Ridgefield, CT - Dr. Christopher Mascetta, DC, Founder and Director of Ridgefield Chiropractic and Wellness Center, LLC is pleased to welcome Dr. Jonathon Kramer and the addition of acupuncture services to the practice.
Dr. Jonathon Kramer (Dr. Jon) is a native of Connecticut and a licensed practitioner of Oriental Medicine in Connecticut and Florida. He attended East West College of Natural Medicine receiving a Bachelors Degree in Health Sciences and a Masters Degree in Oriental Medicine. He studied closely under Dr. Zhu, a well-known chief physician in Zhejiang Province, China. Dr. Jon's studies include Classical and Chinese Medicine as well as Japanese Acupuncture, Homeopathy, Eastern and Western Botanical Medicinals and Clinical Nutritional Supplementation, studied at the East West College of Natural Medicine in Sarasota, Florida and is a practitioner of many styles of acupuncture including classical, Japanese, TCM and Global Balance.
As a practitioner, it is Dr. Kramer's use of this synergy of styles that makes acupuncture treatment powerful.
"Acupuncture balances out the rhythms of the body," explained Kramer. "It provides a physiological picture of body function including excesses and deficiencies with circulatory, vascular, digestive, adrenal and other systems."
Dr. Kramer utilizes a functional medicine approach and treats the body as a whole.
"With many life stressors placed on individuals today, an integrative approach to healing is essential. The interaction of one's environment and all of the body's systems is my focus in developing individual treatment plans tailored to each patient. Acupuncture is about treating the imbalances in each system," explains Kramer.
"My patients are typically experiencing minimal function, about 20%, by the time they start seeing the signs or feeling the symptoms of system imbalance," said Dr. Kramer. "People don't pay enough attention to the signals they are getting from their bodies. This low level function becomes their norm and cascades from there. We can restore functions of the body through various techniques in order to divert disease and prevent the body from getting to that critical point."
"With the addition of Dr. Kramer, Ridgefield Chiropractic & Wellness Center will be adding another beneficial treatment option to our roster of natural and alternative healthcare services. RCWC is committed to the improved health and well-being of our community and our patients," said Mascetta, Founder and Director of Ridgefield Chiropractic & Wellness Center. "Dr. Jon works diligently and compassionately to help people live up to their fullest potential to achieve well being in mind, body and spirit."
Dr. Kramer is currently available for appointments on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. He will be hosting a workshop at Ridgefield Chiropractic & Wellness Center on Saturday, December 14th at noon, "How to Win the Battle against Aging and Chronic Disease." This event is free and all are welcome.
