I’ve been seeking acupuncture treatment at NECA for several years to help control my RA. They have exceptional experience with autoimmune conditions and my arthritis is well controlled without medication. I use consistent acupuncture and herbal medicine with excellent results and greatly value NECA!

I have had for the past five years, pain in my upper legs/calves and feet from vascular disease. Since beginning treatment here, I have NO pain in my legs and am now being treated for my feet. I am truly amazed at how simple the procedure is and am very happy with the staff. I would certainly recommend NECA for anyone who suffers from pain.

Only good things to say!!

First and foremost, I absolutely find the staff superbly knowledgeable, professional, and sensitive to my woes. I have been a client for a few years. I recently moved to Chicago and continue to make appointments as I come back often. In the course of a week I have sought their services and wisdom as many as 3 times. I would absolutely recommend and share in the great gift I have in knowing I have “a family”at NECA.

I came to NECA for bursitis, an old whiplash injury from 1967 and to avoid knee replacement surgery. Treatment has done wonders for my neck pain and headaches and I have been able to avoid knee replacement. Remarkable improvement both physically and mentally. I look forward to acupuncture as a life long commitment.

Before I came to NECA I was not getting much relief from other sources. They have done so much for me in so little time.
Be lost without them!

After thousands of dollars, two doctors, two dermatologists and countless tests – modern medicine said there was nothing else they could do for me. After three weeks at NECA I started seeing results. They genuinely care, you are not a number or a dollar sign. I plan to continue regular visits because I enjoy my time at NECA so much and it is affordable.

Wanting to wait as long as possible for knee replacement surgery, my doctor told me about NECA. The first time I came in, I felt their caring, compassion and real desire to help me. The treatment room has soft lights, soothing music and reclining chairs. Not only are you treated for your initial issue, but, as I found out, they treat all of you – physical, mental and spiritual. NECA has helped me so much. I don’t think I could ever thank them enough.

The acupuncturists at NECA have been life savers with my lower back issues. I’d gone the cortisone injection route with only temporary relief and I knew I didn’t want back surgery. Several months of intensive acupuncture (2-3 times a week) got me back to where I can now engage in regular exercise. Acupuncture maintenance one or two times a month keeps me pain free and enjoying life. I’m very grateful.

I came to NECA in one of my darkest hours. They were so kind and compassionate. Acupuncture helped me in a way no other conventional treatments could. I have been getting treatment twice a week for a year and a half. It is the best investment I have ever made, and has helped me navigate through very difficult times. I would be lost without them.

A little over two years ago I came to NECA after my physician told me that the only hope I will have to get relief from my awful pain in my neck and shoulder was acupuncture. Now I have many days without pain. I will keep coming for treatment as long as it takes.

Everybody is so nice and helpful here. It makes me feel loved to come for treatment.

I came in with lower back pain and fatigue from my job as a massage therapist. All the acupuncturists I’ve seen are excellent, and know exactly what I need. My back pain has significantly improved and my fatigue has vanished. I am able to do 50% more massage than before. Thank you NECA!!

After one treatment my neck felt better. I love coming here, I always feel better when I leave.

Acupuncture and Parkinson’s Disease – acupuncture helped me get through back surgery, colon cancer, chemotherapy, a broken wrist and knee replacement surgery while coping with the affects of Parkinson’s. One very specific way it has helped my Parkinson’s is the timing of my medication. Before acupuncture I was taking Sinemet every 2.5 hours, since using acupuncture I am able to lessen the need of medication to every 5 hours and reduce the side effects of the medicine.

It was when I found my leg had gone “to sleep” from sitting with my leg bent under me that I realized just how much better my knees were feeling. Three months earlier I could barely bend my knee without significant pain. Thank you New England Community Acupuncture!!

NECA was recommended to me by my Rheumatologist. Since coming to the clinic I have found relief from the difficult aches and pains I was experiencing on a daily basis. It was suggested by my physician that I wear a brace for my ankle. I have not needed the brace since coming to NECA. Now my back pain flares only occasionally compared to daily pain and I simply call and schedule an appointment.

When my seasonal allergies brought a persistent dry cough this year, the practitioners at NECA recommended a custom mixture of traditional Chinese herbs to resolve the condition. I found the herbal formula prepared for me by NECA to be more effective, faster acting than any medication I have taken over the past two decades, and with no side effects.

All in all, without NECA, I don’t think I would have the great access to affordable acupuncture. I recommend NECA to anyone looking for acupuncture.

New England Community Acupuncture is remarkable! I am resting better, anxiety is much less and the back pain is reduced significantly. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

I love Dr. Matt because he helped me with my terrible asthma. At first I had it so bad that I called it “hurricanes”. They gave me yucky tea and acupuncture. I am pretty young for that, but after awhile, IT WORKED! Now I barely cough ever!

I recommend NECA most highly. All the practitioners are extremely skillful and compassionate. I look forward to my weekly treatments and I’ve received astounding health benefits from both treatment and herbal prescriptions. The sessions are very affordable and the low cost is not a reflection of the quality, but rather a commitment of the practice to offer affordable care. I’ve been to many acupuncture practices and NECA has been the most attentive and given me the best outcome.

I can’t say enough about NECA! My Mom is now a patient here and she loves it too!

Wonderful service provided. Therapist is sensitive to your needs. Professional staff. Affordable treatment. Thanks for all you do to help others. My pain is a lot more controlled.

I had physical therapy, massage therapy, and chiropractic work done on my neck. It wasn’t until I went to NECA that I finally was helped. The price they charge is very reasonable and the staff is fantastic. I would recommend it to everyone.

NECA has been the most helpful group of health care givers I have ever encountered. They are eager to help you at each visit and listen closely to what you tell them about your pain. They have helped me immensely. I still have a way to go, but I am very pleased with my progress. I highly recommend them.

I came to NECA in significant pain caused by dry eye, which made it difficult to read, drive a car, work, and even sleep. Through weekly treatments, I have found significant relief. I will be forever grateful.

As a massage therapist and exercise instructor my body experiences many physical challenges. They help me heal so I can do my job. Thank you NECA!

I enjoy the treatment and find it helpful.

I am having a very good experience. Doing better each week.
