When I first came to Sharon for hip pain I could barely get up a stairwell or walk very far with out a lot of pain. After consecutive acupuncture sessions with Sharon focusing on that area I can walk relatively good with out pain and yes, get up the stairs! This has been such a great experience for me. I would recommend this to anyone experiencing pain and looking for some help to heal. I was told I should have surgery and at my age I didn't want to go there. Feeling the results from the sessions with Sharon I know I don't need surgery and I will be able to walk and function without pain.

I started going to Sharon Sherman many months ago for help with tinnitus. Sharon was so reassuring and welcoming. She has a beautiful office and is very safety conscious. She was able to help me and is so capable that I keep going back. I have really appreciate Sharon’s warmth and expertise during a difficult time.

My son was having severe lower back pain and upon a recommendation we tried Empirical Point. Let me preficit by saying, my son hates any kind of needle. Sharon quickly put him at ease, and my son felt amazing after the acupuncture. Beyond a doubt, this has helped him immensely. We will keep using Sharon on a regular basis. Her office is relaxing, clean, and she is knowledgeable in regard to herbal medicine and all things acupuncture.

I wanted to just write a quick review of Sharon's tele-accupuncture (new since Covid). I have been doing these zoom meetings with Sharon this summer, and I really love the appointments! I don't have to leave my house (I'm a high risk Covid person) and I can still talk through health concerns with Sharon and do the treatments.
These treatments are super easy to do, and I know it seems crazy, but I have felt the difference immediately. She shows you exactly what to do, and I am thrilled to feel like I am still being taken care of despite Covid. Definitely worth it for me.

I was referred to Sharon by a new acquaintance about ten years ago when I was unable to move my right arm more than a few inches due to a problem with my shoulder than hadn't responded to almost two years of other treatments. The problem was gone after my first visit. Since then, I've come to rely on her extensive knowledge and talent not only for pain relief, but for GI and numerous other issues as well. She's absolutely the best diagnostician I've ever encountered and genuinely cares about her clients. She responds quickly to my pleas for help and I'm always delighted to hear similar accolades

As a 66 year old man one of the greatest lessons I have learned in my life is around Self-care. My old playbook dictated that I take care of the task at hand, worked hard, provide and put myself low on the list of priorities. Self-care for the most part looked like buying and doing things. No more, my new playbook is about taking care of myself body, mind and soul, so I can take care of all the other things in my life.
Sharon Sherman has been a huge part of this new playbook and one of the greatest gifts in my life. She is exceptional at what she does, how she does it and has a clear commitment

I have seen Sharon professionally for the last 3-4 years - always with amazing results. I am a consultant and long distance runner with a busy schedule, and she is always accommodating for appointments, and genuinely interested in my issues. I have seen her for a variety of aches and pains over the years, including stress-related chronic pain and… more run-related injuries. Quads, adductors, achilles, neck, back, shin splints - her results are genuinely incredible to me. I am usually disappointed in myself that I didn't schedule her in sooner before my other less-than-successful attempts

You need to go here!. I first went to Sharon Sherman 8 years ago while I was experiencing knee pain. To say that I don't like needles is a understatement. Sharon soon put me at ease with a combination of professionalism, warmth, knowledge and humor. Since then she has treated me for back, stomach, sleep and general life issues with great success.… Sharon will take the time to get to know you, assess the problem that you are experiencing and fix it. It's that simple. It isn't magic, it is simply someone who has the knowledge and the compassion to heal. Sharon has been a blessing in my life
