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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
