Asheville Orthopedic Acupuncture Reviews

Excellent experience with very good results for a first 90-minute procedure from this highly recommended Acupuncturist. One of the very best Acupuncturist's I have ever experienced over 40 years of having this procedure done. 'Combo' acupressure and acupuncture produced an amazing result on my debilitating back pain. I am looking forward to getting a few more visits from Chad Johnson, for even better results that can eliminate back surgery. Thanks, Warren

Had my first appointment with Dr Chad today. I booked with Nicole who was absolutely fantastic! Very nice offices. Easy to find. Dr Chad discussed todays treatment with me and also how we would move forward. Treatment was excellent. Highly recommend Dr Chad.

After RICE, ortho, and rock tape, it was acupuncture with Chad Johnson that finally healed my knee pain. Thank you for getting me to the summits again!!🌄

Thank you so much for sharing this. Knee pain can be incredibly frustrating, especially after you’ve already tried so many thoughtful approaches.

Chad will really appreciate hearing this. He puts a lot of care into assessing what’s truly driving the pain and tailoring treatment from there. We’re so glad the acupuncture helped you turn the corner and get back to the summits again!

That’s exactly why we do this work.

Chad is an amazing Acupuncturist! I was hesitant to check out Acupuncture and definitely a “Doubting Thomas.“ After reading his stellar reviews, I decided to give it a try. Chad has addressed multiple issues physically that I have been dealing with and alleviated a great deal of pain in many, many areas. I highly recommend Chad!

Chad is so knowledgeable; never been to an acupuncturist who could diagnose and treat the problems so well. He is also kind and empathetic. We have recommended him to many friends! He is one of a kind!

If I could leave 12-15 Five Star Reviews I would. My first session with Chad was to help mend my tennis elbow in a holistic and swift way - I felt immediate improvement from the first session and after another 2-3 sessions I've felt a longterm and stable improvement (my pickleball game is finally back!). I continue to return every few weeks due to the incredible results that occur IMMEDIATELY. From achilles tenderness to shoulder and back pain, it feels like a magic that Chad imbues when he's able to tap into his holistic understanding of the body and find ways to trigger immediate relief. Although I've used the word 3x the "immediate" relief can not be overstated. It's wonderful. I feel like I'm walking on wispy clouds of glory when I leave my sessions. Grateful for the thoughtful, grounded, highly professional and holistic healing that happens here. If you're experiencing recurring aches or pains and would prefer to enjoy living without those things, book a session.

Chad is nothing short of a magician! Some pain went away immediately and other pain left the following 2 days after the treatment set in. I now have mobility in my arm without pain. Thank you Chad!

It is always an amazing experience to work with Chad. He is the only person I know in my life that has such a deep knowledge of the human body. Chad healed my right shoulder, which was in a really precarious situation, i couldn’t lift weights or do any upper body training. After 3 sessions with Chad,I was back to full on mode and i keep going. Thank you Chad!

In my first session with Chad he listened carefully to my needs before recommending a treatment plan. His bedside manner was informative and reassuring. Throughout the treatment he explained the steps he was taking and why. I experienced no pain whatsoever as he applied the accupuncture needles. Afterwards I definitely felt better. Chad assessed that in one or two more treatments he will have the underlying issue resolved: I appreciated that he set a clear endpoint for this treatment.

I am 83 and struggling with many personal and worldly fears. I am exhausted, drained, in addition with various pains here and there. I ALWAYS leave Chad feeling significantly better and much stronger. He literally helps me stay alive and function independently. His Japanese based style is a gentle needling approach and yet magnificently and even instantly effective. Today I arrived down and out and left with strength and energy to catch up with chores and enjoy our shared meal. I call Chad, Doctor Wizesrd.

I have two sons with a background in acupuncture, so I am in a better position to evaluate Chad’s work. His special training in orthopedic acupuncture gives him a unique approach to acupuncture, with immediate results. Having lived CHina and had acupuncture there, I had given up on acupuncture in the US, Chad more that restored my confidence, and I highly recommend him.
