Intuitive Acupuncture

Jonathan is a wonderful, kind, and caring man who makes you feel comfortable from the moment you meet him. While traveling on rotations for med school, I found Jonathan online and consider myself one of the lucky ones. Due to my busy schedule and travel in and out of the area, Jonathan has gone out of his way to make our sessions possible. After three surgeries from rugby, my neck is in constant pain, which is only exacerbated from studying with my head down. Jonathan is extremely knowledgable about body mechanics and is willing to try what works for you. We did a few acupuncture sessions together, but my pain level of laying still that long made it difficult. Instead we found that cupping was a better alternative for my situation. My only regret is that I leave next week and have no more rotations down in SLO. I came in with a decreased range of motion in my neck tonight and left being able to look over my should. I hope it lasts.
Jonathan — thank you and please remember to take care of yourself. Hit me up if you’re ever in the Bay Area

I suffer from chronic neck and shoulder pain — as a writer/​author, I spend too many hours hunched over a computer. I have always «gotten by» with massage therapy which provides 2 – 3 days of relief at a time. I booked an appointment with Jonathan for acupuncture and during the appointment, I tried «cupping» for the first time. While it is a very intense treatment, it provided weeks worth of relief. Today, I had my second session and I look forward to continuing on the path to health and living — versus suffering in chronic, daily pain. I highly recommend Intuitive Acupuncture.

Went in for back pain and muscle tightness and right away felt pain relief. Had many pressure points that felt much more relaxed after the acupuncture treatment. Great music and atmosphere made for an overall healing experience.

Went in for severe knee pain from old (and more recent) injuries. I was desperate for relief, but wanted to avoid narcotics and had this failed, I would have had to use them.
It was a wonderful experience. I basically crawled in, using a cane, and amazingly, walked out, albeit still limping slightly. I’m happy to report that this morning (day after treatment) my pain has been reduced appreciably.
Jonathon is professional and knowledgeable, yet friendly and accessible. I am planning to continue my treatment of herbs and acupuncture, and I am hoping to avoid surgery completely.

I had a pinched nerve in my neck, numbness in my arm and a problem with mobility. I go to massage therepeasts as well as a chiropractor. They help but this was different. With a little history of the problem, Jonathan went to work. Instantly, I could tell there was a big change, so much so I was in awe! Jonathan is very talented healer. Big thanks.

I went to see Jonathan after having my first child. I was feeling the onset of Post Partum Depression, crying for no reason. Of course I hadn’t slept in weeks. He restored my energy and soothed my emotions. I started a formula of herbs and never felt the sadness again.
He also has helped my with an old shoulder injury from over use from swimming and dancing. He gave me some serious cupping. Ahhh, it felt so great. If you haven’t had cupping for pain, you absolutely must try cupping. It’s covered by some insurance too!

I started receiving acupuncture and cupping with Jonathan in March of this year. He has helped me with various issues. I suffer from daily migraines and fibromyalgia so those were my two main concerns when initially going to Intuitive Acupuncture but Jonathan has helped with my allergies, hip and lower back pain. The best news of all after being on daily nerve pain medications for over 3 years is that I am totally off of all pain meds!

As a physical therapist with a Western medicine background I was skeptical about acupuncture. However, after trying to for months to treat my forearm strain myself, with poor results, I decided to give it a try. After the first session, my forearm was significantly better. After a few more sessions it continues to improve with both less pain and improved strength. Jonathan has made me a believer in acupuncture. I will be recommending him for sure. His office is very peaceful and welcoming. Jonathan has a very calming demeanor and puts you at ease. He also has a good sense of humor and doesn’t take himself too seriously, which is very refreshing. Best discovery I’ve made in a long while. Go see him!

I started receiving Acupuncture, Cupping and Herbal Medicine with Jonathan several years ago. He has helped me heal faster and also prevent future sport injuries. He’s been a great source of information on nutrition and training. He’s one of the best sport medicine practitioners I’ve seen. Very professional and knowledgeable I’ve been very pleased with my results.

I came in to see Jonathan after already going to urgent care that same morning with the suggestion that I start antibiotics immediately for a wasp sting without full investigation. After reaching out to Jonathan, he quickly made space for me in his day to treat my pretty severe swelling and discomfort on my arm. As a first time patient, I had no idea what to expect and the energy and environment of his workplace was calming and his approach is very straightforward and solutions oriented. What I appreciate most about my experience was that it totally worked. I woke up today and my arm is almost completely healed… no more itching and the inflammation is almost gone. I highly recommend Jonathan’s practice and am excited to learn more.

I went to intuitive acupuncture with horrible tmj issues. I had used massage, the chiropractor, and pain relievers with no lasting results.
The only thing that have me lasting results was acupuncture. Intuitive acupuncture healed my jaw pain and five months later, still no pain. I am so grateful to have found this healer! I would highly recommend!

I have been going to Jonathan for the past year and have noticed great results. He is very professional, and he truly cares about his clients well being! I would highly recommend going in to see him if you want to feel better and live pain free!

I was in two car accidents last year and my back has been really acting up. I had never done acupuncture before so I was a little worried. I heard good things about Jonathan so I thought well why not? He could tell I was nervous and explained everything to me. There were no surprises! I felt very relaxed. When the experience was over I felt relief. I know I’m not healed from one visit as he says it may take 3 or 4 more times for me. I can’t wait to get in again. Never thought is say that ha! You won’t be disappointed! Thanks Jonathan!!!

Jon’s a champ. Awesome acupuncturist. Highly recommended.

After having my son 2 years ago I have had constant hip pain. I have seen medical doctors, chiropractors and massage therapists, none of which fixed or alleviated the problem. I had a friend tell me about acupuncture and said maybe I should try it. Being in pain for 2 years, at this point, I was open to anything. I’ve never been a skeptic of acupuncture but I have always been kind of intimidated by the whole «getting stabbed with a lot of tiny needles» thing. It was very quick and easy to request and schedule an appointment with Jonathan and he was very flexible in accommodating my request. He was very professional and his bedside manner was GREAT! Overall, it has been almost 2 weeks and this is still the best my hip has felt in 2 years! I am so glad I gave acupuncture a shot and I will definitely be back!

I Highly Recommend Jonothan! He is very helpful, knows his stuff, not only in needle placement but also is very knowledgable on herbs as well. He also Tries to figure out the root of your problem, and not just sticking needles into you. I deal with a lot of acupuncturists almost all of them are self righteous jerks, you dont get that with Jonothan, you can tell he truely cares and wants to help, In anyway he can. I would recommend anyone looking for acupuncture GO TO HIM. You won’t regret it.

Johnathan has been treating me for almost a year and he has always made the pain in my back, shoulders, and elbow go away. I have been to chiropractors for my lower back and it never helped for more than a few days before I went back to feeling the same pain. The doctor would always just want to give me medicines or talk about surgery. Johnathan has done (and continues to do) acupuncture and some cupping and I’m good for months. I highly recommend Intuitive Acupuncture.

Highly recommend Intuitive Acupuncture —
I started treatments with Jonathan a few weeks ago for wrist pain that has been lingering for over a year. I had tried many «remedies» from taking Naproxen, to Advil, to simple PT sessions with the last recommendation from my physician being Cortisone shots. I want to resolve the pain, not mask it! As a result, I decided to try acupuncture. Immediately after my first session with Jonathan the pain in my wrist was gone. I was amazed and found myself «shaking my head» with great surprise. Even more so, I typically feel pain in my wrist immediately after I exercise (lifting weights) and I felt no such thing — again, I found myself «shaking my head.» :):) This is a vast improvement that I owe to Jonathan.
So… this past Monday I went back to Jonathan for help with the pains I have been experiencing in my knee for over a year — the pain dramatically decreased and for the first time in 6 months I was able to complete a simple Hack Squat without feeling such awkwardness in my knee :)
HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY Recommend Intuitive Acupuncture –
