Testimonials from Happy Clients
I was referred to Dr. Cherian because I have been in extreme and debilitating pain for a few months. When I arrived at my first visit, my pain level was a 6. At the end of my session, my pain level was a 2!! And it has since gone down to ZERO!! Praise God! I am so thankful that Dr. Cherian is allowing God to work through him in my healing process.
It has only been 8 days and between the sessions & the tea, I am confident that my diagnosis will be reversed and I will not need any surgery or temporary fixes!! I even feel energetic and I'm sleeping better as well. So many benefits to this process! These are bonuses that I hadn't even expected but am really appreciative for.
His rate is very reasonable too and more than worth it. Also, he's genuinely compassionate and truly listens and hears when you tell him your concerns.
Thank you so very much Dr. Cherian and may God continue to bless YOU as you bless others!!
I came to Houston Acupuncture & Primary Care seeking relief for weakness in my wrist and hands after being diagnosed by a hand specialist. Rather than opting for steroid injections or surgery, I decided to explore acupuncture as a treatment option. After completing over four sessions, I can confidently say I’ve experienced more than 80% improvement in my condition.
Dr. Cherian’s approach combines acupuncture and herbal tea, and this combination has worked remarkably well for me. Beyond addressing my primary concern, Dr. Cherian took the time during the initial intake to ask about other aspects of my health. He tailored my treatment to not only target my wrist and hands but also help with other issues, such as improving my sleep quality.
I am very satisfied with both the care and results I have received. Dr. Cherian is knowledgeable, attentive, and committed to holistic healing. If you’re considering acupuncture for pain relief or other health concerns, I highly recommend Houston Acupuncture & Primary Care!
