I originally went to see Cindi for treatment for Bell's Palsy. This is a delightful condition (which generally resolves itself) where one side of the face is paralyzed. It can be quite painful for some people, but for me it was mostly annoying.
Thanks to Cindi's treatment, my BP very quickly resolved itself after only 3 weeks (many BP patients continue to get worse for the first 6 weeks). Cindi was fantastic and very willing to listen to me, as I did NOT want any e-stim treatments on my face. Cindi assured me it was safe, but I had heard that e-stim caused problems for some BP patients. She was great-- did not pressure me about it.
But the most wonderful thing is that Cindi cured the sinus disease I had suffered from for over 20 years. 20 years of 6-8 sinus and ear infections every year. After only a couple of months of treatments, my symptoms disappeared! Cindi is amazing! So kind and caring.
I did not realize how much pain and discomfort I had been suffering on a daily basis until it was gone! After just a couple of treatments I remember exclaiming, ""I can breathe through my left nostril again! I didn't know I was so congested!"" It was wonderful-- I started sleeping better immediately. I was able to stop taking all the sinus meds I had been on for years. It's been more 2 years now, and I haven't had a single sinus infection.
I highly. highly recommend Cindi. She really knows what she's doing. I didn't know what to expect from the treatments and was kind of nervous at first, but they are so incredibly relaxing I usually fall asleep. I will admit that the needles placed on my nose and cheeks did sting a little going in but just for a sec. NONE of the others were painful AT ALL. I did have to make some dietary changes too, but it was so worth it.
If you're nervous about acupuncture, I can assure you IT WORKS and Cindi is the BEST. It is a little expensive, but so is being sick and on antibiotics all the time!
Not only is Cindi amazingly skilled, she is always willing to listen and is flexible. I mentioned at the beginning of a treatment that I was coming down with an ear infection (after 20 years I know the feeling well). Well, Cindi changed her treatment plan in a flash to treat my ear infection and 20 minutes later, I had absolutely NO ear pain! Zip, nada, nothing! It was as if it had never happened!
Go and see Cindi. You will not regret it-- she is a miracle worker!
