A month and a half ago, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and decided
to get surgery and reconstruction in Kalispell. I have been getting
acupuncture for several years and my friend
in Whitefish took me to
see James Madison for a consultation prior to surgery. I was impressed
at how carefully
and unhurried he took my pulses and other diagnostics
as well as his intuitive care, he treated me more as an individual
than any other acupuncturist I had seen. He deliberately mixed dozens
of chinese herbs that would work for exactly
my particular body, to
nourish the blood and calm my mind. When I thought about surgery, my
chest got
tight and I had a hard time breathing into my belly but
after taking the herbs, my chest was open and able to intake
all
available oxygen. After surgery, I continued to be treated with
acupuncture and herbs from James
and my healing has been well ahead of
schedule ever since. I'd recommend James for anyone trying to support
their wellness. I am so grateful for Jame's careful treatment and
attention to treating me as an individual and
would recommend him for
anyone dealing with a serious health issue.

"I had tennis
elbow for almost one year, it was painful just to lift up a cup of coffee and type at the computer. After 4 to 6 weeks with
James expertise with acupuncture, I am still pain free 8 months later. He is professional and good at what he does".

I am a physical + massage Therapist. I suffered for over 6 months with a tendonitis
injury in my elbow from over use during hockey season. I had resorted to taking ibuprofin, was wearing night splints, performing
daily stretching, and self massage techniques. I had limited function and was awaking every morning with discomfort. After
just 1 visit with James, I improved about 85%. His work opened up the necessary healing channels to allow the energy
to finally pass thru. It was truly amazing. He has a wonderful gift. James has since helped me with an
acute back spasm which resolved after 1 treatment. I am truly grateful for James' Community Outreach Program which
allows his services to be available for a sliding fee. He is a dedicated acupunturist in this Whitefish community!

Having been at the end-of-my-rope with a knee problem, I decided to seek alternative-medical help, and stumbled on
James' info on the acupuncture certification web site. What a break to find someone with so much experience, patience,
and insight right here in Whitefish MT. I didn't appreciate his abilities until I was back to normal in after only
3 sessions (and 2 weeks worth of herbs). Next time I hurt myself, I'm not going to wait as long, and will feel confident
in that James will be there to put the pieces back together!

Back in 1999, I had several health problems. I don’t know what would have happened to me if
I had not met James Madison! I had a chronic lung condition (had pneumonia several times in the past), high blood pressure,
lack of energy, and many other issues. I am allergic to most commercial drugs, and I really don’t choose to deal with
the typical side effects that follow long term conventional medical approaches. James worked patiently and diligently with
me with both acupuncture and herbs, and my conditions gradually improved and stabilized. James is very thorough and conscientious,
and always took the time to answer my questions. He thoroughly researched countless herbal combinations to most effectively
deal with my varying conditions. When James moved to Montana in 2004, I was devastated, but he kindly recommended another
local acupuncturist and my condition continues to improve. I still order my herbs from James by phone…..he’s
just the best!

After watching my wife’s progress, I decided to start
seeing James Madison and find out if acupuncture and custom herbs could help me with the pain in my hands (combination of
arthritis and carpal tunnel). Slowly but surely, there was definite improvement. My work entails extensive time on the computer,
and I was concerned I would not be able to continue my work until retirement. I’m confident now that I will be able
to continue my line of work indefinitely---for as long as I choose. Based on my improvement, my wife and I decided to ask
James to develop an herbal formula for our 8 year old Australian Shepherd, who suffered from arthritis, skin rashes and also
from occasional seizures. Today (March 13) is his eleventh birthday, and he is still doing quite well compared to a few years
ago.

Dear James,
Thank you for your help in clearing my skin conditions.
With your treatments and herbs, my symptoms have almost completely disappeared, something which has never happened with conventional
treatment. My skin rashes are gone, and my roseacea is almost nonexistent, except when I do something like spend too much
time in the sun. You have always been kind and thorough and thoughtful. I am thankful that I have been able to have you treat
me.
Sincerely,
Diana Sisson
I was a patient of James Madison for 10 years. I suffered from neck and shoulder pain due to automotive
accidents. After years of chiropractic treatments I switched to acupuncture/massage. The acupuncture treatments restore my
energy and got to the root of the injuries. Over the last several years I would see James every few months for massages. James
had always provided the best treatments and is truly hard to replace.

I first went to James for a chronic back problem that I'd had for
17 years. He certainly helped when my overworking caused bad flare-ups and, in addition, his care caused my back to become
much stronger. An unexpected blessing is that, in the way he treats you as a whole person, his skills in acupuncture and Chinese
herbs, as well as helping my back, over a couple of years brought about a definite rise in the level of my total health.
Cynthia Soller, Borrego Springs, California
I am a
consultant and negotiator for U.S. companies in China and Taiwan. When I travel I see the best Chinese doctors and get great
massages; however I always look forward to seeing James. James does massage as I want it, while incorporating hot packs and
acupuncture. The treatments relieve pain and ease my stress. Now that he has moved I miss our friendship and receiving treatments.
