My medical condition involved constant allergy attacks,
lower leg/ankle/foot edema weight gain, depression, and
tiredness for about 3 years. My treatments with acupuncture
began in the summer of 2001. The initial treatments were
consistent from 1 to 2 visits per week.
Relief of symptoms were noticeable within first few visits. My
allergy attacks were my primary focus. I was getting the
attacks at one point once a month and every other month. The
sinus infection would develop into a cold.
The acupuncture treatments corrected this problem right away.
After about 6 months, the symptoms started again but with
less severity. During my next set of treatments, I focused on
allergies and weight gain.
With the acupuncture treatments and herbs, I was able to stop
the swelling/weight gain and control my allergy attacks. I was
symptom free for about a year and a half, when I stopped my
treatments a second time. Recently, my allergies have started
again, but with even less severity. With the treatments, they
will be back under control.

My objective is for experiencing acupuncture treatments was to
improve my overall health and achieve better balance in aiding
my sleeping patterns.
Acupuncture treatments have enabled me to feel better in
regard to allergies/asthma and preventing subsequent
colds. In previous years, I normally would have allergies that
turn to long- standing colds during late October-November due
to the Santa Ana winds condition.
Acupuncture treatments has also enabled me to improve my
sleep by 33% to 40% on most nights. I would definitely
recommend acupuncture treatments to others who may need
help in improving their overall health condition.
P.S. sleeping consistently has been difficult over the latest 5-
10 years. Previously, I would chew a melatonin tablet to fall
back to sleep. However, acupuncture has helped my overall
sleeping without having to resort to any types of medication.

I came to Dr. Lee’s office after I stopped taking medication for
anxiety. I had been on the medication for over a year and did
not want to continue taking it for the rest of my life. With the
supervision of my regular doctor therapist, I stopped and they
recommended I try alternative therapies so I did not fall back
into my anxious state. The first few weeks off medication were
little hard, but as soon as I started acupuncture I began to feel
better.
Now after only several weeks coming to see Dr. Lee I feel
better than I have in a long time, even better than when I was
taking medication. I have noticed that even things that I did not
specifically notice or complain about have gone away.
I definitely have a sense of total well being after having gone
through a few treatments.

I have been receiving acupuncture treatments and taking the
herbal teas for two months. When I started the treatments it
was for Bell's Palsy. But like the doctor says, he treats the
whole body. When I started treatment my entire body ached, it
was moans and groans to walk and go up and down stairs. I
couldn't do very much with my right arm and hand as it was
very painful more and more I would use my left arm and hand.
Here it is two months later my Bell's Palsy is almost gone and
I can walk and climb stairs and use my right arm and hand
with very little pain, that I'm sure pretty soon I will have no pain
like before.

I'm 35 years old and work as a high production graphic
designer, a job which requires an excessive amount of time on
the computer. About 2 years ago I began to notice that my
right wrist was bothering me. It started with soreness, then
swelling. It got to a point where I couldn't open jars or carry
bags. It was even painful to brush my teeth. Finally my hand
was going numb at night.
I went to two different hand specialists who diagnosed me with
DeQuarvain's Tenosynovitis [Carpal Tunnel], a painful
inflammation of tendons in the wrist. They recommended a
series of physical therapy treatments, cortizone injections, a
splint, and regular icing. I followed their advice, but
unfortunately after 8 months my hand only got worse. My
doctor suggested surgery, so I began to search for alternative
methods of treatment. That is how I came to find David Lee.
David treated me with acupuncture and herbs, and after just a
couple sessions, I noticed a reduction in swelling and pain. I
continued to see David regularly, and in a few months I had
regained 90% mobility in my wrist. Now I am happy to say that
I'm pain free and only visit David occasionally for flair ups due
to overuse. I am so thankful that I was able to find an
alternative to surgery and so happy that I discovered David and
his talent.
I'd like to thank David Lee for helping me through a very painful
year.
Thanks! You're the best!

I am appreciative of the results of only one treatment I received.
Since my personal allergic reactions and side effects to most
medicines I am now continuing acupuncture treatments. The
herbs are a God given result to my health. May this be an
encouragement to you.

I was diagnosed with diabetes type II and high cholesterol in
March, 2004. My glucose level at one point was at 286. After
three types of medications, my glucose level went down to
between 156 and 136.
In October, I started natural plants treatment with great
success. My sugar level has gone down to 136 to 111 [without
medications]. I had lots of tired and very hot feet. My eyes
were tired and watery. I used to urinate up to 3 times a night. I
was very hungry. I had very little sleep and I was in bad mood.
But thanks to God and to the plants that David gave me. Today
all my symptoms have stopped.

I am 59 years old. I [have] been diagnosed with diabetes for
the past 2 months. I [have] been treated by David Lee for the
last month and a half for diabetes by taking herbs. I no longer
take medication for diabetes. I no longer use the restroom as
much at night or drink as much water. In a week I will not be
taking no more herbs.

I came to Dr. Lee to see if anything could be done about my
excessive sweating, particularly in the back of my thighs. My
treatment began the same day after consultation. I
immediately felt a comforting feeling after my first acupuncture
session. Throughout my treatment I have seen a gradual
noticeable improvement. I always feel completely relaxed after
each session. Each day I am amazed at the progress I have
made and am looking forward to an improved state.

I had severe fluttering of my left eyelids. It impeded reading,
which my job requires. Even keeping my eyes opened was
annoying.
On the first day of treatment, the eye quavering relieved
immediately. The eyelid fluttering symptoms used to be 2-3
times a day, lasting for minutes at a time. They reduced to 2-3
times in that first week. After one month of treatment, the
discomfort in the eyelids completely vanished.
Chinese herbs also helped to improve my digestion and to
resolve chronic flatulence.

I have had headaches for at least 15 years. Most days I would
wake up with a headache and would go to sleep at night with
the same pain. I have been treated by David Lee one or two
times per week for the last six weeks, and my headaches are
gone.

I started feeling the pressure around my eyes and around
temples [few months ago]. First, I thought something was
wrong with my eyes. I bought an eye drop. I was taking Tylenol
every 4 hours (for almost solid 2 months!). Someone thought
that I had sinus infection. I was treated with antibiotics at 2
separate times. My headache was still there, some days I felt
it as soon as I woke up.
The first day I experienced acupuncture treatment, I noticed
that I did not take Tylenol all day. (wow!). My headache was
almost gone by the 3rd treatment. I am also taking herb
powder mix given by Dr. Lee. I feel so much better now.

I have had pain in my knee, upper back area and right foot
for at least 6 months and have tried may other treatments
before coming to David Lee’s office. In two weeks I have had
tremendous relief in all areas and can’t believe how good these
areas feel.
[After two months]I am continuing to see improvement in all
areas and even more areas are improving than I anticipated. I
have a better sense of well-being and much more energy and I
am so glad I found David!

I suffer from arthritis. My joints ache in my shoulders, knees,
and hips flare up fairly regularly, and they used to last for long
periods, often not allowing me to swim, participate in Tai Chi,
or even hold my granddaughter.
As I started going to Dr. Lee for treatments, however, the pain
is not as severe and does not come as regularly as it has in
the past. Also, after I receive my treatments, it goes away
much more quickly without having to take strong medications.
Additionally, I complained to my traditional doctors about the
fact that I had to wake up in the middle of the night to use the
restroom. It broke my sleep patterns and just made me tired
the rest of the day. I thought this was something I had to live
with, because I was getting older, but I didn’t.
After several treatments with Dr. Lee, I have stopped having to
wake up in the middle of the night to use the restroom. It’s
amazing.
Female, age 62

For many years I have suffered from persistent pain in my
feet and lower legs, which did not respond to conventional
medical treatment. Also, as I grew older there was an increase
in the problems that often plague men over 55 and which
reduce the quality of life.
On May 17, 2002 I had my first acupuncture treatment with
David Lee. To our suprise and delight the pains in my feet and
legs disappeared immediately, and have not returned. As the
same time there has been a noticeable improvement in the
overall quality of my life.
Altogether remarkable!

My name is Jesus and I like to give testimony about a
treatment for my health. I am 65 years old and for my age I
started to suffer enlargement of my prostate since seven
years ago. On 4/2/02 I felt very bad and went to the hospital to
help pass my urine. The same month 4/12/02 I started
treatment with herbs. I had a catheter on for 7 days at the
hospital before beginning treatment. To this day I have been
treated for 5 weeks and I can tell you my health is better with
his medicine and improved 90%. I write this testimony to thank
very much for his help.

I had suffered from moderate to severe pain and stiffness in
my neck and lower back for some time. Looking for an
alternative to other pain management/control remedies I’ve
utilized before, and at the suggestion of colleagues who had
successfully used acupuncture for similar ailments, I decided
to see what acupuncture could do for me.
I was very pleasantly surprised with the results of my first
treatment as the pain relief was almost immediate. Not only
did each subsequent visit aid in further alleviating the ache in
my neck and back, it promoted a sense of well being and
reduction of stress.
I have been extremely satisfied with the results of these
treatments and give acupuncture a resounding endorsement.

I had hypothyroidism in 1991. By the time I began treatment
in 2000, my 2-3% of my thyroid was working and there were
multiple nodules. Happily, after three months of treatment, I
was given a sound bill of health. I no longer needed any
medications. 5 years later, my thyroid is still working normally.
Susanna P.

One day, I felt extremely tired and the throat began to swell up.
Without fail at each evening, my body shivered from cold and
the throat was very sore.
The hospital check up revealed beginning of a thyroid
problem. I was advised to take aspirin if it became too painful
and since it was a beginning stage, the doctor wanted to wait
until the thyroid problem became severe. My symptoms
continued for another 3 weeks without sign of relief.
As soon as Dr. Lee began treatment with acupuncture and
Chinese herbs, the chills and shivering had significantly
reduced. The sore throat was less. Thyroid inflammation
gradually reduced in size.
Now that I have been treated for about one and half months, I
feel almost normal. I am sure I will continue to get better.

Thank you so very much for your skill and treatment. When I
came to you, I had been suffering migraine headaches for
over five years. Towards the end, I was literally suffering
headaches for up to 20 days in a row, with only 5 days of relief
between bouts.
I had taken "modern" medicine as far as it could go, being told,
"You have migraines, deal with it." I unfortunately turned to
oriental medicine as a "last resort", rather than seeking it as
an alternative treatment. That is the last time I make that
mistake.
It's now 25 days without a migraine, which is an unbelievable
miracle for me. This has been a miracle for me. Not only have
you taken away the headaches, but you also have spent more
time talking to me, listening, and asking questions, than I have
ever experienced.
Forever grateful,

Since I was 12 years old [now age 54], I started with
migraines. Over the years, my headaches worsened. For
the past 11 years I've been getting them 3-4 times a week,
without being able to control it. I've been to several doctors,
they've prescribed different medications and nothing seemed
to help. I also had an MM of my brain, and nothing was
found.
One day my niece told me about you. She said you have
helped her in the past and highly recommended you. I was
first in denial. I thought about it for 2 weeks before having
my first consultation with you. My first week with the herbs
didn't make me feel any different. I still continued with my
headaches. I decided to try one more week. If I didn't feel a
change I was going to stop coming to you.
I am extremely happy to say there has been a whole new
change with my life style. Now I can get up from bed and go
on with my everyday duties. I still get slight headaches but
not to an extreme that I can't get up from bed. You have
helped me a lot. I thought that there was no way to control
my migraines. I thank God and you for all your help and
patience you have for me. I'm going to continue going to
you. I first was in disbelief, now I'm embarrassed to say I
was wrong.

I have been tending bar and serving for 40 years. I have
always had some kind of pain and have used lots of drugs
to deal with it. For the last two years, however, I have had
extreme pain in my neck and right arm. Never in my life
had I considered acupuncture. I was shopping in the
neighborhood and just walked in on David Lee. After telling
him how I had to use Vicodin, Valium and Xanax to just
work, I decided to let him treat me. In one week my whole
life had changed. I no longer depend on drugs or alchohol for
pain or stress. I believe I found a miracle in David.

About 3 yeas ago, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism or
depressed thyroid. My symptoms were lethargy, unusual
coldness (more sweaters in August) and sleeping an
excessive amount. I was placed on Synthroid and that
relieved the symptoms unless I forgot to take the daily
medication. If I forgot to take the medicine, I had immediate
response, such as inability to complete thoughts and
sentences.
I received acupuncture from David Lee. I have been
symptom free for about 4 months. I'm off medication, and I
honestly feel better than ever. My "blood numbers" fall
within the normal range without medicine.

I came to see Dr. Lee because of low thyroid, irritable
bowel & always feeling tired for years. I have been
receiving treatment for 3 months and I see a huge difference
in the way I feel. I have much more energy. I haven’t had
any bouts with irritable bowel problem. I highly recommend
Dr. Lee to anyone with any of the problems that I had.

I had rheumatoid arthritis for 20 years. When it was
severe, especially with work and change in weather, I could
not get up in the morning for 2 hours and went to sleep at
night with severe pain. My hands and were becoming
crooked, and all the joints in my limbs were stiff.
I had acupuncture for two months now. I wake up with very
little pain and I can do my activities throughout the day
without having to worry about how I will wake up tomorrow.

When I first came to see Dr. Lee 2 months ago, I had a lot
of pain & stiffness in my neck and back. I also
experienced migraines frequently. After 2 months of
treatment, my neck and back have improved significantly
and I no longer have intense migraines. Overall I feel much
better than I ever had before and I am more relaxed and
focused during my day. The everyday stress in my life
seems much improved also- I no longer feel anxious. I would
recommend acupuncture to anyone wanting to improve their
overall health & well being. I am very grateful I found Dr. Lee.

I have been coming to acupuncture for over a month now.
When I first 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.

I’ve been in pain for about a year. Initially, my sacro-iliac
joints were “off,” giving me discomfort, which increased a lot
after a while. The discomfort became pain and started
affecting my daily activities. I don’t use medicine, but I was
walking, doing therapies…. It alleviated but the pain started
coming and going and getting stronger each time. My
energy was low, I felt tired, hot flashes were bothering
me and lately the strong pain was constant… no break day
and night.
I started acupuncture, herbs intake, and nutrition changes 2
months ago.
The very next morning of my 1st session, my energy was
back “with interests.” I was able to do things at home that I
had been postponing for a long time and was not even
relating to my session with Dr. Lee at all, until some days
later, when other differences could be noticed. People
started telling me that I was “glowing” and happier. And it
was true. The next weekly sessions brought me a sense of
wellness and happiness that I was not used to anymore.
Now I’ve been having sessions every other week and keep
doing the herbs and the nutrition changes as well, which I
intend to incorporate into my lifestyle! Thank you Dr. Lee for
being such a gift to all of us, doing your alchemy towards
healing the world; one being at a time.

I came to see David Lee 2 months prior due to IBS and
menstrual problems. I was waking up every night with
really bad stomach aches, which were interrupting my
sleep. After a couple of weeks of acupuncture and herbs my
stomach problems improved.
I don’t experience any stomach issues now. The insomnia
has completely disappeared and my menstrual problems
have improved. I think following David Lee’s suggestions on
diet has really helped too. The lessened symptoms have
greatly improved my quality of life. I sleep soundly at night
and have a lot of energy for the gym, work, and family.

I am pregnant for 34 weeks now and not due for delivery
until at least 36 weeks have passed. I had to be careful
during my third trimester because the placenta is located
too low in my uterus. I had lower back pain which started 2
months ago. Since two days before acupuncture I had
constant uterine contractions which the medications
helped a little.
After three acupuncture sessions, I had no more
contractions. My gynecologist says the placenta is placed
firmly and expected to have normal birth. My lower back
pain is much better.

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.

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 had broken my left wrist and right shoulder during an
accident in mid September (5 months ago). Shortly
thereafter I began seeing a physical therapist and my
injuries were slowly improving. I January I had decided that
my injuries were not improving fast enough so I came to see
Dr. Lee.
At that time I still had significant pain in my shoulder
and wrist. I had not slept a full night in months, was
very tired constantly, and had headaches and
allergies. Dr. Lee began giving me acupuncture treatments
once per week and my symptom immediately began to
improve at a much more rapid rate. In fact, after the 1st
treatment, sleep was no longer an issue. Dr. Lee also
advised me on my diet identifying foods to stay away from
and others to eat. I feel this diet has improved my digestion,
energy and concentration. He also began to give me a herb
blend. The combination of acupuncture, diet, and herb
therapy has made a big difference.
Thanks Dr. Lee!

BEFORE:
I came in with symptoms of depression, neck pain, back
pain, and just a general sense of “imbalance” with all areas
in my life; professionally, personally, mentally, and
spiritually.
Prior to my first visit, I had been on anti-depressants on and
off for 8 years, and I have never felt they were completely
effective, rather just put a “bandaid” on my mental well-being.
AFTER:
After a month of acupuncture treatment, my depression has
subsided and my general sense of well-being has
dramatically improved. Further, I completely feel better
(mentally) without the need for anti-depressants! My neck
pain has improved much as well. The “holistic” approach of
acupuncture has affected all other areas of my life, and I feel
more balanced, focused, and calm!

I was fatigued all the time. I was having pregnancy
symptoms every month but I was not pregnant. My right
foot had pain and I was having headache, and just feeling
out of sorts. The first week of treatment I felt a difference.
The treatment has been about two months, and I have no
more pain. I’m not fatigued anymore. I feel the best I have
felt in very long time.

Asthma
The patient says she went to her medical doctor and he told
her that her lungs were functioning properly and that she
was doing better. Patient says she noticed that in the
beginning before acupuncture she used the inhaler 5-6
times in 1 day.
She noticed that each day after acupuncture she was using
the inhaler less and less often. The patient says she no
longer has to use it anymore, thanks to acupuncture. The
patient has been about 1 month without using the inhaler.
The patient says especially now with the weather change to
coldness she used it a lot. Now she no longer has to use it.

I started with Dr. Lee in December 06. I Found out I have
arthritis in my right foot. So I thought I’d try acupuncture. I
went 10 times and although the arthritis will continue, the
pain has lessened and is less frequent.
I found that other symptoms began to diminish as well. My
menopausal symptoms have seemed to really be less
than they were when I came in. Stress has subsided and
sleep is much better. Fatigue was also an issue, which I
found the teas to really give me natural energy. I had
constipation even when taking prune juice, Dr. Lee took
me off prune juice immediately and told me to eat more
green vegetables and drink the teas, and now I am going
daily on my own.
Finally, Dr. Lee has helped me to become more aware of
taking responsibility for my own health, I feel more
motivated to take better care of my health and exercise
more which will definitely help with my high cholesterol and
overall well-being.
Thanks Dr. Lee for your inspiration and jump start into
taking care of my mind and body.

At the age of 11, I started having a cough that would give
me spells of up to 1 hour straight. My parents took me to
the doctors and they would prescribe a cough medicine.
Over the years this cough turned into an asthmatic cough. I
have seen many doctors, specialists, and internal doctors,
and even ended up in the emergency room more times than
I can count. The doctors would prescribe asthma
medications and medication to prevent my attacks but
could never find a medication that would stop my coughing
once I started. When I would end up in the emergency room
I would receive a cool breathing treatment that would stop
my coughing for maybe 1 hour. My coughing could last
from 1 week to 5 months. My doctors could not find a cure.
I met Dr. Lee through a friend. When I met him I was having
my coughing spell. He recommended that I eat 3 pears a
day and boil the peels in hot water and drink it like a tea.
Well, to my surprise, in a couple of days my cough was
gone. I tried my home remedies and none had worked, but
thanks to Dr. Lee’s 3 pears I now sleep 8 hours peacefully,
am able to work, and people don’t walk around me like they
used to. By this I mean once I start coughing it can last up
to 1 hour straight nonstop and people at times thought I had
some kind of disease. Well, thanks to Dr. Lee I now can do
things as everyone else.

When I limped in to Dr. Lee’s office, about one year ago,

Six weeks ago, I came in because of candida, which
included so many symptoms, forgetfulness stomach
pains, anxiety, depression, memory loss, IBS, weight
gain, PMS! After just 1 treatment, my back pain went
away. This is a pain that didn't allow me to even lie on
my back. Now, I sleep all night long on my back. My PMS
is totally gone. I can workout again. I am clear headed. I
have my sense of humor back. I feel happy and
lighthearted. I feel like a teenager again. My memory is
back, however, I feel that when I go back to greasy
foods, it gives me a heartache. I owe a lot to Dr. Lee, as
does my family.

My illness started seven years ago, as a flight attendant.
I worked long hours, different time zones and inadequate
food, nutrition, and sleep patterns. I developed severe
heartburn. I was put on medication, prevacid and
nexium. These medications worked for the heartburn,
but I developed debilitating side effects; persistent
nausea (to the point I had to take a leave of absence
from work).
The nausea continued to progress along with
weight gain, irritable bowel syndrome, and
menstrual irregularities to the point I spent most of my
days flat out on the couch with severe dizziness. I kept
telling my gastrointestinal physician that I must be
allergic to the medication since my life has completely
changed. He then did all kinds of test, CAT scan, MRI,
and endoscopy all to no avail. I was then sent to another
specialist "best in the country” I was told and he said the
same thing. Medication should not be causing problem.
It was not until I went off all medications and started
seeing Dr. David Lee. I was treated with herbal medicine
and acupuncture that my life changed. It took about two
months and the improvement was so drastic, I finally
have my life back thanks to Dr. David Lee and his herbal
medicine. I truly believe in eastern medicine and herbal
therapy, it gave me my life back.

I came to Dr. lee with pain in my shoulder, arm and
thumb. The pain interrupted my sleep. After 5
treaments, the pain is almost completely gone.
What a relief. The kind and friendly service and the
expertise of Dr. Lee is very much appreciated.

I came to Dr. Lee with neck and shoulder pain,
congestion, and premenopausal anxiety with hot
flashes.
After one treatment, I felt so much better. I continue to
feel so much better and also have normal mobility in my
shoulders.

Dr. David Lee treated me for hot flashes (post-
menopausal) and after just two treatments they have
disappeared and not returned. It's over 4 months a since
I was treated.[and still fine]
Before I came to see Dr. Lee, the right side of my jaw
had hurt. It was painful to open my mouth, and my jaw
would lock. It closed on an average of twice a week for
4-5 years. The dentists’ would say to not worry about it,
“that happens sometimes”. My jaw finally locked shut
for up to six weeks, before I had acupuncture. I came in
to see Dr. Lee, and by the time I finished my first
treatment, up to the time I got home, my jaw opened
enough to make eating food a little more pleasant. I had
about 5 treatments, and my jaw is completely open,
does not hurt to open, and has not locked again. I am
very happy with my results! I will be back again!
Thank You!!!!!

I came to Dr. David Lee because I was having chronic
pain in my lower back, down both my legs and just
below my buttocks. The pain was so bad that I
couldn't walk without a cane and special corset and had
to use an orthopedic cushion that I had purchased to be
able to just sit down in a chair and look at T.V.
Since receiving acupuncture treatments, I am now able
to go about my normal life without the use of a cane,
suchion or most importantly any narcotic medication. I
would say without a doubt that Dr. Lee has helped my
pain by at least 80%, some days even more.
The second most amazing experience of all was during
the same time, I began to lose my hair. I was
devastated, but Dr. Lee came to my rescue once again.
He put me on medication and after only approximately
six weeks I began to see a remarkable improvement and
are definitely back on track with dealing with my daily
concerns and stress.

I started treatment with Dr. Lee due to significant post-
nasal drip, neck, and knee pain, insomnia, and
constipation. The post-nasal drip kept me awake due
to coughing, during the day. I needed to stop my work to
drink water, chew a throat lozenge and /or use my
inhaler. This problem has been progressing for the last
8-10 years; the last 6-9 months have been almost
intolerable.
I was recently exposed to a definite trigger (a strong
perfume). After just 5 treatments the improvement has
been probably 90% with my sinus symptoms. I have
been sleeping through the night since the first
treatment. My neck and knee have had some
improvement as well. Thank you Dr. Lee for all you have
done for me.

After being diagnosed with ovarian cancer and
beginning chemotherapy, I began to experience hot
flashes and night sweats. I was also suffering from
neuropathy. After trying several medications to treat
both [conditions] without much success, a friend
recommended Dr. Lee. I have been coming to him for
several months and no longer suffer from the "hot
flashes." His treatment has also reduced the pain from
the neuropathy and I no longer need to take pain
medication. Dr. Lee's treatment has improved the quality
of my daily life and I would recommend him.

I came in with headaches and neck and back and
feet pain. Had this for many years. Within weeks my
pain has been greatly reduced and my feet pain are
gone. Thank you.

For years I have been going through menopause. My
energy was getting depleted. I was losing lots of sleep
and my hot flashes were bothersome. Three months
ago, I started developing rashes on my arms and legs.
That's when I started feeling sad. Just the look of it was
disgusting and made me feel uneasy.
I finally thought of seeing Dr. Lee for acupuncture as a
last resort. He started treating me with some herbs too.
With a series of acupuncture and herbs, I slowly but
surely, was getting myself back. I started feeling good
again, having less hot flashes, sleeping better at night
and having a lot of energy. This experience has also
made me think about how I should take better care of
myself, and of course, "stop and smell the roses."
What a great experience!
My trip to Dr. Lee's office was prompted by a long-term case of anxiety, which was causing bouts of rather difficult
insomnia. I had been working to fix the anxiety for about two years, both therapy and anti-depressants had been
tried with little effect.
The treatment Dr. Lee proposed involved acupuncture, herbs, and diet. The acupuncture had a very swift positive
effect; I noticed a great improvement the day after a treatment. Over the next few days the anxiety would slowly
return, only to be relieved after the next treatment.
The first few weeks included acupuncture twice a week. After this, I wen to a once a week treatment. Soon I will be
going to a biweekly schedule.
I have experienced great results from Dr. Lee's acupuncture/herb regimen. The anxiety is almost completely gone.
My sleep is very good. The treatment is very effective and painless. I am very happy with the results.
I am especially pleased with the careful attention Dr. Lee pays to his patient. It was great to feel that someone was
actually taking the time to listen and think about your health.
Getting night after night of good sleep is restoring my energy. I once again feel good about life.

I have been diagnosed with osteoarthritis and DISH (Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis.
Often much pain is my knees and back, and I had surgeries. In 2002, I had my right knee replacement and 2004 I
had left knee replacement. In 2007 I had foot surgery, January I had a bunionectomy, hammer toe repair. In May of
same year, I had to have the surgery repeated. I was still in a lot of pain. In September, same year I had a Morton’s
neuroma removed. After all these surgeries I was still in pain.
I started having pain in my knees and back years before surgery. I tried the injection that was being used for arthritis
in the knees. That did not help.
I took medications for years from over-the-counter and prescription medication. Nothing has helped the pain. After
much thought, I decided to forego the prescription and over-the-counter medication. I decided to try acupuncture. I
found Dr. David Lee.
After a few sessions I started to have less and less pain. I am just about pain free. I will continue with the
acupuncture Dr. Lee until I am pain free. Since I started acupuncture I have not taken any pain medication, neither
prescription, nor over-the-counter.
I would recommend acupuncture to anyone suffering with pain that have had no help with medication.

I first came to see David Lee about a month ago. I was
having a hard time sleeping. I’d wake up a few times a
night, mostly around 2 am and then I’d stay awake.
Now after a month of treatment I’ve been getting solid 8
hours of sleep. Life is good again. It feels great to wake
up rested. I couldn’t be happier!

Before I started acupuncuture therapy with Dr. Lee I
experienced a great deal of pain in my lower back. I
was taking large doses of pain medications.
After 5 sessions of acupuncture I am almost free of all
pain in mhy back and have stopped taking pain
medication. It’s a miracle.
I told Dr. Lee of my lifelong allergy symptoms' multi-level impact on my life: unexpected choking during
exposure to summer and autumn pollens, the inability to be comfortable outdoors, poor quality sleep,
runny and/or stuffy nose with dry mouth, etc. and the development of adult asthma.
I woke up a couple of times the night of Dr. Lee's first acupuncture and tea treatment realizing the pure pleasure of
breathing fully and easily during sleep. Wonderful! Within a couple of weeks:
● it was no longer necessary to take allergy or asthma medicine
● my nose remained dry and my mouth wet
● I could take walks outdoors without breathing discomfort or choking attacks
● the tightness in my chest and shortness of breath disappeared
● loss of sleep from allergies was no longer an issue
Despite the challenging allergy season and life circumstances, Dr. Lee's success has been consistent for six months.
Dr. Lee treats the whole person. During each appointment, he courteously and insightfully assesses what I have
experienced since the last visit, the concerns in the moment, and effectively adjusts my treatment. While 4 major life
changes have occured within the last 6 months, the other healthful benefits from Dr. Lee's therapies include:
● My appetite is reduce (usually elevated by stress).
● My olfactory sense is enhanced to a level I have never experienced. Fragrances amazed me when peeling an
orange... the scent of brownies baking in the next room (now I understand why so many like chocolate).
● It is effortless to fall asleep and stay asleep.
● My blood pressure has returned to normal.
● In light of uncommon stresses, I've retained an integrated sense of internal balance, health, and well-being.
It is my pleasure to recommend Dr. Lee's practice highly and without reservation. My experience has shown that Dr.
Lee is a caring, gifted practitioner. He has the ability to get an authentic sense of the patient's needs coupled with
the expertise to recognize and administer the remedy. Please come and decide for yourself!
