Master Acupuncturist/Herbalist
by gina4515
Sharon is the real deal. I have been receiving acupuncture treatments for over 25 years, and am myself an alternative health practitioner. Sharon has a deep respect for Chinese medicine. Her encyclopedic knowledge of herbs is rare to find, and is essential to the true practice of the art. She is constantly seeking further knowledge. If your condition has her stumped, she will go home and curl up with one of her favorite massive Chinese medical texts and have the perfect treatment designed for your next session.
Sharon has helped me clear out low energy left over from Chronic Fatigue and completely eliminated menapause-related anxiety. Her incisive mind and earthy humor let you know that you're in good hands.
Doesn't Get Better Than Sharon....
by Randi007
I began seeing Sharon a few years ago. She was recomended to me by a friend. She has been able to help me with a variety of ailments. Sharon is well educated, knowledgable and very funny. She takes her profession with a seriousness that is rarely found in Alternative Health Care. Sharon amazes me at how she continues her education by taking classes and staying up to date on health issues. I have recomended Sharon to many people. Everyone that has gone to see her has been very happy with the results. She is a great accupunturist and a great person. You may not be feeling great when you walk into her office but you will always leave feeling better. Plus, she will make you laugh a lot!
Indebted to Sharon
by blsedgrce
Sharon?s professionalism shows through her dedication and knowledge. Sharon?s time spent listening to my issues and providing care and use of high quality products showed her compassion and desire to help heal my body. Sharon?s sense of humor put me at ease during each visit.

I always get positive results.

Not all acupuncturists are the same! Ten years ago I received acupuncture 3 times a week for a period of 9 months with no positive results, so I was reluctant to utilize acupuncture again when the body worker who treated me weekly was leaving the country for 2 months and highly recommended Sharon Sherman, the acupuncturist who treated her.I took her advice and within 3 weeks was aware that I had made one of the best decisions of my life. I have been on ongoing chemotherapy resulting in much throwing up ? as much as 20 times a day. Within 3 weeks I was throwing up merely 4 times a day, and within a month I had dropped to throwing up only several times a month. I was amazed that Sharon was able to impact something that $68,000 worth of anti-nausea medicine had not affected. That was not my only health problem nor the only benefit I received from Sharon?s treatments.Sharon works like a detective ? she listens, observes, and assesses, and then works to ?solve? the problem(s). She?s incredibly smart, well-taught, continually taking more classes, and also well-versed in the practices of herbs. She works hard for her clients. I have continued with weekly treatments with very good results.One has the sense that she is ?in one?s corner,? utilizing her immense knowledge of diagnosis and treatment to address one?s health issues. Employing Sharon is an excellent investment in one?s self and one?s health.
- Pros: incredibly smart, well-taught, continually taking more classes,well-versed in the practices of herbs
- Cons: none
Amazing and helpful with me.
by iltjar
If I hadn?t heard such wonderful things about Sharon Sherman and her acupuncture skills I wouldn?t have found an acupuncturist to help me through my chemotherapy treatments. I?m so glad I did. Not only did she help me with the chemo but she explained what was happening to my body and what she was doing to balance me out.She dealt with side effects of my chemo treatment too. I was amazed when I mentioned that I had a headache and she got rid of. Same thing with Montezuma?s Revenge. Years later I went back for help with a back ache I couldn?t shake until Sharon worked on it.If I sound like I think she works miracles that?s because that?s what I think and that?s what she does! She?s very understated in taking credit for how she helps one. If I had her talent I?d be shouting it from the mountaintop.She?s a very caring person with a great sense of humor ? and she knows what to do. Her treatments are worth every penny. Stop reading this and set up an appointment with her NOW
- Pros: caring, understanding, trustworth, kind
- Cons: none

Sharon is an amazing acupuncturist!
by metoland
She has helped me with many health issues over the past five years. Sharon is great with treating allergies and pain... (she can give it or take it away!) my neck, shoulders and back are all the better because of her. She is also great when "it isn't THAT kind of pain"... the nerve pain in my legs from Sarcoidosis is almost completely gone. Sharon is kind, caring and a good listener. I feel that I am in good hands with her as my practitioner.
- Pros: Effective treatment, soothing atmosphere, easy parking
Best acupuncture
by dhoffman204
Sharon Sherman gives best needles! I even crave the ones that hurt. Let me explain before you get the wrong idea. Stick me anywhere because the pain relief is not to be believed. I've suffered for years with migraines, bad right shoulder, and 2 herniated discs. Sharon's the only practitioner who can give me relief for any extended period of time. Needles coupled with micro-current therapy -- now that's pain-free nirvana!
- Pros: office ambience, easy free parking
Incredible Acupuncture!
by col422
I first went to Sharon Sherman about 6 months ago for horrible neck, shoulder and back pain. I was a little nervous about the idea of all the needles, but Sharon eased my nerves and my pain. I was amazed by the results of my first treatment and have been going back ever since. Sharon is a warm and compassionate person and truly cares about her clients. She's incredibly knowledgeable and is great about answering any questions you may have. Sharon's treatments have been the best thing to happen to be in a very long time! I come out feeling like a brand new person everytime. Sharon is amazing - I highly recommend Empirical Point to everyone and anyone - it is a incredible acupuncture experience!
- Pros: Effective
- Cons: none
