"It is truly a hopeless feeling to be in pain every day. I cannot tell you how liberating it is to be free of that bondage. I praise God for the healing found in acupuncture and for the work Matthew Miller is doing..." read full text >>>

Kristina May,
Preschool Director, Lynchburg, VA


"I have not experienced a significant headache in over a month and am thrilled with the results. I like to consider myself a very logical person and not prone to hysteria or placebo effects. I entered into this course of treatment somewhat skeptically at the urging of my wife, and after having tried just about everything else. It is wonderful now to be headache free and not to have to miss work or struggle through a day in severe pain. I am very grateful to Matt for his help and would urge anyone with problems such as mine, or other conditions amenable to this type of treatment, to consider acupuncture as a viable option..." read full text >>>

"After the first treatment, I felt something happening in my body and I had a greater ability to raise my right arm. I have had 5 treatments and I certify a miracle has taken place." read full text >>>

Rev. Joe T. Lindsoe
Lynchburg, VA


"After the first treatment, my pain improved. There continued to be improvement following each successive treatment. After nine acupuncture treatments, I am now almost 100% pain free and I am very grateful that I have not had to go on strong pain killers. OTC’s were not touching the pain at all. I am planning to get periodic acupuncture treatments in the future. Alternative treatments such as acupuncture are well worth considering and I am grateful to Matt Miller for his attention to this problem. I highly recommend it..." read full text >>>

Craft Shop Owner, Lynchburg, VA


"My internist had given me a cortisone shot and some pain pills that did not help and then suggested the next step would be “an invasive” procedure. Thanks to Matthew's acupuncture treatments, my pain went away relatively quickly but thanks to his advice that I should follow a treatment that is not simply one or two sessions, I kept this from coming back in the next couple of months. I hope everyone who is experiencing pain will try this traditional form of healing and approach to treatment. I will call Matthew first next time!" read full text >>>

Janice Rice,
Professor, Lynchburg College


"Now, four months later, my neck is doing great. I have had no shooting pains to my head, something which happened at least a couple times a month before I started acupuncture treatment. The tingling in my hand is almost completely gone. It only comes occasionally when I lie on my arm in a certain way, and then only lasts for a second or two. My lower back is fine now and I was even able to shovel snow without pain or weakness. I am very impressed with the effectiveness of Matt Miller's acupuncture treatments and my skepticism is now gone along with my pain..." read full text >>>

"I had chronic 'cannon's ear' ringing (or like crickets) for several decades ever since my military service; acupuncture has lowered this to a now tolerable level. And more recently, I had had an additional ringing that accompanied a most-annoying 'pulsating' ear discomfort. I was twice treated by my regular physician. Each time I was prescribed medication & each time it improved slightly -- as long as I was on the medication; as soon as I stopped, it would return as original. After only one session of acupuncture/herbal treatment with Matt Miller & Wang Yao at East West Acupuncture, it was completely gone & I have not had it since! I've never had any treatment that worked so quickly -- and with such success."

"After my first acupuncture treatment, I felt immediate relief in my fingers. The knee also felt better immediately. For a day after the treatment, my injured hand felt just like the other hand. It was a miracle! The pain came back slowly, but I still felt better for several days. After my second treatment a week later, the hand felt good for 4 days. I was able to move it more easily, though I still did not have a lot of strength in my hand. I continued to improve with each treatment. After just 4 treatments, I was able to make the bed and wash and iron clothes. I was able to cut my pain medications in half..." read full text >>>

"After the first treatment, I began to notice that the hip was not hurting as much. The leg would still become numb when I lay down for a while. After the second treatment a week later, the pain in the hip was reduced and I slept very well. The numbness in my leg went down as well. Now it is four months later and my hip and leg are doing fantastic. I sleep well all through the night. I also used to have some arthritic pain in my fingers before beginning acupuncture treatment. Matt treated those as well and they are much less painful now. Thank you so much, Matt!" read full text >>>

Francine Stapley

"Even though I had tried physical therapy and chiropractic treatment, I still had chronic pain. The pain medications weren't helping any longer, and they were doing damage to my internal organs and causing other physical problems.That was when I was introduced to acupuncturist Dr. Matthew Miller. I felt relief after just my first visit. I honestly believe that I would have absolutely been healed 'pain free' if I had tried acupuncture much earlier. I recommend acupuncture to any individual suffering from pain." read full text >>>

K. Thomas

"After less than 4 weeks in which I received a series of nine treatments, I went from ten episodes of diarrhea per day to only one or two. The blood and mucous in my stool were gone, as were the abdominal cramps, pain and salty taste in my mouth." read full text >>>

Ann
Lynchburg, VA


"I was recovering from emergency surgery to re-attach four fingers of my left hand.... I took as much pain medicine as the prescription allowed for, but still had major discomfort and unpleasant side effects... a solitary half-hour's acupuncture treatment and a good night's sleep dispensed with strong pain medicine entirely! I needed no more than a headache's dose of ibuprofen for a couple of days, and have used no pain medicine of any description since. I can make no claim to understand how acupuncture works, but I can happily testify to the results. Thank you, Matt and Wang Yao." read full text >>>

I experienced variable improvement that has stabilized as lasting improvement with regard to the following:

  • moderate to severe allergy symptoms (sinus congestion and drainage; throat irritation and coughing), as well as severe daily eye redness and irritation. I had been dependent on medication for both problems at the start of treatments. Now, 5 months later, I am totally off prescription medicine for both conditions and use over-the-counter eye drops only occasionally—mostly for lubrication rather than redness.
  • highly bothersome redness and heat in my face (a strange chronic vascular flaring that was neither rosacea nor “hot flashes”).
  • sense of well being. This was noticeable after the 1st treatment, but reached a point after the 4th treatment that made me stop in my tracks and take notice. I had never felt so fantastically comfortable inside my own skin in my entire life. At the time, I wondered if this is what a release of endorphins feels like. I indeed paused for a moment of silence.
  • strengthening in the inner sense of psychological balance so that both autonomy and attunement to environment were heightened.
  • improved memory

Thanks to Matt and Wang Yao from a satisfied and grateful client.

"I happened to run into a friend whose husband had been a patient of Dr. Matthew Miller. She recommended Matthew most highly and attributed her husband’s recovery (from a neck problem) entirely to his acupuncture treatments. I had always been interested in the idea of acupuncture so I decided to call Matthew. He was very encouraging, telling me that they had great success in China treating patients with nerve damage, even patients who had suffered strokes. I made my first appointment and thus began a series of treatments which have just been completed. I am thrilled to say that I am back, not only doing all my daily activities, but also playing tennis (even serving!) and golf!..." read full text >>>

"I just wanted to write and let you know how happy I am with the service I got at East West Acupuncture... The results have been fantastic. After just the first treatment, my blood pressure dropped back down to the low/normal levels I hadn't experienced in months, and after a few weeks of treatments, my blood pressure adjusted to these consistently low/normal levels. I am so glad I gave acupuncture a chance. The treatments were very relaxing and they absolutely did the trick."

"Without surgery, you were able to design and implement a two-month acupuncture treatment program that was painless and effective. My knee is like new and no longer acts up on long driving trips or when I get out of bed to start each day. I thank you for your specialized skill and training that created this positive result in my life..."

"After three unsuccessful nerve block procedures for pain in my back, knee and foot, I went to see Matthew Miller for acupuncture treatment. I was apprehensive at the thought of many needles, but Matthew immediately put me at ease. He told me at the first session that he could help me. Matthew and his wife Wang Yao relaxed me with their sincere caring and knowledge. Thanks to Matthew's acupuncture treatment, I feel better today than I have felt in 9 months..."

"Since beginning acupuncture treatments almost a year ago with Matthew Miller, LAC, I have experienced life-changing results. I had been experiencing knee, shoulder and arm pain for over 10 years... I had been to my medical doctor and received cortisone. I had been to my orthopedist for ultrasound, x-ray, MRI’s, etc. Nothing was working. I decided to give acupuncture a try and it was the best decision I could have made. I can say that when I first came to Matthew’s office, I was a true skeptic of the possible benefits of acupuncture. Without a doubt, I am now a believer! Words cannot possibly convey the gratitude due the one who has helped me to retrieve my life back from pain!"

"No one could have told me I would ever have this much success -- especially on conditions that I have suffered with for decades -- or that acupuncture would resolve them. I feel twenty years younger & I heartily would recommend Matt Miller & Wang Yao (East West Acupuncture)! They not only have exceptional training, but provide a professional yet relaxing atmosphere & proved very patient & encouraging to me."

Forest, VA


"The pain was immense, keeping me up most nights, adversely affecting my ability to do my job... The results are incredible. The pain subsided within the first couple of treatments, and I am currently returning once a month, with no or very little pain in between treatments. The actual procedure is not painful, and as I have shared with Matt, I find the treatments completely relaxing. If you are suffering from knee pain, osteoarthritis and/or both, I encourage you to try the benefits of acupuncture. I'm thankful everyday that I did."

"I have had trigeminal neuralgia since 2002. This nerve disorder causes episodes of stabbing, electric shock-like pain in the face and forehead areas... In October 2008 I was recommended to go to Dr. Matthew Miller for acupuncture treatments. Since I started these, they have helped me greatly. I got off medication entirely in December 2008..."

"I am sending you this message as a special thank you for your kindness. You opened your doors for my husband when he was at his wit's end in pain. It was such a wonderful sight to see Johnny walk out of your office feeling so much better! Our family had seen how out of kilter he was and when we arrived back at their house... "a new man."... You have a true talent Dr. Miller and I hope that other families come to appreciate you as much as we have!"

"I began to see Dr. Miller primarily for massive headaches of which I was taking pills to control. I am happy to say that while I may have a headache every now and then, the intensity has been reduced greatly. It is no longer a debilitating event where I can’t really function at full capacity... I feel much better since starting acupuncture and would recommend it to those who have conditions and would like an alternative to a daily regimen of pills. Thank you to such a fine person who sees you as a whole person and conversely treats you as a whole person."

"Last October I developed a pain in my toes on my right foot which steadily became worse. I went to three doctors and tried various remedies and was diagnosed in April with Morton's Neuroma... I was told that the only 'solution' would probably be to have surgery to remove the nerve. However, that would have left me with a 'destabilized foot' and possible phantom pain. Instead of that I began treatments with Dr. Miller and, after five treatments, I am pain-free and back in my regular shoes! I also feel really good in general and I am so grateful that this gentle, non-invasive and very affordable intervention has made such a difference in my condition. I highly recommend East West Acupuncture. Thank you all so much!"
