In December 2006 when a car drove into me while stationary in my Honda 90 causing the motorbike to fall on my left leg, which contains a metal plate and 12 screws, ankle to shin (half way up my leg). This caused me trauma and extensive pain and swelling on my already damaged leg and right knee. The hospital said I had a meniscus tear and wanted me to have an operation – instead I had about 15 months of acupuncture (often 40 needles at a time) and the hospital doctors were amazed at the improvement, not then needing an operation and had to admit acupuncture works!
3 THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
1. The effects are not always instant
Sometimes our treatments can have an immediate positive effect but it can take a bit longer for you to feel the benefits.
We offer a natural rebalancing medicine rather than an invasive one and you must have patience, especially for chronic problems. Your doctor will give you an honest assessment of how quickly you should feel results.
2. Healing needs your body to react
Healing is not a linear process and sometimes a client feels temporarily worse before improvement as the body reacts to the treatment. This is normal but of course this may cause concern. If you are worried about anything then we are always here to answer your questions.
3. Raw herbs are very bitter but good for you
We wish we could tell you otherwise but if you are prescribed raw herbs then you should be prepared. The taste can be very bitter. They are however the most potent medicine for your health. Try to visualise the medicinal effects and hold your nose! You can add honey but honestly the best thing to do is just drink it as quickly as you can.'
