Dear Dr. & Mrs. Christopher;
I wish to take this time and express my appreciation to you and your staff for the treatment and care I have received over the past Six (6) months. The sincere care and individual attention I have received. and continue to receive, have not been matched by another treatment I have been involved with over the past two years. The success of your treatment and the care in which you serve others in unspeakable.

In August of 2003, I went on Disability from the Highway Patrol with a severe neurological disorder in the right area of the brain. I have been treated by several neurologists from Ohio State University, tested at the Cleveland Clinic. went to the Michigan Head Pain and Neurological Center in Ann Arbor, Michigan. and went through countless medical treatments with out any success. In March of 2005, I applied for disability retirement with the Ohio State Patrol since there have been no successful treatment over the past year and a half. In March of this year, I was directed to your office for a, "last attempt" treatment before my retirement took affect. I started treatment with you on April 20, 2005. and I returned to full duty on June 11 2005. Without your successful treatment and care. I would have lost a career that I truly love and have been with over Twenty-Four (24) years. I am a true believer in your acupuncture treatment and your sincere care of people.
I am very impressed with you and your staff and I want to express my appreciation to you all.

If anyone has any doubt with acupuncture treatment and your methods of treatment. please have them contact me and I will gladly explain the life and career you have given back to me with your concern and treatment. Please express my gratitude to your staff for their efforts and thank you both again for your help and concern. May God Bless You All.

Respectfully.

Sergeant Paul R. Weber Assistant Piqua Post Commander



My name is Boomer. I am a DJ at New Rock 103-9 The X.
I have also been a patient at Medical Acupuncture Associates since July of 2005. I have suffered terrible chronic pain in my chest for the past 10 years due to a genetic form of emphysema and subsequent (multiple) surgeries. The pain had gotten nothing but worse, mounting over the past 5 years to a point where I had seen dozens of specialists and had multiple minor procedures to try to quell the pain. It got to the point where I was on Morphine patches and STILL experiencing pain to the point where some days it hurt my chest simply to wear a shirt. On those days I could barely even function. The pain had taken over every aspect of my being.

From the moment I came in to see Chuck and Stacy I was encouraged that they could help my situation. They came up with treatments that they hoped would help me ease not only my pain but to help me off of the Morphine patches. We began treatments immediately, and my life soon began to change.

To be totally honest, there is much more to what I have gotten from Stacy and Chuck than just the recession of my pain. Physically, mentally, and emotionally they have made my life a better place. The best hour and a half of my week is when I am in for my treatment. I am more relaxed on the table during treatment than at any other point in my week. Over the course of my treatments my pain has steadily decreased, and I am no longer on the Morphine patches.

I owe a lot to Stacy and Chuck. Not only are they great at what they do but they are even better people. They care about their patients in ways that very few people do any more. I recommend them and their practice to all people that I meet who are having issues that "traditional" doctors haven't been helpful. I absolutely swear by them and their practice. And I hope that they will be able to help you just as much as they have (and continue to) help me.



Acupuncture really works for hot flashes
For a year I have been getting acupuncture treatments for an unrelated medical condition. A byproduct of the treatment has been the complete abatement of hot flashes and sleep interruption. Due to travel, I didn't receive an acupuncture treatment for two months .. Within a month, the hot flashes and disturbed sleep returned, gradually increasing in intensity and frequency. When I returned from the trip, I could hardly wait to get an acupuncture treatment so that these symptoms would go away.

Acupuncture and Depression
For two years I battled severe clinical depression. I had frequent sessions with a psychologist, endured a failed attempt at medication (negative reaction), and maintained constant vigilance over a rigid diet, exercise, and life style routine. I had lost hope of recovering any joy in living and hoped only to avoid another plunge into the darkness. As an absolute last resort, the psychologist suggested and I tried acupuncture treatments. After five treatments, administered over a month-long period, my life improved dramatically. Now I get monthly treatments to ensure that I never again have to battle the demon depression. It's hard to believe that there is a prescription free method to treat depression, but there is. I'm living proof of that. Everyday I recognize and am thankful for the quality of life that acupuncture has given me. It is no exaggeration to say that acupuncture "saved my life" Thanks to all at Medical Acupuncture!
