Awakenings Health was spawned from a post-acute rehabilitation center (Awakenings Health Institute) tending to the most severe orthopedic and neurological injuries/disorders. Founder, Laura Gries, was herself a spinal cord injury survivor. She was told she would never walk again, as her injury left her quadriplegic.
Yoga mOM gives a mama 45 minutes of her own time and space to clear her head. Yoga mOM allows mamas to take care of their bodies while creating a special bond with other moms free of guilt. The class consists of a full Hatha yoga and meditation practice for MOMS ONLY to allow a community to build and grow.

Dr. Gries is a magician. Years ago a bad car accident left me in constant pain and with limit mobility. Through his treatments, Dr. Gries gave me back my life. Aside from his vast acupuncture skills, Dr. Gries' knowledge of anatomy and physiology rivals any PT with whom I've worked. All of this is delivered in his loving brand of spiritual guidance and support.

I have been seeing Dr.Gries for several years. He is top notch. Someone who genuinely cares about you. He is an excellent partner on the journey to health and well-being. The issues I originally went to him for have long been resolved, and I continue to see him monthly to correct imbalances while they are still relatively minor. Plan to adjunct your treatment with with 2 or 3 chinese herb blends.
The administrative assistant Deana is a pleasure to interact with, and is also someone who genuinely cares. This is a great place to start for someone new to acupuncture and TCM.

Every interaction from my initial phone call through my last session has been a pleasure. As I was in the office a few times last year tending to imbalances that were derived from trauma and we got to the root of things. As an Energy worker it is always a challenge to find practitioners I can trust to meet me where I am. It is nice to know I know exactly who to call when I am experiencing imbalances in my physical form.
Customer service is impeccable, authentic concern for my wellbeing is evident, atmosphere is comforting, and the yoga studio is absolutely breathtaking.

There’s a reason Dr. Gries and Awakens Health was voted the triangle’s best Acupuncture clinic. I came there with severe chronic back pain and within a few treatments my pain reduced by 90% and in the past few months I’ve been mostly pain free!
I’ve found Dr. Gries to be a good listener, a keen observer and a highly skilled practitioner of Oriental Medicine.

When I first started with Adam My lower back hurt so badly that I was, at times nearly immobile. I also had pretty severe mid back pain from an old injury. His treatment regimen has made me more mobile and the pain level I now have is completely manageable and doesn't slow me down. Normal activity is now a breeze. I recently went on a ten day camping/hunting trip in the Virginia mountains and was able to move and hike without any problems at all. Sleeping in a tent on a camp cot did not cause any issues either. Incidentally, I am 79 years old. Trust this man to help.

At Awakenings Health each practitioner works together in a client centered approach focused on healing.
Our clinic combines acupuncture, yoga, Chinese medicine, nutritional counseling, life coaching and massage to help our clients minds and bodies.
I am proud to be a massage therapist at Awakenings Health. I appreciate that there is time in… between appointments so clients don't feel rushed out the door. I like that we don't harass people for memberships or add-ons or rope people into yearly commitments and fees. I enjoy giving my clients the full 60 or 90 minute sessions they deserve instead

Adam Gries is a treasured healthcare resource for me. His intelligent mind and broad base of knowledge are focused on doing what he loves, practicing Chinese medicine. In fall of 2016, Dr. Gries helped me overcome one of the most disturbing illnessness of my life by getting to the root cause when every other doctor I had seen wrote prescriptions for the symptoms. My personal decision is to use Dr. Gries as my primary source for healthcare with a focus on wellness. Insurance based healthcare is my secondary choice. I am confident this will save me money in the long run and provide a better

I recently received acupuncture from Dr. Gries for a tooth that I was told was probably dying. I had been having cold sensitivity as well as sensitivity when eating hard things. The dentist I saw told me that it will most likely abscess if I don't get a root canal. Looking at the x-rays though, I did not really see any glaring problem with my tooth...nor could the dentist point anything out that was obvious. I decided to try acupuncture.
Dr. Gries is extremely knowledgable, compassionate, and passionate about his work. I received one needle in my scalp and now, 3 days later, I have no
