I have had many falls and lifting accidents throughout my adult life. I love animals and worked with veterinarians and in the pet grooming industry for over 30 years with a lot of lifting of heavy animals. Over time this resulted in multiple injuries to my low back, hips and knees along with constant severe pain. I endured the unrelenting pain for too many years while seeing 5 orthopedic doctors and taking a lot of narcotic pain killers. I became depressed and eventually had to go on permanent medical disability and leave my beloved career behind. The pain just seemed to go from bad to worse and I could no longer lie down to sleep in bed. My recliner chair became my best friend.
That’s when I met David, my acupuncturist. He’s been treating me for a little over a year now and although the pain is not entirely gone, I have had some days without any pain for the first time in years. In addition, I am able to sleep in bed once again. I can’t tell you what that alone has done to lift my spirits. David’s kindness and skillfulness have been real life changers for me. He gave me hope when I was hopeless and I am so grateful for that. If you are in pain and thinking about acupuncture, I can’t think of a better person to help you recover your health. Thank you, David
