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.

My IBS triggered diarrhea every day, all day long, but especially in the mornings.  It would be triggered by the foods I ate, stress at work, or nothing at all.  I was getting to the point where I was going to give up my job and try to find a job where I could work out of the house.  As a last resort I went to Raleigh Acupuncture.  I started seeing changes right away, less attacks in the morning, less triggers during the day.  Over the duration of my treatments it seemed like my intestines were getting stronger and less sensitive.  After about a month of treatment I was just having problems in the morning, going about three times.  After about another month I was having normal bowel movements just once in the morning.  As far as I can tell, my IBS is completely healed.

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.
