Paul Carter, Acupuncturist & Herbalist

Paul Carter’s insight into the cause of my mystery illness saved my life!After many weeks of the most excruciating pain, sleepless nights, inability to eat, and a strange progressive paralysis which was afflicting both my arms and legs, no medical personnel could determine what was wrong with me.After six trips to hospital emergency departments, an abdominal ultrasound, a chest-and-abdominal CT Scan, a nuclear scan of my gallbladder, a gastroscopy, and more than twenty chest and abdominal X-rays, no one could figure out what was causing my incredible pain, weakness, and numbness. The pain all over my upper body was like being burned alive.By the time Paul saw me for the first time, I could barely walk on my own. I did not have the strength to dress myself, bathe myself, or comb my own hair. My hands wouldn’t work – I couldn’t even press a cell phone hard enough to answer an incoming call. I just moaned and whimpered through the 24 hours of each day, writhing in agony. And then I came down with Bell's palsy, which is a facial paralysis.I couldn’t lie on my back because of the searing pain in my upper back, and I couldn’t lie on my sides because of the agony it caused in my arms. So I propped myself up in various sitting positions and attempted to dose off, which hardly ever happened. I just existed in a living hell, watching the functions of my body fail, one after another. I could hardly breathe, because the numbness and paralysis had extended to my diaphragm, and my chest could not move in and out to accommodate proper breathing. My peristaltic action had ceased, so my bowels wouldn’t function. It was clear to me that I was on a fast track towards death.It was all such a mystery, because I had been a perfectly healthy person before the onslaught of this illness.Thankfully, at my first appointment with Paul, he took all these factors into consideration. After carefully listening to my story and employing Chinese medicine diagnostic techniques, Paul told me, “I think your body is being attacked by something external, something like a toxin or a venom. I don’t think your problems are coming from an internal condition such as cancer or an autoimmune disease. I think it’s something else – maybe something like Lyme disease.”“Lyme disease!” I said, in shock. “That’s my worst nightmare! I hope I don’t have Lyme disease!”However, I took Paul’s suggestion to heart and pressed my nurse practitioner to give me the test for Lyme disease. It was my impression that she agreed just to humour me. She didn’t have any idea what was causing my symptoms and had referred me to a neurologist, but that was going to take time.The day that my Lyme disease test came back positive was such a shock. To the best of my knowledge, I had not had a tick bite. I had never even seen a tick on my body!With Paul’s wonderful acupuncture treatments, my searing pain had rapidly lessened even before the official Lyme diagnosis. I couldn't believe the weeks of agonizing pain could simply end, but the pain just disappeared. Also, Paul's treatments had caused the Bell’s palsy on the right side of my face to quickly reverse, and that side of my face returned to normal.Paul's treatments, along with the many weeks of antibiotics which my nurse practitioner prescribed, relieved all my symptoms. The paralysis subsided and the feeling returned to my limbs. Paul also gave me herbs to speed the healing.The immense damage that the Lyme bacteria did to my nervous system will take a long time to perfectly heal, yet I am confident that I will be able to return to normal in every way. Each day I grow in strength and energy level. It is an amazing process of gradual rebirth.Throughout it all, one thing always remains true for me. If it wasn’t for Paul Carter, I don’t think I’d be here at all. My gratitude to him knows no bounds.

I have only seen Paul once thus far but I have to honestly say, he is very kind, caring & compassionate! That alone means so much to me, it makes a huge difference when you are in a lot of pain! Paul was very thorough explaining the treatments he would be doing on me and all I can say, I already feel assured and confident that he is going to do his very best to help me! 🥰

My experience with Acupuncturist & Herbalist, Paul Carter was extremely satisfying. As a somewhat new patent to this modality of healing, his ability to effectively communicate the application and capabilities of Chinese medicine was assuring. On top of that, Paul is very easy going and an honest practitioner. I highly recommend the services of Paul Carter.

Paul is a wonderful acupuncturist. He cares about how you are feeling when you arrive until you leave. He is very knowledgeable about the Chinese herbs and meridians. The cupping experience is an added bonus to his clinic! Highly recommend!

Dr Paul Carter has a gift!!!I had terrible neck pain from whiplash and no movement to one side and Dr Carter cured it INSTANTLY! Literally instantly! A few well positioned needles (an injury that others have tried to fix but couldn't) was gone! Pain free! All movement restored.Then an old knee injury he touched and the heat went out of it. Then again a few needles and all swelling and pain.... gone!!! I highly recommend Dr Carter!

Paul is a master. He has treated my migraines and chronic neck / back ache(of which I have suffered for the last 3-4 years) over the last 10 weeks and I can now safely say that life is a lot more enjoyable and pain free. He is a "jedi" of pain. Not satisfied until he fully understand where the pain is coming from (structural, emotional, spiritual). The Chinese herbs compliment his acupuncture skills. Gold.

Do yourself a favor and see Paul. I have had sleep problems most of my life, including sleepwalking. After a single acupuncture session you can see the difference in my fitbit sleep monitor - amazing result. Waking up with more energy, less stressed and much calmer and rested.

Dr Paul Carter is an incredible healer. I suffered monthly migraines for years and his treatments helped me eliminate them completely. His kind, caring, and professional care is hard to find. So grateful to have found him!

There are never enough words that can express the grattitude I have for someone who has provided me a safe, warm and inviting space to heal and strengthen my self awarness.The customised methods that Dr Paul uses by combining acupuncture, chinese herbal medicine, nutritional advice and mindfulness techniques has been more than just a standard practioner's service for me, he is a carer that nurtures your mind, body and soul.The overall treatment has and will continue to aid in teaching me how to connect my mind and body on this personal journey which allows me to work towards a sustainable positive lifestyle that enables me to be the best version of myself. Thank you Dr Paul!

I have a workplace injury and after 3years in conjunction with other treatments I have been working with Paul on areas to assist with everyday pain including stress and ongoing body pain which is well worth the 2times a week I see him. Paul is extremely professional and caring for better results with his experience in this field I highly recommend his work practice

Paul makes me feel instantly comfortable as soon as I enter his space. It is calming and comfortable, a place where you feel totally at ease. He is professional and personable. Every time I leave his space I am blown away with the things he achieves using Acupuncture and Chinese herbs. I highly recommend Paul.

I had recurring sessions with Paul when he was in Australia and he consistently helped my entire body with different modes/methods of treatment. He is truly connected to the energy and has a special talent for honing in what you and your body needs for restoration and recovery. Antigonish is lucky to have him!!

I was just passing through Antigonish and was recommended by friends to see Paul for my back pain. They told me he is new in town but has a lot of experience in Australia. I wasn't sure about acupuncture for the pain. I've had it before to relax and enjoyed the experience. When I arrived, Paul was friendly and professional. He found the painful spot and started putting needles in my hand. It was all opposite to what I had thought. After the 3rd needle all the pain was gone. He did a couple more needles for my fast mind and told me to relax. Well I fell asleep I was so relaxed. I woke up without pain and it was really good for a week. He told me I'd need more treatments and I needed regular acupuncture for the pain and exercise to strengthen my back. For anyone in Antigonish or traveling through I'd recommend seeing Paul. Very impressed.

Dr Paul Carter is incredibly talented at what he does. His healing hands helped eliminate my monthly migraines. I can't describe the gratitude I have for the gift of being migraine free while under his care! He is kind, understanding, professional, and above all very experienced.
