Acupuncture by George - George Ritachka, DACM, L.Ac.

"Dr. George Ritachka, I hope this review finds you in good health and spirits. I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the excellent care I received during my recent visit to your clinic. It was a pleasure to meet you and to have the opportunity to be a patient of yours. I especially appreciate how you addressed my specific ailment of vertigo with such precise knowledge and expertise. Your Chinese Medicine approach helped me heal without resorting to OTC pharmaceuticals, which was a relief. Thank you for taking the time to listen to me and for informing me of the benefits of Chinese Medicine and acupuncture. Once again, I want to thank you for your kind and compassionate care. It made a significant difference in my life, and I am grateful for your dedication to your profession. Sincerely, Saul Ocampo"

"George is an expert at what he does. I visited with back pain and George applied a variety of different natural techniques (acupuncture, massage, guasha, manipulation etc) to eliminate the pain and also taught me strategies to prevent future recurrences. He listens to you as a patient, looks for reasons behind the details he notices and sets about addressing them. Well worth the trip to Carlsbad."

"Dr. George helped me get rid of the worst, most debilitating back pain I've ever dealt with. I went in to see Dr. George after my friend referred me to him. I was having horrible lower back pain which left me unable to sit, stand, walk or bend my body in any way. It was truly the worst pain I've ever experienced, and I thought I may never heal. As of today, my back pain ins 90% gone, I have nearly full mobility and I have much more freedom of movement than before my back even started hurting. I've done 3 sessions ,which included acupuncture and massage therapy, and have another scheduled. He truly takes time understanding your exact needs, investigating the causes of the pain, and devising ways to provide relief. I would recommend Dr. George to everyone."

"Have seen George twice now and can say he is very knowledgeable and skilled in all things healing. Takes all the time needed to treat you properly and understand what you need. Had an issue ongoing for 2 weeks straight that he sorted out in a 2 hour session. Can’t recommend him enough!"

"I have been back to George many time now. I sincerely believe in George and in acupuncture. What impressed me the first time I met George was that he truly listened carefully to my needs, focused on addressing them. He is professional and knowledge within this field is outstanding. I was amazed at how well acupuncture worked to relax me, relieve pain in my hip, knee and a head. George knows exactly what he was doing and took great care to explain everything to me. He followed up to see how I was doing several times. The treatment was painless and very relaxing. It was a wonderful feeling walking out of treatment and having your body and mind feeling great and not have any pain. George is a true healer who takes great pride and care in his work. I would highly recommend him to anyone considering acupuncture as an option for healing, health and well-being... It works! Thank you, George for helping me and caring."
