Trouble Sleeping, Lower Back Pain, Ankle Pain

11/20/12: I first came to see Joshua at Integrative Acupuncture in August of 2010. In 1993, I had an L-5 fracture in my back, a broken ankle, and arthritis in both ankles. I also  suffered from severe insomnia.

I was treated by a neurologist and specialist in the past. I had also had back surgery, physical therapy and all of the above. I have never been to an acupuncturist before. before seeing Joshua, I had short term relief from pain. The doctors had prescribed me lots of pain medications and drugs.

 I was referred to Josuha from my brother who is a chiropractor and through his website. since seeing joshua, my sleeping is 80% percent better. Ankle pain to date is 75% percent more releif and my overall quality of life!  – Jim, 56 Saddle River

 Headaches and Depression

2/01/11: I first came in to see Joshua in Feburary of 2011. I suffered from severe headahces and depression for 20 plus years. I was sufferring at least fivce headaches per week. I have seen acupuncturists before but was recommended to jsohua through my physician. I had to rely on medications for my headaches the past 20 years. I have had great results! I find myself more energetic, more focused, and with less headaches! I am very pleased with the results. - Anton, Paramus

Severe Should, Neck, And Back Pain

I first came to this office in May 2010 for severe shoulder, neck and back pain.   I have had it since February 2009 and it was more severe at that time.  I went to a physical therapist, orthopedist, and pain management specialist.  After seeing them, the pain did improve but only improved to a certain level.  I was referred to this office by Doctor  Baker. Ever since coming to acupuncture/cupping I have gotten much better regarding the pain in my neck, shoulders, and back.  Thank you Joshua, Amy,

Skin Condition

10/1/2010: I first came into Joshua’s office in late July of 2010.  I came in due to a skin condition which began in late November 2009.  It soon developed into a severe rash and spread over my entire body as oozing, bleeding, patches of skin.  It was determined to be an allergic reaction to genetically modified soy, which had been the mainstay of my diet for 20 years. In early June of 2010, I started working with my chiropractor on a body detox using supplements and physical and energetic adjustments.  A dermatologist took several biopsy and pathology results determined that it was “eczema”.  The dermatologist wanted me on a course of steroids which I declined.  The results were dismal.  The condition continued to develop and spread a constant surface itch which was introduced to the mix.  I first met Joshua through the Meet-Up group that he started for “Chinese Herbal Healing”.  I was impressed by his knowledge of the art and his passion for healing.  The results have been PHENOMONAL.  Immediately after the first session, it felt as if a switch had been turned off.  The weekly, then daily, improvement of my overall condition has been dramatic.  In only three month time, my body is 95% healed.  I am overjoyed to find a natural healing method that is fast, effortless, and extremely effective.  My next goal is to work on lowering my blood pressure at Integrative Acupuncture Center.  Thank you, Joshua.  Ted

Insomnia, Stress, Anxiety

8/1/2010: I was suffering from insomnia for almost a year. I became irritable, stressed out, anxious and had the blah’s, not to mention exhaustion. When you are a mom of a two year old, this makes it even that much harder.I really appreciated the time and effort Joshua took in his diagnostic testing to not just treat the problem but find the underlying cause. He pinpointed the main issue with me, my adrenal glands were not functioning properly. By the 4th session, I started to notice I was calmer and more relaxed, not to mention, I started sleeping through the night!!!! I feel like a new woman….” Jen  - Ridgewood 41

Back Pain, Digestive Problems

6/8/2010:  “I was so enamored with my first visit when you spent about 3 hours with me going over all my ailments. At that point I was not only in constant back pain but my menopausal symptoms were getting the best of me along with my digestive problems. About two weeks after my first visit the hot flashes and night sweats were pretty much gone and I was sleeping better. The digestive problems started tapering off and now finally I have had weeks without any back pain….” – Dina Fairlawn, 56

Lower Back Pain, Menstrual Cramps 2009: I came to this office for treatment of of my lower back pain. I was previously treated by pain management doctors receiving epidurals which did not work. After physical therapy I was still in pain. The pain management doctor referred me to Integrative Acupuncture Center. I have experienced improvement with the back pain and even in other areas such as my digestive system; migraines and even menstrual cramps.” – Barbara, Hawthorne 53

Lower Leg Pain

“I first started receiving acupuncture about 1 year ago for the burning and numbness that I had been experiencing in my lower legs.  I suffered with the severe pain for 3 years, and attempted treatment from orthopedists, neurologists and physical therapists, but they yielded no results.  It was suggested that I receive an injection in my spine, which is when I decided to try acupuncture as an alternative.  A friend of mine who is a patient of Josh’s recommended that I schedule a consultation with him, and that visit changed my life.  My results from acupuncture have been wonderful, even my worse days are significantly better than my best days prior to receiving acupuncture.  I feel great!” Janice , Washington Township  50
