I was a client of Jaret's for a little over a year until I moved out of state :(
I started seeing him with a nagging pain in my middle back that was preventing me from being able to lift objects with my right arm. I had a history of back and neck pain from a car accident years ago and spent a lot of time getting adjusted by a chiropractor, which never solved my problem. So I decided to try acupuncture- and I loved it.
Jaret listened to all of my problems and worked hard to help with all of them- from my back pain to the stress of not being able to find a job. I have never been more relaxed than when I was in their office.
He used a variety of methods to solve my back problems and suggested different supplements that also helped with my multitude of complaints.
After years of traditional health care methods that never cured my ailments, I am confident that acupuncture can solve most health and mental issues. Jaret is the most intelligent, generous, and supportive practitioner I have ever met. I am thankful for the opportunity to receive treatment from Jaret and would recommend him to anyone! |

I have been going to Deb ever since she got out of school. She has been a life saver for me. I started seeing her for back pain. She did more in one visit than a chiropractor could in 6 months of treatments. Later I had a serious fall in which I broke a vertibrae in my back among other bones. She got it healed up much quicker than the orthopedic doctor believed possible. She has treated me for many other ailments mostly with excellent results.
She is very compassionate, excellent listener, and I find very painless. I can't thank her enough. Her and the whole staff at Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine Services. |

Let me just say that I was reluctant. Acupunture after all has the puncturing componant. But I had hurt my shoulder in a car accident and the pain was pretty systemic. Robin identified and addressed the problem and gently guided me back to physical health. Robin gently relieved my fear and shown me the path to good physical wellbeing.
While teeth clenching (TMJ) was threating to rearrange my teeth, Robin was and continues to be a vital source of relief for all of the symptoms, from headaches to ear ringing and sinus pressure.
A caring, gentle, and kind professional, Robin is making easier to live with the stress I keep dumping on myself. |

I have been seeing Jaret now for 8 years off and on. I have had problems ranging from sinus issues, back pain, and anxiety issues. Jaret is a very skilled, gentle, and compassionate practitioner. Through acupuncture, he has greatly improved the things that were ailing me. You wouldn't even know he was working with needles. It was virtually painless. Not only is he a great acupuncturist, a great listener, and he truly cares about what ails you and wants you to feel better. I would highly recommend acupuncture to anyone. |

I have lived with chronic shoulder pain for years and after seeing traditional doctors who just seemed confused by my problem, I sought the help of an acupuncturist about 12 years ago. This helped some but I wasn’t seeing the results I was hoping for. On the raving referral of a co-worker, I decided to give Robin a try. What a difference! Robin has an incredible gift of finding the source of a problem. There was a period of time when I could not move my arm more than 3” out from my side and had shooting pain in the outside of my shoulder. She amazed me by finding the source of the problem deep down, far away from the pain point. But by working the area she knew was the problem with acupuncture and massage, relief came. This is a chronic thing for me, so besides working out any specific problems I get from daily living and working, I continue to see Robin on a bi-weekly basis for maintenance on my shoulder (and I continue to give her challenges, but she rises to the occasion every time).
Not only do I walk away from each appointment with Robin feeling physically better, but emotionally better as well. She instills a calm in my life: from her demeanor, from her practices, from the simple act of listening to my problems, both physical and emotional, and from the knowledge that I don’t have to wake up in the middle of the night in pain.
I have recommended Robin to multiple people, all who have found her to be a useful source in their medical regimen. Acupuncture is a wonderful thing – the conditions it can help are endless. Finding an acupuncturist like Robin? Amazing. |

I had been seeing Robin weekly for 3-4 years. For the type of work I do and the damage 15+ years of neglect, it was a tough task for her.
I do feel much better these days, and the weekly sessions keep me going with more energy and productivity. You can never spend too much on yourself and Robin's service is worth every penny and much more.
Of course change takes courage, but don't you ever wonder when you will clean out that closet or storage room? Imagine that as the work Robin did for me, physically and mentally. |

I've been a client of AOMS for almost a decade! Robin is my provider, and I have also received healthful tips from Jaret and Debra over the years.
I originally sought out Robin for relief from hypertension and under her care my blood pressure dropped about 8 points within a few months. That was nine years ago and little did I know the journey was only beginning!
After my 12 year rugby career came to halt with several bulging discs, I accepted as normal the chronic back pain, muscle spasms, and golf ball size knot in the back of my neck. I had been told by others that I would never be able to run again, and it was more or less true. At that point in time I was able to jog slowly for about two miles and the price tag was hefty - after a jog the back spasms and neck pain would flare up for several days. Due to the pain, my activity level was dropping and body weight was increasing. It was a slippery slope and probably contributed to my high blood pressure. Then I sought help.
It had never occurred to me that regular acupuncture and massage therapy would become my own personal fountain of youth. Robin has systematically addressed my injuries and has turned me into a more flexible, stronger, and faster version of the man I was 10 years ago. I truly believe that without acupuncture I would not be able to make that statement!
Under Robins' tailored care my overall health has improved, particularly my soft tissue health. Every two weeks I see Robin for a tune up. Knowing I have Robins' support, I am able to physically push myself. Among other activities, I regularly run 4-5 miles at a much brisker pace than I ever did as a youth - with no pain. Robin also guided me into a basic stretching regimen that helps support my increased activity.
And that golf ball sized knot in my neck? It's now the size of a small almond and if Robin didn't joke about it every once in a while after my massage I wouldn't even know that it's there. I hope you enjoyed 'my story'. If you are considering acupuncture, I highly recommend AOMS.
