How to beat the gym!

Posted August 15, 2014

by Carl Parnham RMT As I grow older (yes, I am only 25, but I feel like I’m getting older), I feel the stresses of life starting to take over. I’m working, and paying off my student loan, and my schedule is becoming filled with more resposiblities (my clients tell me it only gets worse when you take on more with family and as the career evolves). I notice now…

Gord, at Acupuncture Turning Point, creates a warm, relaxing and inviting atmosphere at the clinic. His philosophy about health and wellness and life comes from a place of whole body/mind awareness - covering mind, body, emotions and spirit this is a refreshing change from western healthcare beliefs.Gord has provided me relief from pain and the release of tension to allow healing to begin/continue, with both needling, cupping and taping. I always feel comfortable, safe and at ease when in Gord's care. And I always feel a sense of release and renewed strength after treatments.

Gord has a great understanding of the human body, his knowledge of TCM to accurately apply his needle at the right spot is excellent. Take the time to listen to him and share his knowledge, sometimes the message is more important than the treatment :).

Acupuncturist Gord is excellent. He listens to your concerns; provides excellent options and is very diligent in his treatment. Very friendly and explains what he is doing as he is applying his craft. Highly recommended.

I went there today for the first time to get Accupuncture for my knee with Gord. I had a wonderful experience from the moment I entered the receptionist is really kind and Gord worked on my knee and listened to everything I said. I will definitely go back I didn't feel rushed and my knee felt better I will definitely be back.

It sounds like Gordon is not only a skilled acupuncturist but also has a talent for storytelling, which adds an extra dimension to his practice. His ability to address areas of concern and alleviate pain effectively makes him quite impressive!

1710173535

This place is amazing. I randomly found it on Google as I was looking for a new place to get my acupuncture done so I thought I’d check it out. Gord not only cares about his clients recovery but he also wants us to be well knowledgeable about how our bodies work and the benefits of acupunture. I would recommend this place to everyone.Ps. He has a beautiful living wall in the waiting room for patients to enjoy!

1st visit here, and with acupuncture in general, and I left extremely happy.Gord was extremely knowledgeable, utilized multiple different relief techniques for my back pain (cupping, acupuncture, and electro-puncture, athletic tape), provided me with additional materials to attempt toitigate pain moving forward on my own, and only recommend a follow up if I thought I needed it.I'd recommend him and his practice to anyone, and if I need additional treatment, I will gladly be returning.

Gord is an incredibly knowledgeable and kind practitioner that I’ve been seeing for acupuncture for 10+ years. I always leave my session feeling better and inspired by our conversation. Acupuncture treatments from the Turning Point has benefitted my overall health and has improved some physical discomfort in my muscles.

Very very pleased with my first time experience with Gord. I went in for acupuncture therapy but it was WAY more than that. He truly is in it to genuinely help people, whether it be one thing or another, he is all in. Really takes the time to get to know you and dig deep into how to REALLY help you. Not just a quick fix and out the door. I felt heard and really connected throughout my entire session. Gord is a very educated, compassionate and knowledgeable man.

1706909172

Gordon is amazing. He is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. I can tell he loves what he does and is extremely passionate about helping people. He took the time to get to know me and treated me as a whole. I went in with two concerns I wanted help with but he ended up helping me with many others. I left feeling so supported and inspired. I highly recommend seeing him!

Had to bring my mom in because of her back issues. Gord accommodated and agreed to help early morning. He was so kind throughout, made sure my mom was okay. He even showed us exercises to be completed to get rid of the pain. He’s gone above and beyond for us, highly recommended

Great first experience today, my back has completely loosened up and while we have some other issues to solve as well I'm sure Gord will figure it out with his diligence and true care for his craft.

I have visited Dr. Grant recently and as usual he went above and beyond addressing my recent shoulder issues!Above regular maintenance with acupuncture session and cupping he spent great deal of time working on my rotator cuff and supraspinatus! He is a mountain of knowledge!I highly recommend Acupuncture Turning Point and Dr.Grant!CheersMarcin

"Gordon is amazing! After my first session with him, I already noticed a difference in my lower back pain. Highly recommend!"

1692902385

I could hardly walk with my nearly completely destroyed knees, they were so bad that even my family doctor and physiotherapist after seeing my MRI results were all shocked I wasn’t in a wheelchair, crutches or on pain killers!After 4 sessions with Gord and my massage therapist my knees have improved significantly, to the point I can even do light sprinting and jogging again!

1691549368

Very good Treatment Provided By Gordon. I had been to the Clinic for Treatment of lower back pain. Very good suggestions provided with Future Exercises And Steps to Follow.
