John Nieters Lac

I have been seeing John on a weekly basis for almost a year now, and I drive from Santa Cruz to do so. I have not met anyone as gifted in his/her field as John, and I highly recommend him to people looking for help or guidance concerning their health. more

When I first scheduled an appointment with John, I was experiencing colds monthly and had been taking antibiotics without any improvement. I did not know anything about acupuncture, but I was not getting positive results from Western medicine. At the time, I had made a decision to have all female health care providers, but the way that John took the time to listen made me feel empowered and that he would be a partner in my healing. Since that time years ago, John has treated me for back pain, menstrual cramps, asthma and respiratory issues, skin conditions (hives and eczema), food allergies, emergency care after car accidents, and nutritional advice for weight loss. My life is much more peaceful and healthy now; instead of being addicted to caffeine, I exercise and mediate daily to feel energized. Pros: Knowledgeable, Compassionate, Non-judgemental more

I believe that John Nieters saved my life. After struggling with multiple health problems for over a decade, two unnecessary surgeries, and thousands of dollars spent on ineffective and potentially dangerous Western medical treatment , I turned to John for help. I felt better after the first treatment and have consistently depended on his considerable compassion, skill , and knowledge to rebuild and maintain optimal health. Pros: compassionate, knowledgeable, skilled more

John Nieters' extensive knowledge, combined with concern for each patient, and trust in his sense of how to help you, makes him one of the strongest medical practioners in any field that I have ever encountered. His care helped me exit my Western treatment for cancer with the physical resources to recover more fully and more quickly. His knowledge of preventative medicine gives me increased hope that my cancer won't return. more

I have known John Nieters for 8 years on a professional and personal level. Their is no one I think more highly of than John. Through his help with acupuncture, chinese herbs, T'ai Chi, vision group, the apprentice program and various workshops, I have changed my life. Words can not describe my appreciation and gratitude towards him and his family. Pros: Effective, Relaxing, Gentle more

John takes his time with you and truly listens. He is extremely compassionate and skilled. He really made a difference for me in several areas: I saw him for INFLAMED TENDONS, after I had seen my MD and several chiropractors. I saw him before pregnancy for FERTILITY. I saw him DURING PREGANCY for relief of NAUSEA and SWELLING. I saw him post-pregnancy for HORMONE BALANCING and WEIGHT LOSS (I now weigh less than I did before pregnancy). I used to get COLDS/FLUS every month during my period and now I get a cold about once every two years & if I see him right at the beginning, I am over it within 24 hours. I take his herbal prescriptions, which give me energy (no need for caffeine) and give me patience when I have PMS or am irritable. He usually treats me with ACUPUNCTURE, NUTRITION & CUSTOM HERBAL POWDER MIXES. Pros: GOOD ON STREE PARKING, GREAT VALUE, VERY EDUCATIONAL more

John is a wonderful acupuncturist with a holistic approach to health. He is very supportive and offers an alternative to western medicine that is healing and non-judgmental. I highly recommend him and his staff. more
