Digestive

I have been a long time client and friend of Jinmei and Mark. I came to learn of their practice from a friend of mine who had remarkably lost a great deal of weight, when I asked how he achieved this accomplishment he pointed me to their practice. This goes back to 2008; my initial success with their program for weight loss was very quick and lasting. Jinmei always made a point to see how I was doing not only in the area of weight loss which initially brought me in but also she always was treating the total me asking about any concerns that she could help me with. I strongly recommend their practice; you will not find more results oriented, concerned or caring acupuncture practitioners.

I came down with an unbelievable case of diarrhea that lasted more than four weeks.  I was getting severely dehydrated and was exhausted.  My doctor said there was nothing wrong with me, that it was probably due to stress.  The only thing stressing me out was the diarrhea!  I was really starting to get scared, thinking I had contracted some terrible disease.  I went to acupuncture and they immediately said there was a problem with my stomach and intestines, but that it wasn’t dangerous and it was treatable.  They treated me with acupuncture and a heat herb that warmed up my stomach.  I felt better immediately, and within a few weeks the diarrhea was completely gone.  I am very grateful to Raleigh Acupuncture for knowing what was wrong with me and treating my condition so quickly.

I was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease two years ago. I had fairly severe low abdominal pain and swelling, weight loss and really low energy. My doctor wanted to put me on steroids but I wanted to avoid that for as long as possible. I read that acupuncture could treat Crohn’s so I booked an appointment at Raleigh Acupuncture. Sure enough, the treatments eased my pain, resolved the swelling, and increased my energy. It’s been almost two years and I have yet to need steroids. Initially I got acupuncture twice a week, but after the first two months I have been on monthly maintenance treatments, and that seems to be holding me. I highly recommend Raleigh Acupuncture for Crohn’s treatment. They have made a huge difference in my life.
