More energetic and content

“I love the way I was treated at Turning Point. I was treated like my concerns mattered. Turning Point staff has been nothing but professional and courteous! My experience with the medical field has been negative. At the first accupuncture treatment I was able to sleep soundly and when I got up, I was able to move better and pain free! Each treatment was beneficial to continue with freedom of movement and pain relief. Doctors prescribe pain relievers that have an adverse effect of not being able to think clearly or work properly. Accupuncture is a form of pain relief without negative effects. I feel more energetic and content! Thank you Turning Point! “

Warm, caring, and reliable

“Tom takes time to listen and is present with you. He cares and is attentive. The office staff is warm, caring and reliable. Tom is one of the few acupuncturists in town who does Japanese style acupuncture. It is gentle and effective. You’ll be glad you chose Turning Point Center.”

Delightful caring!

“I have seen Tom for acupuncture for many years and value his expertise and wisdom.  He is truly a healer of body and mind. I always feel energized and relaxed after a treatment and the long term effects are lasting. I would recommend Tom and his caring staff to anyone who is interested in acupuncture in a nurturing environment. Thanks to all at Turning Point!”

Compassionate Care

“When I first came to the Turning Point Center with injuries from an auto accident, I was experiencing chronic headaches, chest, neck and back pain, visual impairment, and dizziness and I needed assistance walking. Regularly scheduled visits with Tom and Janeen for acupuncture, moxibustion, herbs, and cranio-sacral therapy not only aided my recovery from the concussion and other injuries I sustained, but helped reduce the discomfort and stress I was experiencing throughout my whole body. I greatly benefited from their professional and compassionate care, and highly recommend their services.”

Pain cut in half after 20+ years

“Living with chronic pain has been a way of life for the past 20 plus years. I have seen doctor after doctor, taken drug after drug. I’ve done PT, massage, chiropractic; the list could go on and on.

Four months ago I called Turning Point. Since working with Tom and Laura my pain has gone from a daily 8/9 to a much more bearable 3/4. I started acupuncture with no expectations and now find myself hopeful that with continued treatment I can reduce my pain even more.

The entire staff is incredible–their positive, upbeat nature can’t help but make your day bright.

Much thanks to all of you!”

I woke up to the complete absence of pain!

“I was treated by Tom Williams for a painful rib condition caused by using a weed eater for an extended period of time. I could hardly bend over to tie my shoes.

This problem resisted several trips to the chiropractor, rest, massage, and plenty of pain pills. I had been hearing a lot of positive things about acupuncture, including the fact that some insurance companies were actually covering this form of therapy. While still somewhat skeptical, I felt I had little to lose by giving acupuncture a try. And, I was curious to see what a session was like.

So, I had one treatment which was interesting, but not an immediate relief. I left Tom’s office feeling pretty much the same as when I arrived.

The next day-SURPRISE-I woke up to the complete absence of pain. Not a trace! Amazing! Everything else I had tried had helped only a little, and certainly did not last. I was cured.”

You’ve been there for me every time

“As you know, Tom, I have come to see you for professional services on three separate sets of occasions. My visits date back to probably the early 1990’s, although you and I have known one another for much longer. Each time I wound up at your office for help, I received exactly what I was looking for: relief from my problem. It was the same problem really, revisiting me over a period of fifteen years or so. With each episode, I doggedly pursued relief through the modalities that I practice and promote–chiropractic and homeopathy. I also wore out a few massage therapists, until finally I had to admit to myself, ‘This is clearly an energetic problem of mysterious origin, and if I were my own patient, I would have referred myself to Tom by now!’

And sure enough, each episode of severe discomfort was brought swiftly to a close within just a few treatments. (I could usually tell by the end of the first treatment with you that things were going to resolve.) At which point I would solemnly vow to myself to remember you first, should the problem recur.

So many years pass between each occurrence that I can forgive myself for forgetting your talents; the point is, you’ve been there for me every time, in a totally receptive, caring, and effective way! Your knowledge and style and service orientation all add up to a tremendous resource for this community. I count myself a very lucky guy, because I have you over all these years as both a friend and a skilled practitioner. Thanks Tom!”
