Abram Ojure, Lic. Ac., MAOM, Dipl. OM

In february I fell while skiing and injured my neck and shoulder. I saw countless doctors and endured weeks of physical therapy, but still suffered from chronic pain. Most days my pain level remained at an 8 or higher. I struggled to complete daily tasks and suffered from severe headaches every day. Most doctors only wanted to solve the problem with drugs. I was referred to Abe by a physiatrist that had worked with him in the past. This physiatrist had told me that my only options left were spinal injections or acupuncture. I obviously choose the acupuncture! Abe spoke with me on the phone prior to our session and asked a number of questions about how I was feeling. When I arrived for my session he had me complete an incredibly thorough questionnaire. He knew I was afraid of needles and eased me into the process. Prior to my first appointment I could not turn my head to the left and had serious restrictions in my general neck movement. Within the first five minutes (with just 4 needles) I was able to turn my head all the way to the left and felt more open than I had since before my fall. After three visits the pain went away completely and only returned intermittently. After several sessions with Abe I no longer have headaches, chronic pain or restrictions. He is a true healer and I would recommend that anyone go and see Abe for any problem. He has been able to help me more in a few months than any doctor or drug so far.

So thankful!
As a seasoned patient of acupuncture, I have been treated by a few different practitioners in the last several years. Abram by far is the most talented and caring of them all. The moment I had my first session I felt better immediately and now almost a year later I feel like a new person. Abram really listens to his patients and is so knowledgeable that you walk out of each session feeling like someone truly cares.

This was my first experience with acupuncture and it changed my life! I was dealing with a sudden onset of anxiety and accompanying back pain, so I decided to give it a try and I will be forever grateful to Abram for how much he helped me. From my first conversation with him on the phone he was always very calming and friendly. His demeanor combined with his extensive knowledge of the human body and mind make you feel instantly at ease. I went for weekly appointments of acupuncture, gua sha and cupping, all of which helped me tremendously! The gua sha was surprisingly soothing and the cupping did wonders for my back — after the first time I was able to completely stop my 600mg ibuprofen regimen for a (possible) pinched nerve. The acupuncture put me to sleep sometimes because I became so relaxed! He also knows a great deal about Chinese herbal medicine, and he was able to prescribe me several herb combinations that helped with my symptoms of anxiety and building my blood. I have been recommending Abram to everyone I know in the Boston/​Cambridge area and will continue to do so. Whether you’re dealing with physical pain or more emotional stress, I can tell you with confidence that Abram Ojure will be able to help you.

I have been going to Abe for over 3 years now. Abe is a great listener, has a calming presence, and is very confident in his practice. I have had huge improvements with neck and shoulder pain. Abe has also helped me with lowering my stress, improving relaxation, and energy levels. My appointments always feel like such a treat! I had never tried acupuncture before Abe and now I find myself recommending Abe to all my friends and family.

I have a chronic, debilitating condition from a car accident that occurred more than 20 years ago and have excruciating pain in my neck, shoulders and back that comes-​and-​goes. I have tried weekly massage therapy, stretching and PT, but that would only give me temporary relief and leave me frustrated. I had heard about acupuncture and that it can alleviate pain and can do wonders, so I began to search for an acupuncturist near my place of employment.
Upon searching, I came across Abram’s Unilocal page and reviews and was completely convinced that he would be able to help me based on the feedback he received from his other patients. After contacting Abram, he worked right away to get me into his office for a consultation. Abram has the unique ability to make you feel like you are his one and only patient. He is kind, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable. After my very fist visit, I was a believer in the holistic approach and am now convinced that I am in good hands with Abram’s care! I know it will take time due to the nature of my injury, but I am confident that by visiting Abram on a frequent basis, my flare-​ups will begin to diminish and resurface far less often.
I feel extremely fortunate to have found Abram — he is passionate about his work and about helping his patients get on the road to overall well-​being. I created a Unilocal account only so that I could share all the great things I have found in Abram with everyone so that someone else can benefit from his work and perhaps painful flare-​ups, or even surgery! You will not be disappointed after seeing Abram — that I am 100% confident in saying!!!

I went to Abram today with lower back pain. I was amazed! He reduced my discomfort more than I could have imagined anyone or any pill could. I am looking forward to seeing him soon for more therapy. I highly suggest him for acupuncture. If you’ve never done it… try it!!!

I have had debilitating migraines since I was a little girl, I went to specialists and tried different medications and lifestyle changes in an attempt to prevent/​deal with them over the years. I had accepted that they would always be something I would have to live with. In addition to the obvious pain, I would see an annoying sparkly aura and have to stay home from work, refrain from driving and loose entire days!
With an increased volume earlier this year, and at my girlfriend’s suggestion of Abram’s acupuncture practice, I figured — why not give it a try. I was skeptical but thought at the very least it would be relaxing. BEST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE!
I imagine, like anything else, there are good acupuncturists and not as good acupuncturists. Abram Ojure is the very best and there is no need to look any further. Within a month of treatment, my migraines were GONE. GONE, GONE, GONE! I am still absolutely dumbfounded as to how these little needles (with Abrams expertise and knowledge of Chinese medicine) could make my migraines go away?! I never want to stop my visits with Abram. Although he said I can just come for tune ups now, I really want to continue going on a regular basis! It has not only eliminated my chronic migraines, I find that my overall well being, energy and anxiety levels all continue to improve. Abram told me that he would help me and he has. He is an absolutely wonderful person that genuinely cares about his patients well being. I HIGHLY recommend setting up an appointment with Abram if you want to improve your health and address specific ailments, he will 100 percent help you too!

I’m super picky about my acupuncturists — and I’ve had quite a few, so I know the awesome from the not-​so-​awesome.
First of all, Abram is just super cool — easygoing, fun to talk to, and just puts you at ease. You want someone who is going to listen and talk with you — and not push you out the door, and he’s it.
Second, I’ve come in with back injuries, foot injuries (I’m a klutz), and an ongoing eye issues. Acupuncture healed my back in like two sessions and my foot injury in one session. My ongoing eye issue is far more complicated, but due to his ongoing care and his prescription of herbs (I love them!), it’s gotten much better. I’ve also made lifestyle changes due to his advice — more sleep, more greens, etc.
Finally, needles don’t hurt. They really don’t. So, if you’ve been battling with Western medicine for too long, take a stroll to the Eastern side with Abram — you won’t be disappointed.

I found Abram when I was in severe, 10 out of 10 pain from pinched nerves in my low back. I was in far too much pain to go to an office, and a friend of a friend knew him and said he made house calls. I arranged for him to come for a first visit and ended up having to spend a night in the hospital. I was late getting home, but he waited for me and gave me a treatment that helped dramatically. He has been coming to my home to treat me ever since (five months, now.)
Abram is a true healer. Not only is he deeply knowledgeable about both acupuncture itself and Chinese herbal medicine, he is also endlessly kind, compassionate and supportive. He shares his thinking about best approaches to my very complicated health condition, listens carefully to what I tell him, and has successfully treated my pain, and a host of imbalances resulting from the pain, the medications I was on, the side effects of those medications, which included severe digestive problems, palpitations, anxiety, insomnia and more, and the symptoms of my withdrawal from narcotics. He combines knowledge, intuition, curiosity, and attentive, respectful listening, and has made a huge difference in my quality of life.
I have a genetic liver condition, epilepsy, chronic joint and muscle pain and severe fatigue. Abram’s done a great job of working with my shifting priorities as my symptoms have waxed and waned, and stayed on top of a complicated situation, managing to balance short term flare ups with the long term goals of strengthening my system overall. All the herbs he prescribed have been extremely helpful, and he’s found ways to work around my neurological hypersensitivity (I can’t have needles in the upper part of my body without potentially triggering seizures) always finding alternate points, and herbs that won’t overstimulate my brain, while they rebuild my energy.
He has also been more than willing to accommodate my disabilities. I have severe environmental illness/​multiple chemical sensitivities and can’t tolerate fragrances. Abram comes to my house every week and changes into clothing I provide in order to protect me from exposure. He continues to make house calls, although his office is only two blocks away, because I can’t tolerate his building.
I highly recommend him, (like, supercalifragilistically) especially for those of us with access issues that make it hard to go to standard acupuncture offices.

I have been seeing Abram for acupuncture for a few months now and have seen such a huge improvement in my migraines, energy levels and stomach issues. He is patient, caring, very knowledgeable and a great listener. I have been prescribed many different medications over the years but acupuncture (as well as herb’s recommended by Abram) has worked better than anything from my doctor. He also takes time to suggest and educate me on other lifestyle changes I should make to feel my best.
While everyone’s needs will be unique, I would highly recommend Abram to anyone that may be considering acupuncture. I have complete faith in his practice and I’m very grateful for his knowledge and treatments.

I have had chronic debilitating nerve pain that I have been treating with western medicine to no avail. I found Abram Ojure and he worked immediately to get me in for a consult. He worked behind the scenes to get certified for my insurance, United Health, and set up a treatment plan. He listened, researched, and continually adjust my treatment plan of acupuncture and herbs. Many results were immediate, but many more were subtle. I have had to miss a few appointments due to work and the resulting discomfort has proven the cause effect of his expert treatment plans.
I have and will continue to refer him to anyone and everyone who needs help. He has a great breadth of knowledge and knows how to place the needles.
Great Doctor and I am happy to have met him. He is now working more directly with my primary, GI and Pain Care doctors to manage my health with Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs.
