the herbs I received. Ben and Masako are genuine healers and are both gifted Acupuncturists. I am always aware of the increased energy I have after being treated. This is both an affordable and effective route to take. I am very grateful they are in Amherst.

I have been seeing Ben for several years and see him as my primary care doctor. I have been treated for a range of conditions: pain, sleep problems, stress and so forth. I sprained my knee in the fall and his treatment and care was beyond my wildest imaginings! I felt very cared for and I know he really meant it. He is deeply invested in the well-being of his clients. I've never felt that with any other medical professional. Thanks, Ben.

The treatment I receive at The People's Acupuncture Clinic is always helpful emotionally as well as physically. In addition to being a skillful practitioner, Ben consistently offers me good counsel with regard to diet and exercise to improve my condition.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Always makes me feel better
Visiting People's Accupuncture is renewing on many levels. Both clinicians are present and warm, their work has been very effective for my otherwise intractible issues and I feel so happy to support their mission to provide care to those who can and those who can't afford regularly priced acupuncture. Friendly connection, health and social justice- who could ask for anything more? I've been to many acupuncturists, and these are the ones I have been recommending people go to for years.

Another excellent session. Ben listens so well even at the end of what had been a long and busy day. Suggestions of some diet shifts to help my sinus "drips" will work I am sure. Acupuncture keeps one's immune system strong I am sure with Ben's healing and skillful treatments. Thank you Ben. I tell friends about him often.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Quality of life
Ben listens for details that you wouldn't imagine to have any significance for diagnose. For participating in one's own healing, he personalizes advice about nutrition and lifestyle. Chinese herbs are a good way to support treatment at home. Acupuncture has seen me though emotional stress, infection, vertigo, digestive problems a broken wrist and tendon surgery. It's made it possible to get back on track and avoid serious illness. I always get a tuneup when the seasons change.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Best way to stay healthy!
I've been getting acupuncture treatments regularly from Ben for the past four years. It keeps my immune system in tune. A year ago I developed a Baker's cyst behind my knee - orthopod said it would take two years of being careful to heal it. With Ben's treatments it was manageable in several weeks and completely gone in a few months. I refer friends and they are all enthusiastic. Try brewing up some of Ben's Chinese herbal wines too!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035It Worked For Me
For over 2 years I suffered from acute lower back pain caused by disc and other problems. Saw 4 back surgeons, had injections and took pills. Nothing stopped the pain. Finally I tried acupuncture with Ben and I have been just about pain free for over 2 months now. Wish I had tried it sooner.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035So very grateful
What I love about Ben's treatments is everything. But, what I want to comment on is how I appreciate that he never labels me or my condition. I find medical labels very constricting, and I am often scared and confused when in sterile examination rooms. When I am in my recliner at PAC I find that I am doing some serious healing on all levels, not just physically. To be allowed this is a great gift, and I am so grateful.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Feeling great
I began treatments sometime in October because I was tired and not sleeping well. I felt out of balance, my digestive system wasn't functioning properly and my weight was increasing. After my first treatment, I noticed an increase in my energy and began sleeping better. I continue to make progress; between the treatments and some coaching I'm even losing weight. I'm feeling better than I have in a long time. Thank you Ben!

I had a lingering migraine for over 2 weeks. Stronger and stronger prescription meds & MRI did not take care of it. I finally came to Ben and after 2 sessions, my migraines were gone. Ben was excellent at finding out where my problem was, and I was totally impressed. Not only is he a great healer, but he is also an excellent teacher - explaining to me what was wrong and what I could do to help improve the condition.

Though I am relatively new to acupuncture, it didnt take me long to see how healing the sessions are. I've sought Ben's help with shoulder, knee, and digestion problems and in each case have had excellent results. Ben is calm and thorough in his approach, and he brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the healing process. He is without question a gifted healer.

I've been coming to Ben for about a year and have always been extremely impressed with how quickly the therapy works. I've been to several acupuncturists over the years, but never noticed that it helped me much, but Ben and Masako do something that keeps me coming back. He's helped me with dizziness, anxiety, stress, a large hematoma when i fell of my horse, headaches... you name it! This is definitely my go-to place when I need help balancing energy and pain in my body.

In addition to being skilled and knowledgeable practitioners, Ben and Masako also offer helpful information regarding diet, exercise, and herbs as treatment.

I have never been to an accupunturist before and was greatly surprised at the level of professionalism that Ben had and the amount of information given. I have been suffering with back and knee pain for many years and finally got some relief even if for a short period of time. Would recomend him to anyone who has pain and has not been able to get relief.

Ben is an incredible healer, that is so gentle, caring & I can’t begin to thank him enough after every treatment. I am on my way to better health and I look forward to every treatment as I know it truly works. Living with less pain and even have more energy. My only regret - I wish I had tried acupuncture yrs ago. If you’re hesitant, don’t be. It doesn’t hurt. Help yourself now to a healthy & happier life & make an appointment. EXCELLENT HEALING CARE that is affordable. HIGHLY recommend.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Ahhhhhhhh so sweet!
It had been 4 years since my last treatment with another acupunturist and I had honestly forgot how awesome it is. I must say Ben has a very soft entry style much nicer than my past experience, and I find it facinating that he can get results from just using extremities and your head. I'm looking forward to working with him in the future.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Great service, worth every penny
Masako listened to all of my questions and encouraged me to ask more. I had a crick in my neck, and with a couple of needles in my lower leg Masako was able to relieve my pain. The recliners are comfortable, and I was able to relax even though there were other people in the room. I had a bad experience with an acupuncturist. He was 3 times the price and 1/16 the professional. If you question whether acupuncture is for you, this is a great place that will not break the bank.

Ben is an extremely wise healer. Not only has the acupuncture healed my menopause symptoms, sinus and allergy problems, and stress symptoms, he also helps to educate his patients about lifestyle changes we can make to help heal ourselves.

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035Goodbye to sinus infection
After each of two colds this year, I developed horrible sinus infections. An antibiotic helped the first time, but I decided that I had had enough antibiotics for one year. I had to take another to ward off Lyme's Disease so when a friend told me about Ben I decided to try his method. After 10 days the infection has gone, my energy is back and my hope is that this treatment will strengthen my immune system and the constant drips will stay away. Thank you Ben.

After several years of digestive problems, tests, misdiagnosis, more tests, and no relief, I was finally told I had IBS. Nothing I tried made it better and I was sick all the time. I decided to try acupuncture and I was referred to Ben by a family member. I will be forever grateful for the way it changed my life. After just a few weeks of treatments, I began to feel better and now I feel good all the time! I have recommended PAC to many already and will continue to do so. Thanks Ben!

http://www.genbook.com/bookings/slot/reservation/30105035BEST ACUPUNCTURE EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD
I went to PAC with a sense of doubt as I had recently seen an acpctr for 6 months to address my issues with no resolve. The 1st thing that got my attention was Ben's recommendation that I start with Chinese herbs, as that it what I had suggested to my prior acupunturist to no avail. After my 1st tx my 2nd presenting issue(my R knee) feels almost normal for the first time in 3yrs and my 1st issue is improving daily. Am telling evryone I know!

I have been seeing Ben for over a year and have come to rely on his help, wisdom and giving nature.

I have been to The People's Acupuncture Clinic for two different issues. Ben and Masako are both caring, great listeners, and have a calming way about them. And, most importantly, their treatments work - acupuncture for achilles tendonitis and herbal medicines for tinnitus. Still working on the tinnitus but it's been less than two weeks and already there is improvement.

I look forward each and every time I go to a session with Ben. This last experience I had injured my foot especially two toes when I told Ben this he proceeded to administer his knowledge of pain relief with his needles and then offered to use a herbal spray I can't describe the relief I felt. Don't hesitate to experience this method of healing.

I first went to the clinic about a year and a half ago for help getting off the medicines I was using to treat my asthma (I was having really problematic side-effects from using inhaled steroids). I only went a few times, but the treatment was really effective. I have not had to use inhaled steroids since and my asthma has been much more manageable. Now I am back for treatment of frozen shoulder. I highly recommend the clinic.

I have been going to the clinic since last Nov. to help manage a chronic autoimmune illness. This was my first experience with acupuncture and I don't know where I would be without it. It has helped greatly in managing my joint pain, asthma symptoms, fatigue, as well as a host of other symptoms. I have also learned quite about about nutrition in healing from speaking with Ben and Masako. I am always treated with the utmost respect and compassion. I recommend this clnic to everyone I know.

I was treated for severe menopausal symptoms that made me nauseated and dizzy in the summer heat and unable to get a full night's sleep for months. After 3 weeks of treatments, I was literally healed. I was comfortable outside and felt much calmer and cooler. And the treatment itself is so calming and relaxing, I always nap. I've recommended them to many of my friends, for all kinds of ailments. And I leaned about them from a friend, too. I can't recommend them highly enough!

Ben Feeley is a 'ministering angel'! He is very centered, sensitive and confidence inspiring. Classical music played as I relaxed in a comfortable recliner, kept warm with blanket and heat lamp on my exposed bare feet. I wasn't quite ready to leave when my treatment was done! Highly affordable. For anyone with reservations about being in the same room with other patients ... I hardly knew that others were there. Highly recommended.

What is so special to me about the care that Ben and Masako give, is their human quality of tending to the individual. My experiences with western care have been mixed, and I have rarely felt heard and understood in the way that they "listen" in their practice. Their philosophy of getting to know you, of affordability, of honor and respect is manifested in the method that they use. I have had chronic conditions helped by them without invasive or assaultive procedures. Highly recommend!

I had acupuncture for years before moving to the Valley - it was effective but costly. When I was looking for acupuncture here I was attracted to the holistic approach of the People's Acupuncture Clinic. They have exceeded my expectations. Ben and Masako are skilled practitioners. The Clinic also offers Chinese herbal medicines and classes on wellness and herbal remedies. Since the group method of treatment is less expensive I never hesitate making an appointment and I refer friends!
