Testimonial:  Sports Injuries

"I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for all of your help. A couple of months ago when I first came to see you, I was both nervous and starting to believe what all of the doctors were telling me—that I was going to have to give up playing hockey, the sport I love (I honestly don't know which is worse). I was skeptical because I didn't understand what acupuncture was all about, nor did I know if it really worked. You put my mind at ease by explaining to me what to expect from the treatments, and everything you told me was true, including the part about the needles being painless. The needles really were not big deal, in fact one time you told me you had used 22 needles, and I had to guess based on what I felt, I would have said you put in three!

It was a long time between my injury and my coming to see you…I only wish I had come sooner! A friend had mentioned acupuncture to me one time in passing. Then my girlfriend mentioned that one of her co-workers had seen you for a similar injury and was now back to 100%. Finally Wendel Clark, formerly of the Toronto Maple Leafs, now of the Detroit Red Wings, said in an interview that he hated playing in a certain city because there were no good acupuncturists in it! I decided to give it a try, after all it kept a 38-year old professional hockey player on the ice, maybe it could get me back between the pipes…what did I have to lose?

I am happy to say that last Thursday, I put on my goalie pads for the first time in over six months and never felt better. Thanks to your treatments and regiment of herbal medicine, I am back on the path to my dream of representing Austria in an ice hockey world cup.

I have recommended your office to many of my friends, coworkers, and fellow hockey players. I tell them all it might not work for your particular type of injury, but you never know…I didn't think it would work for me either. It did."
