Robert J Dorsett, LAc

I first went to see Robert several years ago when I had awful back spasms and was in so much pain that I literally could not sit down. I had never tried acupuncture before but had been to physical therapists and chiropractors for chronic back pain who had helped in the past… but not this time! Robert was amazing. After the first visit I was able to sit down. I was a believer! I continue to see him regularly for «tune-​ups» and pain management. Robert is a natural healer and I recommend him whole-​heartedly!

My most recent need for Robert’s services was due to severe arthritis in my shoulders. I injured both shoulders in the late 90’s when I broke a fall and the result has been severe deterioration of the cartilage in both sides with a complete absence of cartilage in the left shoulder which causes me severe pain and reduced range of motion. Each treatment Robert did for me left me with far less pain and greater range of motion. In fact, I had physical therapy following one of his visits and the therapist commented on the difference in only one week.
Robert’s offices are quiet and relaxing and his method is nearly painless. I usually can’t feel any of the needles at all. He has treated me for several years now for such diverse problems as grief, anxiety, headache and immune system issues — all with great results.
He’s well worth a visit. Find out for yourself about this hidden gem of acupuncturists in the Bay Area.

Last week I saw Robert for a shoulder injury that has been bothering me for the past year or so. I have done chiropractor work on it with limited results. I do weight-​training at the gym regularly and haven’t been able to do my full workout because of my shoulder. After I saw Robert last week, I was able to do my full workout without any pain the next day.
I definitively recommend Robert at Harmony Healing Center for any active person.
