First of all, I am such a skeptic, don't believe in this at all AND I hate needles. I had been suffering with muscle pain in my right arm due to repeated use during my volunteer work. I visited my doctor in early December when I became so uncomfortable because of the pain. I could not push open a heavy door or lift anything even just somewhat heavy. I couldn't reach behind me and the pain woke me as I slept. My doctor recommended PT and I met with a therapist in January, where I was given several exercises and directions to attempt to ease my pain. I found some relief but not enough. I was still taking Tylenol and Aleve in an effort to function and to sleep. In May, a gentleman where I volunteered told me acupuncture helped him greatly. Still skeptical , I mentioned this to a relative and she encouraged me to give it a try since her husband went to Frank Grill and found this treatment to be remarkably helpful. So I went , less than enthusiastically, but I found both Angela and Frank Grill, two very kind people, assured me that this could indeed work. The "happy ending" is this. After only two treatments, I was off the pain medication. After my next treatment , I found myself able to lift items up to 5 pounds but , most of all, I can sleep without pain. I am no longer that skeptic. One of my best decisions ever. (Oh, and the needle part? I hardly knew he was "poking at me" ) read more

If I could give Frank Grill 10 stars, I would! I have three degenerative discs in my neck. I started getting headaches that would not allow me to perform everyday tasks. I saw three neurologists, a pain management specialist, had Radio-frequency ablation which only made it worse, tried different types of pain medication and went to a physical therapist. Nothing worked. I was at my wits end. A friend recommended Frank. After 2 treatments I started feeling better. After 4 more I no longer had any pain! I was pain free for 13 months and felt wonderful... Early this fall the headaches returned. I had other health issues that may have caused the headaches to return. I visited Frank again and Voila! After 5 treatments the headaches are gone! I have to say, "It's amazing!" I highly recommend Frank. He's kind, considerate, down to earth and is wonderful about explaining the how's and why's of the practice of acupuncture. I plan to set up a maintenance program with him. When you enter the office you are greeted by Angela. She is warm, friendly and I consider her to be my friend. She has a great sense of humor and makes you feel at home! read more

While training for a race, I injured my Achilles' tendon on a run enough where running was no longer an option. After trying to rest it for a couple weeks, I got no relief. I went to a physical therapist, and she said "the Achilles is a funny thing. Sometimes you just don't recover". I wasn't going to take that for an answer. Enter Dr. Frank Grill and his able receptionist Angela. Through the magic of acupuncture, friendliness and a solid advice on wellness I eliminated my pain and regained my strength and mobility. I have since gone back for other injuries in my shoulder and arm with similarly positive results. Thanks, Angela and Dr. Grill! read more

I have had tendon/muscle problems my entire life. Recently, I have been having chronic knee pain. While exploring several options to alleviate the pain in my knee, up to and including surgery, I contacted Frank. He actively listened to my situation and came up with a plan to help me. His holistic approach to medicine has been able to allow me to walk out of his office with little or no pain. Frank explains everything he is doing and why. He truly cares about the quality of the service he is providing. I would highly recommend visiting his practice. read more

A wonderful place with wonderful people! Truly a god send! Dr. Frank and Angela really want to help you! read more

Frank is very knowledgeable. He listened to my needs and explained everything he was doing and why. This was my first experience with acupuncture and I have already made my next appointment to go back. I Highly recommend Frank and his practice. read more

I have only good things to say about Naperville Acupuncture Center. I have received many treatments there over the last 5 years. Most recently, I had seen an orthopedic surgeon due to knee pain and weakness. I hadn't been able to run or exercise due to the swelling, pain and weakness. The surgeon told me there was nothing they could do. Dr. Grill looked at my entire leg, not just my knee. Explained what he believed the problem was and how we would work on it. I was able to run the next day. I am going in regularly for treatments and the distance I am able to run is increasing each week. And I am not in any pain. Dr. Grill is thorough, honest and can help. I highly recommend him for any ailment. read more

I have ten steel screws and a steel plate in my ankle from a severe break 6 years ago, and have had ongoing problems with severe arthritis. Because I can't get the metal removed, I was skeptical as to whether or not anything other than hardcore medications (and the associated side-effects) would work to help with the pain, swelling, and discomfort I was feeling daily. Fortunately, I was recommended to see Frank at Naperville Acupuncture Center by a trusted care provider who went to the same school as him. I found NAC's office to be efficient, kind, clean, and professional. Angela's nursing experience really comes through in the way that she takes time to interview you on your first visit - and the way she takes care of patients throughout the process. Just today, she checked on me during my treatment and brought me a blanket because I had a bit of a chill. A great combination of caring and professionalism. After one month of going for acupuncture treatments twice a week (and now in maintenance once a month), I am now maintaining a fantastic baseline, and the pain and swelling has gone down permanently in my ankle. More than that, the exterior pain I used to jump and wince at is virtually gone. I can walk or run for long periods of time, and even wear heels once in a while! It's been a great change in my lifestyle, and I'm able to be more active. And as an added bonus, I mentioned to Frank during one of my treatments that I may have had a few glasses of wine the night before with some friends, and I had a headache. He gave me an additional needle for that, and I felt fantastic for the rest of the day! Thanks so much to Naperville Acupuncture Center! read more

I went looking for an acupuncturist as a last resort after three months of crippling fatigue that my doctor couldn't fix and had defined as a stress illness. I saw acupuncture as an interesting life experience, something to try but probably rule out. I chose Naperville Acupuncture Center because I wanted a clinic that takes a medical, rather than spiritual, approach. The website describes the process in clinical terms, which seemed promising. I was not disappointed when I arrived. Frank comes across very serious and formal when you first meet him. (I really like that in a healthcare provider - I find it respectful and reassuring.) He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced and can answer any question for you in detail. He spent half an hour getting my health history and talking me through how acupuncture works, what it will and will not do, and what the realistic expectations are. I appreciated this because I felt like he was leveling with me and genuinely looking to help me, not to get me to sign on the dotted line. The closest thing to acupuncture that I was familiar with was massage, so I was picturing having to disrobe and be draped in sheets. I was relieved to be taken to a room with easy chairs, where I sat back and just pushed up my sleeves and pant legs a bit. Frank recognized that I was nervous and talked me through it, and my first session was a success. I have now had eight sessions of therapy. Frank has also provided advice on my diet and sleep habits and has sourced an herbal treatment for me, and over these four weeks, the fatigue has lifted. What has truly amazed me, though, is what this has done for my migraines, which I never expected him to work on for me. I have been on every major medication and have worked with three neurologists over the course of seven years. In the past four weeks, my migraines have faded away to the point that my major triggers are no longer causing headaches. I can scarcely let myself believe that this is real. I need more time to trust that it's actually going to last, but it seems like I've finally gotten out of the pit of 1-2 migraines a week that I've been dealing with for seven years. If you are looking to try acupuncture, I wholeheartedly recommend Frank. He will answer all of your questions in a straightforward, detailed manner. He is respectful and has a real compassion for people in pain. His assistant, Angela, is deeply nurturing and welcoming. What I appreciated so much was their skill at setting my expectations and walking me through the period of pain as my muscle tension resolved. I can't remember a time in years when my neck was this loose and flexible. This is a more relaxing and restful experience than any massage I've ever had. I wish everyone could understand and experience acupuncture. read more

I have been seeing Frank Grill for the past few months for acupuncture treatment to AMD (Age-Related Macular Degeneration). He has helped my eyes greatly. He even looked up other AMD acupuncture treatments to apply as well. I am improving and so happy that I will not go blind. In fact, my night vision has greatly improved - like how it was 25 years ago! He is also treating my sinus congestion and this has also greatly improved. All the ENT's could offer is more drugs and surgery. Frank's acupuncture is working better than any of the drugs. Won't do surgery!! Thanks Frank - you have changed my life for the better. read more

Dr Grill is amazing. Ive had cortisone shots, nerves burned off, surgery, physical therapy, pain meds that didn't work. As a last resort I went to Dr F and I felt relief after the second visit. He really helped my knee pain, sciatica and headaches. I had had acupuncture before but I never noticed anything until I came here. The acupuncture was very gentle and rooms were comfortable. He was very ethical and prices were reasonable. He didn't try and sign me up for 40 visits like the Chiropractors did with me. He was very compassionate and caring Acupuncturist and made me feel at ease. I'd definitely go back and would recommend anyone that has pain or health problems to give him a shot. It worked for me! read more

I have had hip and lower back pain on and off for 3 years. One trip and my pain was alleviated. After a total of six visits, I haven't had pain in my lower hip or back since. read more

I have been going to Frank now for a few months. I have a hip and knee issue. I started with him with the worst pain I've ever had. Trouble walking and sleeping. But I'm happy to say that after several treatments, I've felt a noticeable improvement.I highly recommend Frank. He's a super nice guy and excellent at what he does. Cherylynn who is his receptionist is very kind too. Welcoming environment. read more

Amazing!!! Frank was able to relieve my pain and dramatically help with other different issues I have in 4 acupuncture treatments. He is always tuned and so experienced. Totally worth driving from Chicago. He knows what he's doing and doing it great!!! read more

My initial appointment went very well. Staff is very nice and Takes the time to explain what will be happening. Frank who is the acupuncturist is very knowledgeable and really knows what he is doing. He did a thorough assessment and after the assessment he sat with me and gave me the plan that he thinks will work best. He explained what he would be doing. He explained how it worked. He answered any questions I had. Very comfortable rooms and very relaxing. I would highly recommend them. read more

If I could provide a super hero cape I would. After years and months of foot pain (plantar fasciitis), four visits later and I'm swinging my feet out of bed with no pain!! I'm running again too. The staff is always friendly, prompt and knowledgable. Happily and confidently refer this business! read more

They've taken care of me on and off through out the years as issues have come up. I always go back because the customer service and treatment is always top notch!! read more

Frank is not a doctor. He may be trained in his field but he does not have a medical degree. This treating him as if he is a real doctor that leads me to post my experience with my appointment. Previously I used the services of two medically licensed doctors who changed their careers to being acupuncturists. Both wonderful health providers. When I moved to Illinois I tried Frank's office. What he provided in treatment was not good and left me with a huge amount of pain. I felt that he was trying to act like a doctor. At one point he tried the needle which runs current through it. My body flinched out of a normal physical reaction and he mildly chastised me for moving. I have never been so upset with a health provider as I am now about Frank. read more

It's a miracle! I was dealing with major sciatic nerve pain radiating down my left leg for several months. I tried physical therapy for 8 weeks, and saw an orthopedic M.D., but nothing seemed to help. It was interfering with both work and my social life, and a friend recommended that I try acupuncture (and I was admittedly a bit skeptical)... I'm SO glad I chose Naperville Acupuncture Center!!! Frank Grill is very professional, honest, and caring, and definitely knows his stuff. My pain is virtually gone after only 4 treatments! Angela (the office manager/nurse) is also great. If you're in pain, don't hesitate... Go to NAC. They're amazing! read more

Angela and Frank couldn't have been more helpful or inviting. It was my first visit using a Groupon and I will be back. There is alot to experience here and the prices sure are right. read more

I pulled a couple of muscles in my neck, and chiropractic care wasn't helping. With just one visit to the Naperville Acupuncture Center, my range of motion in my neck improved -- and by three visits, I was completely back to normal. Everyone was wonderful, caring, and friendly. I had a great experience and would definitely return. read more

This is the place to go! If you haven't tried acupuncture come here. If you have tried it and it didn't work for you come here. My experience in the past was that acupuncture worked but was too expensive and they doled out help in little cookie crumb amounts of work at a time and would only work on one issue at a time. Not here! He will thoroughly take care of your issues, listen to your changing needs and adjust to get you the most help in every session. He got rid of a knot in my back that was there for 20 years. I came in with a migraine (it used to be common for me to roll with a headache) and he GOT RID OF THE HEADACHE! I left with no headache! I've never had that happen before without feeling dopey from painkillers and muscle relaxants. Doc does great work and genuinely wants you to get well! The cost is low, there's no sales pitch, he can help you with lifestyle recommendations and get you back to healthy pdq. COME HERE! read more

I recommend anyone that is in pain to go see Frank. He is an expert in helping people with all kinds of health issues. You go here & come out feeling so relaxed!!! I suffer from chronic back & leg pain & currently anxiety & he has been able to help me tremendously. I went from taking anxiety meds every 12 hours, but just after 2 sessions with him, I feel like I am 99% better. Angela is so sweet, always willing to help you in making sure you get an appointment. If you want to be pain free or have any other health issues, go see Frank!!! Veronica read more

Frank does great work. He's helped me with a couple of problems other doctors couldn't resolve. Angela is extremely nice as well and very welcoming. read more

I went to the Naperville Acupuncture Center because I was in severe back pain. Prescription pain killers did not help at all, I could not walk without a walker and had gone over a week without being able to sleep for more than a few minutes at a time. Frank and Angela are two of the most compassionate and caring caretakers that I have ever come across. They were patient and concerned about my health. My treatments with Frank were the only time I could rest uninterrupted, and they helped me be able to bear the pain until I was able to get surgery for a badly herniated disc and degenerated disc. His knowledge and expertise are incredible, and he is personable and caring on top of it! I have referred a number of people to the Naperville Acupuncture Center because of the level of care that I received. I especially respect the work that they do because they care more about your well being than their profits. If you need an acupuncturist, I highly recommend that you go to see Frank and Angela! read more

I thought my initial treatment was good and I, quite frankly, felt a bit better. But my second and third treatments were quite different. During my first meeting with Frank, he was congenial, seemed knowledgeable and professional. During my subsequent treatments Frank breezed into the room, spoke almost not at all, put the needles in place and left the room without any questions regarding my prior treatment(s) results. His office person, Angela, removed the needles. Angela is very personable. Once home I decided that I didn't care for the treatment I received. So, I called their office and left a message that I would not be returning (I had three more visits scheduled). I was never called back. It was more like they took my money and ran with it. read more

Yes, acupuncture works! I've suffered from IBS pain and bloating for decades, changed my diet numerous times, tried over the counter and prescription meds, etc. Frank Grill explained how acupuncture has helped his other patients and his plan of treatment for me. After four sessions, two times per week, I saw a definite improvement in my symptoms - and it keeps improving. We then moved treatments to once a week, then once every two weeks, eventually moving to once a month, or finishing treatment. Frank makes suggestions on how to proceed with treatments, but it is never a hard sell, it is up to me to decide depending on how good I feel. He is very professional and knowledgeable about acupuncture and seems to have a constant stream of happy patients. Angela, his staff, is always helpful and positive. Give it a try - just go for a free consultation. read more

I have been seeing Dr. Frank Grill at NAC since May 2008 for migraine and sinus\allergy problems. Previous to seeing him I used to suffer from at least one migraine a week and had to take at least 2 allergy pills every morning to be able to function throughout the day. To date (11/13/09) I have not had a single migraine or taken an allergy pill since starting treatments with Frank. Talk about a part of life I DON'T miss! Also his assistant Angela is always friendly and helpful, the office is a relaxing environment to be in. I can't remember the last time I've been happier with a service provider! read more

Highly recommend! Helped alleviate pain I had been experiencing for months. It was a very pleasant experience and customized to my specific needs. I would encourage anyone to pay Frank and Angela a visit and get relief. read more

At start, admittedly skeptical of entire concept of acupuncture but after trying meds, creams, cortisone shots and wraps for an arthritic foot, I sought treatment & was blown away by the relief acupuncture provided. Don't get me wrong, it is not and likely will never be a permanent 'cure' but I felt immediate relief after ONE treatment and now after 6 sessions, will testify that the pain / discomfort level has significantly diminished over the past 3 weeks. As pleased as I am with the results, the courtesy & professionalism of the staff of 2 (Angela & Frank) was equally impressive. Would highly recommend both for results and for patronizing a local establishment that actually values and appreciates your business. read more

I was highly skeptical of acupuncture and more importantly terrified to poke needles in my body till I came to this Acupuncture Center. I had been through several years (about 8) of knee pain and tried several treatments - till my Doctor recommended Frank Grill for acupuncture treatment. After about 1-2 years of regularly irregular treatments (I am a bad patient!) I am now able to run, skip and JUMP. Can't thank Frank and Angela enough for their patience dedication and persistence. I also want to thank them for keeping the costs of treatment reasonable enough so it did not cost me an arm and a leg :) It enabled me to continue the treatment till I was properly healed - now that's what health care should be all about - THANK YOU to have got me back on my feet to run. I have completed 3 half marathons and looking to move up to marathons and hopefully the ultras - yay! read more

I had been having trouble with an arm that would "fall asleep" at night- waking me up and causing discomfort. I asked my physician about it, my chiropractor, and my massage therapist. All of their solutions offered minor relief. But, after only two treatments with Naperville Acupunture, I realized I wasn't having this problem any longer! I can honestly say I look forward to the treatments- they are painless and bring great relief to my tight neck and shoulders. read more

Frank is wonderful, as is Angela, the office manager. I have been going to Frank roughly once a quarter for 5 years now. Yesterday I went for a routine tune-up; I'd been fighting something off. Just before I was ready to head out, I remembered that I'd been experiencing chronic, on-and-off, low-level pain for about a year, ever since injuring myself doing yoga at home. It had never before flared up while I was at Frank's office, but I happened to remember it yesterday. I mentioned it to Frank, and he asked me where the pain was. He did a very quick follow-up treatment on the exact spot, and my back is now pain-free. I have been impressed with Frank for a long time, since he's treated everything from colds to arm injuries, but this blew me away. My back hasn't felt this good in a year, and I'm especially pleased since I'd resigned myself to living with this back pain for the rest of my life (after another health professional said nothing could be done). Go Frank! Thank you so much for your gentle manner and your expertise and encouragement. read more

Suffering extreme back and hip pain I sought any relief possible. I found it here. It took 3 visits to clear me of my back and hip pain. Frank then started working on my knee pain. I never felt any pressure to buy large blocks of treatment just use the treatments I needed. I thought the prices were reasonable. Franks is thoughtful and Angela is inviting and helpful. This was my 1st experience with acupuncture and will come here in the future if my pain reoccurs . Thanks Frank Grill. read more

Naperville Acupuncture Center is a fantastic business. After 11 years of intense pain going to doctor to doctor for answers, I was told by the head of GI at Northwestern that I needed multiple surgeries (I was even recommended to go to Mayo clinic). I gave up with traditional medicine and saw Frank. I had several acupuncture sessions that relived hip pain I was having and Frank recommended that I give up Gluten. 48 hour later, I was a normal person again. I cannot believe that gluten had made my life miserable for 11 years. I am shocked that it took someone really listening to figure out what was wrong with me. Thanks Frank! read more

I have been a long time patient of Dr. Frank's. I was going once a month just to maintain good health and because the cost is so reasonable for all the benefits of his treatment. I fell out of the habit due to a busy schedule. Recently I developed some knee pain that kept getting worse. After only 2 treatments I am thrilled to say it has completely disappeared. For almost any medical issue, I turn to Dr.Frank first before ever going for traditional Western medicine. I will certainly make a point of making my monthly appointments again.! Pat Cherny read more

A long time battler of stress and allergies is completely grateful for this place. They always get me in, I find relief, and if applicable suggestions are made regarding herbs to take. Frank is knowledgeable, diligent, professional and kind. I also used this facility when I quit smoking. 4 visits to Frank and I have not smoked in 14 months. Give them a call,try it out,what do you have to lose... The rates are more than fair! read more

Thank you Frank for helping me forget I have a left foot. Within a short period of time of starting acupuncture I noticed a big difference. I love to dance and my aching foot was keeping me off the floor. The day prior to my last visit was the first time in a year that I was able to complete an entire dance class without foot pain. I am so happy to be able to Cha Cha again. :) not to mention go about my daily activities without thinking about my foot. This was my first acupuncture experience and I was extremely pleased with the results. Frank and Angela have created a very relaxing environment for treatment. Thank you Frank & Angela. read more

In April of 2010 I experience severe lower back pain. MRI showed L5 bulged disc, and moderate degenerative disc disease. For 3 to 4 mths I tried physical therepy and 2 sessions of the steriod shot in the L5 directly. During these months I experienced siadic pain and numming in the toes off and on. The most painful thing to do was sitting especially in the car. I was coming up to my 3rd steriod shot and did not want to and I did not feel real resoltes, so I looked elsewhere, ACUPUNCTURE. My 1st acup. session I experienced more mobility without pain the 2nd session my siadic pain was GONE. At the beginning I would go to acup. once a week for 2months and during this time I was still doing all my excercises from my physical therapy. I am a strong believer in ACUPUNCTURE AND IN FRANK. I am doing so much better and I use acupuncture as a maintenance drug free solution. I hope my story helps you in the right direction. Oh, by the way I am a 35 year young mom of a 3 yr. and 1 yr old. read more

I have had terrible neck pain for months from badly spraining a previous injury. It has kept me from sleeping at night even with pain medicine, or kept me from doing much during the day as any movement got it aching. I have been to the Naperville Acupuncture clinic only twice so far and I really feel like a new person. I have very little neck pain and my whole body feels better. The little bit of soreness I now have is in places I can locate and massage, not deep inside the muscle tissue. Acupuncture there is an easy procedure where you lay back and he puts a few tiny acupuncture needles in classic places and then you just relax for an hour. The doctor is very kind and makes sure that you are comfortable and Angela, his receptionist, is a licensed nurse that also makes sure that you are comfortable. He offers very reasonable prices also. Don't continue to suffer when there is help available! read more
