  • "In my mind (Miles) is nothing short of a miracle worker..."

    “I suffer from migraine headaches, my entire spine is bone on bone, both knees require replacement, and I have chronic arthritis, not to mention a 30-year Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis…I am able to currently do most everything I want without surgery. I depend completely on Dr. Thomas to relieve my back pain, which he manages with regular acupuncture and bodywork…My arthritis, while relatively severe, has been kept in check, allowing me to refrain from taking opiates… I am always in awe that Dr. Thomas has been able to provide me a quality of life that I hadn’t experienced in over twenty years. In my mind he is nothing short of a miracle worker.”

    -Delanne

  • "Acupuncture allows me to drop into a space for deep energetic healing that I cannot access anywhere else."

    “I have experienced chronic pain, migraines and GI issues since I was a child. Having chronic illness, it can be difficult to trust clinicians and often exhausting going to appointments…especially after so many disappointments. While I had tried acupuncture before, never did I stick with it consistently enough to experience long-lasting or life changing results. During my first phone call with Miles, I knew this would be different. Acupuncture allows me to drop into a space for deep energetic healing that I cannot access anywhere else. There is a sincerity and presence provided, along with the clear and rooted expertise in TCM. There’s no wonder why Idyllwild Acupuncture has so many committed patients who all see results. Personally, I am certain that weekly appointments for the last two years are the #1 contributor to more vibrancy and wellbeing I now feel in my life. I am so grateful.”

  • "...like entering a dynamic sanctuary of health and healing"

    “Being treated by Miles and Julie is like entering a dynamic sanctuary of health and healing that engenders deep trust and brilliant outcomes.”

    -Steven

  • "One year of...pilates with Julie and I am pain free."

    “I was in pain for 20 years. A slipped disc in the lumbar spine and pinched nerves in the cervical spine caused muscle and nerve damage. Years of PT and a spinal fusion didn’t help. One year of carefully tailored/monitored pilates with Julie and I am pain free. Now I can lift, run and play with my granddaughter. Julie gave me back my life”

    -Alison

  • "Julie's sensitivity with the crystal bowls...created a soothing, otherworldly sensation"

    “I attended a group sound bath and acupuncture experience with Julie and Miles and am so glad I did. I came in a little disoriented after having just been through an emotional experience, but Julie's sensitivity with the crystal bowls and other instruments created a soothing, otherworldly sensation, that when combined with Miles' acupuncture, left me in much calmer state. Thank you for such a healing evening Miles and Julie!”

    -Andréa Bond, LMT

  • "...the amount of relief I am experiencing is amazing!"

    “If you haven't already, take the time and schedule an appointment with Keely Taylor and Miles Thomas at Idyllwild Community Acupuncture! With working so much and carrying my stress in my neck/shoulders…the amount of relief I am experiencing is amazing! Give it a shot! I promise it's worth it!”
