COMPASSIONATE, EXCELLENT LISTENER

Chris has such an incredible holistic approach to wellness. He has helped me so much over the years & I couldn't have made some of my most dramatic healthier life changes without his help. Chris is compassionate & an excellent listener, his treatments are effective & prompt. I have seen many acupuncturists over the years, and no one compares to the distinguished work Chris delivers.

OPEN HEARTED

Chris is a deeply intuitive practitioner who comes to the work with a kind of open heartedness that once experienced, you wonder why more healing and life supporting practitioners don’t have it. You wish that body mind healthcare of this quality was more widely available. All that aside, Chris is knowledgeable, thoughtful and skilled at “hearing” the body and helping to relieve a wide array of issues. PWC is a light, airy & safe space that is truly committed to wellness and “space holding” for all. Especially in these really complex and trying times a session with Chris is really a life altering resource.

PROFOUNDLY POSITIVE EXPERIENCE

I highly recommend Chris Miller/Miller Acupuncture. I recently saw him for some acute back pain and it was a profoundly positive experience. Long story short: I walked into the office with really uncomfortable back pain, and left feeling about 80% better -- a world of difference. By the next day, it was 100% back to normal. I am hugely grateful. The experience: Chris kindly accommodated me into his schedule on short notice for a same-day appointment. His office at the Portland Wellness Collective is incredibly relaxing and peaceful -- just being in there starts the healing process off on a great foot! Lots of plants, natural wood elements, natural light, and Eastern art -- it's beautiful. He is extremely calm, kind, and welcoming. He is a great listener and put many disparate aspects of my medical history/story together in a very insightful way which made a lot of sense to me, linking my pain to digestion and breathing, and also bringing in some interesting perspective on the seasonal changes. He did acupuncture on my hands and back, some manual work, some helpful diagnostic stretches, and cupping. He explained everything first, and was gentle, which I appreciate. I liked that he used multimodal therapies and also provides education. He identified that one of my ribs might be out of alignment, and that my left side was some once crunched up compared to my left, and that there were other knots of tension that also needed some work. Identifying all of this takes skill, care, and patience, and I appreciate that he has all of those things. Gave me exercises to do at home, as well. Overall, a wonderful healing experience. HIGHLY recommend that you go see Chris for a thorough evaluation and treatment.

INTUITIVE, GENEROUS AND KIND

Christopher is intuitive, connected, aware, generous and so kind. I’ve been treated by Christopher multiple times and every time it feels like he’s tapped into this profound understanding of my being that I had been trying to reach. He provides the information with ease and guidance. His knowing is so powerful that I’ve allowed myself to trust him completely and that has been the best choice I’ve made during my appointments. I live on the East coast and dream of finding someone with the same level of natural skill that Christopher has been gifted. If you live in Portland, give your mind, body and soul A gift and make an appointment with Christopher. You will be forever changed in the best of ways.

MOBILITY IS BACK

Prior to seeing Christopher, I was in terrible pain and it was hard to walk even 100 feet. I usually walk 5-10 miles a day. I wasn't sleeping well and the few doctors I saw, gave me pain pills. After seeing Christopher, I was 70% better, I was sleeping through the night and now I am off my pain medication. My mobility is back! Christopher is an intuitive healer. He spent quality time to understand me and my condition. His treatments and recommendation for my recovery are spot on.

TRULY IMPACTFUL

I can't recommend Chris Miller enough. He has been my acupuncturist for four years and has truly impacted my life in such a fundamental way. He is a true healer for the physical body as well as for the spiritual and emotional parts of ones' self. I trust him wholeheartedly and would urge anyone looking to improve their health (physical, emotional, spiritual) to connect with Chris.

SUPER SKILLS

I've seen Chris as my go to acupuncturist for several years and he's helped me through so many issues - digestion, fatigue, circulation, stress, a frozen shoulder and sinus problems. In addition to his super skills in Chinese medicine, he is also a delightful and caring practitioner. I always feel comfortable in his care, I feel heard, and I appreciate that he always asks questions to find the root of my problems - not just treating the symptoms. I couldn't recommend him more highly.

ENCOURAGING LISTENER

Chris has been a constant source of encouragement, joy, hope and healing. He genuinely cares about the physical and emotional pain and does a beautiful job connecting the two. He listens with intention and kindness but is also honest and direct. From a labrum tear in my hip to depression and menstrual problems etc— he handles every appointment and problem with grace and respect. Not only is he an acupuncturist, but he has become a teacher and a friend. Healing is a hard and exhausting process but Chris never fails to make healing fun. 100% recommend!
