The best decision I made at the beginning of 2025 was to begin working with Ryan Bemis At Crossroads Acpuncture. I originally sought his services for acupuncture, but soon found I’ve also benefited from his depth of knowledge in other modalities that open doors to releasing stress and feeling peace in these uncertain times

What does it feel like to get acupuncture? Dr. Bemis walks you through in this video

I went in with pain in most of my body, bearly able to climb stairs. I left feeling energized and free from pain. Ryan's calm demeanor and attention to my specific needs has kept me from needing any medication to control my previously chronic pain

Where western medicine has failed me drastically, Crossroads has given me major relief from neuropathy, spasms, pain, skin problems, anxiety, depression and chronic neck and back pain. We need this to go “viral” within the veteran’s community!
