Success Stories

My practitioner is/has been such a blessing to me; Acupuncture is one of the few therapies that is helpful for my various health issues. My practitioner is highly skilled and compassionate.

My practitioner @ OHS is most knowledgeable and caring - I value every aspect of my care. My practitioner is sensitive, thorough, and is totally present when she is treating me. I trust her implicitly. Thank you for your effective, thoughtful, and thorough attention to my healthcare.

Wow. Today (Wednesday) I feel like a completely new man! I have run errands, washed my car, taken down the outside Christmas lights (!!!!!), cleaned the kitchen, the bathroom… and I’m still going strong. This is the kind of day that usually only Prednisone can produce!! :)

All my anxiety is gone, and what a beautiful day for that to happen. My lungs still feel a bit off, but mostly my body has relaxed, and obviously is full of energy. Hey, I’m going back outside to enjoy more of this.

Thanks again,

I hope your week is going well. I just wanted to touch base with you with some rather surprising development. When I saw you last week, I told you I was premenstrual. Well, those symptoms went away and this morning was my 18th day since ovulation with my temperature remaining very high. So I took a pregnancy test and it was positive! You can imagine my surprise after 3 ½ years of trying and 3 failed IVF cycles! My husband says you must have quite the magic touch!!! We’re obviously excited and rather stunned but we’re trying not to get carried away until we see what happens. I was just wondering whether you suggest I continue taking the herbs you gave me or should I stop? Thanks!

I went to the meditation at the Temple after your treatment yesterday and had the best meditation of my life. Thank you so very much for all the help on all the levels you are giving me.

I just had to write and let you know that the treatment worked! After I got home yesterday evening, I pumped milk and immediately noticed a strong stream coming from the right breast that was unusual as of late, and sure enough, the entire breast started emptying and is completely unblocked. Last night, I got the best sleep I’d had since giving birth. Thank you so much for helping me. So far, the breast is continuing to work well. The left breast is also doing well, although I may want to focus on it either Monday or in a later treatment, since it does have one or two small lumps that come and go. Hope you are having a great weekend and will see you Monday morning.

Regards,

Merry Christmas! Here is a new photo of our son. He is a constant joy. Thank you again for your assistance in bringing him here.

We forgot in the rush of the moment to exchange email addresses so I can order more pills when needed. I have clearly seen relief from most of the pain and 99% of the sinus blockage. I have not taken nose spray once since your treatment and the pills. Thank you so much for finding a better way to treat medical problems naturally. They work without the side effects. I hope to get back for another treatment very soon.

Just wanted to give you an update: My wife planned on coming back and seeing you, but we ended up having our baby early. We can’t thank you enough for the help you gave us in getting and staying pregnant. I’ve included a picture of the little guy. He’s doing fantastic.

Thank you so much!

Just thought you should know that eating fat with my meals is working like a charm. I have been eating like you suggested with all my meals and have not experienced heartburn since Tuesday, when I spoke to you. I am also drinking the special juice you recommended. My husband wanted to know if he could come in close to the time I am coming in on December 29th, I think my appointment is in the morning at 9 or 10. Thank you for all your great advice, it feels good not to have heartburn.

All my best,

I’ve been interested in health and healing since I can remember and for that reason chose to go to medical school to become a physician. Perhaps because of a mixture of my upbringing, my culture, and my own personal bent of mind, I’ve also been drawn to Eastern medicine – and especially Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Due to this interest I’ve exposed myself to numerous practitioners in the field of health, both as a patient and as a medical student, to both Eastern and Western philosophies, to both alternative and allopathic medicine; I have observed physicians, nurses, herbalists, acupuncturists, massage therapists, craniosacral practitioners, chiropractors, and the list goes on. I have observed the myriad ways that people can be helped back to health and am continually awed by the healing process. But I must say that the practitioners at Oriental Health Solutions left me especially impressed. Their knowledge base of Chinese and Japanese medicine is immense and their practice of it is thorough – unlike any I have seen to date: and I have had the opportunity to observe several practitioners of Chinese medicine. They contain the perfect amalgam of heart and mind and use both in treating their patients. It is clear after talking with their patients that not only do they offer sincerity and compassion in their practice, but they also get results – and often when other avenues have proved unsuccessful. They are a group that is dedicated to education, both personally and globally. I am grateful for this and their willingness to share their time and experience with me as a student. I hope that other students after me can take away what I was able to and can benefit from being exposed to such a beautiful healing practice.

Thank you again for talking with me on Friday. You were very kind and generous to offer your time and support, and I appreciate your being in my network of super women! I hope to see you some time in June after the surgery.

Kind regards,

It was such a pleasure seeing you today…and my daughter adored you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And as I sit here on my computer I continue to feel my gratitude…because for the last 8 months I would sit here and be overwhelmed with coughing from the particulates from the new attic and unfinished “secret” room attached to our office…..THANK YOU!!! So, do you have a super nutritive recipe for beef broth?????? Or how about super delicious and super nutritive (and please don’t tell me to add eyes of newt, or liver or tongue or anything like that…that just ain’t ever gonna happen no matter how nutritive)... Thanks so much and have a blessed weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In gratitude,

It seemed miraculous. After my very first acupuncture session I experienced a quantum leap of improvement both in reduced pain and increased mobility in my “bad” shoulder. Progress has continued with longer intervals between treatments. Whenever I mentioned another kind of ache the OHS practitioner took care of it. Her concern with my whole person and her helpful suggestions have given me more energy and better overall health. I feel very fortunate to have lucked into this Oriental approach to health care. P.S. I am over eighty!

Here’s my story. Six months ago, I was diagnosed with a very early stage breast cancer (ductal carcinoma in situ), for which it was recommended I have a lumpectomy and a six week course of radiation. After the first surgery, I had to have a re-incision, to make the margin around the tissue that was removed and the rest of the breast tissue wider. At the same time, I was bitten by a tick and contracted Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. After the acute stage of this painful infection abated, I began the radiation treatments on my breast. I truly do not know how I would have made it through both surgeries, the radiation and recovered from the tick-borne disease with out the benefit of acupuncture and other advice from OHS. I had a remarkably rapid recovery from all of these conditions. Thanks to the acupuncture treatments, nutrition advice and a nutritional supplement recommended by a practitioner @ OHS, I experienced less fatigue that many other breast cancer patients. And compared to the other patients I met in the radiation waiting room, I also experienced much milder side effects from the radiation. In fact, my skin never burned, I had no lymph edema and was able to carry on almost normally throughout the six week radiation treatment period. In addition, my recovery from the RMSP was remarkably rapid. I’ve read and been told by others who had this illness or knew someone who had it, that recovery can take years. I’m pretty much back to my normal functioning and energy levels after six months. Acupuncture and electronic stimulation have also aided in the process of weaning my body off of the powerful narcotic pain medicines that were necessary in the first few months for both recovery from the breast surgery and the RMSF. I am absolutely convinced by my own experiences, that acupuncture and the knowledge of the practitioner helped my body both meet and recover from some very serious challenges much more rapidly than would otherwise have been possible. I am grateful to OHS for the knowledge and assistance that have helped me return to an active and productive life style.

N. S. O’D.

Oriental medicine has helped me through two different series of chemotherapy treatments (the most recent for 9 months, 24 treatments) and four surgeries for ovarian and breast cancer since 2002. I was skeptical at first, but now I am a believer in these practices that have evolved over millennia. There is no doubt in my mind that acupuncture and Chinese herbs have practically negated the adverse side effects of chemo for me. I have never once vomited, the fatigue has been manageable, and my doctors are amazed that my blood counts remained nearly normal. Chemotherapy admittedly is not a walk in the park, but Oriental medicine as a complimentary approach to Western medicine has allowed me to stay active and live my life during my treatments. The practitioners at OHS are competent, caring, and compassionate professionals. I am deeply grateful for their experience and expertise.

Happy New Year! I hope this card finds you well. I’ve meaning to mail this check for weeks now. I am sorry it’s so tardy. Our little boy is miraculously still in my belly. We’ve named him Abel for his strength and endurance. I hope you’re doing well and please know how much I appreciate all of your love and support throughout this pregnancy.

Love,

I was diagnosed with lung cancer November 2003 and began chemotherapy in February 2003. During treatment, at the urging of my daughter who had greatly benefited from acupuncture, I made an appointment @OHS. He was very thorough in learning about me - my symptoms, my strengths and weaknesses, my history. My practitioner was extremely knowledgeable about whole body healing and the importance of the immune system. I truly believe that acupuncture played a key role in my immune system staying strong through 4 months of chemotherapy. I continue to periodically go for acupuncture and I continue to do well as a cancer survivor.

Thank you, thank you Oriental Health Solutions!

When I was diagnosed with my cancer, I was distraught. I was petrified of the upcoming chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. I knew nothing about acupuncture but went to OHS at the suggestion of a friend. My husband stayed with me after she put the needles in and says my face relaxed for the first time since the diagnosis and then my body relaxed. He says my spirits improved from that moment forward. After my 4th week of radiation therapy and the 2nd week of in-patient chemotherapy, I was so nauseous that I could keep nothing down. The meds my doctors gave me did little to improve my nausea and I was becoming weaker and battling dehydration. I was hospitalized an extra time just to deal with the nausea and dehydration. My practitioner changed all this by putting needles in my wrists. The nausea disappeared immediately. We worked out a way to keep tiny needles in place and I began to regain my strength.

I was originally diagnosed with breast cancer in December of 2003. After surgery, I received the traditional treatment - chemotherapy and radiation. Eleven months after completing that treatment the cancer was back. Remembering the unpleasant side effects of the earlier chemo (low red and white blood counts, lack of energy, nausea and digestive problems), I decided to pursue Oriental medicine as a complementary treatment. This was done with the complete support of my oncologist. We focused the treatment (acupuncture, herbs, diet, etc.) on improving my general health during chemotherapy and countering the negative side effects. We paid special attention to my immune system and were able to keep my white blood counts high enough that I did not get sick or have to skip any chemo treatments. My overall energy and well being have been amazing. I would highly recommend the use of Oriental medicine as a complement to traditional medical treatment.

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate all of your assistance. Your kind manner and open ears really helped me to get my body in balance and accomplish my goals. I am now 13 weeks pregnant and feeling great. I had some problems with bleeding but after my most recent ultrasound my baby is fine. Thanks again for everything and I wish the best for you and all of your patients. I’m sure I’ll see you in the future.

God Bless,

I hope all is well with you. I think about you often and I am so thankful for everything you did for my husband and I. Being a mother is so much more than I ever imagined. Our daughter is such a blessing. We are so fortunate to have her in our lives. She is doing very well. Growing, playing, laughing and making every moment so precious. She is growing so fast and looks like a little girl. My husband mentioned he stopped by to see you a few months ago when I was interviewing for a new job. I am so glad you were able to see our cutie. I did get the job and my work schedule is much more conducive to having a family than public accounting. Since I switched jobs, I have to switch doctors. I am so upset about having to leave my original doctor that referred me to you. They were absolutely wonderful throughout my whole pregnancy. Do you have a recommendation for a new OB/GYN that you work with that accepts my insurance? I know not all doctors believe in alternative medicine and I want to make sure my new doctor does because I am confident that what you did for us resulted in our beautiful daughter.

Thank you,

I just loooove getting treatments. Not only do they help my arthritis but they are sooo relaxing. I hardly notice the needles going in and then, right after the needles go in, I feel this total relaxation coming over me that feels so nourishing, I can hardly describe it. I feel like I am in a trance state.”

A wonderful feeling!,

I just wanted to thank you for your time and attention today. I feel as though I have made a very positive step toward giving my body the attention it has been demanding. Thank you for your concern and your care; I know I am in good hands.

I’ll see you soon, regards,

Greetings from NY! Thought I would drop you a note just to let you know that I am doing well. Thank you so much for treating me. You changed my life! Anyway, I hope you’re well.

Love,
