Acupuncture for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

During the one year span in which I sought relief from stress and sinus congestion, Monica provided consistent treatments that effectively addressed my ailments. These were administered in a supportive and diligent manner which enabled me to relax both during, and after, our sessions. Consequently I was able to derive extended benefits from her treatments. Thank you, Monica.

Three years ago my husband and I decided to try and have a baby. I had never been pregnant before and I was very close to turning 30 so I had no idea how long it might take. I was already seeing Monica for other issues so I figured I might as well boost up my fertility while I was at it. Three months later I came home with the news that we were going to have a little baby of our own. Everything went really smoothly throughout my pregnancy until the very end.

Ten days before my due date I found out that my baby was Frank Breech. I was panicked, this was a total shock to us. I called Monica as soon as I left the doctor's office which at the time was very close to closing on a Friday night. Monica explained that because of how far along I was that the chances of turning the baby in time were low but she still saw me and she even did it on her own time. She went way beyond the call of duty to help me out. Unfortunately I went into labor the next day before we could get the baby moved. I had to have a c-section after all but I will never forget what she did for me and how caring she was. She did a great job and now I have a wonderful healthy three year old daughter.
Thank you Monica!

I went to see Monica when I became fed up with my regular medical doctor's solution to my PMS. Wanting to get the root of the problem, I decided to try acupuncture for the first time. I was surprised and relieved when Monica sat down with me on our first visit and asked me more questions about my health, history and lifestyle than my family doctor of 8 years! She guided me through the process, explained the issues, and told me what to expect during and after the treatments. By the time my next period came, I had no pain or symptoms for the first time ever! I was so excited I told all my friends. It was nothing short of a miracle for me. Her expertise, patience, understanding and genuine concern for my well-being was a refreshing change from traditional medicines.

I was in a car accident while on vacation which gave me a terrible bone bruise on my knee. It hurt to walk or just bend my knee. It wasn’t getting any better until it was treated with acupuncture by Monica. I’ve been treated by Monica for other things and already was impressed by her thorough approach to treating her patients.

Her evaluation is focused on you and your needs and she does everything to get you back to the place you want to be. After every treatment, my knee felt significantly better and within a few weeks, I was back to normal. She advised me on things to do on my own to speed up recovery, and paired her acupuncture with electrostimulation therapy. She also recommended some amazing Chinese Herbal Medicine pads to help with blood flow and overall recovery.

Her realistic positivity is so helpful in the healing process, and I was so amazed at the recovery my knee has made within a few short weeks of seeing her. Monica is dedicated to her patients and her work, always explaining her overall process so you understand her approach. I truly feel like I have found an advocate with Monica. Thank you!!

For three years my husband & I kept trying for our second child. The times we did conceive, I was unable to sustain the pregnancies. I then reconnected with Monica who I had seen a couple of years earlier for a shoulder injury that no physician could successfully treat.

After going through fertility treatments, as my last ditch effort I went back to Monica - something I should I have done in the first place! Within 6 months of seeing Monica, I was pregnant. More importantly, I was able to sustain the pregnancy and have a beautiful baby girl as a result. Monica provided me with outstanding physical and emotional support throughout my journey. She is a true healer.

Symptoms of fatigue and weakness had set in my body from overwork and embodiment of emotional stress. I experienced profound response to my acupuncture treatments and herbs and my health improved drastically.

Monica's compassion and patience toward my condition and her understanding of Chinese medicine restored my energy (chi) and brought about a greater awareness of creating balance between yin and yang in my life. I continue to incorporate all aspects of Chinese medicine as a preventative measure and continue to reap great rewards in terms of my health, mental attitude and emotional well being.

Dear Monica,

During my stay in Seattle last December you treated me for my endometriosis while I was in between cycles for IVF treatment. You also prescribed some Chinese herbs for me to take with me when I returned to France. Well, I have great news and want to extend to you my deepest appreciation for all of your help.

My CA125 (blood test marker for endometriosis) dropped from the 300's down to the 50's. I think the benefit of the acupuncture treatments and Chinese herbs are difficult to dismiss. My IVF cycle resulted in a positive, and as of today, I am seven weeks pregnant, complete with healthy measurements and a strong heartbeat on ultrasound.

I really think that your help in reducing my endometriosis has been a significant factor to the success of this IVF treatment. Thank you very much!

Monica: I slept ALL night thanks to your magic! (Acupuncture combined with Chinese herbs) Thanks, see you next week.

When I have been in the early stages of a cold, Monica has treated me and collapsed the cold to be short and mild. It is a great relief to know the misery of a cold, that used to seem inevitable, can -- with Monica's special acupuncture treatments -- be derailed and I can get back to an active life.
