I started to see Dr. Norris about a week ago. I came in with symptoms of perimenopause, elevated…read moreblood pressure, hyperthyroidism and Graves' disease. I wasn't sleeping well and having hot flashes. During our consultation we had the BEST conversation about my symptoms, diagnosis, food, and lifestyle. For the first time I actually felt heard from someone who was willing to treat me without a prescription to mask the symptoms but get to the root cause of my problems. Once we finished talking about what steps we would take I had my first acupuncture treatment. I felt relaxed for the first time in a long time. I went home with 2 supplements to start treating my hot flashes and to help me sleep. I started adding Redmond salt to my water and adding electrolytes into my diet daily. I was amazed at how well I felt 4 days in just from that small change and the supplements decreased my hot flashes ten fold and I'm sleeping better than I have in over a year. I thought I was doing everything right, drinking only water and eating low carb, no sugar and fasting only to find out I wasn't eating or drinking for my body and blood type. At my second appointment we agreed to start tackling my thyroid and Graves' disease. Under his care I have no doubt I will be off my methimazole completely by fall, if not sooner. Dr. Norris took the time and continues to take the time to guide me on this journey of healing my body and educating me. I have never been happier with any other health care professional as I have been with Dr. Norris. He has completely changed my life for the better and I cannot thank him enough for what he has done for me. Mrs. Bonnie is also amazing! They make the perfect team!!

Let me begin by saying that Michael Norris, owner and acupuncture practitioner of Deep River…read moreWellness Center is the REAL DEAL. Here's my story and why I make this claim. Two years ago, I developed hemifacial spasms. The twitching was so debilitating, I was unable to read for more than a few minutes before the spasming was out of control. I was miserable and didn't know what else to do. My doctor ordered an MRI which resulted in a referral to a neurologist and a neurosurgeon who discussed brain surgery -- it was that serious. I opted instead to take medication to try to control the spasms and was subjected to some pretty strong drugs. Some of these drugs resulted in night terrors, tremors and disorientation. None of these drugs were able to completely control the spasming. I was also injected with Botox which did nothing except to droop my face so it looked like I had a stroke. I am from California and had a top notch acupuncture practitioner there, but when I moved to Knoxville, I had difficulty finding one who knew what s/he was doing. That is until I came upon Michael Norris from Deep River Wellness Center. I began bi-weekly treatments on 6/13/19 and within two months, the spasms were completely gone. I have even cut my medication in half and hope to be completely rid of the medications soon. Michael has given me hope and relief which is worth so much to me. I got back my ability to read, function and begin to live life more fully. It's natural for folks brought up in western cultures to be reluctant to try naturopathic approaches to health. I was reluctant when I had my first treatment in California more than 20 years ago, but after my first treatment, there was no question as to the value of this approach to wholeness, physical health and emotional well-being. So go ahead and give Michael a try -- you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Not only does she always have me leaving feeling relaxed and well taken care of, but she is also the most beautiful, sweet soul. I have recommended her to so many people for care, because she has helped me in so many ways over the years. She is also super accommodating with my schedule. I have never had any issues getting an appointment with her when I desperately needed treatment. I am so grateful she was recommended to me by old coworkers, because acupuncture with her has truly been life changing for me.

I have seen Dr McLaughlin for 8 sessions now. This is longer than most acupuncture treatments…read moreapparently, but I have multiple complex issues, not all of which can be treated at once. I originally came for my wrists and hands (pain and inflammation in joints, a serious, long-standing injury), but we sort of got interrupted by a spike in anxiety and switched to an anxiety treatment. First of all, he's very nice, experienced, scheduling is easy, you don't have to schedule far out and he's by far the most affordable in the area. I noticed modest improvement w my hands/wrists before interrupting it, but it's still very obvious he knows what he's doing. He also seems to expect quick progress, and tells me that if acupuncture doesn't begin helping more noticeably soon then we will try chiropracty. I feel confident he's treating me as quickly as possible and being honest about my disposition. I've done 2 anxiety treatments with FANTASTIC results. My anxiety dropped about 50% the first week. I had another session this morning and feel great today. If acupuncture can help your issue, Dr. McLaughlin will figure out how, and if not, he'll tell you. I highly recommend him to anybody.

As I am typing this, 6 hours after my session with him, my body is still on a "high" of feeling great and not noticing the chronic back and neck pain I usually have. I have had physical therapy and deep-tissue massage for my issues in the past. Mayur's work felt better than either of those attempts. I will continue to integrate Mayur's therapy into my overall health plan. I would recommend him to anyone, whether relaxation or pain relief is your goal. He is very honest and will work with you to come up with a treatment plan, taking the financial strain into consideration. He has also been super flexible in scheduling appointments, which makes getting in to see him much easier. I have gone to both his Alcoa office as well as his Knoxville office. Both are in nice areas where you will feel safe and welcome!

I saw him just this week for a tuneup and other injuries I have sustained due to working on my farm. Once again I felt 100% better when I left his office. I would highly recommend him to anyone with physical or energy ailments. he is a kindred soul, who has nothing but kindness and gentleness in his heart. I have referred several friends to him, and each one comes back with the same amazing stories that I have told.
