“Whoa. Marcel, you kind of look bad – again. Still not sleeping?”So went the conversation for months, with one of my closest friends. I’ve always been a poor sleeper. Taking hours to fall asleep, only to wake up in 20 minute intervals, when I finally did.
Finally I relented and gave Dr. Schwerte a call. It’s the best thing I ever did. Andreas diagnosed my issues and began treatment right away. Sleeping issues – fixed. I can’t believe I lived with it for 5 years!!!
I look forward to my weekly visits with Andreas, to hear his calming, “Now you relax for a little bit.”
For first timers – don’t be put off by the “spit” test.

I have been dealing with chronic pain for over two years in my neck and arms. The sensations were crippling. After two years of seeing dozens of doctors, following all types of theories, taking all types of medications, and considering surgery options with no guarantees I had come to the end of my wits in finding a solution. I was tired of ‘band-aids’ that just marked the pain. The pain kept knocking me down. I was not able to participate in life and wanted to find a healing to remove the condition and restore my health to its full vitality. You gave that to me. And I could not be more thankful.Through your passion, knowledge, dedication and expertise in the healing powers of both western medicine and Chinese medicine and their philosophies, you offer a full body approach to the healing process. Your work activates the healer within and allows the body to find its natural balance. What a wonderful feeling.
You are an angel come to my rescue and I want the world to know of you. In less than two months of your time, I am living in a brand new world. One full of promise, strength, health and happiness. I have full intentions of seeing you from time to time as a continuing well body therapy.
Thank you. May others be so fortunate to experience your healing hands if in need.
Sincerely,
J. G.
When you find a doctor that is not only professional and knowledgeable, but also passionate about their practice, you have struck gold my friends! I have just begun treatment with Dr. Schwerte for anxiety, as well as neck and back pain. After the first treatment alone, I felt better. After my first visit, I was given homework to do in order to better understand my condition, and herbal and mineral supplements as well. This is a truly holistic approach to medicine that I definitely appreciate. I would highly recommend Dr. Schwerte to anyone considering acupuncture.
I want to thank you for encouraging me to try treatment on my back. It has not felt this free and aligned in years! Fabulous!Thank you!

We brought our daughter in to see Dr. Schwerte for an acute ear infection. He gave her a herbal medicine which we gave to her every two hours for 24 hours. Her ear did not hurt anymore and the infection is gone. It seemed to work faster than any of the antibiotics ever did! Thank you.

I have been suffering from various knee/leg ailments since an IT band injury in November of 2004. Since then I’ve had the experience of when one specific problem shows improvement another one surfaces. If my left side began to heal, my right side would start to bother me, etc. Over the past 2 years I’ve consulted two knee surgeons and seen two physical therapists. While all of these professionals helped me in some way, I still hadn’t been able to return to regular walking for exercise or biking. With encouragement from my personal trainer I decided to attack my knee issues on all fronts and try acupuncture.I began seeing Dr. Schwerte in January 2006. I was immediately impressed with his genuine concern for my overall health, not just my knee issues. He recommended I get custom made orthodics, and recommended a supplement regime aimed at my total well being including reduction of stress and inflammation. My knees and mood improved enough to allow me to discontinue my prescription anti-inflammatory and anti-depressant. I can now walk short distances again without pain, and ride my bike the same distances as before my knees started bothering me.
I very much recommend Dr. Schwerte. I have learned a great deal about my health and how the body works from him. He encouraged me to have some lab tests done which revealed certain facts to me that I may never have known such as food intolerances. He is conscientious, thorough, reasonable, and truly interested in my health.

Andreas is a truly gifted practitioner of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. His training in western as well as eastern medicine, combined with his strong intuition and understanding of the human body make him one of the best in his field. I would recommend Andreas without hesitation.

Andreas Schwerte is an amazing doctor. Period. He is gentle, highly sensitive to the patient and really devoted to fully understanding developments in both eastern and western approaches to health and wellbeing. I trust him explicitly and put myself in his hands for just about everything. He is incredible.

It has been approx 4 months since I walked into your office for the first time. Since that time I have improved immensely both physically and mentally.
With the tools you have given me over the past few months I feel that I am ready to work on my own to “improve and maintain” a quality of life that I desire.
For this, I am thankful.

Andreas’ insights into my health have been invaluable. None of the doctors I visited before Andreas even suggested that my worsening migraine headaches (more frequent and intense) and digestive problems
could be related to food intolerances. Andreas, on the other hand, suspected this soon after I first mentioned these symptoms; at his request, I provided some saliva samples which confirmed his suspicions.
I have changed my diet and the health conditions have all but disappeared.I have been deeply impressed by Andreas’ professionalism, but, even more so, his concern for his patients as reflected in his listening skills and his ability to formulate solutions which fit the individual patient’s needs. I do not feel as though I am part of a “managed care” machine when I am in his office. His approach to serving patients is refreshing and has led to substantially better health in my case.

In a brief verbal exchange Andreas analyzed my shoulder ache. In two one-hour visits within 10 days Andreas cured my pain. Since then I never had problems with my shoulder again and enjoy life.”

I had a serious muscular issue in my calf which caused me problems walking for about 4 years. I went to numerous doctors and health care providers and nobody was able fix it. Three sessions with Dr. Schwerte allowed me to walk extensively and bike again :)
