"Keenan, thank you for the wonderful treatment you gave me. During your treatment you showed me that the pain in my shoulder and back related to my lung and my heart which was caused by my hectic life and my sorrow. Those connections were amazing. Those are things I needed to take care of.
Ask Keenan to heal both of your mind and body by his treatment either massage or acupuncture. You will never ever regret going there."

"My first experience with Keenan was while he was an intern at OCOM. I had gone to several specialists about my extreme foot pain caused by my navicular bone slowly moving out of place. They had no answers except to quit running and biking. Keenan figured out what was wrong, gave me a solution to try, and it worked. I’m now running pain free and the navicular bones in both feet have receded back to where they
belong.
I’m a 44 year-old Ironman triathlete, marathoner and ultra-runner. I’m as slow as molasses, but an official finisher. I also have a very demanding desk job. I have found that an hour of acupuncture does more than a week’s worth of stretching, especially on those hard to stretch, injury prone muscles (i.e. hamstrings, piriformis). I have found that regular acupuncture (along with regular massage and chiropractic treatments) dramatically speeds up recovery by speeding healing and breaking up scar tissue…especially during those long mileage weeks. As an added bonus, I find the hour long session helps to calm my psyche so I can get back to work feeling
refreshed.
I’m a type A personality in a type B body. I do not train enough, stretch enough, or eat right. Acupuncture forces me to slow down, at least for an hour, and regroup"

"Keenan’s pleasant manner, thorough questioning and excellent technique have greatly helped with my lifelong battle with migraines. Since beginning my treatments with him 4 months ago [after 12 treatments], I have cut my medication in half and now experience less frequency and intensity of the migraines. After years of pursuing a variety of treatments and medications my only regret is that I waited so long to try acupuncture.”

"I started seeing Keenan after getting into a car accident and experiencing a lot of neck pain and headaches. I also suffered from very painful periods all of my life, so severe, in fact, that I would often have to miss work and stay in bed all day; and he said that those could also be addressed using acupuncture. Keenan explained to me that the pain from my injuries and painful periods were not going to go away overnight, but with consistent treatment they would improve and hopefully go away entirely. Sure enough, I would feel temporary relief and gradual improvement in my symptoms until, after about three and a half months of treatments, I was pain free in my neck and was only having headaches about once a week as opposed to the constant headache I had when I first started treatments. I was so happy to have my life back instead of being always held back by pain.
I continued to see Keenan to treat my painful periods. He had advised me that it would probably take longer for this to heal since it was more internal in nature, and that we had to improve the hormonal system in my body. Even within three months I was having much less pain with my periods, and I had not had to take any time off of work since beginning my treatments (Thanks Keenan). By the end of six months of acupuncture and herbal therapy, my periods were only causing mild cramping sensations instead of intense pain that would keep me bed-ridden. I wish I had known that I did not have to suffer with my periods for the past 20 years, but I am happy that I was able to find Keenan and he could help identify and treat my problems.
Keenan is very kind and patient. He took time to explain to me what was going on and what he was doing to help me. He is also a very good listener. I am not a native English speaker, but I never had any problem communicating with him. His calm and attentive demeanor instill confidence and trust, and I think he is a great teacher and acupuncturist."

"They listen, they do what is needed and work well with insurance. Highly recommended. I'd go back in a heartbeat."

"I suffered from IBS for over 20 years, and it was getting progressively worse. It got to the point that I was actually scared to go on long car rides or be in a strange environment out of fear that I would not be able to find a bathroom in time. After moving to Portland, OR and finding White Crane Acupuncture I met with Keenan and was very impressed by his calm presence and thorough examination. Within weeks of beginning acupuncture and herbal treatment, along with some dietary changes, I was feeling MUCH better. I continued to get treatment for about four months, and I felt better than I had since I was in college. I didn’t realize how much my condition was sapping my energy and joie de vivre. I have my life back! I can go outdoors and on long road trips without fear or discomfort. On top of that, I started sleeping better, too. Acupuncture truly is a holistic medicine. Thanks Keenan.
