Acupuncture
Report
Acupuncture Acupuncture is a medical method developed in China thousands of years ago. It is one of the most commonly used medical techniques in the world. Even though it has only recently become famous in America, the FDA estimated that nearly 500 million dollars was spent on acupuncture in 1993. That statistic has been steadily increasing over the years.

Acupuncture is largely based on the principle of Qi (chi) . A simple way of understanding qi is to compare it to a river. Much like a river feeds the surrounding land, Qi is responsible for nourishing the body and offering the necessary energy to complete both automated functions and daily activities. When a river runs dry or floods, the land is no longer able to maintain balance. When Qi is not balanced, disease occurs.
Herbal Medicine
Report
Herbal Medicine Herbal medicine requires the art of mixing plants, minerals and other natural substances to create natural medicines. These herbal formulas are used to treat a wide diversity of medical conditions. Using natural substances that are not man-made allows the body to heal itself organically. This results in the ability to address the cause of the disease and repair the damage rather than just masking the symptoms.

Many factors are taken into consideration when prescribing formulas. Each individual's body kind and characteristics of their specific conditions are all taken in mind. A skilled herbalist can customize a formula to each individuals needs at that current moment. Thus two different patients being treated for the same condition may have different herbal prescriptions.

Occasionally this process takes longer than pharmaceutical drugs, however, the results are longer lasting and the process is safer. By addressing the cause of the problem, persons are not required to remain on the herbal prescription for the rest of their life. Side effects are rare and much less severe than that of pharmaceutical drugs when prescribed by a Board certified Acupuncture Physician who is trained in the art of herbal medicine.
Massage Therapy
Report

Reduce pain in the back, neck, and other areas.
Increase range of motion and flexibility.
Decrease muscle spasms and cramping.

I didn't know what to do about my back pain. The Axis team helps me maintain normalcy.

A few months ago I finally came to the end of my rope as I was dealing with multiple overlapping conditions -- both emotional and physical -- which were snowballing. I was truly convinced that I would be doing nothing but managing the various symptoms for the rest of my life, and my allopathic providers seemed to be agreeing with that assessment. I had successfully used acupuncture in the north when dealing with pain issues several years ago and decided to try it again. Dr. Graydon Snow truly listened to me and went to work.

After just a few treatments with him and the massage therapist in his office -- Keri Garcia -- the worst of my symptoms were gone. Some changes I noticed within a few days, while others I realized had shifted for the better somewhere along the way. I continue to go, now once a month, as I work on a few other issues while Dr. Snow monitors the original issues.

I always feel comfortable in the office with the entire staff and have been able to get an appointment in the time frames I need. If you've never tried acupuncture before, you may be amazed at the experience and results. and Dr. Snow and his team at Axis Natural Medicine provide top-notch care.

This was the worst massage I've ever received. The massage therapist was actually playing on her phone during the massage. I was just looking for one day of relaxation and this was such a disappointment. Don't waste your money.

I highly recommend massages with Keri Garcia. She has great compassion and great massage skills. She asks all the right questions and gets right to the root cause of muscle aches, triggers, and stress. Before going to her I could not sleep on my right side. With monthly visits that has totally gone away. Her deep muscle massages are wonderful. She tunes right into where there are areas that need more attention or lymphatic drainage.

My husband and I have been seeing her for more than three years. My husband was seeing a chiropractor before with no relief. Once he started massages with Keri, his muscle issues cleared. I highly recommend her as well as Axis Natural Medicine. Five Stars.

Dr Snow is the best acupuncture that I have been too. I haven’t been to one for a few years, but then my sciatica started acting up in the first visit felt better

I always try something new with an open mind. I have been to one treatment.one treatment mind you and I can see things that have changed already. Not major changes, but enough to where I will keep going back. I just wish there were more time in a week in my schedule to accommodate more than just one visit a week. I would recommend them!

Dr. Snow and his staff are very caring. I always feel better when leaving the office.

Dr. Snow is an exceptionally fine practitioner. I have been seeing him on a regular basis for chronic pain issues for over a year. I never spend more than five minutes in the waiting room, the staff is friendly, efficient, and very helpful. I began acupuncture and homeopathy treatments last year after being diagnosed with a rotator cuff tear in my shoulder. Dr. Snow's expert skill prevented me from having surgery, and the symptoms disappeared.

He is capable of correcting many health problems, and is also a very compassionate, knowledgeable, and personable physician. I always look forward to each visit and can not recommend him highly enough. This is the best-kept secret in Southwest Florida!

I've been to other acupuncturists; however, I must say that Dr. Snow is by far the best I've experienced. Other doctors have their "routine" where they essentially insert the needles the same way each time you visit based on what you indicated your problem was the first time. Dr. Snow talks to you each time, and as he works with you on/works on you, he makes certain that he adjusts the treatment each time so that you get the most out of it.

I would liken it to an "interactive" experience. I explained that something new was causing discomfort this week, and he adjusted the treatment accordingly. I can't say enough about how much I appreciate his willingness to adapt each time for me and my chronic problems. He spent more than an hour with me on my initial consultation, which I thought was incredible.

He understands that each patient presents unique situations, and he doesn't offer a boxed solution. To me, that's the best thing he offers. I know I won't be cured, but Dr. Snow provides relief. He listens. He adjusts treatment as needed. He doesn't mind answering questions. I've even fallen asleep during treatment. I can't sleep in my own bed at night, but I can sleep here. : If you are considering acupuncture, you owe it to yourself to talk to Dr. Snow. You won't be disappointed.

Dr. Snow and his wife, Dr. Kristen, are truly interested in the welfare of their patients. They take time to talk and listen. I never have to wait in their office. Insurance billing has never been a problem. I receive massage and acupuncture which has been helpful. They have also suggested herbs which were a lifesaver while going through menopause.

I have been dealing with pain in my back and neck for years and it was getting worse. It was really affecting my everyday life and ruining my golf game. I thought I had tried everything to get rid of the pain. One of my friends told me about Dr. Snow who had used acupuncture to eliminate his shoulder pain. I was skeptical at first, but I figured I'd give it a try. Am I glad I did. Dr. Snow treated me with acupuncture and significantly reduced my pain and restored my golf game.

I tried many options to treat my back pain, and was eventually told that I needed surgery. I decided to try something else instead and I am so glad I did! The staff is friendly and efficient, the acupuncture Dr. Snow has given me has been tremendously helpful, and the massages I've gotten from Robert have also been really effective. I feel like I am back to my old self.

Dr. Snow & Katie Griffin are the best in Fort Myers! I have been to several other acupuncture offices but have had the best results and bedside manner from Dr. Snow at Axis Natural Medicine. Katie is a fantastic hypnotist. She made me feel comfortable and not worried about the "stage show" hypnosis that I've seen. These guys are now my first line of defense instead of a last resort.
