Just following up here. Before I saw Ray I thought I was going to have to cancel my surf trip since the previous guy said I tore my shoulder. Instead, I'm surfing not just pain free but I actually feel better because the previous chronic tightness I had in my shoulder is gone! I also know what to do if it comes back. Can't believe it! Like I said, I never write reviews, much less post updates, but I'm just so stoked I had to.

Dr Roman has been an absolute godsend to my physical well-being and overall ongoing restoration. When the ongoing pain of my trapezius knots had become unbearable, and traditional massage only seemed to worsen it, with no one else to turn to, I found Dr Roman - with a few recommendations to get me to make an appointment and seek out his therapy. And the result was that, over the course of six months, he has changed my life. His instructive stretching regimen, dry needling techniques and cupping have completely transformed my body from being frequently full of knots and tension, to a complete

I've seen Ray for two injuries now as a collegiate athlete and can say he's the best in the business! He's super knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely wants his patients to get better. His combination of integrative techniques has made the difference compared to previous treatments I've had prior to seeing Ray.

Ray is AMAZING!
As a former collegiate athlete I have dealt with chronic neck and shoulder issues that have resulted in ongoing pain and discomfort. I attended my first sports acupuncture session with Ray and it was even better than I could have hoped for. He took time to listen to my symptoms, explain what was happening to cause my symptoms, and explained every part of his treatment to me. When I got off the table into my car it was the best I had felt in MONTHS, and I felt even better the following days!
I cannot say enough about Ray, and I would recommend this place to anyone!

Here's a quick FYI on Balance Point Therapy.
I herd about this place through a friend that has had excruciating pain in her neck and back from an injury that happened years ago. She started seeing Ray for her symptoms and had amazing relief and lasting results.
I contacted Ray immediately and started seeing him on a regular basis for my back and neck pain, not to mention I had reoccurring sciatic pain. I couldn't tell you how reassuring he was from day one and how informative he is about what he's doing or why you're experiencing pain as well as how he can fix you.

Ray and Balance Point Therapy have changed my life! For years I suffered from chronic knee pain and accompanying hamstring issues. After 5+ years of physical therapy (and several physical therapists) and 2 knee surgeries I found Ray. I am now back to running and rigorous physical training for the military. Ray is the absolute best in the business. He is extremely knowledgeable about the human body and skilled at what he does. Ray has multiple techniques (acupuncture, dry needling, cupping, manual therapy) he utilizes to give your body what it needs. He always communicates with his patience to gather

I was referred to Ray about a month ago and met with him to get help with chronic nerve pain. I've been struggling to get out of pain for about 1.5 years and feel like I've tried everything: physical therapy, massage, dietary changes, cryotherapy, chiropractic work, yoga, etc. I also had x-rays, MRIs, and about every other procedure you can imagine. You name it I tried it. All of which had a very minimal impact on my symptoms. Being skeptical of all of these professionals, Ray was the only one who I can truly say understood what was causing my pain and knew how to treat it. After

Ray is extremely knowledgeable in his craft! This was my first acupuncture experience and Ray was able to educate me about my body's limitations and the reasons behind his chosen treatment methods. His integrative technique of acupuncture, cupping, and ART was beautifully blended together to improve my low back pain and tightness after just one session! Ray is an expert and I highly recommend his services! Thanks again!

Ray is amazing!
I have suffered from chronic back pain for 10+ years. I would rely heavily on ibuprofen, tiger balm, and heat to help alleviate my symptoms. Thankfully, I was referred to Dr. Ray Roman and he has changed my life. I am now on my way to living a life free from back pain.
Ray is extremely thorough and knowledgeable. Upon my first visit, he educated me on how to better help my symptoms without further aggravating my back. A lot of what I had been doing was only further aggravating my symptoms. This information was extremely helpful.

I honestly haven't even seen Ray but I talked to him on the phone for about 15 minutes and he answered all of my questions about my knee injury. I kind of talked his ear off and kept asking questions beyond his services and he still answered all of them. He didn't have to, so I really appreciated his help. I can tell that he's really knowledgeable. Thanks Ray!!

I came to Ray for chronic hamstring pain and after dealing with this pain for about 8 months - and having tried everything else, from yoga to stretching to chiropractic visits to standard physical therapy - his use of integrative sports acupuncture after just 2 sessions already has me feeling so much better than I have in months! Ray is super smart and I would recommend him to anyone dealing with chronic muscle pain!

I have been dealing with shoulder pain for over two years now through my basketball until I went in and saw Ray. I had two surgery's in June of 2016 and 2017 to repair my labrum in my shoulder one of which was to fix a labrum that was 7/8th torn. Every since the initial injury pain has always been a problem and I was only able to manage it so much through physical therapy. I went in and was treated by Ray and this is the best my shoulder has felt since before my injury. It feels great I have little to no pain at all thanks to him. Athlete or not I would highly recommend Ray to anyone seeking that

I have been working with Ray for a couple years now. He has helped me recover from injuries and general aches and pains. I always make it a point to see him before any competition I have to get me body and mind right. Love that he utilizes different techniques including dry needling, acupuncture, cupping, soft tissue manipulation, and stretching to create the most optimal healing environment. Any body that cares about their body will benefit tremendously from everything that Ray has to offer. A must stop for any and all athletes out there.

Balance Point Therapy is awesome! Ray is knowledgeable and passionate about what he does and it shows in his work. I play professional football and I have used Ray multiple times, both during the season and in the offseason, to help my body get back to full health so I can perform at the high level that is required to succeed as a professional athlete. Balance Point therapy is a big part of my regimen, and every time I leave a session I always feel better than before I came!

I've been dealing with chronic foot and leg pain stemming from a tear in my calf a year ago. I was wearing a boot, taking a ton of ibuprofen daily, and couldn't do a full shift at work because of the pain I was having. It took a toll on me, physically, mentally, and emotionally. I stopped doing the things I love...chase my kids, working out, going on walks with my wife, and I was gaining more and more weight. I was miserable.
And then I met Ray, and everything changed. I felt immediate relief after the first visit. He showed me how to tape my foot to provide relief throughout the day

Ray is definitely one of the best in the business! One of the most knowledgeable and hardworking individuals in the industry; he really cares for his patients and does what he can to get them back to 100% again.
His holistic approach to identifying the problem and finding a solution is what separates him from the rest. A combination of cupping, acupuncture, and manual therapy really helped alleviate my shoulder pain. I've heard nothing but good things about Ray but never had any work done by him until now. I'm glad he helped me out!

Ray Roman is one of the best physical therapist and acupuncturist I have ever worked with. He takes time to get to know the patient and the pain they are suffering. Recovering from an ACL and a scar tissue removal, Ray really helped me find what was needed to recover faster and without pain. I highly recommend Balance Point Therapy.

Ray at Balance Point Therapy is an amazing clinician. His passion and extensive experience in the field allow him to create a very personalized approach for his clients. The first time I ever received accupuncture and cupping was from Ray for a chronic shoulder injury. He took the time to educate me on his process, making it more meaningful and comfortable. After, I experienced less discomfort and higher range of motion. I was so satisfied with the results I went back to Ray for treatment on my calf after running the Boston Marathon. Would definitely recommend Balance Point Therapy!

Ray is the man! He should be considered for the most interesting man in the world! His knowledge is through the roof when it comes to healing methods; Eastern, Western, Ray knows about it and uses it to heal people every day. I have had the pleasure of being treated by Ray on several occasions for meniscus irritation and lack of range of motion in my knee, along with low back pain.
During the visits Ray has used acupuncture methods, cupping, active release techniques and other manual therapy. Afterwards I always feel amazing. My knee and back both feel amazing! Not only does he give great treatment

Was recommended to Dr. Ray Roman thru a friend. I normally run 3-4 miles a day and recently developed a painful, recurring calf strain. He worked on my calf for about 30 minutes with some gentle massage and then acupuncture. Being my first time, I was a tiny bit hesitant. But I can assure you that there was no pain whatsoever. I felt a little soreness afterwards, but I woke up the next morning wanting to run again, it was that good. It was as if the strain had never happened. Ray is extremely professional and informative and I would go back immediately for any other sports injuries.
