I was referred to Erik a few years ago to address some severe back pain that would just not go away as my only other option was to live on pain pills. Within 2 sessions I was feeling so much better and after a few months I was back to normal and pain free! Erik is now a critical part of my wellness plan as he keeps me healthy and active. He will work with you on other aspects of your life as well - whether it be stress, digestive issues or other things - he does so much more than just alleviate pain (although that part is amazing)! Highly recommend, you wont be disappointed!

Ive been a patient of Erik since he started. Hes always very professional, kind, and genuinely cares for his patients. Hes helped me with acupuncture, B12 shots, and herbal supplements. I would highly recommend him to others. Eriks the best!

This is the best my shoulders have felt in years. I suffer from chronic pain and migraines. My health has been so much better since I have started getting regular treatment from Erik. Hes the best!

What a life saver. Erik has been so helpful throughout the pandemic. I appreciate all the advice and treatments to be proactive and staying healthy, so I don’t have to treat illness, rather I can avoid it.He is my go to person now, he has kept me from getting sick and helped me weather the side effects of the vaccine. Next up I am hoping to tackle my migraines.I highly recommend him!

Im a fan of Dr. Erik! Ive prevented or avoided colds with Cold Nip, so now my family takes it as soon as they feel a cold coming on! And recently had minimal reactions to dose 2 of the Covid vaccine by using a product Dr. Erik recommended. I had to work the next two days following dose 2 so it was a relief to have some help to do so. Thanks Dr. Erik!

Dr. Erik is excellent. He is very thorough, takes the time to understand what your health and life goals are, and really explores whats going on at the root of your symptoms (no pun intended). After two visits I feel calmer, healthier, and just as proof of how much better energy flow I have, my hands are consistently warm for the first time in my life.Im thrilled to have found The Root and will be going back for years to come.

I recently called Erik out of desperation. My husband gets canker sores in his mouth, and for whatever reason, they tend to get really bad in the fall. A few years back they had gotten so bad that they went down his throat and he couldnt eat or drink, so we ended up in the ER to get him fluids. After seeing multiple drs, trying a lot of western medicine, all to no avail, I decided why not? What have we got to lose?I thought about Eriks Propolis as we are starting to think its a weird seasonal allergy thing. When talking with Erik (on his day off, none the less) he recommended that we try Watermelon Frost. He said hes seen great results with it. I was skeptical since weve been at this for years, with NO results.I am forever grateful to Erik because it WORKED! My husband was more or less pain free by the next morning. The previous night he had to take a pain pill because the pain had gotten so bad, and he needed to be able to eat.Thank you Erik, you dont know how much this means to me and my family. We will be looking to come to you first for other ailments.

After my first appointment with Erik, I feel amazing! He prioritized the top issues that I wanted to address, was great at explaining the process and checking in with opportunities for questions and to make sure I was comfortable. The best part was the ‘nap’ while I rested for the needles to work their magic. I’m sold- I can’t wait for my next visit. Thank you, Erik!

I am young but my body feels like a grandma! I was pretty skeptical about acupuncture mainly because I didn’t understand what it is or how it works…Dr. Erik is the perfect balance of professional, caring & respectful.After meeting Dr. Erik, I can’t expressf how amazing my entire body feels in just 2 weeks of sessions!!Pain points: tendonitis in wrists, sharp pain in finger tips, elbows, traps, neck, lower back, knee, and horrible allergies.I was so nervous about the session which I wore on my sleeves. He took the time to explain and demonstrate what, where, why, how on acupuncture, hot cupping, electroshock, and that massage gun thing which is incredible!As others have explained, Dr. Erik prioritized my top issues but still took the time to address all pain points in a timely manner.The best part was the ‘nap’ while I rested for the needles to work their magic.Next appointment already set, yet again! I cant wait!!!What are you waiting for??!

A friend referred me to Erik after a knee injury last winter. I was familiar with acupuncture, having had several treatments for other ailments over the years, but was skeptical about trying a new place, and about how effective acupuncture could be for joint pain and swelling. I’ve now had 5-6 treatments by Erik, and am planning to make this a part of my long-term health plan because of the results I’ve witnessed. Erik addresses all systems of the body, and he’s made me aware of additional areas I can focus on to improve my overall wellbeing. I feel fortunate that he followed his calling to do this amazing healing work. Namaste.

Got pain? Not if you visit Dr. Erik Johnson at The Root Acupuncture... at least, minutes after your visit, youll feel like youve been miracled. And dont forget to ask about his other services, including the local honey and bee products he creates... B-12 injections (they make me feel like I have the strength of TEN grinches, plus two)... and Cold Nip, which works amazingly well at nipping a cold in the bud. Dr. Johnson is a WIZARD.

Erik at The Root Acupunture is amazing. He is very professional and well spoken; he is able to describe Chinese medicine in a way that makes sense. After all my treatment I leave feeling better from Sinus Pressure, neck pain, stress and he even flipped my breach baby. Erik is great! Highly recommend

I came to Root Acupuncture having had acupuncture from other practitioners through the years. I found Erik to be the best communicator Ive ever experienced in this capacity, walking me through and educating me on what he was doing. He said many things Id never heard of before. The next days after my treatment, I had a significant increase in energy and a lingering cough was gone. If youre afraid of needles, theres no need. Erik makes it very safe to receive treatment and I didnt experience any discomfort. Acupuncture is magic and Eric is a Wizard!

Eric is one of the most compassionate healers that I have ever found. He actually listens to you before he jumps into any treatment modality, to ensure that he is suggesting to you precisely what your body needs. He is driven by the passion to help, which is what I seek in the people that I want in my life. I could not recommend anyone higher than Eric for anything that ails your body.

I visited The Root Acupuncture clinic when I was having difficulty sleeping, as an alternative to medication. Erik Johnson was very thorough in explaining the process, and the whys of the process, including any sensations I could expect to experience during the treatment. He also provided me with some supplementation to augment the treatments. All in all, it was a very comfortable experience, and I would highly recommend The Root Acupuncture clinic to anyone looking for an alternative to western treatment options.

Dr. Erik Johnson is the most attentive provider I have ever seen. He is extremely passionate and knowledgable about his practice and overall wellness which comes across in the effectiveness of his treatments. As a patient, I felt listened to and cared for by Erik. His treatments were relaxing, restorative, and balancing for me as I was looking for support rather than facing anything more serious. As a former co-worker, I know that Erik treats every patient he sees with this amount of care and will do anything in his power to find a solution to a problem a patient may be facing.

Erik is an exceptional healer and expert in wellness for the whole body. His calm, grounded demeanor combines with his exceptional knowledge and training to provide a responsive and effective treatment every time. Whether managing a current illness, or providing ongoing support for my body to take care of itself, Erik is a huge part of my self-care.

Erik us AMAZING. not only does he have a unique passion for the human body and knowledge of Chinese medicine...but he is also a beekeeper! His propolis helped me recover so much quicker last time I had a cold. I have been recieving acupuncture for years and have seen many practitioners...hands down The Root acupuncture is one of the best I have seen! Get balanced and improve your health with Erik! I did :-)

Erik has helped me with numerous issues from back pain to sinus issues, and helped me a lot! He is makes it all accessible and easy to understand, and makes you feel really comfortable. Highly recommend!
