I’ve seen a number of acupuncturists over the years, and Jon E. Walker is one of the best. I saw Jon E. for a variety of lingering health issues, and the improvement was amazing. Jon E. has a wonderfully holistic approach to acupuncture—combining dietary suggestions, herbs, and acupuncture. He also has a great manner about him—easy-going and easy to talk to. I highly recommend Jon E.’s acupuncture practice.
