I'm a believer...

by Holisticgirl at Citysearch

I had had acupuncture before for lower back pain and it didn't do anything for me. When I came to Evolve it was through a referral and I'm so glad I did. Everyone in the office was really nice and very helpful. I met with John Simmonds and explained that I had tried acupuncture before and had not so great results...the treatment with him was SOOO much different! I walked out feeling very relaxed and the pain in my back was gone. I go on a weekly basis for maintenance and to prevent future pain and I don't know if I'll ever be able to NOT go! Good thing they take insurance! :)

• Pros: pain is no longer
• Cons: not a thing...

Amazing Acupuncture on the Westside

by SandraWiltshire at Citysearch

This was my first experience with Acupuncture. I have had five knee surgeries and am trying to get back into shape. Because of all the trauma to my knee, it tends to swell after my work-outs. I was referred to Evolve by a friend. The whole experience was great...John Convey explained everything he was going to do and what it would do for my body. It was as relaxing as a massage..you walk out of the room feeling very serene. That afternoon, the swelling had gone down in my knee and I headed to boot camp the next two days. My knee felt great during the work-outs! I look forward to being a patient at Evolve and utilizing the true purpose of Eastern Medicine...being proactive rather than reactive with my body. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to Evolve and the Eastern Medicine it practices.

Changed My Life!

by missingrecords at Citysearch

I found EVOLVE a couple of years ago when a co-worker recommended I try acupuncture for a running injury. I was marathon running at that time and I had an achilles tendon injury that was plaguing my training. I feel that I am a very open person but for some reason I was always a little weary of acupuncture. I'm not sure why, maybe it was the idea of needles or perhaps it was just becasue I knew so little about it. I didn't even think it was something you would go to for a sports injury but I gave it a try.

As I entered the office I was instantly met with a calming feeling. The office decor is very Zen and relaxed. My appointment was with founder John Convey and I let him know right away that I was a little usure about acupuncture but I wanted some relief from my nagging achilles injury. He instantly put me at ease by explaining what acupuncture is all about. The treatment was painless, the enviromnent was professional, hygenic and very comfortable.... and the results were profound.

I was pain free after just two sessions and have now incorporated acupuncture into my normal health routine. I have been going back to Evolve every 2-3 weeks or so for a visit for the past 2 years and I can honestly say that it's changed my life for the better. Not only physically but also spiritually. The process of acupuncture and REIKI opened up a path of enlightenment for me that has transformed how I live my life. I sleep better, I am happier, I have less aches and pains from running and office stress and I am more grounded. I am extremely grateful to John and the EVOLVE team for helping me with my own personal evolution. Give it a try you won't be disappointed.

Thank You EVOLVE!
