West Seattle Acupuncture

Paul is the best there is. After 9 years of visits for everything from pregnancy woes, fertility, stress, colds, muscle issues, etc there is nothing this man can't help you with! Not to mention he is so done to earth and kind. He is the first person I reach out to for medical help and I haven't had to look further. Simply the best!!! more

I saw Paul several years ago for lower back (muscular) pain. After 4 treatments I was CURED. I have seen Paul of late for sleep and stress related issues. After one treatment, I feel so much better. Moreover, Paul has grown into such a mature doctor who possesses outstanding bedside manners and compassion consistent with someone who has been in the business 30+ years. If he takes his practice public, I am buying all the stock I can! Great guy. Outstanding doctor. more

As a new mom who is trying to figure out how to get more comfortable with breastfeeding, my acupuncture treatments with Paul have been critical. Not only are his treatments helping to relieve stress and exhaustion, but he has helped restore my breast milk supply back up to 4+ ounces from each breast! If any woman is having issues with milk supply, I strongly recommend working with Paul at West Seattle Acupuncture. He is an amazing practitioner (friendly, attentive & gentle) and his methods work! more

i sought out acupuncture as a last resort. i was a firm disbeliever but suffered from terrible summertime allergies(no medication offered relief)and was at my wit's end. a friend suggested acupuncture and i acutally found paul in the yellow pages! it's been 10 years, and i have not taken allergy medication in about 9. not only has paul/acupuncture assisted me with allergies, but with stress and insomnia as well. my husband seperated his shoulder about a year ago, and was back to work in no time thanks to paul. i would recommend him to friends and family alike. paul deserves 10 stars!!! more

Good: At age 66 and having been injured from head to toe, with little help from medical doctors Paul has a passion for his work and listens to your concerns. he is compassionate, and understanding. He's worked with helping me get warm as I've been so cold all my life that nitro glycern was used on the tops of my feet to get circulation going--didn't work but Paul used moxa that did. Paul also worked with my bad knee, stomach, shoulder and lower back and in five treatments I'm a differnt person.. Bad: There isn't anything I don't like about Paul, just wish medical doctors would listen as he does, and answer the questions I ask as to why he does what he's doing. Medical doctors sometimes give you medicine but never explain exactly why you are taking it and I want to know why and he explains why on all he's doing if you ask. Paul was recommended to me by my former acupuncturist who is far away. He's well trained for my needs and has been able to do more than my last one.. Improvements: I can't think of anything as he's also gotten me to look up and understand Chinese medicine tied to acupuncture more--and always nice to learn.. Other: If you've not found the answers to your medical problems before doing any surgery. I'd try acupuncture and Paul would be a great start. I'd scheduled surgery on my knee and two visits to my former acupuncturist I canceled surgery, my husband had allergies for 6o years before going to acupuncture 8 times and never had another bout with his allergies. A friend age 84 was having memory problems so she went twice and exercised as advised and her memory is so much better she is still diving and active. more

Paul sees the bigger picture of issues and he really solves them. He's not concentrated on "selling" you on acupuncture - he just tells it like it is. And for those like me that hate needles, you will soon love the experience...from a bad cold to back ache. I hate taking prescription drugs and with Paul's help, there is no need. He's a nice guy, too. TLP - Seattle more

My first experience with acupuncture was also with Paul. While I was a bit hesitant and doubtful about its effects, Paul helped me to relax before the treatment and was quite calming as I went through the process. My main objective was to work through stress (attributable to my job), and the treatment had accomplished that. After the treatment, I had felt as good as if I had been to an intense yoga session. I intend to go to weekly sessions and plan on staying with Paul. I definitely recomend the West Seattle Acupunture Clinic - whether you're new to acupuncture or have had experience with this type of treatment before. more

My first experience with acupuncture was with Paul. He was just starting out with his own practice, and it grew so much that he got his own office. I appreciated his skill and calmness so much, since I was going through some difficult life changes when I saw him. He was younger than me, but had wisdom beyond his age. I greatly appreciate and am thankful for Paul's gentle help in my introduction to acupuncture and Chinese herbs. He was a great stepping stone for me on my journey. I don't feel that Paul's knowledge base back then included as much female treatments, so I moved on to another acupuncturist who could understand pregnancy and lactation better. Paul is a great provider for chronic pain, injuries, and emotional healing though. more
