Pain
"When I first met Ann Zimmerman of Middleway Medicine, I had been experiencing painful bursitis in both hips and extremely tight illio-tibal bands for over 8 months. I had already undergone weeks and months of anti-inflammatories, physical and chiropractic therapy, as well as injections in both hips. I was also unhappily relying on Advil and Advil p.m. to get me through the days and nights. I knew I could not continue this lifestyle any longer.

I had never had acupuncture treatments before and had no idea if it would help me, but at this stage I had tried everything else and went into my first appointment with an open mind. I was recommended to Middleway Medicine through my physical therapist.

From the moment I met Ann and the staff at Middleway Medicine, I was impressed with their friendliness, knowledge, professionalism and above all compassion, not only for me, but also for the whole acupuncture experience.

At the beginning of each appointment Ann would discuss with me any changes in my condition. She was also very in tuned to my mental state while coping with my condition as well. We discussed my pain levels at different times of the day, i.e., walking, sitting, standing, and sleeping. Ann also proved to be extremely knowledgeable and well informed regarding natural herb remedies to help me with pain and insomnia.

After eight acupuncture treatments, my IT bands are back to normal. My pain level has gone from an 8-9 out of a pain scale of 10 to a 2-3, and I am sleeping!!

Now with continued acupuncture treatments, learning more about natural herbs and slowly getting back into my yoga practice, I will be eventually pain free. I am again enjoying my morning walks and able to sit and read a book without having to get out of my chair every five minutes because of the aches and pains.

My whole experience with Middleway Medicine has been a very positive one. I would recommend them to anyone and have told all my friends and family how wonderful the team at Middleway Medicine has treated me."

“I wanted to be first in line to try Ann and Clark’s magic touch. I suffer with fibromayalgia, a crazy syndrome with lots of ups and downs, and they’ve helped me to keep the pain level down and enjoy more activities in my life. I’d tried acupuncture before but their method and intuitive touch was amazing, I felt improvement with every treatment. They’re truly talented practitioners dedicated to using their skills to help people feel better.”

“I’d never tried Traditional Chinese Medicine before but heck, I tried everything else, so I gave it a shot and have been blown away by my results. I no longer have any pain! I have more energy. I’ve been sleeping better. I feel wonderful. Clark’s treatment has been excellent. He’s efficient but also personal, kind and caring, the whole office is. I really appreciate all the information he gave me. He let me know I didn’t have to give things up to get healthy, but just had to be conscious of what I’m doing. It’s been a great experience.”

He helped me get to a point where I could manage everything and function again. He was incredibly knowledgeable, gentle and understanding. He genuinely wanted to help me get better. Middleway Medicine will be part of my life health plan!”

"For me, it's the kind of healthcare I've waited for my entire life. There's been 5 times now where I've walked into Middleway Medicine in horrible pain and walked out feeling fantastic. Ann is magic! She's simply amazing! I can't believe people aren't beating the door down to come see them. Every time I come to Middleway Medicine, no matter what's going on with me, they fix it. I can't tell you how much I appreciate them."

"As with many others, the decision to try acupuncture was a desperate, "last resort" effort seeking pain relief and freedom from daily pain medication. With hope, but few expectations, I turned to Middeway Medicine. I was happily astonished by the positive results experienced after two sessions. Equally healing has been the calm, unhurried atmosphere and the compassionate listening experienced at Middleway."
