Relieving Pain with Acupuncture & TCM
When my grandmother was suffering with back pain, I introduced her to acupuncture and we had the good fortune of getting a referral to Dr. Wei Yuan. She was consistently relieved when she received treatments and I was delighted that we kept her off serious meds for pain relief...
With such a track record of rewarding experiences at Dr. Yuan’s clinic, my most recent experience was the most remarkable. I managed to put my back out this year quite severely (as in no walking, sitting or standing for five days). The pain was excruciating, I was frightened and I had little choice but to use meds to cope. By day 5, when I was able to actually get my legs into a car, I was driven to the clinic and received consecutive treatments on days 5 and 6 that restored me to 90% functionality in 48 hours as well as relieved me from the NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) that I was using just to cope with the very basics of day to day living. I was both relieved an amazed at the same time. (Kim S)
