Celebrities get Acupuncture

Sciatica

Last year, I had a severe sciatica problem which effectively crippled me. My local doctor diagnosed sciatica and suggested exercises and panadols for the extreme pain. The panadols didn’t work, and the exercises were no good because of the pain.

Catch 22

So in desperation and after a colleague recommended it, I went to an acupuncturist who cured me totally after 4 sessions. I gained an improvement within 2 hours of each session, and I have not had a relapse in 12 months (so it was not psychosomatic).

I know that it was the acupuncture which did the job as the first noticeable improvement occurred 2 hours after the first session (why 2 hours after?), and the same pattern was repeated after the next 3 sessions – namely, the effect being noticed not during the acupuncture, but 2 hours later.

I have never had acupuncture before, nor have I ever had any `alternative’ medical treatments before this episode. I am 53.

Back Pain

This is a testimonial about acupuncture. Back in March of 2007 I had a nasty fall resulting in major back pain. I went to the doctor only to receive pain medication. 6 wks later, still having pain went back to the doctor in which he told me I needed physical therapy. Physical Therapy didn’t work, here it is October and still in pain. I found the American Institute of Alternative Medicine in Columbus, Ohio and made an appointment. By this time I was still skeptic about the acupuncture but was willing to try anything to get my back under control. I went to my appointment today not knowing what to expect. But let me tell you first hand that when the visit was over, I got up and felt like a new person. Not the first bit of pain! It was amazing. I could not be happier. I have made another appointment to work on some other issues I have with my body! Also just to let everyone out there know, the procedure is painless,
