What Our Patients Have to Say

I was diagnosed with MS in 2008. During this time I have tried all sorts of holistic and alternative treatments. These treatments would show some results for a short period of time but nothing lasted. I have been seeing Dr. E for a month now and am seeing results. He did an extensive intake and gave me feedback in clear and concise language and is not dismissive as some providers can be. He continues to ask me about any new issues and reviews previous visits to ensure that the treatments are working. My current ailments have been severe fatigue and muscle spasms. Dr. E really listened to me when I expressed that I never sleep more than two hour intervals. All other doctors have suggested medication but Dr. E suggested some herbal supplements. I was skeptical as I have tried quite a few and had little to no change in sleep. I am excited to report that within three days of using the herbs I slept five hour interval. I continue to sleep at around this time frame and am able to fall back to sleep within 20 mins as opposed to hours.

I also have the muscle spasms which are painful and can be debilitating and Dr. E has explained what my body is doing and has “prescribed” alternative methods along with herbal supplements and massage and I am happy to report these are becoming less of an issue on a daily. I could not be more pleased with the services provided. I would also like to give a shout out to Debbie the office manager. I am a veteran and am able to use the VA benefits but as we all know that can be a cumbersome world to navigate. By my second visit she had the authorizations and was able to schedule all of my approved visits. She also is spot on with reminder/confirmation text messages and will answer any office related questions in a timely manner. I absolutely could go on and on about Dr. E and Debbie and how wonderful they are. I highly recommend that if you are having any type of issue and would like to try something other than Western medicine you give this office a call and be prepared to get well from the inside out. Truly a mind, body, and soul experience!

Without question, this was an incredible experience. Dr. E is a “savant” when it comes to reading muscular and emotional tension in the human body, and he was able to help me resolve a number of issues within only a few visits.

The first issue that I developed was a tight mid-back, followed by tight hip flexors, and a tight lower back. Dr. E identified exactly how these 3 issues were connected to each other, then proceeded to develop a customized treatment plan tailored to my specific needs. As someone who has tried a variety of treatments for my chronic discomfort, I can honestly say that Dr. E’s approach was a breath of fresh air.

From the moment I stepped into his clinic, I was greeted with warmth, professionalism, and a genuine concern for my well-being. The soothing ambiance and calming music only added to the overall sense of serenity, putting me at ease and creating the perfect environment for healing.

Dr. E began my sessions with a comprehensive assessment of my posture, mobility, and overall body alignment, demonstrating his commitment to understanding the root causes of my discomfort. Through his skilled hands and keen intuition, he was able to detect subtle imbalances that I was completely unaware of. His precise needling technique was virtually painless, and I could feel the tension in my muscles dissipate almost immediately.

Throughout the treatment process, Dr. E consistently communicated with me to ensure that I was comfortable and informed. He patiently explained the rationale behind each acupuncture point and the role it played in restoring balance to my body. This level of transparency and education not only built trust, but also empowered me to take an active role in my own healing journey.

After just a few sessions, I experienced a dramatic improvement in my flexibility, mobility, and overall comfort. My mid-back, lower back, and hip flexors felt noticeably looser, and the chronic tension that had been plaguing me for years had finally subsided. It was nothing short of a miracle.

In summary, my experience with Dr. E was truly transformative. His expertise, compassion, and dedication to his craft are evident in every aspect of his practice. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. E to anyone seeking relief from muscular and emotional tension – he is, without a doubt, a master in his field.

Am a (senior age) athlete – basketball, rugby, fitness classes, etc. Due to various injuries and probable overuse across the years – approx a year ago developed constant aggravation in hip, glute, quads areas lasting for months – tried rest, ice, compression, elevation – plus PT, massage, etc. No significant progress UNTIL I found Dr Eisenman recently. In a few short focused treatments (plus extremely valuable insights and advice about diet, exercise, stretch etc for me to perform myself) – I am back sprinting, jogging, walking pain free – enjoying athletics again. Dr Eisenman is very passionate and knowledgeable – and quite willing to share helpful tips just out of his positive nature. Very appreciate thanks!

It’s a good idea to wear loose, comfortable clothing. If you need to change clothes, we have patient gowns available.

At Holistic Primary Care, we use a unique combination of acupuncture, specialized massage techniques, therapeutic stretching and “active release techniques” as well as functional medicine to work with many painful conditions in the body involving muscles and joints. Dr. Donald M. Eisenman DAOM AP, NMT, is an acupuncture physician, functional medicine practitioner, as well as a neuromuscular therapist, who focuses on root cause and brings over 18 ten years of experience in treating soft tissue dysfunction (which includes muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and connective tissue), and he explains that when there is pain people often feel the need to stretch the area that feels tight. However, the culprit may be a trigger point or myofascial restrictions (what most people would call a knot in the muscle). A trigger-point is a micro-tear which can happen in a shortened or lengthened muscle, and muscle adhesions in which case over-stretching may make the pain worse. By first assessing the body and determining root cause, we can bring back balance by addressing the muscles which have become shortened, tight or injured. This technique can bring relief where others have failed.

Keep in mind that most patients are coming in with a diagnosis from a western medical doctor. We may diagnose you differently and take it a step further by treating the root cause. In addition, we believe in treating you as an individual, because you are different than anyone on the planet! So we will look and listen carefully to your history and symptoms and how these express themselves uniquely in you. Painful conditions we treat include:
Sports related injuries, acute and chronic pain but not limited to hHerniated disc, bulging disc, spinal stenosis, arthritis, degenerative disc disease, sciatic pain, numbness and tingling, trouble walking, hip pain, low back pain, muscle weakness, joint pain, frozen shoulder, neck pain, reduced range of motion, wrist pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, leg-length difference, headache, migraine, TMJ, jaw pain, post-operative dental pain, post-surgical pain, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic injury, chronic pain, other unexplained pain.

This depends on the details of your particular insurance plan. We require payment at the time of your visit. We are out-of-network providers for most insurance plans. You can check and see if your plan covers out-of-network acupuncture and/or physical therapy, and you can ask if you have met your deductible yet. We can give a receipt to turn in for reimbursement or help you file a claim for your treatments if you are covered.

Besides achieving specific treatment goals, such as becoming pain-free or having a baby, we will discuss milestones to look for along the way. Some of these might be increased range of motion, better quality sleep, increased energy, noticing you are less reactive to stressful events, improved digestion, regular menstrual cycles, and so on. Acupuncture treatments have a cumulative effect, so it is important to be consistent in both keeping your appointments and following your treatment plan to have the best results.

We only use Chinese herbs from top-quality professional sources. We do not recommend purchasing herbs from the internet or from Chinese grocery stores due to the possibility of receiving contaminated or counterfeit products.

Acupuncture needles are very different from the injection needles you may have experienced at the doctor’s office. They are designed with a comfortable treatment outcome in mind, and many of our patients feel so relaxed that they fall asleep during the treatment. You will have plenty of time to discuss with your practitioner any questions or concerns you may have so that you feel safe and comfortable.

Yes, we do have non-needle treatments which can stimulate acupuncture points for an effective treatment. Some of these include low-intensity laser light, electro-acupuncture, moxibustion and cupping.

We may be a bit biased, but we’re extremely confident in our ability and desire to care for our patients. According to them, we are one of the best holistic doctors in St Petersburg FL. You don’t have to take our word for it though. Check out our testimonials here.

You will be charged a cancellation fee of up to the full price of the visit if you cancel less than 24 hours before your appointment or if you are a “no-show.” We hope you understand the reason for this policy—it is because we are reserving a large block of time for your treatment.
