Testimonial

Review By Our Satisfied Patient

  • "Dr. Gray is great. Very informative of the body and how the back reacts to things and he does more then evaluate you he gets to know you and asks you questions about you specifically and what you do professionally and personally so he can understand your history and what you have experienced. He also takes his time to adjust you and tries new things on visits and asks what you like and did not like and if something felt better or worse. The front desk staff is very friendly and helpful in scheduling and answering questions."
    Kenny W.
  • "I was in a car accident a couple weeks ago and felt like a pretzel after. I've seen Dr. Gray 4 times and not sure if I'd be sitting upright for longer than an hour without his adjustments. The office staff is warm and friendly and it is immaculate. Dr. Gray listens to you and makes sure you are comfortable at all times. He is awesome!"
    Sabrina R.
  • "I came in for acupuncture in 2019, after I'd been having severe back pain following a car accident. I don't remember the name of my acupuncturist anymore since this was two years ago now, but after the first session with her I felt a major improvement in my pain levels. For about 6 months I had woken up every day hoping the pain would be gone and it was such a relief to find a treatment that actually helped. She also provided some other cool treatments that I'd never heard of being used with acupuncture (I think it was infrared light and some form of TENS connection). I've been recommending acupuncture to my friends and family ever since."
    Lauren G.
