NEUROLOGICAL

"I approached acupuncture with apprehension and skepticism. Four years ago, I was diagnosed with a rare neurologic condition termed Guillian Barre Syndrome (more specifically Chronic Demyelinating Polyneuropathy). More recently, I was hospitalized for a neurologic disorder, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. Both conditions are chronic.
Though I have remained positive, lingering symptoms of pain and neuropathy have significantly affected my lifestyle.

I will never forget Helen Law's initial words to me: "Western medicine has treated you as it sees fit, and now it is time for an Eastern approach." Both Helen and Jennifer have offered therapeutic intervention which has alleviated the intensity of my pain. Their expertise is impressive. Although I still have discomfort - exacerbated by certain activity, exertion or extreme temperature, the Chinese Acupuncture Center has promoted healing within me. With each treatment, I feel stronger and for this, I am very appreciative."

"When I came to your office in January 2006, it was with very little hope you could help me. I had come down with a serious case of Bells' Palsy in November of 2002 and had gone for acupuncture a few months later. Although it helped to a degree, my face was still paralyzed. I thought I would have to live with this damage for the rest of my life. In December of 2005, one of my doctors recommended I make an appointment with you to see if you could do anything for me. I did and it was the best decision I ever made.

From the beginning you told me you couldn't guarantee how much could be done to return my face to "normal". Your total honesty from the beginning won me over and I knew if anyone would make the biggest effort to help me it would be you.

Different parts of the right side of my face were very painful but within the first six weeks I noticed the pain was slowly going away and that some of my muscles were starting to move a little. After a couple of months, even my friends started to notice a difference in my face and would comment on it – even the ones who didn't know I was going for acupuncture.

It has been eight months and you haven't let me down. Although I know my face will never look exactly like it did before November of 2002, I can't believe what you have done. People who are just meeting me, or the ones I haven't seen in a very long time, don't even know – or remember – there was a problem.

Besides being amazing at what you do, you are probably one of the most honest and caring person I know. Not only have you helped me with your talents but have been an amazing emotional support.

I want to thank you for everything you have done for me."
