Blacksburg Acupuncture Clinic

John is the best. I never had acupuncture before, but I have been going to him every few weeks for about 6 years now. He's great at both dry needling for physical therapy and acupuncture. If something hurts (shoulder, knee, heel, etc), a few trips to see John often improves it. Or if I just need to reduce stress, he dry needles the areas where I tend to tighten up in my neck and shoulders and then "lets me cook" for a bit with static needles. Highly recommend!

John Thacker is an excellent physical therapist. Once my neurosurgeon and neurologist figured out that dry needling would alleviate the severe pain in my neck, John has been treating me for two years with great success. I would hesitate to recommend his services to anyone who needed this type of specialized therapy. It has worked when nothing else has.

John has helped me so much over the past few years, from my tight traps, shoulder and neck issues, my overworked arms and now my TMJ! Dry needling is not for the faint of heart but it's been a life saver for me! He is an awesome person too!

I have been going to acupuncturists for over 20 years, and they all have different styles. That said, John is a true healer. From the moment I spoke with him on the phone, it was obvious that he cares about his patients. He took the time to listen to my concerns, many as they were, and immediately started working on my incessant back pain from surgery earlier this year. I felt comfortable with him right away and experienced relief as well. I have no doubt that as he continues to work on my back, I will be set right shortly. I am grateful to have found him, as this was not my experience with other people in B-burg. Whether you have muscular or emotional issues, I would highly recommend John for your comfort and relief.

I cannot say enough good about John. I have been going to him for 16 years and he has helped me tremendously. He deserves more than 5 stars.
