Alpine Acupuncture

It really made a difference! I had bursitis in my hip and general inflammation and pain. In just a few sessions it was all gone and I could run again. Carleton was helpful about my insurance coverage and generally kind. I highly, highly recommend him!

Carleton is an amazing acupuncturist! He is kind, thoughtful, and gentle in his approach. Book an appointment with his office - you won't regret it!

I lead an active lifestyle, between outdoor pursuits, training, working on my feet, and being an involved daddy for a 4 year old. Lots of aches and pains associated with all those things, and this acupuncture practice has facilitated healing of all those including diminishing my stress levels. I would recommend this practice to anyone.

I initially started going to Alpine Acupuncture during my fertility journey (which was successful!). Along the way I found that Carleton was able to help me better manage my sleep issues and occasional anxiety. I would and do recommend this practice to anyone looking for Acupuncture or looking to manage a variety of ailments or concerns. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and the trust I've found in this practice!

Carlton is a kind, caring and effective provider who has significantly improved my lower body nerve pain. Can't say enough about how much he has helped me!

Carleton is Great. I found that he really listened to my concerns and explained in detail his recommendations. I had a real fear of Accupuncture and he calmed my fears. I had both Accupunture and dry needle which his procedure woke up the muscle and really made a difference.

I have used Alpine Acupuncture for some time. Everyone is very friendly, accommodating, and professional. The facility is clean and welcoming. I have seen great benefit in my personal health from receiving acupuncture treatments at Alpine. Highly recommend!

So far I have enjoyed and seen/felt improvement from my visits to see Carleton. He is patient and knows what he is doing. I have had neck pain for years and have felt better after my visits. I will keep going! thanks

I had been suffering from lateral epicondylitis ("tennis" elbow, from snowmobiling) for nearly a year when I started seeing Carlton. It was somewhat improved from work with a physical therapist and at home exercises/treatment but it was not getting any better and still very painful and limiting. I saw Carlton 10 times after which there was SIGNIFICANT improvement in the condition.

Since then it has continued to heal and become less and less painful. Four months since my first appointment with Carlton I am nearly pain free and have full use of the arm again. I definitely attribute this to Carlton's experience and skill as I witnessed first hand his ability to place needles in such a way as to block the pain entirely during treatment.

Overall I found treatments to be very relaxing and comfortable. Their exam rooms have heated tables, music playing and ambient lighting. Carlton and Katja are wonderful people and run a great business. I had zero.zero issues during my time there and always had an easy time with scheduling and payments.

I have been treated by Carleton for several ailments through the years. He is knowledgeable and caring. After each session I feel so much better. Check out his web page, then make an appointment! I highly recommend Carleton and Alpine Acupuncture.

Carelton, knows how to work with many different issues. He even did pressure points with my son, who was afraid of the needles. He has allowed me to eat foods, I am reacting poorly too and he has helped me through some VERY difficult times emotionally and physically. Acupuncture is just the best.

I first saw Carleton for an acute and quite serious soft tissue knee injury. Thanks to his treatments, my recovery went smoothly and quickly. Since then, he has treated me for cold and respiratory congestion. Again, my body healed quite quickly. I have used acupuncture for years and understand how practitioner-dependent it is. I cannot say enough about Carlton's treatment and use of various techniques to address the issue at hand. Also, he is never rushed and runs on-time.

He genuinely knows his patients and is a keen listener who seeks to understand the whole patient. I also suffered from low iron and was working with another physician taking iron IVs, when Carlton suggested a Chinese herb that I cannot spell--- it worked quickly and my iron levels are better. Thank you, doctor!

I went to see Carleton just to 'try' acupuncture awhile back and now. Carleton and acupuncture have become my version of self care. When I go in we talk about what's going on in my life emotionally, mentally and/or physically and then Carleton adjusts accordingly. I lie there, totally zen and leave ready to face whatever I've been stressed about, with a healthier attitude and more at peace.

Dr. M is amazing. Acupuncture is practitioner-dependent and he delivers. He treated me for a Serious soft tissue injury and I had a speedy recovery. He has a true gift for understanding what one's body needs. Nothing short of an incredible healing journey. He is quite personable and takes the time and energy to get to know each patient. His office runs like a Swiss train- very punctual, no waiting around or delays. And his appointments are 60 minutes- true healing can take place. I recommend Alpine Acupuncture without hesitation.

Love this place, Carlton is great at providing treatment for my different ailments. He makes the process comfortable as possible. Convenient location, always on time, and great facility.

I started seeing Carlton in 2013 and immediately found a dramatic reduction in pain for a chronic shoulder condition. Alpine acupuncture is now part of my regular routine for maintenance and I can feel the difference (in a bad way) if I go too long between visits. Over the years Carlton has helped address other acute problems that have come up. His massage experience is another bonus and he can release tight muscle knots with dry needling in seconds. Highly recommended!

I have been using Carleton Magus and his team at Alpine Acupuncture for at least 6 years now. From my personal experience there is nothing that Acupuncture cannot treat - I have used Alpine to treat my allergies. I highly recommend Carleton and his team at Alpine Acupuncture!

Alpine Acupuncture is amazing! I first went to see Carleton a couple of years ago because I was dealing with tendinitis in my elbow. After seeing a doctor and was told that the only thing that would help was a cortisone shot! I decided to seek another way to help my aching elbow. I decided to give acupuncture a try. Carleton was super knowledgable and explained the process and how it was going to work.

After a couple of visits I was brand new, and my elbow has never felt better. I was back to my old bad golf swing again! Unfortunately Carleton couldn't fix that part, but a good golf swing has been a work in progress for years! I still see Carleton for my autoimmune condition and he's a miracle worker, besides I've never slept so good in a place that's not my own bed!

I would reccomend Alpine Acupuncture to anyone in need of relief from pain and discomfort of many different things. I also think Acupuncture is great even if you use need to get 'centered'!

I noticed my PMS symptoms had changed. I was much more tired, cramping to the point of vomiting, all over emotions and foggy brain. A co-worker and friends of mine suggested Acupuncture. I have gone in the past for digestive issues and found it rewarding. Carleton was very knowledgeable. He explained the science behind the process. In matter of three months I really saw a decrease in my PMS symptoms. I'm still going to continue to go as part of my self care regimen. Thank you Carleton.

I have been seeing Carleton for about a year now to treat Antibiotic toxicity from a dose of Levaquin. After my first treatment I regained my appetite for the first time in a week. Since then he has been able to help with many of my ever-changing symptoms including anxiety, depression, neuropathy, sinus issues, stiff muscles, etc. He also spends extra time with me to dry needle my many trigger points. Would highly recommend to anyone who is interested in improving their health naturally.

Dr. Carleton Magus is a wonderful acupuncturist and kind human being. He has been very helpful in healing my mother's frozen shoulder. His calm and caring presence has helped to alleviate my mom's anxiety around needles and her pain. Highly recommend him and his clinic!

I had neck and shoulder pain for 8 months! A doctor even suggested surgery. Thanks to Carleton's treatment, I didn't need to go that route. Alpine acupuncture led me to recover. I also tried a different highly-rated acupuncture place - Alpine Acupuncture is way more effective on me. I recommend his service without reservation. He is professional, caring, and truly want patient to get well.

Highly recommend. I had a wonderful experience at Alpine Acupuncture! Carleton is very experienced and skilled at what he does, and very attentive to your needs.

Carleton is great! He listens and adapts his therapy based on my feedback. I experienced relief from chronic hip/leg pain after 5-6 sessions. I'm now seeing a PT to address deeper structural issues, and I continue to see Carleton for acupuncture every 1-2 months for maintenance.

I have never had acupuncture before, but after my 3rd baby was born, I had a nagging numbness and pain in my fingers that wouldn't go away. My doctor said it would go away in time but that wasn't good enough for me as I am on the computer most of my day and the tingling with each tap on the keyboard was driving me nuts. I decided to try acupuncture and met with Carlton.

He took time to understand my story and took great care of me. After 2 treatments, my numbness was completely gone! I hope I never have a reason to go back but he will be my first stop for sure if I'm ever in pain again. I'm a believer now!

Great guy, awesome work! I recommend him to everyone! He is my go to guy for allergies. My 7 year old and I have had great luck with allergies.

I saw all the amazing reviews of Carlton on Yelp so I went to him enthusiastically with several issues, including IBS. He assured me that he could treat it no problem so I did an hour of acupuncture. The weekend following my Thursday appointment I noticed I had a great many more flareups than before. I brought it up to our Monday sessions where Carlton asked a few questions but said it was too long after our Thursday session for it to be related.

That monday session he did the needles plus a heat lamp above my stomach to I guess help but nothing was communicated to me. The days after that appointment were terrible. I had to take a Lyft home from my office in downtown back to the east side because I was in so much pain. It was absolutely terrible. I dealt with increasing worse and worse pain for 2 weeks until I went to the ER.

The Dr did a CT scan and blood work and didn't find anything of note. Took steroids to help with the spasms and got to a very basic diet to try and reset my body. Why is this two stars? I understand that with acupuncture you can get worse before you got better but nothing was ever explained to me that this would be the case (I had to look it up myself) and my ailments were discarded as being not related. Is it possible that my issues occurred outside the treatment I was receiving? Absolutely. I just think the timing is extremely convenient, if not logical, to tie some sort of causation to what I was receiving at Alpine.

Alpine Acupuncture is amazing! I have been going to Carleton for a few years and am extremely please. He is very knowledgeable and gets great results. I am also a provider and refer my patients to him. I highly recommend Carleton Magus!

Carleton helped me recover from vertigo with his treatments! Can't say enough great things about the Magus duo!

Carleton is great to work with & has helped to reduce the stress and tension in my shoulders and neck, along with the frequency and duration of my migraines. He is very knowledgeable about Chinese medicine and herbs, which has been extremely helpful in the treatment process. Would definitely recommend Alpine Acupuncture to anyone!

Carleton was responsive to initial inquiries and helpful in gaining a first appointment. My symptoms of back pain and not sleeping well due to pregnancy were alleviated upon the first treatment and have continued to improve after the second and third! I had tried acupuncture in the past and saw ok results, I believe his method is working.

Carleton is excellent. Very thorough, thoughtful and I find the whole process relaxing. His knowledge with Chinese Herbs is astounding. he treated "the whole person" and I will continue to use him.

Alpine Acupuncture treated me for my severe allergies. They took my severe and debilitating allergies and made them bearable if not unnoticeable! Acupuncture is a relatively pain free experience and most times very relaxing for me and I get to have a nice nap during treatment. i always want to tell people who cant find allergy relief to look into acupuncture. and if you live in the Seattle Eastside go to Alpine Acupuncture.

I saw Carlton last year and he was absolutely amazing! His acupuncture is fantastic and his explanation of my health and what was occurring was clear and accurate. He was kind, considerate, caring and is one of the best at what he does. I will also say his visceral manipulation is also outstanding.

Carlton at Alpine Acupuncture has done a great job sorting out and working with my intolerances. When I first came in I had an idea of what was bothering me but the techniques and results blew me away! He knew right away what to treat and the treatment was fun and relaxing! I highly recommend Carlton for helping family and friends reduce inflammation and increase their energy!

Carleton is amazing! He knows exactly what he's doing, takes the time to really listen and does a great job. Highly, highly recommend!

After suffering with high anxiety, stress, neck tension, and panic attacks for over 10 plus years, I went to Carleton for help. Because I had these symptoms for so long, I knew that patience would be a key with this treatment. Gradually, all of my symptoms have disappeared or are practically gone. Today, I see Carleton once a month to maintain a healthy balance. I would highly recommend Carleton.

I am a believer! First visit to relieve severe pain in my legs from a long term injury. Not only worked but the treatment allowed me to extend my legs and stand up straight for the first time in years. Highly recommended.
