For acute and chronic sprains, acupuncture is known to reduce significant amount of pain and inflammation after at least twice as fast and to resolve the condition. A stretching or tearing of ligaments, the fibrous bands that bind bones together at a joint, is referred to as a sprain. Typically, the surrounding blood vessels are also injured, resulting in bruising. Although ligaments are very strong, almost any fall or misstep that twists a joint into an unnatural position can result in a sprain; in fact, a sprained ankle is the most common of all sports injuries. The knees are also vulnerable to severe sprains. |

came in, my conditions were mostly IBS symptoms and some heel pain. Both symptoms were pretty severe. After the first few treatments of acupuncture, I felt better. As time went on I started to notice a change in my body not only with the symptoms that I had been suffering from but just (also) in my overall health. I started to feel more relaxed and my sleep became more restful. Today my heel pain has diminished and my IBS is calmer. Along with the acupuncture Dr. Lee gave me Chinese herbs and some advice on what types of foods my body may not be able to handle. Both have really helped me in my progress to feeling better and also all better mental and physical health. Robin F. |
I had a constant burning sensation in the bladder, especially during urination. It began about two years ago and has been very uncomfortable since then. I was waking up 10 to 12 times a night to urinate. During the day, the pain was often unbearable. In my first acupuncture, I felt the pain going away while lying down on the table. My progress of improvement has been truly amazing. I have been coming about one month and half now. The burning pain is very minimal and I only get up about 3-4 times a night. I was very surprised that my lower back and knee pain were also getting better. Often, I forget to use a cane and people at meetings are surprised that I am walking around without a cane. I was taking allergy pills every day. Now my nose is completely open even without medication. This is truly amazing and wonderful that I can live comfortably. Coming here made a difference of night and day. |
I sprained my ankle quite badly and acupuncture was recommended to me. At first, I did not take the advice but after a week of consistent pain and limping and no significant improvement, I called David Lee. We me shortly after and to my amazement I walked out of his office without a limp after just one visit. Not only that, but he also began treating my allergies. I have had difficulty with allergies for at least 20 years. I often would need to breathe out of my mouth because I was unable to get enough air through my nose. My nasal passages would be swollen and congested. During times of wind I would get severe sinus headaches. With several visits over the last week and a half, I’m ready to get back to my exercise routine and breathe more freely than I can ever remember. I have recommended Dr. Lee to many people already and will continue to see him myself as well. If I had any complaint at all, it would be that I did not come to see him sooner. He is a blessing and I am grateful. |
