PJ Steyer, Lic. Ac MAOM

I came to see PJ for persistent fatigue and various discomforts and his care was very helpful. He was very knowledgeable, thorough and not only did the acupuncture help with my discomforts, his insight has continued to help me even long beyond my treatment was completed. I have been to two other acupuncturists in the Brookline/​Cambridge area and really felt my best after seeing PJ, I also felt I received the best education about what I was dealing with. Highly recommend!

I’ve known PJ my entire life, but only a month ago saw him for accupuncture. I have been back every week since I started… and have already started to notice a difference. He brings a level of calm and eases my anxiety beyond any measure of medical treatment I’ve ever had– next to my therapist. Eased digestive issues and I’ve noticed a significant general positive bodily change as well. Why avoid the healing that accupuncture can bring? I’m not sure why I had so many excuses, for so long– to avoid it. I will never stop going to accupuncture and I love the work that PJ does– so thorough, eases my nerves without even trying– plus he’s so easy to talk to … that helps :) Much Love PJ– always.

PJ is great! Can’t say enough good things about the man.
As far as needle poking goes: I’ve had some pretty intense experiences in acupuncture with PJ. My first bout of sessions was to treat depression, insomnia, stress and related issues. The results varied and my lifestyle wasn’t helping much.
In more recent times (past 9 – 10 months) I returned to PJ to address injuries /​emotions. The treatments have really amazed me.
I hyper-​extended my knee and pulled my hamstring within days of each other — both were injuries I’d had before but didn’t properly heal, in particular my knee pain which has been chronic for three years. After some time in acupuncture my hamstring is 100% again (when before it still never felt quite right) and my knee pain is substantially diminished and even feels normal from time to time. It’s amazing! I know I sound like a commercial saying this, but I got to a point where I never thought I’d be able to sit in my chair without feeling constant (if dull) pain again.
Emotionally, the treatments have been pretty potent. A few times I started crying involuntarily, one time I saw brilliant colors. I usually feel pretty drained after sessions, but I take it to be a generally good thing.
He also has a really good treatment to clear nasal congestion. It kind of sucks, but it works.

I met PJ through another passion of his, a Korean form of karate. He knew that I was having trouble with my back, and I knew that he was studying acupuncture, but it wasn’t until he opened his own practice that I had an opportunity to let him work on me.
As he is not the first acupuncturist I’ve seen, I speak from a small base of experience when I say that he does excellent work.
So good, in fact, that I go to see him weekly, whenever I can.
I appreciate his style, which is very slow and thorough. He does a complete profile every visit before he begins, and works on supporting trouble areas as well as relieving problems in the short term.
I can most sincerely recommend him, if you are considering acupuncture for any reason, give him a try. Tell him I sent you!

PJ Steyer introduced me to acupuncture! I am deeply grateful for his compassionate care over the years. He has a fun personality and works well with kids. He is passionate about Traditional Chinese Medicine and will use precise measurements as well as thorough questions to fine tune your treatment.
Also, I made the mobile that hangs over his treatment table.
