I have been seeing Jose on and off for almost 3 years. He is always a good listener, very approachable, and has treated me with respect even if I came in with the same issues. He has helped me prevent all hormonally challenging issues monthly with as few treatments as 2 acupuncture sessions and 1 week of herbs and since then I need a tuneup only every 6 months or so. Jose has a very special gift to see people and know what they need even without taking pulses, reading your tongue, etc. His background in nursing makes him a fabulous practitioner blending eastern and western knowledge to give you the best natural treatment without hesitating to recommend something like antibiotics should you require it. If you haven't been to him before and you live in the valley, I highly suggest you go!
