Great experience!

by lmichal

I found Chris in my search for an alternative to a number of health problems that came up for me. I have allergies, eczema, hashimoto's thyroiditis, rheynaud's, IBS and developed uveitis (eye inflammation) which doctors thought was due to internal inflammation caused by an immune disorder. They did not find anything but thought there was something happening internally with my immune system. I went to Chris very frustrated and anxious about what was happening. In the meantime I was going through the application process to a PhD program. In sum, Chris was very knowledgeable and recommended some supplements that have really helped. He was very gentle and understanding and I found that my anxiety was greatly reduced while going to Chris. The uveitis is completely gone since going to Chris regularly. My eczema still flares up but it too improved. Overall, I would highly recommend Chris. He is not only a great acupuncturist but a great person as well! I have since moved out of the Philly area to start a PhD program...I really miss going to acupuncture with him!!

  • Pros: professional/knowledgeable with a lot of warmth

Relief from intestinal disorder

by jura

I took an appointment with Christopher Hudson to get some help with gastrointestinal problems

(epigastric pain and loose stools after the removal of my gallbladder).

Christopher took the time to run a comprehensive evaluation and he made me feel comfortable right away. After the first session I felt relief and my health improved dramatically after the third session.

Christopher also treat me for stress and the results were immediate and very efficient. I had previous experiences with acupuncture but I have never met an

acupuncturist so attentive and gentle with the placement of needles. To me he is the best by far. If you are looking for somebody who will really take the time to listen and make a difference, Christopher is the one.

Greatly reduced severe pain from thoracic outlet syndrome

by corman2

Christopher Hudson made a tremendous difference in my ability to recover from severe neck and shoulder pain. I was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) and had been referred by my neurologist to a physical therapist who specialized in TOS. Unfortunately the pain and stiffness in my neck prevented me from progressing. I spoke to several people who routinely received acupuncture for severe pain and learned that it was important to find someone which numerous years of experience and a gentle touch. After some investigating, I found Chris who seemed to fit the bill. After only two sessions I was dramatically better, so much so, that the physical therapist immediately noticed the difference. With the help of Chris’ expert technique I was finally able to complete physical therapy and get back to the biking that I enjoy so much. Part of Chris’ success is the personalized attention he provides. He takes the time to get to know his patients and develop a treatment strategy that will best work for their situation. His skill is remarkable and has never caused me any significant discomfort. I still periodically see Chris if I am feeling any flaring of the problem which has been both helpful for my neck and psyche. I should also note that after seeing my dramatic improvement, my physical therapist began referring patients to Chris.

  • Pros: Effective, gentle and caring
  • Cons: None

His technique is very gentle and looks at both the physical and emotional aspects to any given individual. Treatment also can include recommendations for supplements, herbs, lifestyle and dietary changes.

He maintains a smaller practice and gives far more individual and personalized attention to his patients than what is typical of Acupuncturists.
