This Yelp review is WHY I teach my patients to advocate for themselves ♥️ This patient was told to have surgery by 3 surgeons for spinal stenosis, but with a closer look at her case with a telehealth together, we created a treatment plan for her by trying alternative methods such as acupuncture/acupressure plus physical therapy. Rather than jumping into a risky surgery for a 40 year old female, we decided to have her try these methods for a few months then go in for a follow up MRI.
***Yesterday, she got her MRI results and her prognosis changed from severe spinal stenosis to moderate! Her imaging came back much better and her doctor agreed that surgery was NOT necessary.
This proves that acupuncture CAN help spinal issues such as pain, stenosis, inflammation and more. Surgery should be the absolute LAST resort, as their are real consequences and risks involved.
I am so happy that I could help this wonderful patient of mine to prevent surgery and feel better naturally! Nothing gives me greater joy to EMPOWER my patients to trust their intuition and improve their quality of life 🙌
My own story in becoming an acupuncturist is because I became my own advocate for my health. Otherwise, I would have been sedated on several antidepressants in my 20’s for depression, got two unnecessary C-sections with my babes births and continued to be bedridden with fatigue from undiagnosed Lyme disease. I literally saved my OWN life last year.
And now, I can pay it forward for my patients and teach them the same principles for a better, healthier life 🌷
