Testimonials
A really good first contact… Paul puts the patient at ease immediately.
“Paul is a wonderful listener…puts you at ease immediately and helps you focus by explaining what it is you hope to accomplish, your previous experience with acupuncture, and how many visits you are willing to commit to the treatment plan.” -Joyce Justus
Paul always has an answer.
“I’ve been a client of Paul Gamache for almost a year now here in San Diego, and he always seems to have the perfect fit for my issues. He listens, and is so familiar with the body and his practice that I find success each time that I step out of his office.” -Tracy Kappen
A healer.
“Paul has helped me with a number of serious health issues. Eight years ago I experienced a traumatic rock climbing accident. I broke my back in 5 places and have more than a little titanium hardware in my back to secure 16 inches of spinal fusion. I also had reconstructive surgery on my right wrist and hand as well as my right ankle. Paul has treated me with acupuncture and herbs for a wide range of issues such as scar tissue prevention, inflammation, chronic pain management, body symmetry, and mental health- all resulting from the fall. I suffered for years before finding Paul and now I am able to live a more active lifestyle with little pain.
I encourage anybody curious about acupuncture and/or herbal treatment benefits to consult with Paul to see what he can offer as he has been truly talented in treating all my ailments.” -Casey Connors
If you have any doubts…
“Paul’s treatments are useful for a variety of symptoms. This past week I went and saw him because I had a pulled muscle in my back one day and then later on in the week because I was experiencing fatigue. So while acupuncture is not suitable for every ailment you are experiencing, it probably can help you in areas that you hadn’t even considered. Paul is very knowledgeable and will guide you to wellness. Proceed with confidence.” -Rick Itzkowich
Excellence.
“Paul is professional and authentically compassionate. His eagerness to expand his knowledge of medicine is both comforting and inspiring. He is both an excellent acupuncturist and herbalist (not easy to be skilled at both). Highly recommended.” -Jared Andersen, L.Ac.
Thoughtful analysis.. gets results.. gives you a plan..
“I got a little over active on a recent trip to La Jolla, resulting in a flare-up of bursitis, tendonitis, and some other issues.. My meetings with Paul resulted in rapidly improving comfort level, greater range of motion, and a long term plan that makes sense for broken down 50 yr old like me – trying to stay young.. I am grateful. ps – This was a 1st time experience for me (w/ Acupuncture) and I’m a believer. As a speed/agility trainer, I confidently recommend Paul’s treatment for athletes.” -Patrick Haley
Great knowledge of herbs.
“I recently dislocated and fractured my wrist and had to get surgery. Before I went in to get cut open I saw Paul and he gave me an awesome blend of herbs that helped me stay away from the nasty pain meds you get before and after surgery. He also did some acupuncture and A.R.T. on my wrist and forearm that after a few weeks of non-use had tensioned up. After my surgery I saw Paul again to get another blend of herbs that really helped to calm me down, relax my muscles, and help with pain. Thanks again Paul!” -Brent Thiele
Time well spent!
“Paul is terrific. He is a great listener, and I always feel 100 times better after a treatment. My energy level is improving and he has been instrumental in helping me work through a sports related injury so I can continue to train and be active. Thanks Paul!” -Kristina Larsen
First time believer.
“I walked into Paul’s office with with 3 major symptoms. I had excruciating lower back pain, neck pain, and left knee pain. I was reluctant to tell Paul, thinking that was too many problems to lay on any acupuntcurist. After letting him know the symptoms, I proceeded with my first treatment. The pressure and heat were so relaxing I actually fell asleep. When I woke up my pain was gone. Paul then showed me some preventative exercises to keep me pain free. I am now a believer. Thanks Paul!” -Miles Coleman
A new life.
“Paul gave me my life back. I had been diagnosed with RAD (Reactive Airway Disease) by a pulmonary specialist. The only way to describe the condition is to visualize the sensation of breathing through a straw. I came to see Paul under great stress with pronounced breathing issues. Paul gave me a thorough examination and treated me with a tincture spray on the spot. It was called Into Thin Air, a creation of Paul’s. I continued to take the tincture in the form of a liquid and a spray. Over the next four months my breathing improved. I will never forget the day I began to breathe normally. The change from the sensation of breathing through a straw to breathing normally is dramatic. It is something that is apparent in the first instant. The first time, the sensation lasted for one hour. I was thrilled to be able to breathe normally, if only for a short time. The second time, the sensation lasted for a longer time. The third time I began to breathe normally, with no change. Over time, I continued with the tincture, on an as needed basis, increasing the dosage when I get a cold. RAD can lead to COPD, a progressive and terminal condition. Thanks to Paul for providing his quality alternative medicine in San Diego , I am emotionally and physically reborn. -Susanne Connors
