“I went on a cruise for several days. When I got back, I had motion sickness for a week. I went into PIHMA’s clinic for my first acupuncture treatment. I was well and back to normal within four hours. I was so amazed I decided to get treated for chronic back pain that I’ve experienced since I was 13 years old. I have experienced complete elimination of that pain through 3-5 acupuncture treatments. Now I simply need maintenance of the discomfort ever few months. I am so grateful for acupuncture and hope many others will have the opportunity to be relieved of their discomfort and pain, etc.”

“I have chronic asthma and cannot afford the typical inhalers that help manage asthma. I received acupuncture treatments regularly and because it’s affordable, my asthma is under control and I am able to live daily life without expensive steroidal inhalers. I have been able to go to work without a lot of absence due to my asthma. My attendance at work is up and so is my attendance at school.”

“This is a story about my mom. At 83 years old she had chronic severe hip pains. The pain prevented her from sleeping; her quality of life was severely compromised. She tried family doctor, orthopedic doctors, psychiatrist, physical therapy, osteopathy and nothing helped. Finally, she had acupuncture, improvement started within 3-4 visits, 8-10 visits and the pain was completely gone. She could sleep great. She now has treatments every 6-10 weeks and remains pain free.”

“My mother was diagnosed with stage IV cancer about 6 years ago. She was in extreme pain and had to be on a morphine drip. The bad part of morphine is, that not only does it destroy the liver, in can almost put you in a comatose state. Acupuncture helped my mother! It gave her energy and did not have the side affects of morphine. ”

“When living in Las Vegas, I was referred to an acupuncturist for chronic, unexplained knee pain. Luckily, my insurance covered the treatment otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to afford it out of pocket. In 10 treatments, my knee pain was completely gone and has not returned since!”
