Pain relief that works!

by NrgGuy at Citysearch

After suffering a debilitating auto accident I saw every kind of Doctor imaginable. The chiropractor, physical therapists and Dr's tried but could not help with pain relief. Finally, I made an appointment with Chris at Rittenhouse Acupuncture and the relief from the pain was immediate. I still see him on a regular basis and highly recommend him to any one who appreciates honest and ethical treatment. It's nice to see a professional who cares about his patients well being. Thanks for the great treatments Chris!

Madea real difference!

by Joan A at Citysearch

I have suffered on an off with lower back pain for 30 years. It had gotten pretty bad, so I tried a chiropractor - to no avail.. A friend who used Chris Hudson raved about the relief she got from neck pain, so I decided to try him.

The results I got were outstanding. I felt Chris made a huge difference in my quality of life. I continue to go regularly.

I live in the suburbs, so getting to Chris means driving in and paying for parking, or taking the train - neither very convenient. But I get there because it is WORTH it!

Chris really shows a level of caring that's rare in practitioners!

Joint Relief

by Merrikat at Citysearch

I highly recommend Chris Hudson for treatment of joint pain. I have had mild to moderate rheumatoid arthritis for about 6 years, with some permanent joint damage. After 3 or 4 weekly acupuncture sessions, my joint pain began to improve, and the swelling in my hand joints noticeably decreased. Chris encouraged me to increase the time between treatments to keep the cost down. After two or three months of treatment, I was able (with my rheumatologist's agreement) to reduce my medication to half my customary dose. I have also been taking the supplement Collagenex, which Chris recommended. Since I started treatment with Chris, I would estimate my joint pain has decreased by 60 to 70%. It may be a coincidence, but I doubt it - this is the longest and most complete remission I have experienced since being diagnosed with RA. If you have chronic pain, you should definitely give Rittenhouse Acupuncture a try - and by the way it doesn't hurt.

No need to look any further...

I was fortunate enough to find Christopher Hudson and I cannot be more thankful. I was put on medication for some premenstrual anxiety I had suffered with. After being on it for years, I decided along with my doctor that I can come off of it. Well if you are unaware of "discontinuation syndrome" that is associated with coming off of anti-depressants you are lucky. I was anxiety ridden worse than ever before, could not eat, flu-like symptoms, etc. I went into Chris's office with tears in my eyes ready to go back on medicine just to feel "normal" again. I had never done acupuncture before and was scared and hopeless.

Chris took an extensive history and let me go on and on about my fear of whether or not this was the right choice for me. He was honest and knowledgeable about acupuncture and overall general health. He has been a God send to me, and I can't thank him enough for helping me feel "myself" again. I have already referred numerous friends to him.

Take a deep breath and call Christopher Hudson, you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic!

I cannot recommend Christopher Hudson @ Rittenhouse Acupuncture enough.. both my husband and I go to him for different health issues, and we are very happy with the improvements so far... I've only had 4 visits and already some of the health issues I have been struggling with for almost a year (with no help from conventional doctors) are much improved. In addition I have not been this calm/able to manage stress in years..

• Pros: effective treatments, nice guy
• Cons: none
