Success Stories
I really appreciate both of your e-mails and you taking the time to provide me with this information. As a follow up to our last session: My symptoms have been 40 - 50% improved since seeing you. I went to see the physician you referred me to. She is absolutely WONDERFUL! By far the best MD I’ve ever encountered. She doesn’t believe I even have my suspected problem, but does think I have a low grade infection (as you concluded), which includes Candida. She recommended supplements which I have begun to take.
Thanks for everything. I’ll see you in a couple of weeks.
Thank you again for treating my irritable bowel syndrome. I cannot begin to tell you the impact our dietary changes alone have had on our lives. And since my acupuncture treatment Tuesday, my stomach is feeling so much better. Thank you!
Take good care.
N.T., Raleigh, NCGreetings from a former patient: You may recall that I came to see you for multiple (5) miscarriages and you successfully helped me get pregnant with twins, then carry them to term. My family moved out of state shortly after the twins were born.
We were SHOCKED about a year later to find ourselves pregnant with our fourth child—even more surprised that the pregnancy worked. You broke the miscarriage pattern, indeed! I still can’t believe I went from unexplained infertility to mom of four.
I hope you’re doing well, and I continue to have very fond memories of you and your work helping to create our wonderful family.
Best,
A.F., Portland, MEIt was so nice to meet you. Everything I heard about you was true and more. I’m looking forward to seeing you again. I feel a renewed energy I have never felt before. Thank you soooooo much. Thanks for the articles. I’m enjoying them a whole lot.
Till next time,
Hope you are well. I may be leaving for MI tomorrow, so I thought I would give you an update today. My daughter has been taking the herbs since last Wednesday, and I can tell she is feeling better. Her face has not had any new eruptions but we are in the follicular phase of her cycle, the bumps under the skin are still there but the skin surface is much less oily. Is that from the herbs? The probiotics are being taken too. Thank you for all that you do, and for all of the health you are bringing to my family.
F. A., Chapel Hill, NCI want to thank you for being real with me and encouraging me to get another opinion, one connected with one of the teaching hospitals. That doctor guided me further. You were the most helpful voice to me. It helped make a better decision.
J.J., Durham, NCI wanted to let you know that I got good news at my ultrasound Thursday - my uterine lining was 8.7mm (on cycle day 14), which is within the normal limits (they said anything over 8 is ok). I ovulated 2 days later, so it probably got even a little thicker by then. I’ll continue doing what I can to improve it further, but it’s still a big relief! I’m planning to try letrazole and an IUI next cycle, unless I “get lucky” this month of course!.
B.T., Apex, NCAs you could tell, I walked in yesterday in a fair bit of pain and rather discouraged that nothing could be done to make me feel better. Since I’ve never actually been in acute “pain” when I saw you previously, I never got to witness such a profound feeling of healing that happened immediately. I think that was the most profound transformation I have ever felt. Who knows, maybe all the things I have learned in the last few years have helped me to be more open to the amazing possibilities for healing that exist with your work. Also, this experience has helped give me more perspective and gratefulness for what is, is to just be living your life without chronic pain and I am hopeful I’ll soon be back on that path. I walked out of your office with a smile on my face and hope that there is a way to unlock this pain. As I mentioned, I felt like you were Emiril Lagasse in reverse in that you took it “down a notch”—really several notches….rather than up.
So far I had seen the ER doctor, my “official” physician who I rarely ever see, and my chiropractor, and you were the only person who actually examined my whole body and probed to find out where the weaknesses were. I had kind of forgotten about my bruised right side but I see that the reaction you got there really uncovered something important in this healing process. I can tell this area is still very fragile but I have not had that severe tightening feeling in my neck or head since I left your office. I am faithfully taking my trauma pills etc and will try to take it easy over the next few days and hope this holds. I look forward to my treatment next week! I realize I might still have some further work to do in this recovery but I just wanted to thank you for a real turning point yesterday and to let you know that I am so glad that I know you and that you are in the world doing this healing work. You are amazing!!! Please feel free to share any of this for your testimonials ect…., you guys are really good. And I wanted to tell Ken that his comment about the Christmas Kraut being like a symphony in his mouth really warmed my spirit. I shared this with my friend who helped me make the kraut and coming from Ken that is very high praise! It is wonderful to share food with people you know will appreciate it.
All best wishes for the holiday season!
D. F., Chapel Hill, NCAs you predicted I am feeling significantly better. My lungs feel completely clear. The wheezing is gone. I am able to take deep breaths without effort. My coughing spells have been reduced to approximately one cough per six-eight hours. And my nasal discharge is much clearer, especially later in the day. I still feel congested in the mornings, but this feeling largely disappears after a couple of hours.
Thank you again for the very effective treatments. As usual, they worked beautifully and thoroughly.
R.K., Morrisville, NCi feel SO much better. my headache is gone, my energy is back, the aches are gone. there is always so much to be grateful for, and this thanksgiving i will give thanks for you.
peace and blessings,
l.b., Apex, NCThanks again for you help, I consider you a miracle health care worker as well as a truly wonderful person.
F.G., Chapel NCWe hope all is well with you and your family. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us to help us have our precious miracle baby. Have a Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year!
Sincerely,
J. & C. C. and baby, Durham, NCI wanted to let you know that the pain in my neck and shoulders has been relieved to the point that it appears to be nonexistent now. So thank you! I have not noticed any discomfort in my left knee so the acupuncture and the oil treatment have effect. I am glad to see OHS has added another skilled professional to their staff. See ya in a couple of weeks.
R.T., Raleigh, NCi did the steam pot last night and it was amazing how much was “in there.” there’s still more i believe. and this morning, my liver area is much quieter. i believe you are a genius.
i’ll keep you posted.
Thank you so much for a fantastic session yesterday. I already can feel the effects of the work you did - and that, in addition to the pulsatilla remedy you prescribed, seemed to have a very positive impact on my mood and productivity today.
I can’t tell you how pleased I am to be working with you. You are a gem.
Love,
N. P., Durham, NCHow are you doing? I hope well. I want to update you, as you requested, on my response to the treatment. Basically, I have been singing your praises :-) The pain in my shoulders, including the more severe pain in the left one, improved a lot or was absent for the first week. The pain in the left shoulder has crept back in, but is responsive to stretching and relaxing it. The pain and tingling/odd sensations still radiate down my left arm, though. The right side feels fine. I’ve been off the antihistamine since the Tuesday after our appointment and started the herbs on Saturday. The rash had started to come back, but it’s very minimal now. I have some on my elbows, but that’s all I can see/feel. When I worked out in the yard last Saturday from about 7-11AM, I developed a little bit of rash near my knees, but it went away after about 24 hours. In the past 1-2 years, I would have had the rash on my arms, shoulders and legs after getting that hot and sweaty, so it’s definitely an improvement. Okay, I hope that’s what you were looking for :-) I’ll see you at 1 PM on Monday!
Take care,
M. Z., Chapel Hill, NChope everything is well with you. I can’t tell you how impressed I was after my first appointment. It was a wonderful experience for me. I wanted to be sure to send you an email to let you know how I’m doing. I’m happy to report that I’m feeling really great. I’m not symptom-free but I’m greatly improved. Some days are better than others but overall there’s been improvement. I’m still having some pain but the other symptoms are pretty mild. The supplements are going over really well. I haven’t had a bad reaction to them and they seem to make my eating much less painful.
Thanks so much for all of your help. I’m looking forward to my next visit!
H.C. Durham, NCI want you to know that by keeping me healthy you’re doing a great service to people you will never know. My work is so profound and when I am feeling well enough to do it you’re making the biggest difference.
Thank you for doing the work you do!
F.C., Creedmoor, NCJust an update-
As odd as this may sound (?): sitting in a meeting room last Thursday (actually, a waiting room outside the magistrate’s courtrooms of the Durham County Judicial Building), amidst the complicated business of trying to assist a poor person facing a serious threat of loss of their housing, I felt my physical distress, which had plagued me minute to minute for the past 10 day period, suddenly lift, like a wet raincoat that I was taking off. All of sudden my jaw unclenched, my head stopped pounding, my heartbeat slowed, my spine relaxed, etc.
Remarkable! Thanks again for your role in that healing process.
Anyway, I am grateful that you have the fortitude and insight, in my experience, to encounter the healing opportunities of your patients like me at all levels at which they exist. That’s a gift! Right on! Have a good week, see ya in about 4 weeks
Your patient,
D. C., Durham, NCI wanted to let you know that we went for the level 2 ultrasound last Wed, when I was 18 weeks and one day by my LMP. The doctor said everything looks great and baby is measuring right on target! The ultrasound was amazing to watch; I can’t believe everything they can see on there, especially the four chambers of the heart. So I am feeling relieved that all looks good, and we decided to forgo an amnio based on that information. And we chose not to find out the baby’s sex, tempting as it was to ask! We’ll have to wait till Sept. 30 (or thereabouts; my due date) to find out that information.
Hope things are going well with you.
E. C., Chapel Hill, NCGood Morning! Hope you had a good weekend. I wanted to let you know that I am still feeling lots of relief from my back/hip. I have probably smiled more this weekend, slept better, and just overall been happier this weekend than I have since August of last year. I am so grateful to you. I do still have some discomfort in that area and some in the rib area but what you did on Thursday has definitely given me some relief and I look forward to my appointment this Thursday.
Thank you again and I hope you have a great day!
K.K., RTP, NCHello all,
I am pleased to announce for the first time in a year, I danced the whole night last night!!!!!!!!!! I have been doing acupuncture with a practitioner at Oriental Health Solutions and I fully attribute my ability to dance again to the wonderful work he has done to help me. Thank you so much! We have to keep this going! I can’t tell you how happy I am!
I do know one thing…..acupuncture works
Thank you all!
Love ya,
Here are some photos of our daughter. She was born at 7:18 pm after a lightening-fast labor (too fast for the epidural!), weighs 7 pounds 1 oz, and measures 20 inches long. So far she enjoys sucking, sleeping, and the attention of visitors. We are all doing just fine, if a little shell-shocked. The labor was so fast that we forgot the camera, but here are a few photos from the phone!
Again, it was you to the rescue!! Is there anything you can’t do?
A.T., Chapel Hill, NCI’m grateful to you for the flu pack and your advice.
I do believe that I “sweated it out” on Monday by superheating my bedroom and bundling up. It was uncomfortable, but apparently effective.
I’m feeling fine today.
Many thanks,
A.F., Durham, NCThanks for getting back to me on that so quickly. My mom wanted to make sure that I passed along the good news - the results came back on my new tests for everything that you wanted me to get and everything was completely normal!!! What a relief, especially for my worrisome mom!
Thanks for everything…we love you!
A.C., Chapel Hill, NC
