The Story of Community Acupuncture

What You Think Acupuncture Feels Like vs. What It Actually Feels Like

Allergy Clearing Wonder

My son has suffered from cat allergies most of his life. I have had my cat for 15 years so she has always been with him, (and me for a long time!) at our old house I pulled up all the carpet, kept her out of his room and she was outside a lot in order to make sure I could make everyone healthy and happy.
When we made our move to victoria we had to leave our cat with a family member because the apartment was too small to have them both in there together and it would mean she would be an indoor cat, we were devastated.
When I heard about Stillpoint Community Acupuncture Allergy clearing treatment I thought what do I have to lose!? I brought in a sample of the cat hair and my son. And I am so happy to say that she is home with us where she belongs getting lots of snuggles from my son which was always a struggle before. Not to mention we also cleared my boyfriends allergies as well to cats which he’s had for 34 years! Thank you so much Jean Paul and Stillpoint Community Acupuncture! This couldn’t have happened without you. -B.L.

I have been having acupuncture at the Stillpoint Acupuncture Community Clinic in Langford for several years now. I highly recommend having acupuncture in order to relieve stress, overcome insomnia and taking away general pain in joints.

I have arthritis in my fingers and feet and have noticed a huge amount of relief of pain after I attend several sessions of acupuncture. I also feel refreshed and stress free when I finish a session with Jean-Paul and with Jenica, the two practicioners at Stillpoint.

They are caring individuals who obviously want the well being of their patients and are always careful to listen to each person’s needs and are wonderful to deal with.

This summer I was fortunate enough to visit Stillpoint in the hopes of finding relief from my vertigo. It had become very life changing for me and I was extremely frustrated. The nausea and constant feeling of motion was, in my opinion, extreme. Three treatments later and I was vertigo free!!! I encourage any and all to visit their locations in Langford and VicWest at your convenience. I am currently seeing Stillpoint for SI related pain and after my treatment today I am 50% more pain free. -E.W.

Lower Back Pain – Effective

Following nerve damage operation I required acupuncture treatment for balance and it helped immeasurably. Low back pain treatment was effective and both pleasant and relaxing. I also recommend the treatment for anyone. D.G.

Depression, anxiety, insomnia and digestive problem – Restorative

JEAN-PAUL has been treating me for depression, anxiety, insomnia and digestive problems, very successfully. Who knew acupuncture could be so versatile, yet painless? JEAN-PAUL is very empathetic and genuinely caring of his patients. A visit with him is a very restorative experience. V.H.

Neck and back problems – Caring and gentle

Years back I fell down a flight of stairs on my back and with my legs straddling a 4×4 post. I thought I would never walk again. Consequently I have had trouble with my neck and back. of and on ever since. Jean Paul has done wonders for me. He is such a gentle and caring man. I have had acupuncture else where and it did nothing for me. Jean Paul is such a caring and gentle man. When my treatments are finished I am on cloud 9. I have never met such a caring and gentle man.

Chronic Pain – Healing

I have spent many years suffering from chronic pain and fatigue and began acupuncture treatments with Jean Paul after trying many other approaches. Much to my surprise, my condition began to improve. Not only did my pain decrease, I began sleeping better, my depression began to lift, and my energy level increased. Jean Paul is a caring and compassionate practitioner. He brings to the table his many years of experience in acupuncture as well as many other healing modalities. I am looking forward to many more treatments and would highly recommend him to anyone suffering from chronic pain. S.P.

Carpel Tunnel and Allergies – Very Recommended!

I initially came to see Jean-Paul for help with carpal tunnel and seasonal allergies. I found his treatments helped not only with the mentioned ailments but also with my overall energy levels. The sessions left me feeling calm and balanced yet more energized at the same time. I found him to be caring in his approach, professional in his manner and thorough in his explanation of the process of acupuncture. I would highly recommend him. J.B.

Acu-Magic!

You’re still magicians to me, especially when you go for a twofer poke and KOH. G.H.

Foot Pain – Lasting Effects

Dear Jean Paul

Thank you so much for your special and unique skills in acupuncture. Not only have your treatments been comfortable and completely without pain, they have been very effective. As you know I have suffered foot pain for many years. After only 3 treatments I am completely free of pain and the effects have lasted. It is so wonderful to be able to walk wherever I wish.

I also want to thank you on behalf so many of my friends. Everyone I have referred to you has reported marvellous results. It is a very satisfying feeling to know I have been of benefit to them in this way.

From Donna:

I came to Stillpoint 2 years after sustaining a second neck injury. My symptoms were severe dizziness and anxiety, pain, nausea, vomiting. My nervous system was so wired up, I would wake up shaking so hard and with such anxiety, I didn’t know how I would get out of bed never mind how I would get through the day. I lost 30 pounds because I was so nauseous I couldn’t eat, I could only drink chicken broth. I couldn’t walk my dog nor drive. We even had to sell our house and move to be closer to family to take care of me. That’s when I heard of Stillpoint. I was reluctant because I had the same acupuncturist for almost 30 years. I was doubtful anyone could really understand how bad I felt never mind how to fix it. Now a little more than 6 months and 12 or so treatments (I felt relief after the first treatment) of Kruger therapy and acupuncture with Jean-Paul I am currently free of almost all of the symptoms. I am able to do everything I could pre-injury. This is me and India after a nice long walk around Royal Roads. Thank you for giving me my life back! #AfterStillpoint
