“Inger’s treatments have significantly improved my life over the past four years. For years before that, I dealt with multiple issues that were all stress-related. My back and neck were always stiff and hurting, my jaw was locked, and I had difficulty speaking, and with only a few treatments Inger was able to relieve me of that pain. I have been able to maintain a healthy life, free of that pain, by simply visiting her once or twice a year after that. I tried several different avenues prior to acupuncture and I also tried other acupuncturists, but Inger’s unique approach was the one that I needed. Inger takes the time to listen to her patients, and she really tries to understand what the pain is and why it’s happening. It has been wonderful working with her, and I can’t thank her enough.”

“I’ve had a long history of back pain and consider myself to be somewhat of a connoisseur, able to discern nuances of various types of pains and interpret possible sources and causes. Recently, a new variety of muscle pain came upon me at work — it was more of a tightness and persistent discomfort. Over two days, it got worse to the point of distraction and was limiting my ability to stand straight and walk. A chiropractor I’ve visited on occasion wasn’t available and my doctor was out and I couldn’t get an immediate prescription for heavy pain killers. That’s when I decided to see Inger — you see, acupuncture had failed me in the past so it wasn’t my first solution. After just one visit, one very relaxing and pleasant visit, the muscle pain was gone and my mobility restored! It’s been a few weeks and the muscle pain that came out of nowhere has not come back. I am definitely going to return to Inger first for healing and advice next time.”

“I am such a fan of Inger! She is a great listener and offers logical and supportive suggestions to me each time I visit. Her skills in acupuncture have improved the quality of my life. My stress level has certainly decreased! I see each visit as one of the few times every few weeks that is just mine. I have often come to Inger’s office highly stressed and anxious, and each time when I leave I am calmer, more relaxed, and ready to get back to my busy life with serenity and focus. She has worked with me on soreness in the hip that I was experiencing. Since working with Inger I have not had the intense pain that I endured. She listens, she thinks about the course of action for whatever ailment is holding me back, she shares her plan of action, be it acupuncture, cupping, etc., and she solves the problem. She is simply wonderful, and I’ll be going to Inger for a long time to come.”

I also feel like I have a personal health consultant that I talk to regularly which keeps me on track and in touch with my body. Inger is professional, smart, intuitive and an excellent Chinese medicine practitioner. I can’t thank you enough!”

“Thank you, Inger! I have to admit, I was a bit anxious about having an acupuncture treatment and not knowing what to expect, but you were so professional and kind. You walked me through every step and when it came time to inserting the needles, I hardly felt a thing. Thanks to you I feel more relaxed and focused. I will definitely refer you to my friends and family.”

“I feel very privileged to have access to Inger’s excellent services. In my sessions with her she provides a sanctuary that allows me to relax, heal, and reconnect with my body and spirit. I feel renewed and transformed each time I leave her office. She is professional, tactful, caring, thoughtful, and a great listener. Inger has helped me to understand my health in a way I would have never thought possible. I highly recommend that you experience Inger’s services for yourself.”

“I feel so fortunate to have found Inger!
She was treating my husband for chemotherapy and radiation side effects and he was responding so well that I asked him to inquire if she could help me with the pesky hot flashes I’ve been having.
Now I go weekly, and not only has the intensity of the hot flashes lessened, but I have less migraines, and my sore back muscles feel much better.

“I came to SIOM in the summer of 2005 to undergo treatments for fertility. Being 40 years old, I was experiencing a little difficulty becoming pregnant. My case was assigned to Inger Johnson. Inger gave me acupuncture treatments and what I lovingly refer to as ‘Icky Herbs’ specifically chosen for where I was in my cycle. I was also diagnosed as a bit anemic, and Inger counseled me on some dietary adjustments. After three months I had my first cycle with egg-white cervical fluid, the proper fluid for conception, and I became pregnant! Inger continued to treat me through the first trimester. She gave me acupuncture to support my body and the pregnancy and also to help alleviate some of the morning sickness. I returned to Inger near the end of the pregnancy in the hopes that she could help to turn the baby from breach presentation to head down. She treated me then with acupuncture and moxa sticks. Her treatments were very helpful with the swelling and some of my symptoms of Gestational Diabetes, but we were unsuccessful in turning the baby. Even my OB/GYN and her invasive methods were unsuccessful. In June, our baby girl was delivered safely by C-section, just as perfect as she could be. I truly feel that without Inger’s care I would not have become pregnant. She also helped make my pregnancy a lot more comfortable.”

“I love coming to Inger for acupuncture. Her treatments have helped to regulate my cycles and increase my fertility. She also has helped my insomnia, reflux and low back pain. Her combination of gentle acupuncture, herbs and tui-na have been effective in restoring my body’s natural balance, and have decreased my stress in general. She knew when the treatments had maximized my fertility and suggested that my partner and I start trying to conceive. I became pregnant on the first try! I appreciate Inger’s passion for acupuncture, dedication to her patients, and the specific treatment plan tailored to my needs. Thanks, Inger!”

“I found Inger through a Google search, and although I think acupuncturists are kind of like dentists in that you really would want a recommendation from from someone you trust, I made a leap of faith. I was looking for assistance with smoking cessation. Before anything else, I appreciated Inger’s candor with respect to what I could expect from treatment. Over a year and a half later, I’m still not smoking, and I’m so grateful to Inger for her assistance. It’s one of the best things I’ll ever do for myself, and she contributed greatly to my success. She is always so gracious, perceptive, knowledgeable and kind. I still see her for relaxation, and I always feel so much more peaceful after her treatment. She really is the best!”

“For over 10 years I suffered from frequent headaches and migraines. On one particular day my migraine became so severe that I had to fiand help. I walked by Inger’s office on the off-chance that someone could assist me on the spot. Inger accepted me immediately as a new patient and took the time to discuss my issues, explain the work that she could do, show me the supplies she would use, and treat me. Inger made me feel so comfortable and safe that I did not feel light headed after my first treatment (or any treatment thereafter) — even though I have a fear of needles. I found it very surprising that after my first treatment, my migraine became less severe. Over the next several months, Inger helped my migraines disappear and got my body back on track! Her combination of acupuncture and tui na (chinese massage) were perfect. I didn’t have to go to a massage therapist…she made my life easier.
Overall, Inger understands that I live a busy and stressful life. She knows what is needed to keep me performing at my best. Inger takes the time to listen to everything happening around me and to my body so that she can thoroughly treat me. Inger helped me realize that acupuncture and tui na are essential for keeping my body balanced. Visiting Inger is one of the best life-choices I’ve made.”

“I sought out treatment from Inger to manage symptoms related to anxiety, depression, PMS, menopause. Every session provided instant relief from my symptoms, and the cumulative effects after several sessions were significantly noticeable. Inger’s kind, gentle approach to her work is reassuring to me as a patient. I feel supported and that she is partnering with me to find solutions to current issues during each, individual session. For a period of a few weeks I had been feeling pain in my upper arm that was not related to an injury. When I discussed it with Inger she provided treatments that gave me immediate and sustained relief from the pain. While I do not have other resources to compare Inger’s practice against as this is my first experience with an acupuncturist, I could not be more pleased with her as a practitioner. I have recommended her to many people.”

“I have had a chronic earache for over two years. I went to three different ENTs and even had deviated septum surgery, and nothing helped. Finally after I had an MRI, which didn’t uncover anything, I made an appointment with Inger. After just two treatments the earache was almost gone. And other side benefits are amazing. I have frequent bouts of discomfort from herniated discs. Now my back has never felt stronger and the pain is gone. My overall health, balance, and wellbeing is improving with every treatment, and I intend to stay with Inger as an integral part of my overall wellness program.”

“I came to see Inger after a bad rib injury from playing soccer. After suffering through two weeks of pain, Inger’s first treatment left me almost pain-free a few days later. After a follow-up treatment the next week, I was able to play through a complete game and the next day, I didn’t even feel any of the normal muscle aches that I used to have after each game! I was skeptical about the efficacy of acupuncture, but she made this over-the-hill athlete a believer!”

“I started seeing Inger for general wellness a little over three weeks ago. The focus has narrowed more to my digestion and gastrointestinal issues. In the course of only three treatments I feel so much better!!!
I felt immediately at ease with Inger; her manner is very pleasant and inviting. Her ability to ask questions, correlate the information I gave, and decide upon a treatment that worked in such a short time is like a miracle for me. The combination of needle treatments, cupping, herbs, and nutrition advice is exactly what I need. Treatment time is very relaxing for me — today I fell completely asleep!
I am so glad that I found Inger and that I have started receiving treatments from her. I look forward to continuing on my path to better health with Inger’s assistance.”

“I never put much faith in acupuncture, and it took me a very long time to finally give it a try, but I’m now convinced that Inger’s skillful techniques have helped me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her highly to anyone.
I was going through both chemotherapy and radiation, and Inger helped me tremendously with the nausea, loss of appetite and frustrated attitude that hounded me daily.
I now look forward to my weekly session, and the Tui-Na massage at the end of each treatment is awesome.

“I started treatments with Inger when she was a student at SIOM and have been a patient since she started her own practice. My reasons for seeking treatment were primarily due to insomnia and carpal tunnel syndrome. I was tired of feeling like a zombie even after getting a full night’s sleep with the assistance of Ambien and concerned about getting hooked on the wretched sleeping pills I was prescribed. At first I was apprehensive about acupuncture, but after a few treatments, in addition to my sleep patterns getting more in tune, I actually started feeling better mentally and more balanced in general. Although the treatments for sleep are ongoing and in addition to acupuncture require dedication to eating right and other lifestyle changes, treatments for my carpal tunnel syndrome produced rapid results. I’ve also taken some of Inger’s advice on eating, which helps my days get started off on the right foot. I’ve found that Inger’s passion for her profession and concern for my well being have really made a positive impact on the way I feel mentally and physically, and I would encourage anyone seeking alternative forms of treatment or wanting to feel more balanced in general to give Inger a chance.”

“I’ve been to many acupuncture practitioners in my life … most were ‘meh’ … nice experience, but not amazing. Inger — brings amazing. For me — being the “A.D.D.” poster child, when I am on her table during a session, is the only time EVER that my toes aren’t wiggling like mad. I have no explanation how it works… it just does, and it’s the most relaxing thing in the world for me. I can’t stay focused to meditate, but I can meditate fine during the session.
Additionally, my wife never tried acupuncture until earlier this year, after my trying for years to get her to experience it, and after one visit she’s a huge fan, and is even going tomorrow. For her, it’s more calming than a massage, and with stress and anxiety, she feels the most relaxed then, and there are a ton of other positives to working with Inger as well.”

“After spending nearly a year dealing with what I thought was uncontrollable asthma and several different doctors who were unhelpful, I was introduced to Inger Johnson and acupuncture. Before working with Inger, I had trouble sleeping through the night due to shortness of breath, I couldn’t keep up with a regular workout routine, and even walking the dog would require the use of an inhaler (which was hardly a quick fix). From our first meeting Inger asked thoughtful questions and listened to each answer attentively. I truly felt that she was completely committed to helping me find a long-term solution to manage my asthma. We worked together on developing a personal plan and within a couple of weeks I was sleeping comfortably and playing a full soccer match without needing to use my inhaler. I know that Inger’s assistance and care has been a tremendous contribution to my well-being, and I strongly recommend Inger’s service to anyone.”

"Inger is an incredibly skilled and trusted healer in my life! She is a licensed Acupuncturist and Herbal
Chinese Medicine Provider. Her treatments are specific, thoughtful, and effective in creating greater
harmony and wellness in the body, often diminishing nagging and/or painful symptoms of imbalance.
Her approach is dynamic combining acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping technique, and wellness
as it best applies per patient. Inger is specialized in working with patients who are experiencing stress, anxiety, digestive issues, and female reproductive concerns. When I first started care
with Inger I was excited, but also very nervous as I am not fond of needles. Her technique,
personality, and energy immediately calmed my nerves and made for the most relaxing experience!"

working with her! I really feel like she is an advocate for what I know is best for me, and
that feels really good! Inger is a very good listener and extremely thorough. I have a lot
of respect for her, and I can tell she has a lot of respect for her profession and her
clients. She is generous, kind, and super funny!! And her treatments work! I also love
how excited she gets about Chinese herbs. It's almost like I said a secret code word,
and she's revealed all this magic. She is very into what she does, and knows her stuff
like the back of her hand. I feel really special that I get to work with Inger. Thank you
